Used the recent coupons to get some burgers on a weekday at lunch time. This location is kind of cramped where you place your order and wait for your food.

Our order of burgers and fries was freshly prepared and of normal White Castle quality. It's known as cheap, fast food and, hey, some of us crave it occasionally!

I still prefer Krystal burgers, but White Castle is a close replica!

I had always heard about the famous little White Castle burgers, but I had never tried one until today.

My friend ordered two burgers, and I had a single double cheeseburger.  I thought it was the grossest, most overrated crap I've ever eaten.  It just tasted like grease and cheese on a bun.  Even though there was meat and diced onions involved those ingredients were flavorless.

The old lady at the counter seemed offended that our order was so small that she actually gave us attitude.

There's always a pivotal moment right before I order at White Castle. "Is this something I really want to do?" But after a few seconds of hesitation, I go ahead an order a few sliders, an order of fries and a Coke.

Another 24-hour eatery conveniently located near Covington's bar district, White Castle might be what you crave at 3 am, but it's what you regret the next day. Something about those little miniature burgers is ruinous on the gastro-intestinal tract. The problem is that they are so darn tasty when they're going down.

A slider consists of a beef patty (yes, it is beef, guys), sauteed onions, a pickle slice, and cheese (costs extra) set a top a bun that has been steamed on the grill. The way the tastes blend into each other creates a unique taste only found at White Castles. White Castles is always dreaming up new ways to serve their hamburgers (with jalepenos, with French onions, etc), but many new varieties fall short of the original. Same goes for the chicken rings and chicken sandwiches.

Their crinkle cut French fries are mediocre and invariably in need of salt. Cheese sticks aren't bad and the chicken rings are pretty good.
