Great burgers. I love their double Butterburger with cheese. The onion rings are excellent. The Shakes and Mixers are all delicious as well. I particularly like the strawberry shakes that have real strawberries in them and not just flavored custard. Order at the front, sit down, and they’ll bring your food to you. Good service in a nice, clean environment.

Culver's is a Midwest staple, and for good reason!Color me shocked when I found out how great their shrimp is! There are full blown restaurants that don't have shrimp this good! And the best part is, it's consistent. It's never tasted or smelled funky or fishy! It comes with cocktail sauce but you gotta ask for tartar if you want it.The burgers are heavy hitters, and their fries are like White Castle's but better. Get a little cup of cheese sauce to dip 'em in - its REAL cheese, not that junky questionable dip you usually find at the gas stations.The concrete mixers are incredible, and frozen custard has generic ice cream beat by a long shot. I keep it simple and usually have a scoop of vanilla with hot fudge. Hits the spot everytime!The chicken tenders are always the perfect texture too. And the cheese curds! Awesome. I do wish they were a bit more consistent with how many curds come in a bag, though - there have been occasions where the bag was skimpy at best, much to my disappointment.This location in particular usually has a wildly long line come dinnertime - but it always goes by with speedy efficiency in my experience. If you want to beat the line, I would say have an early bird dinner at 5!The ambiance inside is... meh. Clean with big windows. Lots of old goats go here for some reason, I don't know how their stomachs handle any of this food but hey, you do you!There's a few outdoor seats which is great, especially on a summer day after a swim.The workers are always going hard in all seasons in a friendly way and they all deserve a raise - they've earned it! Only a great staff can make a place like this run the way it does!

Took 3 attempts to get my burger right after realizing the gentleman punched the order in wrong. The Young lady was professional and helpful during the times she brought out each one. Lol, once after the manager said here is this one and they didn't check it and it still got sent out wrong.Location was busy and clean.

Literally closed early the last 3 times I went. Google says they close at 10pm and that it was just verified LAST WEEK. Tell me why I pull up at 9:02 and they say “sorry, we close at 9”. Ridiculous. I will never be returning to this location. I never experience this at any other Culver’s. I hope the franchisee knows how easy it is to update the Google Business Profile to reflect accurate hours. Actually, I hope they don’t, because then it would be even sadder that they still choose not to do it. Peace.

I tried going there today and for the 3rd time in a row this store closed earlier than 10 pm. As I pulled up to the drive thru I waited behind one car. When it was my turn I was told they had closed at 9pm….it was 9:02pm. I understand there may be staffing issues but it would be nice to at least post it on google saying “hours may vary due to staffing issues”. Wish I could write a review about the food but unfortunately don’t even get the chance to do that.

Staff did a great job getting the items out in good time considering it was a very rainy Friday night and both drive thru and inside was busy. Was disappointed that the hamburger bun was very dry didn't have that buttery taste you go to them for. Fries were nice hot and crispy.

Courteous employee's . Always with a smile. Food is prepare just right, also hot . When employee bring your order to car ,its timely ,and they always appreciate your service. By saying thank you. That I loved. Thats why I continue going there.

As a driver I take several people to work there and they honestly love working there.I placed an onion ring order they were phenomenal, the portion was great for the price and they were very speedy.This is a great location

Culver's is always a win with our family. I like how you always known the quality and freshness to expect, this location was spot on!

Fast service on a Friday night at 530. Minimal wait time and the guy who took our cash was incredibly friendly. So nice and very refreshing. Best onion rings ever!!
