Whats walking distance from IP?

[Broke Rounder]

Hello, I will be staying at the IP next month. First trip to Vegas in 10 years. Mapquest.com said Bellagio was withen walking distance, but I couldnt find if there was an In & Out burger or a Fat Burger close by. Also, is Wynn withen walken distance? Thanks

IP is at a spot on the strip that's a pretty easy walk to most of the properties at the north end of the strip, including the Wynn (as long as it's not NBA All Star weekend). In&Out is a hike from there and is not walkable. Don't know about Fat Burger, except that it pales in comparison. Never stayed at IP but I like their sportsbook.

IP is a short walk from:

Harrahs
Caesars Palace
Mirage
TI
Venetian
Osheas
Flamingo

Longer (but not bad) walk to

Wynn
Frontier
Ballys
Bellagio
Paris

Fairly long walk to:

Planet Hollywood

LONG walk to:

Monte Carlo
Excalibur
MGM Grand
Tropicana
Circus Circus
Riviera
Stratosphere

In & Out is accross the freeway by Tropicana. Pretty long walk. Not sure about Fatburger.

In and Out is basically unwalkable. Fatburger is closer to MGM...in or near that Hawaiian center. Its a pretty far walk...past Planet Hollywood. If you are already there or at MC or MGM, its close. Unless it closed. I've never been there. In N Out > Fatburger.

FWIW, the best/cheapest food near to IP is easily the Chipotle in between Harrahs and Casino Royale.

Thanks guys for all the help here. I guess I will take a cab to In & Out burger. Dumb question, would I just have the cabby go thru the drive thru or would I just have him drop me off, eat there, and get a new cab for a ride back to IP. Whats my best bet here guys? Sorry for the lame questions lol.

[rgold79]

Have him drop you off. A cabbie running the meter while in the drive thru line is way too expensive. Cabs in Vegas are a scam.

[LasVegasMichael]

In N Out is not like McDonald's. The drive thru can often take 20-30 min as everything is to order.

Don't forget animal style! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

BTW: Fatburger is extremely overrated and overpriced. In-N-Out is vastly superior and a much better value.

If you are going to the expense of getting a cab in order to buy a burger, you may want to consider going to the Burger Bar at Mandalay (actually in the corridor connecting Mandalay and the Luxor). You can get In-N-Out at a lot of places, but the Burger Bar is unique to Las Vegas and worth trying (many very tasy and unique burgers).

[LasVegasMichael]

Many people from the midwest and east coast consider INO unique to Vegas since it is only on the west coast, and that mey not get out to Cal or AZ that often.

Having said that, though, the Burger bar is definately worth trying, but also pretty pricey.

Here in Memphis there is no In & Out burger, thats why im craving one so bad. I havent had one since I was in AZ in 2001. But thanks for the tips, I will just have the cabbie drop me off. And, I did not know about the monorail, I was going to pay a cabbie to take me from airport to IP! Thanks again!
