Orlando, Fla. — The wait is almost over for fans of White Castle sliders in Central Florida.
Florida’s only White Castle location will hold its grand opening on Monday, May 3 at 8 a.m. according to a news release.
It’s located at the Village at O-Town West mixed-use development, near the attractions.
The Orlando castle will have two drive thru lanes, seating for 64 indoors and 56 outdoors and a sleek, industrial-style design.

As the largest free-standing White Castle restaurant in the world, the famous burger joint hired 120 people for part-time food service and management positions.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony on May 3 will mark the brand’s return to Florida since operating four restaurants in Miami in the 1960s.

This is Harry Blackledge. Ten years ago, he made the Facebook page ‘Bring White Castle to Florida’. And @WhiteCastle noticed. Now, they’re building the largest freestanding franchise in the whole world here in Orlando. Story coming on Orlando’s News at Noon on @WDBONews! pic.twitter.com/RCTv4jh8OT
