I was really looking forward to trying this place when one opened on Haggerty Rd nearby. I used the drive thru twice, once for a hamburger and fries and again for a fish and chips meal. I took them home to eat. The hamburger was overcooked and dry & the fries were limp and somewhat greasy. The fish meal was incomplete, as there was no coleslaw included. The fish texture was like it was cooked in old, overused oil. I wonder if the food is any better when eating in, but I'm not sure I'm going to try. read more

Today was my first time going to Culvers for food. Burger was okay... but I ordered a Gluten Free Bun. When my food arrived the burger and the fixins' were in a paper container and they gave me my bun, which had clearly been microwaved, in a warm sealed plastic bag... I might also add, it had been microwaved too long because it was starting to get hard once it started to cool down. Plus when I went to put my burger and fixins' on the bun it was not the easiest task so it was pretty messy. read more

A friend recommended this place so my other friend and I decided to give it a try. I guess I thought it was a real restaurant but it's not, it's fast food, pure and simple. Once I went inside I lowered my standards and hoped for the best. I ordered a Cheese Butter Burger while my friend got a Sourdough Melt (burger). We split chili cheese fries and deep fried cheese curds. First of all, nothing was hot. Secondly, everything needed salt. I mean EVERYTHING, even the burgers. Everything was very bland. The Butter Burgers are swimming in grease. I asked for extra pickles and asked for onions, neither happened. The cheese curds were bland and dry and didn't come with anything to dip them in. They are like mozzarella sticks, only chunks, and not good. Marinara sauce would've helped. Ranch dressing did not. The saving grace was supposed to be their fresh frozen custard. We picked out two pints and the cashier told me that it would be cheaper to buy 4 even though we didn't want 4 because 2 pints came to about $8 and 4 pints were about $9. They say it's their special deal but it's not and now I have a lot of frozen custard in my freezer that I don't want. We took our 4 custards back home and we sampled two. They were so bland we tried the other two. I was completely disappointed by all the excitement over this place. The double caramel chocolate peanut was the plainest vanilla flavor I've ever had, it wasn't really vanilla, it was white and it was sweet but flavorless. No caramel. Small amounts of chocolate bits her or there. 3 peanuts. The Caramel Fudge Cookie Dough was the same flavorless white custard but it had some caramel and cookie dough. It was okay at best. The Butter Brickle was more flavorful than the white custard but that's all I have to say about that. The last was a surprise and by far the best one but that's not saying much. It was the Really Reeces and it was chocolate custard that was good not great. It was overpriced for fast food that wasn't very good, most of it went in the trash and custard was pushed on me like it was a deal and now it's just taking up space in my freezer. Trash night can't get here soon enough. Ugh. read more

Culver's - Double caramel chocolate peanut but it should be called mostly vanilla w/no caramel or chocolate and 3 peanuts. Disappointing. - Fast Food Near Me - Madison Heights, Michigan

We used to love Culver's but the last six months or so the quality of the food has been horrible especially the french fries not being cooked all the way. I gave it three chances I will not be back for a long time if at all. How do you mess up french fries it should be a set time for how long you cook them so they're not under cooked. We are very disappointed. read more

Culvers is the fast food that we need, but do not deserve. I do not understand how McDonald's has an empire, but Culvers is here and there. They hands down have the most quality fast food that will ever grace your tastebuds. I had a fish sandwich here that was actually flaky! I've had delicious burgers and fries. Their custard is phenomenal too. There is not a single thing that I have had from Culvers that I didn't like. Oh and the customer service at this location is pretty great too. I've never had a bad experience and I wish these could take the location of every McDonald's that exists. In summary: Delicious quality food. Good prices. Quick and easy. Nice customer service. read more

Finally! They have a Culvers closer to where I live! I used to live in Milwaukee so I've eaten many meals at Culvers. Their Butter-Burgers are to die for! *Drools* If you want to take it up a notch, try ordering a Butter-Burger on Sour Dough Bread. OMG you're in for a treat! If you dont feel like a burger, definitely try their fried chicken. Their chicken is way much better than any other chicken places. I cant finish this review though until I tell everyone about my new favorite item: Culver's Crispy Chicken Sandwich! They have the best tasting Chicken Sandwich I have ever had! Try it! (You can thank me later haha). read more

Culver's - Heaven awaits - Fast Food Near Me - Madison Heights, Michigan

Store: Madison Heights, Michigan on W. 12 Mile Rd I normally love Culver's, but they really need to do something about the drive thru line wrapping around the adjacent Home Depot and Lowe's parking lots. They should increase hiring and put a few people outside taking orders. It's ridiculous! My wife and I went and waited in line for 40 minutes just to get a RARE hamburger. Rather have it burnt than rare. Need to do better. read more

