    On their own? Eh.

    Well done, animal style with chopped chilis?? Hell yea!

    They’re OK if you eat them immediately. Otherwise they have a dry, grainy texture.

    Not worth it. Just order a second burger and you’ll be happier.

    They’re unique in that they have the same taste and consistency as the paper they’re served in.

    Worst fast food fries you can get.

    Covered in the sauce, cheese and grilled onions they’re good.

    But as a straight up fry or just with ketchup I genuinely think they’re the worst in the game.

    They’re really fresh, never frozen, but that’s part of the problem. Potatoes really need to be frozen or a lengthy multiple fry process to get them right. Most place just opt to freeze them because it’s easier to have lots on hand that way and it achieves the perfect texture anyways so there’s no downside.

    In n out prides themselves on being fresh and for the veggies on the burger it’s incredible. One of the few places I reliably get fresh cold veggies on a hot burger. For the fries though it’s their downfall. They should really freeze them so they don’t taste like dry grainy twigs.

    I think In-N-Out burgers are amazing for the price, but their fries are just okay. I like their animal style fries better than their regular ones.

    Not a fan. They have a very starchy taste.

    Trash the burgers are top notch though

    Hard pass, their fries are hot garbage IMO

    Order a double double animal and get fries from any other fast food place

    I’m a fan of INO, but I think their fries suck. They never seem salty enough, near flavorless. I always doctor mine up, and I always dine in because INO doesn’t tend to be very good once it starts cooling off.

    My dad taught me this: I order my fries with chopped chillies, chopped raw onion, and three packs of spread on the side. Then I squeeze lemon juice on them and sprinkle some black pepper on, and add spread as I go so I don’t get dry spots. The lemon juice helps the pepper stick and does some nice things to the chopped chillie flavor.

    People swear by animal fries, but I feel ridiculous paying $5 for _fries_ and they never seem to put enough spread on them. My way doesn’t cost any extra than regular fries.

    It’s interesting that so many people don’t like them but they make them fresh on site. People prefer McDonalds chemical fries to actual fresh fried taters. They are definitely better if you get a fresh batch though, so it’s hit or miss. I’ll admit.

  13. Nay! I LOVE In n Out burger an visit every time in SoCal, but I’ve stopped adding fries to my order long ago. They are just not for me. McDonald’s or even BK fries are much better.

    I don’t like them. They aren’t horrible, just no good flavor and just…. Bleh.

    Worst. Fries. Ever.

    Here’s how to get good fries at In-N-Out.

    1) Order fries with no salt. Ask for an extra tray and tray liner.
    2) Dump the fries on the tray and spread them out. Allow them to cool for half an hour.
    3) Wash your hands. Place the fries back into the container. Bring the fries back to the counter.
    4) Order your burger. Ask them to fry the fries a second time. Tell them they can salt them this time. (They won’t do this. But if they did, you’d now have decent fries.)

    Fries need to be fried twice with a cool-down in between. The method I described won’t get you all the way to pomme frite nirvana. But it’s better than what they’re currently doing.

    Well maybe I’m crazy but I hav no problem with them on their own. I hate crinkle cut and wedges more than any thin cut fries

  17. Best fries ever! I don’t care if people think that’s wrong.

  18. stayzero

    The burgers are good but I don’t care for the fries. I get a bag a plain Lays potato chips at a store if I have In and Out and skip the fries.

    They could be so much better. Maybe just a bit thicker? Don’t know but I’ve never been impressed.

  20. excel958

    They’re bad because they’re not twice fried

  21. VidProphet123

    Never order in and out fries unless you are doing animal style. They taste like cardboard and they seem to take pride in how crap they are.

  22. Crotean

    That are absolute shit, probably the worst fast food fries period.

  23. Soft-Detail-8398

    Those fries are about as exciting as a communion wafer!!! They always remind me of chewing a piece of Styrofoam just blahaaa

  24. Ok_Potato_9554

    That’s gonna be a hard nay for me, dawg.

  25. Novel_End1895

    The fries are not good at all! No flavor.
