White Castle

As someone who grew up with White Castle, seeing it return to Florida after 50 years is nothing short of amazing! This Orlando location does the iconic brand justice, serving up those legendary sliders just as we remember them--steamed to perfection with that signature soft bun and deliciously savory taste.The restaurant itself is clean and modern, with an open kitchen where you can watch your burgers being made fresh right before your eyes. It's not the biggest space, but it's comfortable enough to enjoy your meal without feeling cramped.One of the coolest touches? If you order a large number of sliders (and let's be honest, who can stop at just a few?), they come in a nostalgic lunchbox-style package--perfect for sharing or just indulging in that classic White Castle experience.Service is overall very good, and despite the constant flow of customers, the wait time is quite reasonable. The staff keeps things moving efficiently while still being friendly and accommodating.Pricing is about what you'd expect, maybe a little more than some other fast food spots, but for the quality and nostalgia factor, it's well worth it. If you follow the White Castle brand, the closest restaurant is around Tennessee, so if you're anywhere near the Orlando area, it's certainly worth your while to pick up the iconic burgers and fries.Welcome back, White Castle! Orlando is lucky to have you.

I went to Orlando for Labor Day weekend with friends and arrived a day early. I could not believe when I saw White Castle just a few miles from the resort. When I was young living in Ohio we ate White Castle regularly.I arrived between lunch time and dinner and the drive-thru was wrapped around the building so I decided to go in and ordered to go. The line was pretty long inside. It didn't take too long to order but the wait for the order was very long for a fast food restaurant. The long wait time is why I rated four stars.I ordered burgers and chicken sandwiches. I love the burgers with the fried onions and the soft bun. I tried the chicken sandwich for the first time and they were delicious with a little kick. If you know you know! I'll be back the next time I visit Orlando.

I got the Belgian waffle sandwich and my friend got their famous sliders. It's definitely much more flavored than the closest one to us in Las Vegas. We did a drive through so didn't really get to enjoy the ambiance; however, the service was quick and at ease. Cost is fair for the amount we ordered

The food was totally delicious. The burgers were hot and prepared just right. The service was good. The only complaint that I have is with the AI automated ordering system. It needs some work.

I'm deducting a star because the app let me choose pick-up via drive-thru, but this Crave & Go location does not have a drive-thru.Driving home to Tampa from a pool day in Orlando, I was not happy about having to park & go inside wearing my swimsuit & coverup. The drive-thru option for online ordering should be completely removed here because it's not available at the flagship location across the parking lot either. And while I'm whining, I also struggled with my cart timing-out while I was browsing the app poolside, so I had to re-build my order at least 5 times. These minor issues were enough of a hassle that I might take my chances with waiting in the drive-thru next time, if I don't have a coupon to use online.But this time I did have a coupon, and my food was ready at my chosen pick-up time. The lady at the counter was friendly and gave me extra sauces. I love that their Ranch is Hidden Valley! My large Peace Tea was only prepared after I arrived, which I thought was a nice touch so the "light ice" I'd requested wouldn't melt before I picked up my order. All of my food was hot & tasty, and I was surprised how well the left-over sliders re-heated the next day in my microwave.Now that I know the situation here, I'll considering ordering online again if I have a coupon or if the lines at the larger flagship restaurant are long. Since I find myself on I-4 often at random times, I'm sure I'll stop here again. I can see myself craving a slider or three after a concert to keep me going on my drive back to Tampa.

The Crave & Go location is at 11815 Glass House Lane, Suite 120 which is right behind the Orlando Flagship Castle. This location serves the same items that can be ordered in the drive thru or inside the quick serve restaurant. Service is to-go only and must be ordered online. Daily hours for White Castle Crave & Go are currently 4 PM to 3 AM weekdays so no lunch service. Friday and Saturday 12 PM to 5 AM, Sunday 12 PM to 4 AM.Pros:1. Ordering through the app you can enter a pickup time so you can walk in and collect your order at the desired future time.2. If you order through the app you can select BOGO specials and coupons. Note you need to select the item with the coupon attached as you will see menu items listed twice. White Castle Craver Nation emails alert you of specials.Cons: My food items were mostly cold even though I arrived at the pickup counter at the time I selected when ordering. I had selected a 'Smoky Jo' under the app's new and featured craves menu. This is a Sloppy Joe slider topped with smoked cheddar cheese and crispy onions. I was so excited to try this but it was cold, not like just taken from the refrigerator but to me it seemed the food was prepared way before it was placed in my bag. The flavor was there but cold food is...not what I wanted.Ditto for the 'Mac n cheese nibblers.' These are described as creamy cheddar cheese and macaroni coated with a crispy batter. The macaroni covered with cold greasy batter turned these into carb heavy belly bombs. Yuck...even with the $1 off coupon I would not order these again.My slider was hot and normal but when I went in and said my name they just handed me my bag. There is no self service napkins or condiments and I had to ask for napkins. They were not busy as I was the only customer picking up but my request for napkins seemed to inconvenience the staff.There is no real ambiance as it is meant to be a quick in and out for the WC Slider Nation. A good idea so you don't waste fuel in a drive up however you do have to park, get out of your car and possibly face weather conditions. The crowds seem to have left White Castle and moved over to the newly opened neighbor restaurant 'Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers.'

I will immediately say that the service is excellent! The ambiance is your basic fast food restaurant. Not bad though, maybe a little crowded, but not unexpected because it is White Castle after all. The food is great. I have only ever had the frozen sliders from the store. It is another thing entirely to enjoy these crave-able little burger gems fresh! Why four stars? Because it takes a while to get your food. They individually box every single one of the sliders into their own little containers. The staff is doing their best, but you can tell the demand is too great and difficult to keep up. Definitely a recommend, but be ready to wait unless you put in the order online.

First time picking up from this location after ordering through the app. Usually order at the main restaurant. The food took about 10 minutes longer than the time given on app but we weren't in any hurry so didn't mind. Guy at register was nice. Not much to say about this location, it's just a mobile order Pick-Up location.

Had a craving so had to stop by White Castle after work to take home a case of little burgers. I got the pack with hamburgers, cheeseburgers and jalapeno cheeseburgers. They were delicious. Ordered on the app where I had a coupon that kept giving me an error message but did apply eventually.Watched the fry robot they have. He was cool. My order was done early.I like the separate pick up storefront. It's clean and efficient.

My family and I enjoyed White Castle. The impossible burger and the bacon cheese were our favs. We also loved the onions rings and the bacon and cheddar fries. We sat outside on the patio and it was so cute and felt amazing!! The cashier was very nice as well.
