Are. there any White Castle Burger Locations in NY or NJ off I-95? About This Page:

I'm sorry I this is in the wrong area, and please feel free to move it if it is in the wrong area. Does anyone who drives down to Disney from the New England Area, RI, CT, Ny, or NJ know if there are any White Castle Burger locations located close to I-95? We're leaving for The Boston Area in a few weeks and DH had mentioned that he wanted to stop at one either going or coming back home. If anyone wouldn't mind letting me know, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank You?

I'm sorry, and I know this is completely unelpful, but as soon as I saw this post, all I could think of was Harold and Kumar. Hopefully you find a White Castle in NJ a little easier than they did!

There are some Krystal restaurants (which is, I guess, some sort of sister restaurant) along the southern states.

Molly, I had to laugh at your post, since I love that Harold & Kumar movie. Thanks, I think our adventure driving should hopefully not be an adventure like theirs(fingers crossed).

Eileen, thank you so much for your reply. I tried googling White Castle's in New York or New Jersey and got nothing. I'll most certainly look for Krystal locations! You're such a help! Thank you!

[BeckiO5]

Eileen, that link was quite helpful, Thank you!

We're leaving VA around Dinner time on a Thurs night and figured by te time we hit NJ/NY we'll probably be hungry again(and not much traffic on I-95 at that time of the night/ early am). It would be a change for us than the usual Rest Area locations. Not to mention I haven't had a true Castle Burger since I was a kid.

White Castle has a store locator at http://www.whitecastle.com/FindCastl...e/locator.aspx

As a former Jersey boy, I know your quest is possible. For example, there are two in the Elizabeth/Linden NJ area, near Turnpike (I-95) Exit 13. There are lots more, as you'll discover, but none are perfectly convenient to an exit, even the ones in Elizabeth and Linden.

When Harold and Kumar head from Hoboken (in the northeast corner of the state) and drive all the way to Cherry Hill (west central) in search of a slider... it's crazy. For example, there's a famous White Castle (relatively speaking) about five miles north of Hoboken in North Bergen, at a spot known as Nungesser's (a former trolly transfer point). Then there's the one about two miles from Hoboken in Jersey City, another three miles away in Union City, a bunch in Newark, the Oranges... all within about a 10-15 minute drive from Hoboken.

You'll also find a bunch in NY. One to consider is located on Bruckner Blvd. in the Bronx, very close to I-95.

All, however, are not at an easy spot like a rest stop - you might feel safer printing out driving directions from the highway exit or using a GPS if you go on this quest.

You are mentioning all my old stomping grounds! C'mon though, Dave, once a Jersey boy, ALWAYS a Jersey boy on some level.

When I can't get my rat-burger fix from a White Castle place, I can usually find frozen ones in ShopRite. They sell them with and without cheese. I'd suggest microwaving them five to ten seconds less than the directions say and let them sit in the microwave thirty seconds. Otherwise, in my microwave, the buns get too tough.

Hope you find one!

Dave, Thanl you very much for your very Detailed Reply! We will most certainly be driving with our GPS Unit. We usually never stop in NJ/NY unless it is at a Reststop, but we do need a little change. I sadly haven't enjoyed a White Castle Slider since visiting family in the Chicago Area, and thought there might be some in NJ/NY as a resting place for us. Pretty much every place in all of the Reststop we have near us within a 1/2 hour drive. NY/NJ are the closest to us and on our route (thank you Dave for the locations)! It will be worth the stop for us

Let's see... I think the easiest White Castle for you to get to will be in Metuchen. The address ays Lafayette ave, but its really between that and Route 1 South.


Take exit 10 for NJ-440 E toward I-287 N/Perth Amboy/Metuchen
Continue toward I-287 N
Keep left at the fork, follow signs for I-287 N and merge onto I-287 N
Take exit 1A to merge onto US-1 N toward Newark
Make a U-turn at Ford Ave
Destination will be on the right (on US 1)

White Castle
8 Lafayette Rd
Metuchen, NJ 08840-2900

To get back on 95S, you can either just take Route 1 S for a few miles and get back on at exit 9 or follow these directions:

17. Head southwest on US-1 S toward Co Road 657 I/Lafayette Ave
1.9 mi
18. Take the I-287 S ramp to NJ-440/I-95/Raritan Center/Perth Amboy
0.1 mi
19. Keep right at the fork to continue toward I-287 S and merge onto I-287 S
1.2 mi
20. Take the I-95 exit toward NJ Turnpike

21. Keep left at the fork, follow signs for Trenton
0.4 mi
22. Keep right at the fork to continue toward I-95 S and merge onto I-95 S

THERE IS 1 IN THE BRONX ITS A DETOUR OF 5 MINUTES WHEN YOU COME DOWN 95 IN THE BRONX FOLLOW THE BRUCKNER SOUTH AT THE FORK FOR 95 S AND THE BRUCKNER. TAKE THE 2ND EXIT FOR CASTLE HILL RD STAY ON THE SERVICE RD FOR ABOUT 2TO 3 MILES ON THE RIGHT IS BELLY BOMMERS THEN JUST FOLLOW THE BRUCKNER WEST TO THE MAJOR DEEGAN PAST YANKEE STADIUM TO 95 SOUTH OVER THE GWB ITS A LITTLE DETOUR BUT TRAFFIC IS ALWAYS BACKED UP ANYWAYS SO ENJOY THEM BURGERS IN TRAFFIC IF YOU WANT I CAN GIVE YOU DIRECTIONS BACK TO 95 S INSTEAD OF THE DEEGAN NORTH

Wow! That brings back old memories, I haven't had White Castle burgers since I was a teen, living in NY!!

[BeckiO5]

Thank you exeryone so much for your replies and directions! DH is pretty excited to get to try a fresh Castle Burger since we will hopefully now hit NJ/NY by lunch time 2 Weeks from tomorrow. I thought this might be a topic of memories for those who like Castle Burgers

Sandy- We've had the frozen ones, but they don't taste the same as having them from one of the restaurants

We'll see how DS likes one since I will make White Castle his 1st Hamburger(at least small enough not to intimidate him by the size).

....reason the frozen ones don't taste the "same"...is that they're not "steam-grilled"....on a bed of onions that date back to biblical times!!

...I love White Castles....they don't love me...anymore!! But I will say that even as they have become slightly more expensive...they're still the best burger bargain you can get.......eat one today...and three days from now....it's like you just had one.....

.....unfortunately there are no White Castles in my town in NJ...and I'm 2 minutes away from Exit 9 of the Turnpike (I-95) I'm literally surrounded by them...there's one in New Brunswick...one in South Amboy....one in Metuchen...one in South Plainfield....etc. ....and they're all less than 15 minute drives from my home!

[B.M.]

I've never had White Castle. But I've been told it's the same or similar to Krystal's. Once you get in the South closer to WDW there are tons of Krystal's. I love Krystal's!
