For fast food, Culver's is better than average. All the food is made to order and the quality is good. And of corse, you must have the frozen custard. A small is probably sufficient, as custard much is richer than ice cream or frozen yogurt! read more

5 star fast food! Wow! Hubby and I were in town for the Fiesta Bowl and needed to grab a little lunch before heading to the game. I checked yelp for close burger places and thought this one sounded good. Oh yes. It was. Not only were are burgers juicy and tasty, the cheese curds and the mashed potatoes and gravy (oh how I loved the gravy!) were also really good! And the service? Exceptional! I know I'm jaded because I live in the land of mediocre service, but this must have been the best, kindest service I've received in who knows how long. Even if the food was just ok, (and if I lived in AZ) I would come back just to say hi. These girls deserve a raise! read more

Love the ice cream here. The food tastes okay, I just wish it wasn't so greasy! The parking lot can get packed. They kept the tables clean amd bathrooms clean too and that's always a plus. The staff is friendly and they'll offer suggestions if you're unsure of what to get. I'll probably be back, mainly for the ice cream :-) read more

See all

The staff has always been super nice and polite. Food is great and frozen treats are even better.

By far the worst. Ordered ice cream just for it to be melted while I waited in the line. Don't recommend going to this one.

My son told me about Culver's a few weeks ago. Well . . . I tried it and now I love Culver's burgers and fries. No, it's not In-N-Out, but pretty darn close. I happen to like burgers that are a bit greasy and crispy. And best part is they let you add "what you want". Lettuce, tomato, mayo. Love it! Fries were hot and crispy. This place is very clean and that is one of the things that keeps me coming back. Looking forward to trying their custard (not now . . . I've got a standing appointment with a treadmill this week). Culver's, I'm glad you're in my neighborhood. read more

My first experience with Culver's was visiting the in-laws in Wisconsin. It was love ever since! Usually drove to the one in Mesa, but now I have one close to home! Bacon double cheeseburger with a side of fried cheese curds is AWESOME! The food is good here. The people are even "midwestern" nice and very helpful when you need to navigate the sometimes complex menu. Place is always clean and the icing on the cake is that they have sports on usually on one of the handful of large HD tvs. The frozen Custard is a family favorite! 5 Stars for the Custard! read more

4 Stars for the food and the company caring about quality more than other places. -1 Star for them allowing a homeless guy to pester me and most likely others at a place where I am forced to park and wait for my food and I can't leave if I want my money's worth. They are also lucky I don't -1 more Star for the girl working there at the moment I am writing this review. She was very short and rude and annoying. She was literally mad at me from the minute I drove up to the speaker because I wanted to take a moment to look at the menu which I am still not familiar with (and ask my wife on the phone what we should get). Then she was even more mad at me for asking for honey mustard at the window. I felt very happy to hand over $20 (which I never spend on restaurants anywhere) to receive this treatment from a place that is trying to be more dignified fast food. I expect this treatment at a lame joint, but this is supposed to be Culver's. Also, I don't care for the chocolate custard/ice cream whatever they call it. It tastes like Wendy's frosty. That's lame. Other than that it is a place with decent burgers and the toppings/mix-ins cover up the cheap ice cream well enough to get it more than once. ***UPDATE*** -3 Stars for food poisoning to top off the experience. I regret going, and wish I had ordered pizza (which is saying something). read more

Turtle Sunday on a Sunday. Fast service and the young lady in the drive thru was very polite and quick at her job.

After waiting about a good 10 minutes at the drive through speaker , starting to wonder if they had shut down early (it was 10:15pm) a girl speaks and says "what can I get for you" in the rudest tone like I was burdening her for trying to order food. My friend made a smart remark "jeez about time." I turned to him and said, stop being rude she's going to spit in our food. Then an evil laugh comes over the speaker and then says "oh bet I would, now what can I get for you" Me and my friend both looked at each other in shock of what we heard and decided to take our business elsewhere. I've worked in customer service for over 5 years and am so disgusted and shocked at the way I was treated here. Will never be back again. So horrible I cringe to give this place even 1 star. read more

