In-N-Out hikes prices thanks to California’s new $20 minimum wage

In-N-Out is beefing up its notoriously cheap prices to keep up with California’s new $20 state minimum wage at fast food restaurants.

In Los Angeles County, a double-double burger combo at the low-cost burger chains now goes for $11.44 — a $0.76 increase from last year, KTLA reported.

In San Francisco’s tourist-heavy Fishermans Wharf location, a double-double burger coupled with french fries and drink costs $13.63 after taxes.

Less hungry customers would still have to shell out $7.50 for the double patty without the sides or beverage, KRON4 reported.

The same meal with just a single patty is not much cheaper — a hamburger meal is priced at $11.03, while the cheeseburger one racks up $11.57 after tax.

Although still on the rise, prices are significantly cheaper just outside San Francisco.

In Daly City, located in the San Francisco Bay Area, a double-double with fries and a drink costs $11.52 — more than $2 less than at Fishermans Wharf.

A cheeseburger meal and hamburger meal cost $9.54 and $8.99 after tax, respectively, in Daly City.

An In-N-Out spokesperson confirmed to KRON4 that the price jumps are directly related to the $20 minimum wage hike that went into effect in April.

Fast-food restaurants across the Golden State have since slashed nearly 10,000 jobs, according to the California Business and Industrial Alliance.

Rubios California Grill, known for its fish tacos, closed 48 of its nearly 134 locations at the end of May  before filing for bankruptcy in June.

Beverages at Starbucks stores in California were 50 cents more expensive after April 1, while Taco Bell raised menu prices by 3%.
