After seeing Culver's popping up across the US with an aggressive expansion path, I finally had an opportunity to try their signature Butterburger. I oped for cheese, with onions, mustard, ketchup and lettuce. Like so many menu items these days, the burger was not massively impressive in terms of serving size for the price. Now, the Butter bun was unique and tasty. All of their burgers seem to be served with two freshly-made patties that are relatively thin. It's an interesting way to serve the same amount of meat in one single patty. The burger overall tasted fresh, but still had the mostly common makings of a menu item from a chain restaurant. Will I go back for another try at Culver's? Very likely. read more

My wife and I love Culver's. The butter burger is delicious. The service is exemplary. The custard is to die for. For a quality lunch or dinner and a great dessert, I would definitely recommend giving Culver's a try. You won't be disappointed. read more

This was my very first time visiting Culver's, and if first impressions are a good sign of what's to come, I'm definitely excited to return again and again! I received a friendly coupon in the mail welcoming me to the neighborhood, and while reading it, I noticed they have a rewards program through their app, so I happily downloaded it. When I arrived at the restaurant, I chose to dine in because I wanted to ask some questions about the menu items. I'm a very visual person, so instead of reading everything, I decided to check out their colorful menu displayed on the marquee. It took a little while because there was a couple ahead of me asking a lot of questions, but the staff was so patient and helpful. When it was my turn, I asked about what is a butter burger, and Ashley, the manager, explained that it's called that because the buns are buttered. Having never tried something like that at a restaurant, I found it sounded incredibly tasty! To my surprise, they had a Swiss mushroom burger on the menu, so I ordered that as a combo and decided to upgrade with crispy onion rings--they were so delicious and perfectly crunchy, and I couldn't resist eating them first! I loved that I could customize my soda with as much or as little ice as I wanted since they have a soda fountain, and I could help myself to ketchup and mustard from the refill dispensers, or use the packets if I preferred. Ashley explained that since I downloaded the app, I could get a discount on my first order and earn bonus points, which I took advantage of, keeping a $10 off coupon for a future visit--there's generally a 90-day expiration on the mailing coupon, so I'll be sure to use it soon. It's such a great perk to download the app because you get a discount and earn rewards! I also treated myself to their special strawberry vanilla custard, which was truly delicious. While reading the paper placemat, I learned that this company started in Wisconsin back in 1984. My double Swiss mushroom burger was cooked perfectly, and I opted to add raw onions instead of grilled, which was a tasty choice. The bun was flavorful and toasted just right--never soggy. I really appreciate how they recognize their employees with plaques on the wall and how spotless the restrooms are, plus they have a baby changing table stocked with supplies, which is thoughtful for families. The restrooms also had beautiful fresh flowers on the sink--a delightful touch I've rarely seen in fast food places! I definitely look forward to visiting again whenever I crave a delicious burger, tasty sides, and a fantastic frozen dessert. I also love that they ask for feedback on the back of the receipt, where you answer some quick questions, get a validation code, and can enjoy a free dessert next time. The manager asked about my experience and genuinely seemed interested--I told her everything was wonderful! read more

We walked into a long line of people waiting for a cashier...then a cashier walked through the crowd announcing that systems were down and the only option was to order from the table. We were able to find a table quickly and ordering from the table was easy to do (you can sign in to the app from web ordering and apply discounts from your app account which is nice). The joint was hopping with a full wrap in drive-thru and the dining area about 1/3rd full. It took 26 minutes to get our order and once received, the server forgot our drinks. Our food did not look appetizing and after sitting there for that long and starving, I wasn't eager to eat. It looked like someone sat on the butter burger bun top and my onion rings were so over fried or the oil was old, that the rings were dark, dark brown. To make matters worse, the burgers and sides were lukewarm at best. I wanted to desperately love the pub burger but it was incredibly dry...even the fresh veggies couldn't bring enough moisture to make it taste good. The garlic sauce was just a hint of garlic...I was hoping for a burst of flavor. At least the cheese was melted, though cold melted from sitting so long. At least the fountain drinks were good. read more

When ordering I asked for the single butter burger basket and added a cheese curd side. I was handed a number and sat down at a table. When the food came it was minus the fries and drink cup. I told the delivery employee and a cup was retrieved but no fries. Not the end of the world and they were busy. Instead I ordered some crinkle cut fries with cheddar sauce and more cheese curds from the table, online (it'll tell them which table you're at). This worked just as advertised. The food was super good, awesome burger and as mentioned, the curds were good enough to get a second order. Yumm. I'm glad too as I rode 380 miles just to try a Culver's out. This was the closest one to me and it was worth the trip. read more

