The food is great. Very fresh. The employees look happy and the service is great. That combination gives you confidence. It's a great environment and has a great ambiance. The soda fountains were clean. It's a nice place to take the kids, almost has the feel of a nice restaurant but not awkward and no tipping which is great if you dislike the bait and switch pricing caused by tipping culture most restaurants seem to be pushing. read more

I went through the drive-thru. When I got to my hotel, I realized they had given me the wrong salad dressing. And there were no utensils or napkins. Ugh. read more

Culver's is top tier fast food in my opinion. I frequent this location on a regular basis. I always order on the drive thru, so I cannot comment on the dine in experience. I've had a few instances where condiments are not in the bag. This used to happen a lot more in the past, but it seemed to be better lately. The staff generally does a great job. If you haven't been to Culver's, you really can't go wrong. But burgers are an obvious solid choice. Both the cheese curds and onion rings are amazing sides. One sleeper pick is the fish. Culver's fried cod looks like something you would get at a pub. They also do walleye seasonally around Lent. There are some other seasonal items like the curdburger, which is extremely indulgent but a must try. read more

Culver's has great food, wonderful customer service, and is a huge sponsor and supporter of the Lee's Summit community. The restaurant is well maintained and always clean. We've been going to this location for over 20 years and will continue to go there for years in the future! read more

Purchased a Fish sandwich. $8.44, not a bad price. But the fish came out sort of the shape of a hot dog only larger. Only covered half of the hamburger bun. It was ok, but I ended up throwing away half of the burger bun. Should be served on a fancy hot dog bun or something in my opinion. Food was average, the service was great. Think I will stick to the burgers. read more

Always quick service, hot fresh meals, and cold concrete ice cream at competitive prices.

This is what you get when you order mashed potatoes and gravy. They must be proud of the portioning. By the way the container has a quarter of an inch deep indent in the bottom of it as well. Every time I have ordered mash potatoes this is the portion I get, so it is not a fluke. This is the 5th time now. Their food is good but the mashed potatoes are always served this way. I keep hoping... read more

Excellent food and great staff. Love this place. Great for the whole family. Bacon cheeseburgers are Amazing!

I love Culver's. Today is my B-day. If you belong to their rewards club you get a free scoop with a topping. Their toppings on their Sundaes are generous. And who can resist Cheese Curds? My favorite protein snack on the go. I have always found the staff to be efficient and friendly. read more

This is the burger you were looking for. What a fun location and a brilliant staff! We were in town visiting on Chiefs football Sunday and enjoyed watching the game on TV with the locals. What a treat I got to enjoy the best mushroom and Swiss burger I've had in years and it was truly a treat, my wife also enjoyed her hamburger but said mine was better. We both enjoyed the custard. I have decided that Freddy's wants to be Culvers when they grow up. Culvers is the OG and still the king. You will not be disappointed here, in fact, you will be quite pleased. read more

Culver's - Burger and fries - Fast Food Near Me - Independence, Missouri

I love Culver's and think it's one of the best fast casual burgers around. I put it a hair better than In and Out, and when factoring for the discounted price, equal with Shake Shack. This location always does a great job getting the perfect sear on the burger patties. The staff has always been great too. read more

Every time I go here the food is fresh, delicious, and I'm met with great service. I think the only time they've ever messed up was not putting a straw with my drink. This place is outstanding.. read more

Average hamburger stand at best nothing bad, but nothing exceptional would recommend it for families as a inexpensive out

I will never understand the obsession with Culver's. So few places are offering Cheese Curds anymore and so with Sonic getting rid of Ched R Bites I figured I'd come back to Culver's after a decade+ and give it another shot. Well, that was a mistake. Why does a place from Wisconsin get their cheese curds frozen from Cysco? Seriously they should be disowned by CheddarHeads for that. They aren't even good frozen cheese curds. They taste like the cheap Snapps brand you get at the grocery store. Lastly, putting butter on top of a bun does not make a butter-burger. Im sure they've since changed their marketing on the burger but it was still just as dry and flavorless as ever. So maybe if they would have changed the burger to meet the marketing they could have a better product on their hand. Service was good and usually worth an extra star but the fact that a Wisconsin staple has such terrible cheese curds just makes this place irredeemable. read more

Not sure why all the hate here on Yelp. In my experience, this location is pretty great. There's a decent amount of parking. The dining room is very clean and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. They always greet you as you enter. The menu is broken down into sections and is easy to read. I highly recommend one of their ButterBurgers, the cheese curds, and a shake. You order first and a staff member will bring the food to your table when it's ready. There's a drink station where you can fill/refill your own drinks. Definitely worth checking out if you've never had Culver's before and you are in the area. read more

While they did forget my fries, I called and they very politely offered to make it right. Very good customer service. Great job McKenzie!

