Overview

  • The Ohio-based burger chain announced the Grandscape site in The Colony at a Thursday event that included its “sprinkling of the onions” tradition.
  • Company officials did not provide a timeline for when the Texas restaurant will open.
  • The location will be near Destination Drive and Grandscape Boulevard, steps from fellow Midwestern transplant Portillo's.
  • CEO Lisa Ingram, who previously lived and worked in Dallas, said she wanted a “true castle” in Texas.
  • Founded in 1921, White Castle operates about 345 locations concentrated in the Midwest and Northeast, and it points to North Texas population growth as a key reason for the move.