Our daughter told us she liked Culvers so today, Sunday, we came for lunch. It was about 1:15 and the place was crowded, which is good for Culvers. My wife ordered a Butter Burger, no cheese or mayo, and fries. I ordered the Sourdough Melt and fries. We cleaned our own table, which I get as the place was crowded and the staff were working hard. We got our food in a timely way. Unfortunately, my wife's had cheese on it. She brought the burger back up to the counter and they were apologetic, and brought another out fairly quickly, but alas, this one had mayo on it. So, like so many other reviewers, our order was not made right. The patties are thin but they are flavorful. The krinkle cut fries are average. I like mine crispy. Don't know if you can ask for them that way but otherwise I would not order them again. The staff are nice, but the ambience is fast-food busy, not tidy or especially clean, and the food so-so. I don't think we will be back. Too many other places to choose from. read more

My family loves Culver's and this is a great location. This was my first time trying the gluten free bun and WOW ! It was fantastic! Also one of the cheapest up charges I've seen in the Treasure Valley (a little over a dollar)! My only complaint about this location is sometimes the dining room gets pretty messy. If you go make sure you try their root beer! The diet version is fantastic! read more

LOVE Culver's! Look at my Culver's reviews. Literally, I have seen BETTER organized riots! Gave our order in slow fashion, paid for it and 20 minutes later the Mrs goes up and asks about it. "Here you go", was the response and it wasn't what we ordered!!!! Wife had to give them the order, AGAIN, then about 5-10 minutes later our order was done. Amazing! I know they were busy and perhaps had a newer staff, but I have never, ever, at a Culver's....... I would be hard pressed to go to this Culver's again which is sad! read more

Dinner and ice cream both delicious. It was packed on a Friday night, so it took some time for the food to arrive. Ordering dessert from the table QR code was nice! read more

I dont think they even earned 1 star. Im from WI where there are family owned culvers and everyone is so happy and kind and helpful. This location there was not one single smile and I asked him to make a chocolate orio volcano because they didnt have many pints at all and he said thats not the flavor of the day and I asked if he can do chocolate with the toppings and he said he couldn't which ive never heard of I said I can pay whatever the extras is and he saod no. There was no politeness no smiles and bad service... ALSO worker said its the mcdonalds of WI which is extremely disrespectful.. read more

Heard many good things about this place. Very attractive building, great menu, good service, but, my wife and I were both somewhat disappointed with the food, my burger was HUGE, but the bun was stale and hard? My wife had a fish sandwich which was somewhat tasteless. We drove 12 miles to try this place and will most likely not seek it out again, will most likely go to the HABIT or Freddy's for fast food. The cheese curds were hard and overcooked. read more

Ah, this place always good after doing something that helps my good looks. The burger tasted top quality and cheese curds were great honestly. Service was easy and simple like always which was pretty nice to see. My mother found you keep fresh flowers in your bathroom lovely addition I think. Will be munching again many thanks .w. read more

I visited this location of Culver's with my brother-in-law, and unfortunately, the staff behind the counter seemed to have a negative attitude, especially towards the customers. When my brother-in-law went up to order, the girl at the register (my receipt lists her as Reg3) wouldn't even look at him while he placed our order. Instead, she kept glancing at me or at anything other than him. This felt quite strange, especially since I had never been to a Culver's before; however, my brother-in-law frequently visited because he enjoyed the food and custard. As a first-time visitor, I found the associates to be rude, unfriendly, and unprofessional. It was disappointing that the only staff member who smiled or offered a kind word was the busser on my way out; he told me to "have a nice rest of my day." I will say that the food was hot, but my sandwich had almost no condiments--it was as if they had scraped them off. As a result, it lacked flavor, which was surprising considering how my brother-in-law had raved about their delicious and flavorful sandwiches. To add insult to injury, I noticed that the employees were offering free samples of their custard to other customers. While I was eating, I watched them kindly offer custard to every table except for my brother-in-law and me. It was astonishing; even the people in the booth next to us commented on how odd it was that we were skipped. I genuinely don't care if the food had been the most delicious I'd ever tasted (which it wasn't); I would still never return to this location. It was disheartening, especially since my brother-in-law was upset that I disliked the experience as much as I did and found my food both unappetizing and lacking. I would rate this location a 0 out of 10 and definitely would not recommend it. They need to improve their employee training in customer service and learn to smile while on the job. It's disappointing to enter a business where all the employees--and even a supervisor, judging by their different shirts--are frowning and scowling. Personally, if I had been alone, I would have turned around and left right away. In my opinion, if the people working at a place you are going to eat are unfriendly, you are not going to have a good experience overall. read more