First time to Culver's today. I was not impressed. Got the Butter Burger & cheese curds. I thought I was going to get a grease bomb since the word "Butter" was in the burger title. My burger was dry boring. I did not detect butter, and my meat patty was charred. The Cheese curds weren't big enough to be cheesingly satisfying. Some were so small that when you bit into it, there was no cheese cuz it all escaped out a hole in the breading when frying. :( Probably won't hit this place up again for food. Maybe will go back for a shake though..... read more

I dont know why i have never heard of this place. I was waiting on my friend to come pick me up today and was going thru my mail looking at coupons. i came across a coupon for this place and looked to see where one was at. we went and ate there and i have to say i was really impressed with the food. it was yummy. i also got a strawberry banana milk shake that we awesome as well. food was great will be going back read more

Love the burgers every time I come here. They're always fresh and tasty and always hot. The service is good and fast, as a fast food should be. The restaurant is clean, the bathrooms are clean and pretty much that's all that counts in a fast food restaurant with good service. If you're ever over by this particular restaurant stop in, it's awkward to get too but worth the maneuvering. read more

This was our first visit to a Culver's. The commercials seemed to indicate it was a family-style restaurant. It is nothing more than a dine-in drive thru, like a McDonalds. I had a Reuben (I know, they're not known for those but it sounded good at the time). It was burnt beyond belief! I can't even believe they brought it to our table like that. I had to have my husband get me a fork (which took two trips because everyone at the counter ignored him) so that I could remove the meat and cheese because that's all that was edible. We also had to go back two times to get the chocolate malt we ordered with our food. That's our last time to visit a Culver's! Not at all like it is advertised. I have to say the malt was good, but it sure isn't enough to make me go into a Culver's again. And just an FYI - I never return food in a place like that for fear of what they'd do to the replacement. read more

Just want to put it out there that I am rating Culver's as a Fast Food restaurant. So while it may not be a Michelin Star rated establishment, given the competition in the category it is competing in, Culver's easily earns 5 stars. It used to be that Culver's was a special treat if I was driving to Chicago (has been one in Kalamazoo and also in Jackson area for awhile). However when this one in Madison Heights opened up a couple years ago, I was super excited to finally have a Culver's close to home. The food here is delicious every time, and the staff is always super friendly and helpful. It is a fast food restaurant but they bring your food out to you, and employees are always stopping by to see if you need anything, or if they can bus items from your table for you. And they always seem so genuinely happy. Not something I am accustomed to in a fast food restaurant! I don't get their deserts very often, though the custard is quite good. I usually stick to the food. My favorite items are the beef pot roast sandwich, the cheese curds, and the bacon deluxe butterburger. The bacon deluxe is available in a "snack basket" with small fries and drink for a great value, something like $4.50 (not sure on the exact price, but it is cheap). Butterburgers are super tasty, you can't say you've lived until you've tried one. Although once you've tried one, you can also see why so many people in this part of the Midwest (Michigan/Wisconsin) are so incredibly obese!!! Ha. read more

Your standard Culvers, but getting in and out of the place can be a major pain. It is right off of the 12 mile exit on I-75 and share a lot/area with a Home Depot, Lowes and Starbucks. However, the frozen custard and fried cheese curds are great. read more

This place is trouble. The butter burgers are so good, and the cheese curds are amazing. Consider this your cheat day because you will be able to finish your meal, it's just that good! It's a better quality fast food and worth the extra wait in line! My husband raved about the Reuben sandwich and now has a hard time ordering what to get!! read more

I go here for lunch often because it's close by and the food is better quality compared to other fast food. Only complaints are that occasionally I don't get what I ordered but they correct it every time and They don't have any sort of rewards on their app. read more

McDonalds, Wendy's or any other fast food far exceeds anything Culver's has to offer and I don't like fast food places... Frozen fries from Kroger are delicious by comparison. I would not recommend this place at all with all of the other great options in Detroit metro. read more

Cheese curds, crispy ground beef, cheese isnt melted, lettuce, mayo, pickle, onion, tomato, traditional root beer, and excellent ice cream

Delicious burgers, fantastic custard and tons of other tasty items. Try the Wisconsin Cheese Curds....yum! Everything I've tried has been very good and fresh. ...and to top it all off...some of the friendliest service around. Kudos to the staff that do such a great job! read more

