Only know White Castle but looking forward to trying Krystal.

Frozen white castles are not the same as fresh. No pickles on them.

Having been raised in Jacksonville, Fl, I always enjoyed the Krystal burgers. When I moved to NJ, I could not find a Krystal burger place. I went on a business trip to Dresher, Pa and they had a special snack at the meeting from White Castle. I was happy because they were my favorite Krystal burgers.

Personally , I cannot find a difference in the taste.

Now, my question. Where in Leesburg is the Krystal place going to be? I have not seen an address

And a second question: which came first - White Castle burgers or Krystal burgers? Google people please respond!

Only know White Castle but I'd like to give Krystal a try. The microwave White Castles are pretty good when you add a pickle but not the same as getting a sack at the counter.

White Castles are the best. Krystals are ok but I just order mine with no mustard. No which you eat, you pay for it the next day.

White castles in 1921 in Kansas. Locations in the Midwest.

The first Krystals' opened in Tennessee in 1932, they now have 360 locations in 8 southern states. I've eaten at both in Savannah, Starke FL, Gainesville FL, Ocala FL and Myrtle Beach.

The new store in Leesburg is 815 N. 14th St., which is Hwy 27 just after the 441 split, you'll see a Pizza Hut and a shopping Center with 'Big Lots', and then just after the Wendys is where is should be. Another way to go is take 44 east and continue onto Main St., then turn left on Hwy 27 and it will be about a mile north on the left.

We have a Krystal in Ringgold Ga. I only eat there when my wife is out of town, she won't eat there.

We were in NJ in June and went to a White Castle. Far superior.

Krystal has announced that they will open for business on Tuesday, Sept. 2, 2014. Their hours of operation will be 6:00 a.m. until midnight, but will expand to being open 24 hours on Friday and Saturday. There appears to be great anticipation among locals about the opening. Corporate officials have been very pleased with the incredible response and look forward to a great opening and a long and lasting presence in the area.

Over the years everytime I'm near a Krystal I've got to stop. We go to Ocala or Gainesville just about once a month, and I always make a stop. It's my favorite burger. Now, if only Dairy Queen would return to TV we would have it made.

Line those Blizzards up!!!!!! I'll have a Heath Bar or 2