I had never been to a Culver's until today, In fact I only recently heard of them. A co-worker of mine told me they have the BEST burgers stating "they are like meth as a burger! Super addictive!" So yeah, she talked me into going for my lunch break today. I went through the drive thru and wanted to try a burger with a pretzel bun they had advertised on their menu board but unfortunately I was told they were no longer making the pretzel burgers so I pivoted to trying their sourdough double melt burger in a combo with iced tea, fries and the boom boom sauce. I must say their burgers are very good. The patties are really thin so I'm glad I got it as a double burger but they are tasty and I'd say the burgers patties are comparable with Freddy's steakburgers which is one of my favorite fast food burger joints. The burger was hot with delicious melted cheese and toasted sourdough. I didn't realize there wouldn't be any veggies on the burger so next time i get it, I'm gonna ask for some tomato and onion but all in all it was great. The fries were decent crinkle cut fries but nothing super special. I could take them or leave them. The boom boom sauce was great .. it's like a slightly spicy fry sauce, it enhanced the fries and actually tasted pretty dang good when I dipped my burger in it too. I left with my belly satisfied! My co-worker said their chicken isn't very good but I'd be interested in giving their grilled chicken sandwich and the onion rings a go sometime and will definitely be back! read more

I ordered online and it was super easy. Did curbside pickup and it was quick and easy. Service was great, quick and friendly. Food was definitely better than your average FF joint. I got the burger with cheese and fries with a smoothie. The burger was fresh and tasty, they actually have a cheddar cheese option and not just your typical American. The fries are crinkle cut and fried nicely. This maybe the only FF joint that offers crinkle cut. Nice differentiation from other places. For my drink, I opted for the smoothie with peach that I didn't really care for it. It has a strong lemon base to it and was not a real fruit smoothie. I do love the options you get to choose as you order that will make your meal more or less depending on what you choose. For example, adding bacon or removing something like tomato for -.3 less,etc. I like I know what I am paying for. Since it was curbside, I don't know how the setting was. It looked fairly big with some nice covered outdoor picnic tables, good for kids and pets. read more

Smelled like pee when I walked in. I've been here many times and it's never smelled this bad.

Forget In-N-Out, Culvers has the BEST burger, in my opinion and their frozen custard is amazing. The staff are always friendly and the only reason I didn't give them a 5 star is because of the Ambience, it's a typical walk up and order type place, which I prefer more of a restaurant style place. The food is very good and I would definitely recommend coming here. read more

We ordered our meals and waited over 15 minutes for it to come to the table. After the 15 minute wait my boyfriend got up to check on it. He brought the order to the table 5 minutes later and said they were just very busy. The food was cold. I just wanted to get out of there from the long wait so we ate half the food and just left. I will definitely never be going back there again. No apologies from the staff, no nothing. I definitely do not recommend it this place. read more

Beware if you come here, you need a two hour lunch break. Super long line they take your money and then you go around the corner and wait and wait and wait not coming back here. Super super slow. read more

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Culver's in Meridian. My wife and I came in for lunch on Sunday just after 1:00 p.m. with a couple of friends and their 4- and 6-year-old kids. The restaurant was busy, but when it was time to order we were greeted by Selah, who welcomed us with a warm smile. It was the kids' first time at Culver's and they weren't quite sure what they wanted. Selah was incredibly patient and kind, asked all the right questions, and made sure the kids got exactly what they wanted. We ordered a couple of dishes of custard for the kids to enjoy after the meal. They had seen a dessert come out topped with M&M's and asked if they could have some on their custard as well. When I went to the counter to pick them up, the store manager, Andrew, helped me. When I asked if I could pay for a small amount of M&M's to add on top, he happily said yes and added them at no charge. I know these may sound like small things, but during the busy Christmas season many places seem to let customer service slide. That was absolutely not the case here. Quite the contrary--your team was outstanding. Culver's is now my #1 go-to for burgers. Thank you to Selah, Andrew, and the entire Meridian team for a great experience. read more

