White Castle, American restaurant chain in Saint Paul, US.
White Castle is a burger chain in Saint Paul featuring square-shaped mini hamburgers that are steamed with onions on specialized cooking surfaces. These are served on soft buns and make up the core of their menu.
The chain was founded in 1921 in Wichita, Kansas as the first fast-food hamburger chain in the United States. It established practices and standards that influenced how the modern quick-service food industry developed.
The restaurant represents a style of late-night dining that has become part of American pop culture across generations. The small burgers have become a symbol for quick, affordable meals that people seek out at different times of day.
The Saint Paul location offers a drive-through service and stays open until 2 AM for late-night visits. Credit cards are accepted and you can access the full menu through the drive-through window.
Each burger patty has five holes that allow the meat to steam through completely without needing to be flipped during cooking. This design has been a signature feature of their preparation method since the chain was founded.
