THE COLONY, Texas – After 105 years of business and more than 330 locations across the country, White Castle is finally arriving in the Lone Star State.
What we know:
White Castle leadership and officials from The Colony, including Mayor Richard Boyer, broke ground on its first-ever Texas location at Grandscape on Tuesday.
The groundbreaking featured spatula-shaped shovels, a ceremonial “sprinkling of the onions” on the future grill site, and servings of White Castle’s signature sliders.
Located at 5420 Destination Drive, the company noted that it’s their first location in Texas after 105 years in business.
The building will be over 3,400 square feet, and is expected to bring about 70 job to the community.
What they’re saying:
“As we look ahead to our first White Castle in Texas, we can’t wait to start satisfying cravings,” Jamie Richardson, White Castle’s Chief Marketing Officer, told FOX 4’s Kedric McKnight.
