I've been scarfing White Castle sliders since I was a wee turd and my dad introduced me to their greasy oniony delectability when I was knee high to a grasshopper. Even now, if I am aware there is a WC in the vicinity, I will drive out of my way to grab a sack full. Of course, these days they are even better than in my childhood as they offer more alternatives than just slider or cheese slider. Gotta have that Double Jalapeño Burger doubled with crinkle Fries and soda, and savor them all the way home. True to form, while in Keyport, NJ, last weekend, I checked and discovered a White Castle not 6 miles away on Route 9. It was about 10 minutes away, and though it lengthened my home bound route, I was totally game. I found it (despite its tricky entrance driveway right off the highway), ordered my standard double double, and slowly indulged all the way back to Pennsylvania. By now, I know how to hold the cardboard sleeve it comes in so that I don't touch the burger and simply squeeze the holder enough to expose what my bite can handle. Easy and clean down to the last chomp. This was strictly drive through, so I can't comment on the inside of the building. However, service was prompt and professional, with a little bit of whimsy from the cashier who seemed to enjoy his job immensely. Although I was pretty much sated from before in Keyport, I found out a long time ago that I always have room for White Castle. May it always be so. read more

DO NOT GET THE CRISPY CHICKEN SLIDERS!!!!!!!!!!! Went here a few weeks ago and got those. AND THEY PUT THE CHICKEN COCK IN MY FUCKING SANDWICH. When my son bit into it, a large load of chicken blood squirted out, proving that these were not only chicken cocks, but UNDERCOOKED CHICKEN COCKS. My son started shitting straight blood a few hours later and eventually blood was leaking out of his eyes and belly button and he later died. Don't go here unless you like chicken dih read more

White Castle - the piece of chicken in my sandwich - Burgers Near Me - South Amboy, New Jersey

I do love their burgers, not sure why, but these are the only fast food burgers that I eat. Service was a bit slow, but there was only a cashier and one worker. We ordered breakfast sliders, which were ok and burgers. Would definitely go back because White Castle is a favorite childhood memory read more

It's been 7-8 years since I've eaten at a White Castle, but with my Dad passing last week and it being his favorite place to cheat on a meal, I needed to stop. I rarely eat fast food anymore (and the feeling I had after eating this salty treat is why), but this was a tasty treat. I ordered a #1 (four sliders with cheese, fries, and a drink) and one fish sandwich with cheese. I couldn't wait and had to eat these while driving and damn they were tasty. White Castle will never be mixed up with gourmet food, but once in a while it's a fun treat. My only issue with today's stop is that I asked for Diet Coke and they gave me regular Coke. read more

White Castle - a close up of a package of white castle - Burgers Near Me - South Amboy, New Jersey

OK. If you're from the Northeast then you probably love white castle. Being born in New Jersey, but raised in south Florida I only got white castles in the summertime when I went to visit my grandparents. So even to this day every time I'm in New Jersey I have to get my white castle fix. Landed late night and stop for a cheesy double! The restaurant was clean and service was great. manager at this location was so sweet. My Dad wanted a special order and she took good care of us. Food was hot and yummy! read more

On 1/25/22 about 2:35pm I needed to satisfy my crave. Got my food in under 2 minutes which was great. Once I sat at the only "clean" table, I was shocked at how filthy the dining room was! There were 6 tables that had food and drink residue on them and the floor under some tables and both banquets looked like they haven't been swept or mopped in a week! I was the only person there...why wouldn't the manager take a look around and have the staff clean?? What was even more disgusting were the HVAC registers in the ceiling. I couldn't imagine the last time they were cleaned and the air return cover was caked with layers of filth. In timesike now when sanitation is at an all time high this placed definitely didn't get the memo! read more

Food was ok. Very slow drive thru service. Chicken rings were extremely hard and burgers were soggy!! Fries were good

This location at this time is fantastic.. I usually go inside with an app special . The current manager is the greatest. She's a tiny Asian lady that seems to love her job and is respected by her staff They are "all" having fun.. looks like a pleasant work environment and the quality and service is spot on.. clean and efficient.. read more

I mean the food was good but DAAAAANG it took forever. My friends and I went there after a concert and it took almost an hour for our orders to be ready. Nah. read more

