White Castle may finally come to Vegas

The burger chain will reportedly open it’s first Las Vegas restaurant at the Best Western Plus Casino Royale, if documents obtained by Eater are any indication.

Building permit applications referenced a “future White Castle restaurant,” according to Eater, but an expected opening date was not listed. White Castle hasn’t confirmed the report.

While a Strip location, if it happens, would be the first brick-and-mortar White Castle location in the valley, Las Vegas is no stranger to the burgers. The famous sliders have a cult following that has turned up in droves at every Las Vegas Foodie Fest since last April, the first time White Castle participated in the event.

There are more than 400 White Castle locations. Currently, the closest restaurant to Las Vegas is in Cape Girardeau, Mo., more than 1,500 miles away.