Call me old-fashioned, but I love a good Butter Pecan ice cream! I recently recently tried Culver's Butter Pecan frozen custard. It is EXCELLENT! Smooth, creamy, full of pecans, and delicious! The butter pecan flavor is more pronounced than any other butter, pecan ice cream I have tried, due to the generous amount of toasted butter pecans. Normally, the hand packed frozen custard pints at Culver's are $4.99 each. I picked up two flavors, but the helpful employee at the cash register encouraged me to go and pick up two more for just a couple more dollars. They were having a sale, offering Party Packs of 4 pints for just $3 each. I was told that starting starting yesterday, they were just going to be $2.50 each. I assume that this is a Super Bowl special. Culver's is open until 10 PM tonight, so you have still have time to run out and get 4 pints for $10. Culver's sells a special Party Pack Cooler for $8; it fits 4 pints. Once you have one, you can bring it back and get 4 pints for $2.50 each anytime you want. I declined because it was so cold outside that I didn't think there would be any issue with me getting my frozen custard home without melting. Also, I hadn't tried Culver's frozen custard before, so I didn't know how well I was going to like it. Boy, was that dumb! I have since tried two other flavors, Chocolate and Mint Cookie. Both were outstanding! I will soon try Georgia Peach. There's no doubt in my mind it will be just as good. I recently tried the chili too. It is excellent! Highly Recommended!!! 4/14/21 Culver's I went to Culver's in Meridian today to try their walleye. Normally, they have it through the end of April, but they ran out early. So I tried their North Atlantic Cod Filet sandwich ($5.59). For three dollars extra I got it combo style, which includes a generous portion of french fries and a medium drink. This is the best fast food fish sandwich I have had to date. It's a generous portion of high-quality fish that has been perfectly cooked. The cod was nice and flakey. The batter is light but crispy. Everything about the sandwich including the bun, shredded lettuce and cheese was very fresh.I like that you can get extra tartar sauce on the side for no charge. The crinkle cut french fries were excellent.I like that both the fries and sandwich were made to order, as is all of their food. That alone is pretty much a rarity for fast food restaurants these days. As I was getting ready to leave, one of the employees came up and told me they had made an extra caramel milkshake by mistake. They asked if I would like it. I don't normally eat caramel but because I've heard such great things about their frozen custard, I said I would be happy to. The milkshake was excellent! I like that they took the extra step of lining part of the inside of the cup with caramel. P.S. I later tried the Walleye Dinner. It was very good too! If you're in Meridian and thinking about getting fast food, you should definitely consider giving Culver's a try. read more

The manager, Matt , has excellent customer service every time we go there. When we save up tokens for prizes for the kids, we went yesterday and he kept trying to find a needle to pump air into the ball we wanted, and since he couldn't he went ahead gave us the full pumped up ball in the display cabinet. He had to go in the back, drag out the ladder, to climb up to where the cabinet was at to get the fully pumped up ball we wanted . Thanks Matt. read more

Y'all need to give James a raise. My friends and I go to Culver's pretty often after our church group meets and James is always incredible. He is so patient and kind and very helpful.

And the food is amazing, best chicken strips I've ever had. Love this place so much. read more

Been going to Culver's for years. Always, or in the past, I have enjoyed the "flavor of the day" custard. Tonight went for Turtle Dove. Wife and I ordered two orders of the turtle dove. Was handed vanilla custard with a chocolate dust on top. I parked and walked in to show the manager what I received. She apologized and made two new orders. I looked at them and asked, where is the Carmel, pecans and chocolate? She told me it was mixed in the custard. Well....there was two pecan slivers, a literal drop of Carmel and almost no chocolate pieces. I did not even eat it. I'm not a fan of just vanilla custard. For months this has become the normal when ordering a Custard Flavor of the day. You never get the goodies that is advertised and posted on a photo board. I told my wife that Dairy Queen has become 10 times better and I really do not want to return to Culver's. We eat there also and do enjoy the food. But even that has become less desirable. I only wish the local owner would read stuff like my comments so improvement could be made. When things like this continue you loose one, then two and more customers don't go back. It will be a while before I try Culver's for a final visit to see if I ever go back. I'll attach a picture of what it is supposed to look like. Maybe a year ago, it look like the photo. But..not anymore. Very poor quality. read more

Food was really good. And as always the workers at Culver's are friendly and attentive.

