#73584 — Oakland In-N-Out serves its last Double-Double Burger Sunday in historic restaurant closure

OAKLAND, Calif. (KRON) — It’s a sad day for In-N-Out lovers in Oakland. 
The popular California-based burger chain has officially closed its only 
Oakland location on Sunday night.

Starting Monday, there will be no other place in Oakland where you can 
order a double-double cheeseburger with animal fries.

In January, In-N-Out decided to close its Oakland restaurant, located at 
8300 Oakport St., because of “issues of ongoing crime,” KRON4 reported 
earlier this year.

The closure is a historic one for the company.

The Oakland location is the first to close in the company’s 75-year 
history, In-N-Out Chief Operating Officer Denny Warnick said.

The restaurant was open until 10 p.m. for dining room customers, according 
to In-N-Out’s website. The drive-thru was open until 1 a.m.

“It sucks that it’s closing down. The crime rate is going up. It’s sad, 
but it’s for the safety of the customers. In-N-Out has always been big 
with safety for people,” said In-N-Out employee Francis Panopio. “It’s 
just sad that it’s closing down, but you got to move on.”

Panopio worked at the Oakland location for about a year and has been with 
In-N-Out for 15 years.

The closest In-N-Out locations are in San Leandro and Alameda.

     It is sad. But there are other In-N-Out options a few miles away.
Harder for those without transportation, but just a mild inconvenience
for anyone with access to a car.

	I keep reading that the crime rate is going down, but here we have a
company closing "For the safety of the customers", that would mean In-N-Out
was a cause of the crime. Because if it is a high crime area it will be a
high crime area when In-N-Out leave.

	Could it be poor sales? 

	After all, you want high crime areas, take Beverly and Raparts in Los
Angeles where even the cops are criminals and it is the site of Tommys
burgers open 24 hours. But there is a line there at all hours.