EVERY. SINGLE. TIME I order food from here, they have mistakes. This time it took 40 minutes for the food to be ready, but it is a busy weekend. But everything is cold. If it took 40 minutes to get to it to make that would be ok, but it's been sitting somewhere. I ordered two things that NEED the associated sauces - a fish sandwich needs tartar and these new shrimp whatever-they-ares are supposed to have a sauce. I specifically ordered the sauces and did not get either one. When someone orders one of those things, doesn't you hand just automatically grab for the sauce to them? read more

Good location with quick service. Once in awhile enjoy the cheeseburgers, onion rings and vanilla shake. Us Jersey Guys love our White Castle. read more

White Castle - empty tables and chairs in a restaurant - Burgers Near Me - South Amboy, New Jersey

I always pass this White Castle on my way back home from my parents house and every time I am tempted to stop. White Castle sounds good in my head but I know I would regret it after though because this stuff will glue you to the thunder bucket if you aint careful! White manna up in Jersey City is much better but White Castle is a lot of peoples guilty pleasure. I went with the #1 with onion rings. I also tried the chicken slider. The burger were amazing as expected. This is quintessential fast food where you can't just have one bite. The chicken slider was also surprisingly delicious as well. It was very meaty and honestly tasted like real chicken. Really liked this White Castle. Service was quick and prices were low. This is fast food so you aren't really sure what you are eating but it is good. Come check it out. read more

White Castle - Burgers Near Me - South Amboy, New Jersey

I like White Castle but this one int it very very rude people and area is dirty they need a change of location and people

Love the taste of the sliders but the prices have gotten completely ridiculous. $20 for two customers ordering the small combos.

She Said..."So after driving 3 hours from MD just to taste white castle for the first time was not what i expected. But that might also be the fact that i hyped it up so much over the years without even tasting it. The burgers tasted excatly like they do from when i used to buy them frozen at the grocery store. I literally tasted no difference. Not trying to bust on white castle...becasue it was good, just thought it was going to taste different than the frozen ones. Oh and another thing they might want to try and reconsider...try bigger boxes for the burgers, no need to have each burger in a single cardboard box, seems like a waste." He Said..."So having those litte White Castle burgers explode in your mouth was worth the 3hr drive. I mean I know the burgers are not gourmet style and they have a paper thin piece of meat on them. But they are something that you really crave. If you see the movie, you will have to have some. They are so good in your mouth...its like your mouth is having a party and everybody is invited when you bite into one of those mini-heaven snacks..i mean mini-burgers." read more

White Castle - yummm... - Burgers Near Me - South Amboy, New Jersey

So many low star ratings...We need to take it easy on the workers here lol. Ive never been to a white castle earlier than 2am whenever I go here with my lil brother. I mean you cant be expecting the workers here to be all PEPPY and HEY GOOD FRIGGIN MORNING GUYS, they are tired as hell its 4am and they are suppose to be excited to see you order ten billion things? This white castle never messed up my order ever. We used to go here once to twice a week during the summer time. We grew up eating this stuff. We usually just take it easy and go with a crave case with 12 burgers (regular with extra onions) other 12 burgers (cheeseburger or jalapeno cheeseburger). We throw in a couple sacks of chicken rings, we NEVER order fries here, it stinks..always soggy. Get onion rings though its always a hit. The clamstrips you can never go wrong with. and last but not least one of my favorite things here is their quadruple THICK milk shake. The best in JERSEY I think. Well, maybe not the best, but its definitely awesome. We then take all the stuff back to our house and watch a movie at 3 or 4am in the morning..thats almost twice a week during our summer vacation break...GOOD TIMES GOOD TIMES! read more

Yuck. Been there. Done that. Never again I don't see what all the hype is about The place is clean and employees friendly. I just don't like White Castle burgers read more

White Castle - My Dad, on the other hand, totally enjoyed the experience. I believe it's called nostalgia - Burgers Near Me - South Amboy, New Jersey

Late night food binge after late night alcohol binge. Cheap and tasty but will leave you feeling miserable in the morning. Be prepared to wait a little bit for your meal, the place was never known for setting the land speed record for food serving. Chicken & Cheese w/ bacon + mozzerella stick + onion ring + crinkle cut fries = Fat White Castle ;) (yelp Rutgers Grease Trucks if that is a foreign language to you) UPDATE: their breakfast sandwiches and chicken and gravy on a waffle are actually pretty great. read more

White Castle - Fat B-B-Q - BBQ slider + fries + onion ring... sans mozz sticks because they screwed me on them! - Burgers Near Me - South Amboy, New Jersey

