There was an article written on our websites this week gloating about Boise receiving an In-N-Out, the first of its kind in the entire state. It got me thinking...

I WANT AN IN-N-OUT IN MISSOULA! And then it got me thinking some more...

I WANT A LOT OF FAST FOOD CHAINS IN MISSOULA.... no wait... I NEED A LOT OF FAST FOOD CHAINS IN MISSOULA.

Here are the top 7 fast food chains we need in Missoula. Let me know what I omitted, I know you will.

Right off the bat, I need to go with In-N-Out. We have Five Guys, BK, McDonald's, etc, but we don't have In-N-Out. Though I think it's slightly overrated, it's still incredible and we would dig an In-N-Out in Missoula.

The best chicken fingers you can find and their Cane's Sauce is absolutely, positively phenomenal. Add in that fluffy texas toast and you have yourself something special.

I die on the Raisin' Cane's hill, but my friends from the South are huge Zaxby's supporters. The more chicken fast food the better.

A Midwest staple. Culver's is the king in fast food burger joints. I love In-N-Out, and the rest but you can't beat Culver's Butterburger and a concrete mixer.

It's kind of cheating. It's not a typical fast-food restaurant. It's more of a mega-store made from heaven. Last night, I had a friend tell me "It's the place I miss most." Apparently, we need a Buc-ees. There actually expanding so maybe Missoula can receive one. 

Shake Shack

Shake Shack is always a must-have when strolling through the Salt Lake Airport. Greasy burgers, delicious shakes. Say no more.

Give me more greasy (steak)burgers and shakes. Give me all the greasy fast food chains! Plus they have sweet vintage-looking dining rooms.

Whataburger

If I added In-n-Out, Culver's, Shake Shack, etc then I suppose I need to add Whataburger. Fun fact: I haven't tried Whataburger, so I'm doing this entry solely off of popularity.

What did I miss? Let me know! Message me in our mobile app or Facebook page.
