The ever-popular and ever-growing In-and-Out Burger still wants to build a restaurant in the Portland area, even after an independent hearings officer denied its application in 2022 to erect a drive-through at 10565 SW Beaverton-Hillsdale Highway in unincorporated Washington County. The denial stemmed from the restaurant’s proposed location between a Commercial Business District, which allows drive-throughs, and an Office Commercial District, which seldom does. Concerns focused on parking and driving aisles interfering with traffic in the Office Commercial district, but In-and-Out, which appealed the decision in May 2023 to the Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals, suggested a transportation management plan to prevent customers from interfering with high traffic could address the concerns.
There is also a plan to set up a restaurant in the Bridgeport Village mall near Tualatin