Wow Wow wow. Now THIS, THIS is how you do burgers. I usually don't eat burgers or any kind of "fast food" because of my regimen, but on my cheat day I decided to check this place out. Hell, I've lived by it for like 2 years and never stopped by. It's right next to the starbucks, and offers the kind of "one step-up" burgers that starbucks does to coffee. Pros: +LOTS of staff working. When I was there I saw at least 10 people working. that's pretty crazy. +Burgers are very soft and tasty. You can tell the meat patties are not frozen and pre-formed like McDonalds or Burger King. +They offer seafood and chicken. +The Chicken Tenders are pretty good. Not dry, but it didn't have the flaky white meat like you would get a chick-fil-a. +So Clean. Wtf? imagine Mcdonalds cleanliness like Chinatown, and Culvers would be like Koreantown. that's how clean it is compared to McDonalds. +they Have Ice Cream! Might have to hit up this place in the summer. +Staff very nice and neatly dressed. The aprons weren't dirty either. Cons: -My chicken tenders slightly burnt. But just the outside (it was a dark brown), the inside still pretty good. -TF is up with their honey mustard? It have the consistency of congealed gravy. Grosssssssss Whatever, Im glad i visited this place. it was well worth it! read more

Pumpkin spice shake. All that needs to be said. Fine, fine, a real review. Culvers is something of a Wisconsin institution revealed to me when I first moved to Chicagoland, and it stands above the usual fast food joint. Expect to wait a little longer for food that actually gets cooked when you order, to order no less. Their specialty butter burger is essentially a juicy burger on a buttery bun, served with the works, cheese, or a number of different varieties. They also carry a pretty nifty beef dip, melts, a decent chicken sandwich, and the essential cheese curd. Deep fried, bad; squeaking cheese, good. I rarely if ever indulge in their curds because they're so unhealthy but delicious, oh sinfully delicious. But you don't come to Culvers just for the burger any more than you go to Cupcake Station for a cookie. Come for the custard and, particularly, the lemon ices doused in berries during the summer. Culvers does a pretty roaring trade in custard; their standard flavours include a changing array that might be peanut butter, Turtle, or chocolate explosion of numtasticness. It's a real flavour, just ask. Thick milkshakes you could bounce a straw off of are tempting, and their concrete mixers are aptly named because you need one of those mixer trucks to keep it from solidifying into a human sweet-lick. I warn you: never get the largest size or you will very likely be sick. Culvers does a mad job with their shakes, and the pumpkin spice shake ordered on an indecisive lark absolutely replaces the Starbucks version. It may be cold, not hot, but the flavour is like sipping down a pumpkin pie with none of the nastiness. They get the blend of spices just right. All I need is a crust. A small is ample if you're hungry; otherwise share, and fight with a spoon. Culvers has a neat job of using fairly open-mouthed lids where multiple straws and spoons can stud your prey like hunters gone wild spearing the carcass of a prize wildebeest. Good service, pretty yummy food, at a price point comparable to much worse places. They're nice to dine in, too, very clean and spotless service. read more

Definitely worth the visit!! Best fast food burger and shake. Prices are along with other fast food restaurants

A fresh soft baked buttery bun stuffed with 2 seared ground beef patties, crisp strips of bacon, melted American cheese dripping off the sides of the burger, piled high with pickles, lettuce, vine ripe sliced tomatoes, thin cut red onions & mayo. OMG, it was so good, It tasted like Wendy's new improved burger on flavor steroids. The crinkle cut fries were OK, not the best compliment to the juicy burger. When your done placing your order they bring it to your table. On my next visit I may try the fish and one of those ice creams or the floats. read more

It's no secret I love Culvers. This location is nice because it's very close to my parents home. It assures that we won't starve on the way to the one in Roseville. There isn't anything WRONG with the one in Roseville, just that it's very far away. As for this location, its very nice, the food is Culvers good. Be sure to get the Cheese Curds. Gross name, GREAT food. For Dessert, my favorite is the Turtle Sundae. Doesn't this make you want one? read more

I've been to a few Culvers as there is one by my home and this one happens to be by work. Since I first had Culvers I fell in love with the "butter burger". If you've never had one they are very tender, juicy and fresh. Team that up with their wonderful selections for dessert and you've got great options for lunch or dinner. This location stands out to me for their friendly, fast service. Are there meal options that maybe a little cheaper? Yes. The difference for me is being treated like a guest and not a dollar sign. You do have to wait for your order, but wouldn't you rather eat it freshly prepared or now? I have had a mishap or two with my orders but based on the average of how often I choose them over some place else it works out to a small margin. As I said the service stands out. If they do make a mistake , (and we're human so we all do), they are quick to correct it and very cordial about it. So if you haven't tried them you should. Or if another Culvers left a bad taste in your mouth so to speak, give these guys a try. Quality stuff served with a side of hospitality. read more

After hearing much ado about how great the butter burgers were I finally dined there yesterday. Had a butter burger and cheese curds. Nothing bad about either of them Just a normal burger and curds. Sorry but doubtful to return Way too many better burgers in the area. Jim read more