I stopped by the drive thru at the Little Blue Parkway location in Independence on an early Thursday afternoon for a fish sandwich. I hadn't been to a Culver's for at least a year due to a couple of unfortunate experiences, but I had a coupon, so I thought I'd give them another try. I ordered their Icelandic cod fillet sandwich, regular fries, and a chocolate shake, for which I had a $1 coupon. My total came to $11 - a bit more pricey than your ordinary burger joint. The chocolate shake was delightful - rich, creamy, and chocolatey - thick, but not too hard to suck through the straw. The crinkle-cut fries were hot, with the perfect balance of crispy and tasty. They didn't include ketchup, but luckily I had a couple of packets in my car. But the sandwich? No. Just - no. First of all, it was excessively small. It had apparently shrunken in the last year. It looked fine, except for its size. It was appropriately hot, and had lettuce shreds, cheese shreds, and what I assume was tartar sauce on it. The texture was fine. But it was absolutely devoid of flavor. It was like biting into a movie prop made to look like and feel like a fish sandwich. No flavor at all. I looked at it. I sniffed it. No scent. If I hadn't just enjoyed the taste and smell of fries and a shake I'd have thought the Covid-19 had stripped me of my ability to taste and smell. There was absolutely no flavor at all. None. Zip. Zilch. Nada. I don't know how they did it. But they somehow managed to produce an absolutely flavorless fish sandwich. For $11, I expect more than fries and a shake. I probably won't be back. read more

Mushroom Swiss is good! Lots of employees to make service run smooth. They also sell their ice cream in pints! Onion rings were crispy! The sitting area is always super busy read more

Love Culver's . Last time I went there was a truck parked across the drive-thru so I was really confused . A young man came running up to us and said our electricity is out and it's out at Arby's and out at other places and handed us free Ice Cream coupons . He was very sweet and very polite . And though we did not get to eat at Culver's . Every experience before has been wonderful. Great place love the fries read more

Independence finally got a Culver's. It's easy to forget that it's there, I mean, Independence doesn't get many places, and I usually end up eating somewhere in Lee's Summit. That actually includes Google Fiber, even though you don't eat Google Fiber. I did remember that Culver's was there, and stopped in to eat. I ordered my usual patty melt with French fries,I think it was only 7.69 or something. Came with a medium drink. I really like Culvers. I've never had a bad experience at one, and the cheeseburgers are really good. Seriously, it's way better than McDonald's,and at the price of a quarter pounder, skip it and go to Culvers. the Swiss cheese tastes like Swiss cheese, and not cardboard. There's alot of it, and I enjoyed the sandwich. I found excellent service, and a clean dining room. I didn't appreciate a couple of the staff complaining about how long their work hours were in front of the customers. That needs to be done away from customers. The food was near perfection, but dag-nabbit, I was too full for a caramel/cashew sundae. Go figure. read more

Came in for a few concretes. Staff was super friendly, restaurant is clean and concretes are super tasty - well mixed and thick. They know what they are doing here! Looking forward to coming back. read more

Big huge butter burgers and rich custard, what more could you ask for? Some cheese curds? Okay, we'll throw those in. Culver's is a fast food burger chain from our northern neighbors in Wisconsin and while most of the menu is comparable to similar places the brazen use of cheddar cheese, cheese curds and frozen custard help set it apart. My eyes, taste buds and stomach love it. My waistline not as much (but when has that ever mattered?) read more

