White Castle burgers finally make their way to Colorado…kind of

Now that Colorado has added Whataburger and In-N-Out Burger locations in the last few years, the only major burger chain still missing in our state is White Castle, but that’s changing…well kind of!

Murphy USA, the gas station chain with more than 1,700 locations across 27 states, including multiple spots in Denver, Colorado Springs and across Colorado, has partnered with White Castle to bring the chain’s new Crave & Go kiosks to select larger-format stores. The kiosks are essentially automated fast-food machines: you walk up to a touchscreen, place your order and get hot White Castle food in about two minutes. Behind the scenes, the kiosk handles all the prep, heating and delivery with no kitchen or cook required. White Castle launched the Crave & Go concept back in April with plans for more than 1,000 locations nationwide, including gas stations, college campuses, hospitals and transportation hubs, in partnership with Automated Retail Technologies.

Neither Murphy USA nor White Castle has confirmed exactly which stores will get the kiosks first, but with Murphy USA locations already operating across Colorado, including on West 44th Avenue in Denver, East Evans Avenue near DU, Tower Road near DIA and multiple spots in Colorado Springs, the possibility of grabbing a cheese slider while filling your tank on the way to the mountains is suddenly very real. The menu is expected to include White Castle’s signature sliders (original, double cheese, crispy chicken and panko fish), plus sides like fries, mozzarella sticks, chicken rings and onion chips.

We’ll keep an eye on which Colorado locations get the kiosks first. In the meantime, start mentally preparing yourself for the sentence “I’m going to get gas and also eat four sliders that came out of a machine.”