Culvers reminds me of another fast food/ice cream shop I used to frequent, only better. This location is very clean and the staff super friendly. The line was a bit long, but moved quickly. The food is tasty. It's fried fast food, so the bar is set pretty low, but the bites here are yummy without being greasy. The cheese curds are super delicious. The cold treats are very good. My kiddos love the concrete mixers and husband enjoys the shakes. The price point is fantastic as well. Worth a stop in! read more

My husband went in about 30 minutes ago to order a to go and was very unsatisfied with the customer service. The employees were highly unprofessional. We're having inappropriate conversations amongst each other in front of the paying customers, they were also horse playing with each other. Not only did I receive unprofessional customer service. Once we started eating our food. I will say the fries were somewhat fresh, but both of our burgers were not even quite lukewarm. Very upset with the service and the lack of attention that we received. Definitely will not be returning. read more

Could not be any slower.... 30 mins for a scoop of custard isn't worth it. Drive down the road to Freddy's. Custard is better there too.

This place is consistently good! They have lots of food choices, including a few healthy ones. You order at the counter, and they'll bring the food out to you. I also like the different varieties of drinks - Culver's root beer (regular & diet), Powerade, Coke Zero & the regular suspects. I always have great customer service, and the restaurant is clean. read more

Okay, so my wife and I went to Culver's in Meridian Idaho for the first time, to experience and hopefully enjoy their Cod & Walleye meals. They opened at 10am and we arrived shortly thereafter. Being early, there was no line and only one other customer, so no waiting and a choice of seating! I ordered their 3 piece Walleye Dinner and my wife, the 3 piece Cod Dinner, both with coleslaw and onion rings (Before you wonder about Dinner at that hour, consider it's all about leftovers being reheated in a convection oven... bang for your buck and quite tasty :) While we found the meals to be good, we would critique two things! 1. The oil that they fried the fish in was not up to the proper temperature, as the fish was soggy. The oil itself had a fresh taste to it, so congrats on changing it when needed, but they should either turn on the fryer earlier in the morning to bring it up to temp, or run it at the proper temperature for frying. 2. The other thing we would suggest is to both allow the fish to drain a bit longer after removing it from the fryer and to then place it on a piece of Parchment Paper on the serving plate to absorb any residual oil from the fish. They might get away with serving it like that on a bun, where the bread can absorb the excess oil, but not on a plate, where it will swim in it and dissolve all of the crust from the bottom of the fish and render it soggy :( Now... will we go back? Yes, as it was good, but next time, we will get there a wee bit later (let's say at 11am) to offset the oil heating element, while still beating any lunchtime rush, ask them to drain the fish & immediately transfer them to a napkin after it is brought to the table. Oh, and bring along a couple of nice heavy white cotton utility napkins (as a couple of dozen of their paper napkins are not up to the task at hand) Other than that... the fish melted in your mouth and was quite enjoyable! Signed: An 'Older' couple in our 70's, that spent many years in food service ourselves and hope that this review is received with the good intentions it was sent in, to assist them in elevating the quality of their product and ensuring their long-term success (as their service was quite excellent!) read more

Service was extremely slow we had a very small order and it took more than 10 minutes to come out the drive-thru. Once the order was received the smoothies had a strange smell coming from the cups. The smelled like someone had not changed gloves from fried foods to drinks. read more

After seeing this place advertised for so long we finally decided to try it. My mother-in-law saw they had Fish 'n Chips and wanted to see what they were like. After driving 30 mins. from Caldwell, we arrived... only to wait nearly 45 mins. for our food. There are brand new places with longer lines getting you through quicker. The service was slow and tepid at best, nobody seems to be happy to be there, or acted like they were enjoying their job. I got the Limited Edition Northwoods Walleye dinner with fries and onion rings. We also got the cheese curds because we were told they were amazing. Boy were we lied to. The curds were so salty I could hardly gag them down, I can name two places that make them better. The fish had good flavor and was nice and flaky, however it was so saturated in oil the batter was slimy and gross. I could hardly touch it without getting all over my hands, not what I expected from fish and chips. The onion rings were the star of the show, on par with some of the best I've had and the fries, well, they were your normal, run-of-the-mill fast food variety. Overall, this place was a decent place, but not the best go-out-of-my-way to eat there place. Maybe I got the wrong thing but unless I am with a group that is eating here I probably wouldn't return. read more

Ordered a burger with everything on it. Got a plain cheeseburger, brought it back and they handed me the individual burger components (lettuce, pickles, onions, and mayo/mustard) packets so I could build a burger there in the restaurant.

Came thru the drive through tonight. I was the only person there in drive thru and ordered 2 shakes and one fry. Had to wait 15 minutes for my order and both shakes were the wrong shakes. Then had the audacity to make me give them back the shakes they made wrong so they could throw them in the trash. Terrible service. Waste of my time. Can't believe they didn't even offer me any compensation for their own mistake of making my order wrong. Should have just gone to in n out, would have been faster and done right the first time. read more