This Culver's probably doesn't even need its own exterior lighting thanks to all of the nearby car dealerships that have Camelback Road lit up brighter than Las Vegas! This was my first time to this particular Culver's, but I have been a fan of Culver's since moving to Arizona. Usually, I'll get a regular cheeseburger or a patty melt, but this time I decided to try a Pretzel Haus Pub Burger. Unfortunately, I wasn't really impressed. I didn't like the tangy sauce they used on it. It's my fault since I read the sign (which indicated it had tangy sauce), but I didn't know just how tangy it would be. Of course, this is no reflection on this particular establishment. They completed my order just as I had requested (although the teenage boy who brought our food to our table seemed to have a chip on his shoulder as if he didn't want to be there). Overall, the place was clean, but had seedy looking characters hanging about. For instance, a few of them were just sitting at tables not eating or drinking anything. They appeared to be homeless and seemed to be using the place as a refuge. (I probably would too if I was homeless and trying to avoid the bright lights outside.) I began to recite my "I don't have any leftover change" speech in my head just to be prepared, but fortunately none of them asked. read more

Culver's - Pretzel haus pub burger: not my favorite... - Fast Food Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I don't usually frequent fast food establishments, but sometimes a quick burger is just what I need and Culver's is the place I go! There are a lot of trendy, high priced burger places in town but for a good quality, quick burger, you can't beat Culver's! The place is exceptionally clean and the staff is always friendly with a gracious hello when you enter the door. I love the buttered bun and the crinkle fries and of course the custard is to die for! I used to be a big Wendy's fan for a burger on the run, but since I have discovered Culver's I am a definite convert! Oh, and if you keep your receipt and go on line to write a review within 48 hours you get a nice treat in return....usually a free single serve custard on your next visit. Culver's won't win any food awards but it certainly hits the spot for a good, reasonably priced burger when you need one! read more

I like their food but the custard is what makes me come back every time. It's so yummy and the flavor of the day is always interesting. Take advantage of their weekly specials. read more

Culver's is one of my absolute favorite places to eat. This Culver's especially is always clean and has a friendly staff. The daily soups, chicken tenders and frozen custard are my favorite. read more

Supposedly this is some big burger joint in the Midwest. I got the Buffalo tenders and cheese curds. The cheese curds were so freaking addicting! They were like mini mozzarella sticks. The tenders were super meaty and crispy. I was full after eating two and the order came with four. The cashier was very friendly. They have an expansive menu of burgers, sandwiches, fish, and more. Wish there was one in cali! read more

This was my first trip to Culver's and it came highly recommended. At my friends suggestion, I tried the butter burger deluxe, fried cheese curd and the.....I forgot what it was called, but the frozen custard - basically the equivalent of a DQ Blizzard. The burger patties were paper thin (thus the reason I ordered the double), the lettuce was crisp, tomatoes fresh, bun soft and buttery. I thoroughly enjoyed my burger. Very flavorful! I had never had fried cheese curd and had no idea what to expect. The closest thing I can think to compare these to would be mozzarella sticks. They are about the size of a grape, and full of salty cheesy goodness. The custard was delicious! I had the vanilla with butterscotch and oreos (I ordered butterscotch and brownie pieces, but there was a mixup, but I had no complaints). I really loved everything I had. The menu is big and I can't wait to go next time so I can try something new. The thing I didn't like was the bible verses all over the walls. Seriously?? It's not that I am anti-religion or anything. I am Catholic, went to Brophy and go to church twice a year. I don't need it thrown in my face while trying to eat with my friends. take a tip from In and Out. Put them on the under side of your cups. Work on your subtlety Culver's. read more

When I step into a fast food restaurant, I prefer not to be greeted with bible quotes adorning the walls and Fox News blaring on multiple televisions. I feel like 75% of every dollar I spend at Culver's goes directly to the RNC. With that said, the ButterBurger is pretty damn good. read more

The absolute best fish sandwich on the planet. Could be larger portions but over all the best. Place is clean

When this place first opened it was great . My son worked here and the employees were taught to be very courteous and friendly. I'm not sure what happened to that , but it's definitely not like that now. You are not greeted with a smile , in fact it's the opposite . We also have recently come twice about 15 minutes before close and both times "the grill wasn't working" hmmm kind of coincidental. The burgers are still great, so I will still give 3 stars , but because of the service , I may not come back. read more

Had the Culver's Deluxe and it was dry! And the fries were from the freezer. Can't believe how different each location is. Next tome, SMASH BURGER! read more