We went to Culver's for the very first time tonight (Little Blue Pkwy location). I was looking for somewhere to get a good ice cream sundae and Culver's came up in google when I was looking so, we figured we would give it a shot. For dinner we ordered a Grilled Chicken Sandwich and Onion Rings for my wife and a Double Cheeseburger (with Everything) basket for me. We got charged for a Grilled Chicken Basket ($3.40 difference, should have rung up at 5.89 instead rang up at 9.29) and then we got charged $1.30 for the onion rings. The onion rings should have been 3.49, I finally figured out that since the basket includes Fries, we got charged the difference between the Fries and the Onion Rings ($1.30). So, we should have been charged $9.39 and instead we were charged 10.59. When the food came out my Double Cheeseburger with everything had nothing on it. I took it back to the counter and explained the problem to the manager. No apology offered that I recall but she asked if I wanted all the trimmings on the side, I said no, please put them on the burger. She proceeded to give them to me on the side. I was charged an extra 20 cents for the "everything". We then went out to patio to eat our food. I had to clean the table off from someone spilling ice cream at some point in the past. Sat down, put my burger together, got most of the way through it and realized that it had not come with any Cheese. Not sure what the price difference was but I got charged for the double Cheeseburger and was given the double burger. We finished eating and since I was really there for the ice cream, we went in to order our ice cream. My wife ordered a Chocolate Concrete Mini. They come with 2 sides so she added Cookie Dough and Brownie Pieces. I ordered a Caramel Cashew Sundae. They bring me 2 nasty looking concoctions, don't look like any of the pictures in the place. I then decided to talk to the manager. There was a guy in front of me waiting to talk to the manager too. Manager comes out and the guy explains his issues and she goes to take care of him. Then she starts helping in the front. I catch her attention and explained that I needed to talk to her too. I tell her about the chicken basket, I tell her about the double cheeseburger with no cheese and no everything and then I show her the ice cream concoctions and ask if they look like any of the pictures. She then tells me that what I have is not a sundae but is a concrete mini, so I ask her why that is when I ordered and paid for a sundae. She asks me if I want the sundae instead and I'm like duh, yes. I did not ask for any money back and at the end she apologized, very poorly, with an I'm sorry. Manager was young, as was the crew, need a lot off training in handling customers if you ask me. We then went back outside to eat our concoctions which is when I noticed that we got charged an extra 35 cents on my wife's concrete mini. We got charged for 1 of the 2 add ins. They charged he for the chocolate as if it were an add in, it is not supposed to be, it says clearly on the menu concrete, chocolate or vanilla up to 2 add ins. After we ate the ice cream I went back in. The front of the restaurant had no customers in it but about 10 or so workers. I decided to take the opportunity to inform the girls who had rang up our desserts of the screw ups. Somebody came to help her and asked me if I wanted the 35 cents back. I told her no, that it is not about the money, that it is about this being our first time ever in a Culver's and having 4 mistakes in one order. It was actually 5 mistakes, I realized later. I gave a quick little lecture on if you want to keep customers coming back that this isn't the way to do it. That this is about caring enough about your job to do it properly. Probably went in one ear and out the other, but I tried. On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being best, I give it a 2), I did not give it a zero because at least the people working there seemed nice. I will not be back again. read more

Good burgers, friendly service, lots of sides to choose from. Never had a bad experience there. We always go in with coupons so get the buy one get ones and so far, everything has turned out right. You can't judge a place by going there one time unless it's just really bad. Been to Culvers many times and so far batting a 1000. read more

Absolutely the best fish around these parts! You can get 1, 2, 3 pieces. I get the 2 piece and I'm quite satisfied when I leave, of course only after some custard! read more

Culver's in Independence is finally here and I was excited to give it a try the other day with Hubby. I was quite hungry, so ordered a double Sourdough Melt Combo, as did hubs. Maybe it was me, but it wasn't as tasty as the butter burgers I'm more familiar with. The grilled onions were so skimpy that they might as well have left them off the sandwich and hubby and I both noticed that each sandwich had one lone dill pickle slice which was kind of laughable. Have pickles suddenly become a scarce commodity? I did like the flavor of the grilled bread--the butter flavor really came through and the crinkle cut fries were first rate. The service at this location is still one of Culver's strengths --- friendly, cheerful, helpful and the sandwiches & fries reached our table very quickly after our order was placed. I've always enjoyed visits to other Culver locations and I know I will give this one another chance to 'wow me' soon. But for now, I am giving this facility a solid three-star rating. read more

I literally did not recieve one ounce of of the meal that was fully paid for. If I wasn't so introverted I would have absolutely caused a dramatic scene because I need the food that I ordered. I ordered the Culver's double deluxe. I am currently still waiting on the food that has been paid for. read more

WAY OVERPRICED & pretty slow in the drive thru, But got friendly service and good food!

If I could give zero stars I would. This Culvers is consistently horrible when it comes to getting orders right for my family. In fact they are so bad at it that I can't remember the last time we didn't have to go back inside to either get fries that they forgot to put in when we ordered basket MEALS or have them fix a mistake such as getting a single burger when a double was ordered. The only reason we even still eat here is because my mother is gluten intolerant and they are one of very few places she can eat a burger thanks to the gluten free buns. I highly recommend eating somewhere else as while the food is great the service is ridiculously bad. They will even repeat back to you exactly what you ordered and still type it in wrong so that you get the wrong thing when they bring it out then, you don't even have proof that it was wrong thanks to their mistakes with simply pressing buttons like they did tonight. My family is going to try to find other places we can eat from now on as this lazy and bad service has been an ongoing problem for the last YEAR! read more

Very good burgers and pumpkin custard. Also liked the cheese curds. The staff was super friendly. So please give it a try. read more

Went to Culvers twice while on vacation in Missouri and it was amazing. Best ice cream I've ever had and the guy making it (Dalton) was by far the best fast-food worker I've ever encountered. He was friendly, fast and took care of our 6 person order with speed and efficiency. A true professional, definitely going places. I'd recommend Culvers to anyone looking for a good quality, fast treat. read more

Yes, yes, and YES. They have their stuff in ORDER!! The dining room was clean, the employees were quite pleasant and the lady taking our order was quite helpful since it was our first time going to a Culver's since we've never lived near one before.