We. Love. (and crave) White Castle. Our grocery store sliders come frozen here in sunny California. :( So when in Jersey... This the first stop after landing at EWR. Sleep deprived from the red-eye. Enhances the experience. Jon Bon Jovi used to eat here. Welcome to Sayreville! (or South Amboy, if you will) Everybody is so friendly. :) read more

First of all, if you are going to White Castle you probably already know that it is a bad decision. You are going to feel bad after you ate it from the grease and from the guilt for such a terrible choice. That said, it is cheap and relatively fast. I say relatively fast, because do always end up waiting, but the whole reason the burgers are so thin and have holes in them is so they can cook in mere moments. This location is pretty standard. They redid the inside in the last decade and have one of those 9 million flavor fancy coke machines. However, I never seem to find a clean table and the trash cans are always full. I live from any White Castles so when I'm in Sayreville/South Amboy area, I will always typically stop just because it is an institution. read more

Very good burgers and very fast service. Workers are not very friendly but it is fast food so no one expects that anyways.

One of the worst White Castle chains that I've ever been too. The people who worked there was nice but my family and I ordered around a dozen grilled chicken sliders. The chicken sliders tasted freezer burned and not fresh at all. Yes, I get that most people order the hamburgers so the grilled chicken patties are probably super frozen. But even after cooking them the chicken patties tasted disgusting. I thought this was only going to be a problem with the sliders, but we also ordered a sack of chicken rings, which also had the same problem! I don't know if they don't cook it long enough or wait for the chicken to defrost prior to putting it on the grill, but it was not appetizing at all. read more

This is one of the better White castles. Great staff, fast service and tasty food. The deals are set by corporate, but it's worth visiting.

"I had this terrible urge when they asked me my name after I placed our order, to say 'Kumar'...that would've been wrong, wouldn't it?" "It would have been hilarious." While I'm gastronomically restricted from eating everything I'd like to in this place, so I had to settle for 2 sliders, 4 french fries and a few sips of a vanilla shake. Delicious! read more

Like manna from heaven, these tasty little treats make the long and predictable drive from New Jersey to Boston a little easier... or a little worse if you are prone to indigestion. No matter, they are worth it! As someone who does not typically eat greasy food, I allow myself to indulge, and I mean INDULGE once or twice a year. Savoring every perfect bite. The frozen packages you can buy in the convenience store cannot compare, everyone needs to experience a sack of fresh sliders at least once in their lives! Occasionally the chain will have specials, like mini burgers with jalapeno cheddar or sliced cherry tomatoes, but don't bother, stick with regular burgers or cheeseburgers if you just have to be fancy. No need messing with perfection. I can almost taste that blissful first bite... read more

I responded to a craving tonight that comes but once in a while, and with good reason. I used the mobile app to place my order, which was really convenient because it remembers previous orders and lets you duplicate the order. So in a few finger taps, my order was in. I told them I'd pay at the window. I pulled up to the drive-thru and told them I'm here to pick up an online order. They said pull around and I did. That was the last friendly thing that was said to me the entire time. I realize these places are run by milenials, and often don't have a manager or 'shepherd' to teach them how to speak to people other than via Twitter, Pinterest or Facebook. The girl in the window let me sit there unacknowledged for a good 10 minutes. She argued loudly with someone in the back about some foul up, and finally a large Asian kid appeared in the window with my order. He held the bag with the same contempt a new parent holds a dirty diaper with, and thrust it out the window into my hands. He uttered not a single word and did not smile. The arguing chicky poo finally acknowledged me and said "have a good night." While they did get my order correct, their customer service was what I've come to expect from a bunch of socially awkward milenials that are only comfortable staring at a 3" screen and have little ability to recognize there is a customer, with needs, before them and that they are the ambassador to the restaurant. They are the ruler by which we measure the joint. Okay, maybe it's not a fancy restaurant, but were my expectations the problem, or do these kids need lessons in socialization and customer service? read more

I wrote about the White Castle by my house so I had to write about this one, too. They are really bad. The food is good, but the idiots serving it? It's like a sketch from Saturday Night Live! It's like they went to the mental hospital to hold a job fair or something. read more

late night crave!" Awesome night because the drive thru man was funny. I literally cried

I went there three days ago and I went there about two weeks ago I ordered a hamburger doubles and I got home and they were overcooked and dry so that means they have me sitting on the on the grill which you can't do because that's what happened to La finca real dark they get in dry and I know it's not right it's not the way to do it but I know what y They are doing there they fit on the grill too long that's what happened they should know that instead they came to the public it's a disgrace your buyer beware check your food will you pick it up take a look at it make sure it ain't right out and brown in our in dark read more

