A Culvers just opened up near me. For anyone whos had it is it good or is it bad?

I never see it mentioned in fast food threads so I'm suspicious.

 

[WiseguyMVP]

Why don't you just try it and decide for yourself.

 

[Fat4all]

ill eat cheese curds any day of the minute

i say go for it

 

[JeffGrubb]

It's good. Greasy, but good. Cheese curds are awesome, but I like the rest of the menu as well.

 

[Radiant Silvertuna]

Yeah, they're great. Right up there with Smashburger and Five Guys as my favorite chain burger.

 

[Blitzrules240]

It's fucking delicious.

Those cheese curds are GODLY.

 

[BashNasty]

Love Culvers.

I live in Chicago and vacation at a Minnesota cabin a couple times a year. Typically I drive back to Minnesota through Wisconsin and one of my highlights of the drive is stopping at Culvers.

Check that shit out.

 

[Maengun1]

They have really good cheese curds, frozen custard, and their own brand of root beer that I really like as well. I'm not a huge burger guy which is their main draw so I don't go there often. I think people generally like them too though.

Worth a visit

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

It's ok.
Nothing special.

 

[SDBurton]

First time I tried their concrete mixer I had to park my car immediately so I could enjoy that shit.

Vanilla custard + Butterfinger = Bliss

 

[Maridia]

A Midwest gem. Definitely give it a shot.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Perhaps they're asking because they don't know all the details? Wants facts/opinions before they dive in?

 

[bigmakattack]

Everything but their fries are good. Love their burgers but can't stand the fries.

 

[Teggy]

It's the best. I only get to go like once a year when I am in Michigan and it makes me sad.

Get a mint shake. Yup, just mint. You won't be disappointed.

 

[JCHandsom]

Yes, family tradition to go there.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Wow what a coincidence! I was just wondering that too!

Why don't you just try it and decide for yourself.

Terrible first post.

 

[Sorian]

The cheese curds and shake/ice cream things are godlike. Burgers are so-so, super greasy which is a turn off for me but I'm not going hungry if I ever find myself in one.

 

[Strike]

Pretty good. Above average for fast food.

 

[OG Shaka Zulu]

Get a double butter burger or the limited time Pub Burger.

 

[Brakke]

Had a butter burger for lunch actually. Culver's is solid.

 

[Kenai]

They are like a better tasting and less expensive Dairy Queen. Love em

 

[Aaron Strife]

Is there going to be a thread like this for every chain?

Anyway it's top-tier fast food, highly recommended.

 

[inner-G]

It's good

I like the double chz butter burger combo

Their fries are top-tier. Crinkle cut.

 

[Professor Crate]

Sourdough melt is great. If nothing else, cheese curds are a must have.

 

[moondoggerr]

Bacon deluxe butter burger is solid.

 

[VariantX]

Why don't you just try it and decide for yourself.

Because that costs time and money.

 

[GuitarGuruu]

It's fantastic. If I can recommend two things it is the cheese curds and concrete mixers. You won't be dissapointed.

 

[the anime man]

Delicious. Not a fan of the fries but the burgers and onion rings are super good. Very greasy tho.

Tasty shakes and dessert stuff too.

Oh and as others have mentioned, the cheese curds are A+.

 

[Caddywompus]

It's just another over-priced burger joint, nothing special. I'd rather eat there than a Hardees or Steak N Shake. You'll probably like it, it's just not something you'll go very often because of the price.

 

[Affeinvasion]

Good enough to pry me away from Whataburger every once in a while when I lived in Texas.

They have root beer that tastes like what A&W franchises used to taste like.

My wife and I always share a sourdough melt with a side of cheese curds. It's not good for you, but what do you expect from a place that calls their burger a Butterburger?

 

[TheSkullPrince]

I have no idea what that is. Guess it's not on the West Coast?

 

[brau]

Its good.

My wife is a big fan of their Turtle Sundaes.

You should check it out. In Wisconsin they were pretty darn tasty if you ask me. Also cheese curds ftw!

 

[Tetra-9]

Do it op, they have some of the best monthly burgers of any chain. Also their heese ccurds rock, they used to have Chipotle cheese curds which were amazing #bringemback

 

[Brakke]

I have no idea what that is. Guess it's not on the West Coast?

Upper Midwest, primarily Wisconsin. Tho there are a few here and there around the country: https://www.culvers.com/locator/view-all-locations.

 

[Sorian]

They have a bunch in Phoenix for whatever reason. Only reason I'd ever heard of them.

Snowbirds.

You don't happen to live in FL do you OP?

 

[Wads]

Man I miss Culver's. Great burger- they come up in fast food threads - just less frequently due to lack of locations..

 

[gamz]

Its good.

Turtle sundaes are the bomb. I have one every month. Delicious.

 

[TheGreatDirector]

They're damn good. Had a bacon cheeseburger from there while traveling up North once. That and their fries are of nice quality.

 

[Sorian]

Snowbirds.

That makes so much sense.

Spoiler

I hate snowbirds

 

[DocSeuss]

I love Culver's, but the nearest one is about three hours away and I have several cheaper alternatives anyways, like Braum's, which I never talk about because nobody outside of a 400 mile radius of Tulsa knows what it is.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

On the rare occasions I've passed through the Midwest I've made a point to stop there. It's like McDonald's if the people who run McDonald's had an inordinate amount of reverence for the idea of what a fast food joint can be. It's the closest thing I've found to a traditional restaurant while still being fast food.

Just looked at their menu and damn it looks delicious. If I'm ever in Arizona I have to try them out.

 

[Wulfric]

Culver's is the bomb dude. Go get some cheese curds. The burgers are fine, I guess. The buns are usually kinda cold.

 

[DoomGyver]

Double butter burger with bacon. Damn damn DAMN! The fries are good too.

 

[the-pi-guy]

Easily my favorite place.

It's fucking delicious.

Those cheese curds are GODLY.

Get a mint shake. Yup, just mint. You won't be disappointed.

These people know what they are talking about (and so do most other people here.)

But mint shakes are amazing, and cheese curds are amazing.

 

[painey]

Over rated burgers and fries, but their dairy is the shit

 

[Rubik8]

It's good. Burgers are above average and their custard is amazing. The one next to me has a new favor of the day custard cone for $1. We go a fair bit.

 

[shnurgleton]

Culver's is excellent. I'm a sucker for the patty melt and curds. Wish they had some locations out here in the Northeast.
