I have to tell others about my local Culver’s, my parents (married for over 60 years) would eat inside there for their weekly date night often and the staff knew them well and would greet them by name.
My Mother passed away last January after catching the flu from resulting complications. My Dad went back a few weeks later by himself for the first time ever, and the front counter staff knew something was wrong. He told me that the whole staff came out from behind the counter and hugged him.
I don’t eat there often as they are on the other side of town but I will always have good things to say about the restaurant and the employees’ compassion they showed my father.
Yeah. Culvers is a "working owner" franchise. Every owner has to put in at least 40 hrs a week to maintain their flag. So you get a lot of hands on managment and community driven locations.
They are one of the only chains that I’ve pulled up to with a literal bus full of 50-60 teenagers and they were excited for us to be there!
Manager even came out towards the end with free small cups of custard for whoever wanted it.
Oh, bus drivers and coaches ate free 😉 ANYTHING you want, no stipulations like some of the other places.
I literally had kids on a trip where their production ran late so we were trying to eat somewhere at 8pm. Taco Bell locked the doors and said their dining area was closed. Another place said they closed in an hour (website said 11).
So when we go to a place where the staff is actually excited to see us and nice?!!! It amazes me. Culver’s all the way!
They have really good cheese curds too 🤤 Making me hungry.

Culvers is the best in my opinion. Plus their custard is awesome. Perfect Midwest sunset treat in the summer.
