In-N-Out Burger — Restaurant in Covina

Even though this In-N-Out is THE In-N-Out to rule all In-N-Outs, located adjacent to In-N-Out University, this location is set up just like every other location (only a tad bigger and with one other surprise). Walk in and there are you face the counter topped with three cash registered. As you walk forward, the restrooms will be on your right (with the men's on the left and women's on the right should you turn into the alcove) and the seating area (ever so slightly bigger than your standard In-N-Out) will be the entire left of the store. You order, making sure to get a Neapolitan shake with your Double-Double and head to your left to fill up the ketchup tubs where you'll find pickled peppers before taking a seat on the benches which will be just in front of you. Don't worry about the soda fountain, which will be to your left, along the wall that's adjacent to the drive-thru, as you have a milk shake coming. Back to those peppers I briefly mentioned. Pickled peppers, you ask. Hell yes. I mean, they're not that great but they're there and that is different. It will make you doubt the existence of the secret menu, it will. You'll fill up a little ketchup tub with four peppers (worry not, you'll only eat two of them). When they call your order (Number 79, I believe), you go to the counter and find yourself a seat...but you can't have both a window and a booth. Should you want a window seat, you'll have to choose from the hard seats that are set up as two-seater tables, some which are bundled with others. You could eat outside, if you're feeling adventurous, but don't you prefer a/c? Yes, you do. Upon finishing your burger, you should toss the garbage either by the secondary entrance or by the ketchup dispenser.

That is the restaurant layout and your experience, neither of which ever changes. Nevertheless, once you walk out the door, the ritual is over so, instead of heading straight to your vehicle, you may walk across the surprisingly large parking lot to the Company Store and buy your vehicle a nice soda cup...

View In-N-Out I've ever been to are bad. However this one right here, is better then probably any I've ever been to. This In-N-Out makes everything so perfect it taste better then any other In-N-Out. I swear it's like their Coke even taste better because the food is perfect every single time. I live nowhere near this particular location however my parents grew up right around the corner from here oh, so I still have family in the area. And even if I have a visit out there for dinner or lunch with my family, no matter what, I will still run through the drive-through and grab a burger and fries at this In-N-Out on my way home. It doesn't matter if I just ate dinner. It's that good I have to make sure I never ignore the opportunity to hit this particular location. About 2 years ago (I own a small home renovations co) I was doing a few jobs around the corner in the neighborhood below. I had one job, and then a couple neighbors liked my work so well they asked me to do their homes after. Therefore I worked in this neighborhood for about three months. And let me tell you I love the fact that every day, literally almost every day LOL, I went through this drive-thru on my way home. I'm not sure what it is, but whoever the current district manager is of the territory, you make sure you never let this particular location Manager Go. And make sure to keep this crew of workers together as much as you possibly can. Not only do they make some of the best food. But that drive-through gets incredibly crowded, and they run right through it. It's not uncommon for there to be 16 or 17 cars in front of me in the Drive-Thru, and I'll wait sometimes less than 15 minutes even. Probably even a lot less than that. Maybe this seems a little exaggerated or over-the-top, but I have absolutely zero connection to this in and out, I know nobody here, it is just that good. Every worker who's ever been apart of what a my meals deserves a pat on the back in this location. You guys definitely earned this...

I simply do not have the words to describe this place. The 40s style paper hats worn friendliest staff I have encountered at a burger place by far The absolute best burger and shakes at the best price. If that weren’t enough, the workers were bringing extra sauce and ketchup to my table and picking up my trash! I had to look around to make sure that I didn’t see Marty McFly and/or Doc Brown had somehow transported me to the 50s with them. The only reality check was that I wasn’t paying 50s prices. As late as 2020 I was still able to feed four people with shakes and animalized fries for $20 and while I admit the price has increased (along with everything else in the economy), it still the cheapest high quality fast food you can get. I actually wanted to tip these folks but wasn’t given the opportunity on the card reader, nor did I see a tip jar here.(had to leave some change on the table) Contrast that to buying a latte or slice of pizza for $12 and then given the choice of tipping your 50%, 75%, or 95% (its never about 18% to 20% anymore) and you feel compelled to tip at least 75% as you are being watched only to have the barista or server to shake her head in disgust. I come from far away to visit this place and its worth it. I have yet to me...
