A hometown burger chain has closed its Powell location.

According to signage on the eatery’s window, the White Castle located at 8787 Owenfield Dr. in Powell (just off U.S. Route 23) has closed its doors for good.

“Sorry, we are closed permanently. Please visit one of these nearest locations,” a sign in the restaurant’s window reads. It goes on to list locations in Dublin, Sunbury and on Kenny Road.

White Castle continues to operate more than a dozen locations in Columbus proper, and even more in central Ohio as a whole.

Although White Castle—which built its name serving smaller-sized burgers known as Sliders—originally opened in Wichita more than 100 years ago, the national burger chain relocated to Columbus in the 1930s, and is currently headquartered here, in a recently-built new campus visible from both I-670 and State Route 315.
