    I love that White Castle elevates its restaurant for Valentine’s Day! Table cloths, past menus, candles (electric), flowers and fun decorations throughout. We bring our grandlittles with us so their parents can have a nice Valentine’s Day dinner sans kiddoes. And the boys love that they can order off of a menu on their own. The staff is always so super friendly too!!! Thanks!!