White Castle.. you either love it or hate it. Me? LOOOOOVE IT!!! lol.. No, but seriously, I ignore all the rumors that the burgers are made of horse meat, and just savor the flavor. I usually get out of work around midnight, and it's real convenient that the big WC is always there with open arms to take my money and serve me fresh hot burgers at 1am. I once tried The Crave Case Challenge, which is eating all 30 burgers in a Crave Case in one sitting. I ended up eating only 20 burgers. I think I could've finished them all if I did it "head to head" against someone else, since I can be a pretty competitive person sometimes. Instead, I ate 20 while my wife sat across from me, eating her 3 lil burgers. I'm curious to hear if anyone knows of someone who ate all 30 in one sitting, how long it took them to eat all of it, and how long they spent on the toilet afterwards..lol. My favorite sides are the onion rings, chicken rings, and clam strips. The pulled pork sliders are surprisingly very tasty, too. I've never eaten inside this WC, so I can't comment on the cleanliness, but the drive thru line moves at a decent pace; although, be careful driving thru it, because it's got some tight turns, and I've seen a couple cars either drive over the curb or mess up their rims on them. So enjoy a simple fast-food experience at the Castle that never sleeps.. and tell 'em Marcus & wife sent ya.. ;p read more

Amazing service, food was perfect, even though they were busy they still got the food out in a timely manner. Overall would recommend this to anyone and everyone. read more

Oh, White Castle! It's so trashy. So so trashy. But, everyone needs to experience it at least once in their lives. Even if it's only to have a White Castle story to tell others. The "meat" on the burgers is about as thick as those cardboard coasters they have at most bars, and about as flavorful,ick. I live about 2.5 hours from this white castle and hadn't had white castle burgers in at least 15 years, but while I was visiting a friend in the area I decided to swing by and get some burgers for my dad as a "thank you" for replacing my brakes. This white castle is super ghetto and my friend told me a horror story about how her dad got carjacked outside like 15 years ago so I opted to go through the drive through. They had a little turnstyle to collect the money/receive the food so you have no human contact. I got my dad an entire "crave case." The crave case is 30 burgers stacked in rows in a cardboard container that looks like a briefcase - it's amazing, truly. It's cheaper to by the burgers by "the sack" but come on, who doesn't want a briefcase full of neatly stacked burger pods! When I brought the burgers home to my dad, they made him happier than any other gift I've ever given him. Sad, but true. The next day my mom told me while he was eating them he made little towers out of the cardboard burger pods and was telling her stories about when he was a kid and his big sister would bribe him with white castle food. (total bonus points for me for the next time I need him to work on my car!) White castle food isn't just a meal, it's an experience. read more

PREPARED TO WAIT NO MATTER WHAT TIME YOU GO! You can order one thing and wait. Do they not train staff or do they hire enough people?

Think twice before placing an order through Doordash, placed order for crave case of thirty burgers, from the time of my order it was delivered and cooked in 17 minutes. The burgers were practically raw and frozen, drive to location, Raisa the manager argues with me "they cooked". Claims she can't make a new order or provide refund. read more

I can finally check this off my bucket list! Way better than the frozen kind. Worth the trip from LA to Jersey.

I can say I've eaten at a White Castle. That's where the experience stops, really. Food's okay, but nothing spectacular. Onion rings are better than the rather crappy fries. Burgers are pretty much exactly like the ones I can get in the freezer case. Really not all that stellar. read more

White Castle is ok in my book!!!! The Jalapeno burgers were yummy and I liked the fries with cheese!!

Wish I could say better but with 6 people working, I still couldn't place an order after waiting nearly 5 minutes and no one ahead of me in line. I'd imagine the burgers are what you'd expect from a White Castle but 5 Guys took my order AND fulfilled it in less time than it would have taken just to place an order at White Castle. Hopefully next time will be better. read more

Food is what it is what you expect from White Castle . Come here after work late night . Food never is wrong but my complaint for so many times is that they take way too long ! It's 3 in the morning I'm tired and I want to get home there's 2 cars in front of me .....I should not be here for 20 min.....a Wendy , Chik fil a, Taco Bell, mc Donald's doesn't even take that long when they have 7 cars at lunch time .....get it together read more