Love Culver's so much. It gets the gold standard for fast food in the area - heck, in the Midwest. The Butter Burgers are delicious. They actually taste like meat that has been cooked, not microwaved. Soft buns, great thick pickles. Sooo tasty. And the krinkle fries are excellent. The menu at Culver's is eclectic and awesome. They have everything from pot roast to cheese curds, and they're a fast food joint. As an added bonus, there's something about the corporate culture at Culver's, where the restaurant is kept exceedingly clean and there's a real focus on customer service, which is sorely lacking from other local fast food places. read more

I love love love Culver's, it's affordable and very tasty and I appreciate hand scooped custard nobody does it that way. I'm in love with the menu period. read more

This place surely amazed me.. Fast food prices but good restaurant experience! The staff is delightful, happy and polite. The place is clean, fresh and well kept. Food was excellent and they have patio seating. Frankly, my service and satisfaction was better than in several places where you pay over $100 for a dinner...Keep it up folks! Give yourself a pleasure of checking them out! Strongly recommended read more

I went through the drive thru line on Monday around 6:00. Order was accurate, food was hot and the staff was smiling and very friendly! Really made up for the bad day I was having. Nice job everyone! read more

So as far as FAST FOOD goes it gets five stars from me every day. Service: Quick usually friendly and accurate. Cleanliness: clean and neat appearance as well as clean bathrooms. Quality: every order is fresh and made to order. Piping hot fries burgers ect. Good quality food as well, makes for always a tasty experience. Value: fair prices for the great quality. Plus the offer text coupons and email coupons. Great place to grab lunch or dinner. They have a good sized menu as well as awesome frozen custard for dessert. If you haven't eaten here yet, all I got to say is, What have you been waiting for? read more

This was my second visit to a Culvers. First time at this location. I had the Butterburger,they ask you if you would like lettuce & tomato on the burger. I think its smart that the cashier asks you if you would like your burger prepared like the menu. I also had the Strawberry milk shake. The butterburgers are amazing. The taste of the meat is terrific. As you walk in the restaurant you smell the amazing grilling smell in the air. The milkshake is delish. its the same custard I believe as the scoops & pints for sale. The Food is brought out to your table with a little number. I ordered my food to go, & the girl that prepared my shake brought it to me as the counter before my food came out,& she asked me If I wanted it stored in the nearby freezer until my food came out. When the food was ready she brought my still perfect shake out to me. This was a nice courtesy to the customers. I will certainly return next time im in the area!! read more

Pot Roast sandwich value basket last night. Good flavor, good service, great price. This was the 2nd time I tried Culver's and I can say that it is a solid option and a step above the run of the mill fast food greasery. read more

This was our first time to a Culvers, meeting some friends for lunch. The food was a great value. My husband, a burger lover said that was one of the best burgers he's had in a long time--for a fast food joint. Onion rings and cheese curds were hot, crunchy and tasty. I tried the smoothie and expected it to be made with a fruit syrup. It actually had delicious fresh blueberries and it tasted so refreshing that I know I'll be back for another one! The service was surprisingly friendly, patient, knowledgeable and they served us at our table, brought us spoons and did not expect a tip. We'll be back! read more

Ughhhhh im not gonna drag out a big long story because there food was good. however we went there for a family members birthday and the manager was so flippen rude and obnoxious over someone asked for extra onion on their burger he ended up making the them cry i was pissed off and said something to him, he actually made a staff member chase after us offering a free birthday desert ya right ill never go back! read more

My opinion on this restaurant is clearly in the minority; I did not like it at all. Everyone talks about how great it is and based on what I heard, I was under the impression that is was more of a fast casual/quick service place than fast food...that is definitely not the case. It was very busy which I took as a good sign, but I am assuming that due to how busy it was, the staff could not keep up and it was very dirty. And I was not impressed with the food either. While the burger did taste good and I like the fluffy soft bun, I could not get over the amount of grease/butter coming off of it. Usually if I have a 'drippy' burger it is caused from the juiciness of the burger, not lard dripping off of the bun. It was so messy I wish it came with a person to feed it to me so I didn't have to touch it. I also ordered the cheese curds and the only word I would use to describe the flavor was 'fried'. Even the teenage boy eating with me was not impressed at all and could not believe how greasy it was. He did order custard as well and he said that it is the best fast food custard he has had, but what is that really saying? Well, I tried it...and I will not be coming back. read more

Edited: I've had a few decent experiences at Culvers, but today I stopped by for for my new guilty pleasure, a blackberry lemonade Chiller. I got into a small drive-thru line at 10:26. I know they were closing at 10:30, but there was one car ahead on I had one item. I sat at the box to order until 10:29 before someone came on and "we're closed" and shut off all the lights. Not a happy camper. read more

Thought last time was a fluke. But this is the 2nd time in a row I've left unhappy. Place is dead and well staffed yet everything tasted like it was sitting around. The tenders tasted like fish and shrimp and were just warm not hot like they normally are, the fries were just warm, and the burger was cold. Done with this place. Bunch of lazy bums in the kitchen. read more
