Franklin is getting its own taste of the famed West Coast burger chain this week, as In‑N‑Out Burger confirmed it will open a new restaurant on Wednesday in the Berry Farms area. The spot sits beside the company’s new eastern operations center and adds one more high-profile option to Williamson County’s dining mix as the brand rolls across Middle Tennessee.
According to WKRN, the Franklin restaurant will open on Wednesday at 1951 Double Double Drive. When the doors unlock, it will become the fourth In‑N‑Out in Middle Tennessee, joining locations in Antioch, Lebanon, and Murfreesboro.
Williamson Source reports that Justin Temple will manage the new Franklin store and that hiring is still underway, with a starting wage of $17.50 per hour. The outlet also notes that most In‑N‑Out locations in Tennessee are expected to operate from about 10:30 a.m. to 1:00 a.m., stretching to 1:30 a.m. on Friday and Saturday for the late-night crowd.
In‑N‑Out’s regional push
Right next door to the new burger joint, In‑N‑Out is building a 100,000‑square‑foot Eastern Territory operations center that company leaders say will create jobs and serve as the chain’s Tennessee hub, as detailed by AP News. The Franklin buildout is part of the company’s broader push into the region, with Berry Farms serving as a key beachhead in that expansion.
What to expect on opening day
The Franklin restaurant’s layout is set up with a single drive‑thru lane, indoor seating for 74 guests, and a covered patio that can hold about 54 more, a configuration meant to balance dine‑in demand with drive‑thru service, Williamson Source reported. Customers looking for the latest on operating hours, hiring, or grand‑opening details can also keep an eye on In‑N‑Out’s official locations page for updates.
