The event will be a grand opening celebration for members of the community, elected leaders, and the public and all are invited. It is the world's largest White Castle location and comes after months of anticipation.

The 4,567-square-foot restaurant includes indoor and outdoor seating and 2 drive-thru lanes. The restaurant has seating for 72 indoors and 56 outdoors. It is the largest free-standing White Castle in the world and marks the brand’s first return to Florida since operating four restaurants in Miami in the 1960s.

“We are committed to bringing hot and tasty White Castle food to Central Florida,” said Mike Guinan, Vice President of Operations Services for White Castle.

“Our plan is to roll this out thoughtfully with our family owned business emphasis on quality."

CDC guidelines and local guidelines will be enforced in the new location for the safety of guests and employees at White Castle, in observance of COVID-19.

White Castle previously opened a ghost kitchen in Orlando and had third-party delivery options, but changed course after unprecedented demand. The new location will eventually be running at 24 hours a day in one of Florida's most popular tourist destinations. New options on the menu include the Impossible slider and the 1921 Slider, named after the foundation of White Castle - America's fast food restaurant.

The new White Castle location generated over 200 new jobs for the area including management and employee positions.
