White Castle, known for its square 'slider' burgers, is offering a glass of wine for $4.50 and beer from $3 at its restaurant in Lafayette, Indiana, as it bids to expand its market.
The fast food chain, famously featured in the 2004 film 'Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle', introduced the sale of alcohol after opening its Blaze Modern BBQ side-chains attached to some of its regular restaurants.
Jamie Richardson, a spokesman for the Columbus, Ohio-based White Castle System Inc, said: 'This was something that customers had been suggesting.
'They thought that beer and wine might go nicely with the barbecue that was available at Blaze.
'We're certain that we might have some customers who might enjoy some sliders and a beer or wine as well.'
The move has received a 'very positive' reaction in Indiana, and could be extended to all White Castle restaurants, as well as the co-branded Blaze Modern BBQ, Asian food brand Laughing Noodle and sandwich outlet Deckers.
