It's no secret that I'm a big time fan of Culver's. While I'm not quite willing to call it a…read moreperfect 5-star experience, it's one of the few chains where I consistently have a good experience. I was in Shelbyville checking out a couple of cars. My friend and I decided to grab a sandwich. As she knew of my fondness for Culver's, she immediately suggested this location. Culver's is a national chain with local ownership. There are certain things you can always depend on - interior and exterior design is generally consistent, Butterburgers, friendly employees (the entire recruiting vibe emphasizes family and a supportive environment), and a menu that is generally consistent from location to location. This location did seem to have a larger than usual parking lot. Culver's tends to do well with accessibility features, and they do offer outdoor tables (you order at the counter inside or the drive-thru). I'd always had a fondness for Culver's as my mother used to sell them their food in Central Indiana. However, during my cancer journey I found that butterburgers became a food worked on my stomach even during chemo. I have no idea why, but it was consistently true. I'm not particularly fond of the fries. Sometimes, I get a combo with cole slaw. Sometimes, I'll splurge on onion rings. I frequently just get a double butterburger with my unsweetened iced tea. This visit was quite positive. The employees were friendly, efficient, and quite professional. The food was tasty. The iced tea actually had ice in it (the Culver's by my house has a tendency to hand me an iced tea that has no ice - I have no idea why.). This was a quick visit. I would easily return. I always think Shelbyville is way far away. While I wouldn't say it's close to my Lawrence home, it's actually a pretty easy drive and a cool little city to visit.

First let me say I stopped in for Lunch while traveling…read more I will also say that Culver's has the best fast food burgers. Now, I pulled in to a still heavily snowed parking area. Don't get me wrong there was plenty of parking but you could tell they are still dealing with the snow. I walked in and was immediately taken care of. I placed my order got a number and sat down. My food was out before I even had time to check my email and texts. My burger and curds came out hot and my milkshake was super thick. I always eat my curds first as eating them cold is not my favorite. So I enjoyed them, then I tried my shake, still too thick to drink. Burger, deluxe butter burger. It was very good. Starting to cool down a little. Shake still thick. Burger was perfectly yummy. Finished it at the table. Wiped my mouth. Shake still thick so I took it with me. I finally got to enjoy the shake without trying to suck a golf ball through a garden hose, about 20 minutes into my drive home. As always still my favorite fast food place.

We didn't order much spice given we didn't know what to expect. We should have. We definitely could have handled more. Food ranking is 1. Banana Pudding 2. Loaded Mac 3. Waffle Fries 4. Cheese seasoning tenders ( the surprise of the meal) 5. Mild Jr. Sando 6. Honey Bbq boneless wings 7. Funnel Cake fries (disappointing) We did have a pleasant experience overall. The restaurant is in an old Burger King so for me that was odd since I remember eating in that Burger King as a kid. We will probably return and try other things and try more heat.

I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the mood for a delicious chicken meal.

All in all, I thought this place was above average compared to other chicken establishments. Inside, this place was very nice and it felt upscale. This place had a nice dining room with great decorations and ambience. It was a little busy inside but the menu was mid-sized which wasn't too bad at all. Staff here was not too friendly at all unfortunately. I ordered their chicken sandwich meal and it came out in a decent time. The food was really good and the fries weren't too bad though they were poorly seasoned. All in all I thought I was a slightly above average chicken establishment. Much cleaner though then most establishments and competitors.

Well that's an hour of my life we will never get back! So…read morefirst of all - we placed our order with the cashier and paid cash. Why is it that people don't know how to make change? If you inputted the wrong amount of money we gave you then the change you give us will be wrong! We witnessed it happen to the customer behind us too! Another employee stepped forward, pulled out her phone and told the cashier what to give that customer in change. I guess we should have said something about us getting short changed but it was less than a quarter. Then we waited and waited for our food to arrive. When it did - it was wrong for both of our sandwiches! We took the first hamburger back and they remade it correctly. We were still waiting for my cheeseburger. When my cheeseburger arrived, the wrapping was covered in ketchup and I discovered my cheeseburger was just a hamburger. No cheese. I just ate it and we headed out. For fast food, it never should have taken this long. There were more people working that we could see (8) and we only witnessed 7 customers including us. If you have the extra time and don't mind getting short changed and receive what you didn't order then I recommend this Wendy's to you. Not for me!

(I will still stand by that it's too expensive for what it is.) Staff were not overly welcoming when we walked in, more like you have to tell them you're here to order and then they greet you. The kitchen staff were also dropping things on the ground and the cashiers were having to remind them it now has to be washed, which I did not like that they needed that reminder! My husband and I split the loaded tots, overall these were underwhelming but he liked them. We also shared the large Italian grinder. This is a great sharing size. Flavor was good and satisfied my craving. I did like that the brought our grinders out on two separate plates since we had mentioned we were sharing it!

Describing this as a place for comfort food sets expectations perfectly for this restaurant on the…read moreoutskirts of Shelbyville. It is a simple, hometown Midwestern style spot that reminds me of the places I used to go with my parents in the 60s and 70s. The diminutive, squared-off standalone facade centered in a small parking lot exudes that homey vibe. And the interior is exactly what you'd expect based on the exterior. The simple but well-kept tables and booths are typical of Mid-American diners. It was our daughter's birthday and comfort food was what she wanted. There were five of us (four adults and one child) so we called ahead. They were gracious enough under the circumstances to set aside a larger 6-person corner table for us to allow us to be seated right away despite it being a relatively busy Friday evening at 6 PM. Our server, Wendi, did a great job taking care of us. She was prompt and attentive without being intrusive. The menu was chicken-centric as the restaurant name clearly implies. One intriguing side item that seemed to be a signature for them were the fried biscuits. They were essentially fried pieces of dough sprinkled with powdered sugar with apple butter spread that we used as a dip. They were memorable and made nice starters. All of our mains were, of course, chicken dinners. Dark and white meat ensembles were both available. There was a nice variety of sides and our party opted for various combos that included onion rings, green beans, cottage cheese, baked potato and mashed potatoes. And of course, American-style dinner rolls accompanied each meal. It was all very tasty. I'll also note that their coffee was reasonably good. My wife, our 4-yr-old granddaughter and I were able to split one three-piece dinner making this a fabulous value. The total bill with food, drinks, tax and tip was $85. At just over $21 per adult, it was a good value by today's standards. I'll gladly give this place five stars. They're unpretentious, deliver exactly what you're led to expect, and they pull it off very well. We'll go back if we have the chance.
