    When you're in Madison or anywhere in WI, you can't miss Culver's, a local favorite everyone knows. My nephew introduced me to their shrimp basket, which actually reminded me of the one from Costco. We stopped by specifically for it, and the service was quick and friendly. The fries, though, were a little salty and not as hot or crispy as I'd hoped. Overall, it was a decent meal and a quick, easy stop.

    First time at Culver's. First time eating cheese curds. Our lives are forever changed. I get a fast food chain may not be a must try spot when you're visiting, but I would recommend making some time. I did like how you can customize the burger to your liking and the wait was very minimal. Since I was only visiting, I didn't sign up for the rewards, but we considered eating here the very next day. It's tough to say how the cheese curds were I don't have anything to compare them to, but we were a fan. It wasn't too greasy and the cheese was flavorful. Plenty of seating and didn't get too noisy even though there were families and a bunch of people dining in.

    Went for custard. Stayed for the football game. Amazing view. Not too loud. Very nice and helpful employees. Tasty food. Great deal on 4 pints. 1 is a little over $5, but 4 are about $12ish. Clean bathrooms.

    This is the first time I am having a meal at Culver's. I loved the concrete. I had a vanilla concrete with resees peanut butter cupp and fudge. Spicy crispy chicken sandwich was another thing I loved. I had a deluxe single butter burger and a kids butter burger. It was ok. Fried cheese curd was way too salty for my liking. The place was big and there was good traffic in spite of the fact that I went on a weekday noon.

    I actually like Culver's a lot. I thought I'd never say this but I do. Culver's is a fastfood chain thats only found in the state of Wisconsin. They are known for 100% all beef non-frozen meat similar to what In-N-Out endorses too. Culver's is very well organized facility. Workers work very well together and every each one of them does what they are assigned to do in the most efficient way possible. Inside the restaurant is kept super clean unlike other fastfood chains. Interior is very neat, clean and modern, love it! Drive-thru is busy almost all the time too and just from what I see, I know Culver's is Wisconsin's favorite fastfood chain. So expect to wait in lines either inside or drive-thru. They are known for their Butter Burgers. My burger was super juicy with double patties that were never frozen. With added crispness from raw red onion, smooth melted cheese and crispy bacon, it was one of the best burgers I have had in awhile. I dont eat burgers too often, maybe less than 10x a year. The burger itself is super juicy and you are prone to get messy but who cares. No one wants a dry burger right? Buns are soft, moist and fluffy which also is a good feature added to the burger. Fries are super crispy and super duper hot when you first take a bite, so be careful! They are crinkle cut fries and sometimes, I prefer these over classic fries. Culver's is also known for their custard. I mean, come on it's Wisconsin, America's Dairyland as it is noted on their car license plates, haha. They have different daily flavors available on top of classic vanila and chocolate. Flavor of the day depends on the location meaning one location may not have the same flavor of the day as the other and vice versa. If you want to take some home, they have pre-packed custard in variety of flavors for $4.99 for a pint OR get 4 packs for $10.99 which definitely is a better deal! I had the Vanila custard and it was creamy, smooth and had velvety texture which I admired. I like these custard more than my other similar favorite, which is the frosty from Wendy's. Frosty has more, how should I say this, thicker texture compared to this custard. Smooth and light, velvety texture of custard is what I found to be more appealing to my personal taste. Amazing customer service provided by friendly staff as they bring the food to you after you order has been placed. Also, if you do the survey listed on the receipt, you can get a free custard! My Boyfriend says it does not expire as long as you do the survey and write that number down. It can save you about a little more than $2. I have been to other Culver's locations and every one of them had friendly staff with satisfying meals. Try it when you are in Wisconsin! You won't regret it! I know I am pretty picky but I really have nothing bad to say about this particular location. Even the restroom was cleaner than any other restrooms of fastfood chains.

    If you're looking for disappointment this is your place. I don't know why I keep trying to go back. Not once have they ever gotten my order right. Tonight was an order of a root beer, a chocolate mixer with Reese's and snickers, and a chocolate shake. We got a root beer float, a cup with vanilla ice cream on the bottom half and chocolate sauce on the top half, and a vanilla sort of mixer. I have four free ice cream coins from previous visits. They never look into fixing the incorrect order and make it look like such a hassle when bringing up the mistakes.

    Went to Culver's for lunch this afternoon and went to pick up lunch for both myself and my coworker she put in the order for Curd side pickup. Everything went fine I let them know I was there and they brought the food out to me. It was super busy so I didn't get a chance to double check everything was there like I usually do. I got back to the office and one of the fry's was missing and my coworker ordered her burger with the works but I didn't come with the works. The food was good though.

The head chef Casey served us our plates and he was a delight to chat with! He puts so much love and thought into every dish. He explained some of the inspirations for things on the menu which was fun! If you are vegetarian this place is a dream with tons of options! Do not be fooled, they are very filling. My husband and I shared the marinated white beans on toast, cauliflower, oyster mushroom and pesto spaghetti. All were great and delicious! Least fav (although still tasty) may have been the cauliflower cuz it's fried and gets a little heavy but the raisins in the dish are a nice surprise and treat! Although tapas style, the portions are generous. You can taste how fresh the Ingredients are in each dish as well. The pesto was a flavor bomb of fresh basil and garlic! The drinks are also top notch with interesting ingredient that create a wonderful medley together. Highly recommend trying a few. For dessert we shared the bay leaf cake and the creme brûlée- also delicious. I look forward to returning the next time I visit Madison. Also love how the restaurant ambiance is a homage to blanches lanai from golden girls! It's a fun space with great decor. Recommend getting there early as they don't take reservations and it gets very busy on the weekend! Highly recommend and overall a wonderful experience!

They clearly take risks in the best way, and it often pays off. The only reason I can't give five stars is an ongoing issue with salt levels. On a few occasions, dishes haven't just been slightly over-seasoned, they've been overwhelmingly salty to the point of overpowering the flavor and, at times, bordering on inedible. And that's coming from someone who genuinely enjoys salty food. When they get the balance right, the food is exceptional. I just wish the seasoning were more consistent.

Weary is an eclectic space that is full of a hodgepodge of artwork, mirrors, lighting, decor and a bunch of random items that just make sense together. The vibe here is uniquely local for this part of Madison and from the moment you enter through the large ornate wooden door, you are teleported into a special space where a good time is sure to be had! We have come here for Friday Fish Fry, weekday lunch and weekend brunch, and we have never left unhappy or hungry. The menu is made up of mostly classic dishes such as salads, soups, burgers and sandwiches, with a few mains like steak frites and pork chop. Brunch has your classic brunch dishes such as breakfast plates, biscuits and gravy, burrito and of course, French toast. The fish fry is excellent here, especially the pan fried version, which still provides the light, crisp and fresh fish but less the thick breading. For brunch, the breakfast burrito add sausage was spot on and super tasty! For cocktail, they have a stellar menu of house curated cocktails. For brunch, I went with the Bloody Mary and outside of brunch hours, I gravitate to the Killer Bees Knees gin based cocktail. I will grab a beer on occasion, but the cocktails are too good to pass up! Service is always stellar here whether we are sat in the dining room or bellied up to the bar. Overall, absolutely in love The Weary Traveler Freehouse!