If they had a Culver's on every street corner, the cardiologists would all have twice as much money. I went there for my first time today for lunch, and I was hoping for a good, non-processed burger. I got my wish; a soft bun, red onions, lettuce, fresh tomatoes... all the fixings were great. The cheese was very good, and the beef patties were also good. (I got the deluxe). Since I never had fried cheese curds, I got those as my side item. It was very reasonably priced; $8 or so for the combo with a root beer. Service was fast; food was fresh and hot. But here's the kicker.... I looked up the nutrional information after lunch, when I felt like I couldn't get out of my office chair. This combo had 84g of fat and 3000mg of sodium. Even if you don't watch what you eat, these numbers should scare the hell out of you. To put it into perspective, my diet calls for 1500mg sodium DAILY. I could've gone to In-N-Out, gotten an animal style double-double with fries and saved 15 grams of fat and saved 1300mg sodium. I could've ordered 2 quarter pounders with cheese and 2 large fries and still eaten fewer grams of fat and sodium. Now do you see exactly how bad these burgers are for you?!? Imagine if I had gotten the bacon cheeseburger with a custard for dessert. That'd be another 30 grams of fat. We're talking triple digits here. Scary stuff. Now, I like to splurge on occasion for great food. Unfortunately, for that caloric catastrophe, it simply wasn't worth it. It's a good burger, definitely better than the typical fast food, but come on. These numbers are beyond reasonable. To be fair, the fried cheese curds constituted 38g of fat alone. Now that I've had them for the first time in my life, I'll say I enjoyed them. They're almost as good as fried mozzarella, but I still prefer the Italian version over the Wisconsin one. So if you want to splurge, enjoy the custard. I've had it once before here, and it's excellent; especially the vanilla. But if you want to blow your diet, even though the food is decent here, do it somewhere else. read more

i like crispy meat patties and butter atop around surrounding the burger. onions of the fried ring type i also like. i don't like that did not have the fried cheese curds, so i like that i'll have to swing on by this place again to pop those curds. read more

Hi , I was curious about Culver's so I tried it. Over done burger, American cheese on it was cold. Very disappointed and will not waste my money again. Good luck! read more

So I'd heard of Culver's, but never eaten there until this one opened up. Wow oh wow, what a great place! I've now been there 3 or 4 times and really dig their burgers!!! The Onion Rings were totally awesome too! I even went for the Vanilla frozen custard (actually, I ate some of my daughter's). I usually get the bacon cheese butter burger and what a fresh, well put together burger. Dopety dope, guess who'll be back pretty soon? This guy! read more

Yuck!! totally not going back. Mcdonalds way bette than this. and I'm shocked someone compared this to In N Out...no way! I wish it were in n out read more

I rarely eat red meat. But then I found Culver's butter burgers. The best I have ever eaten. The concrete mixers are the best as well. Can't remember the last time I went to Dairy Queen. The service is A+ as well. I'm due for another trip to Culver's. read more

A step above most fast food chains. Sadly, I have to avoid dairy these days. Cheese decided it doesn't love me anymore. Sad Panda. I am a sucker for fried cheese curds - and Culver's - being Wisconsin born and bred, uses real cheese from real cows. None of that processed "cheese food product" crap. I'd love to be able to review the curds, and the cheeseburgers and the frozen custard - but for love of my good health, I just can't. I opt for the burger. Sometimes the double. The bun (yes - I know it has butter - but that doesn't seem to effect me...) is way better than fast food places, but not as good as some of the great buns (Fez, Grind, etc.) The burgers taste like they are made from real cows - not all the fillers from some fast food chains. Not a big fan of just how overtly Christian the place is - but that's what drive thrus are for - and I am there to eat, not get saved. I'm just as likely to head over to Smashburger - but one of the coworkers loves Culver's, and is willing to go pick the food up for us. So, Culver's it is. No complaints here. read more

Don't get me wrong, I love Culver's in general. In fact, my sister works at a different location, and said that this one really needs to step it up, This location was a nightmare. We went through the drive thru and ordered some food, not a very big order. However, they were behind by 4 cars, and we had to wait. That would've been fine, but the employees were certainly not at all concerned with speeding up the process. They were walking slowly and acting like they didn't have a care in the world. They probably think, "I don't get paid enough to care." 2 cars appeared to have problems with their orders, and had to go inside to exchange it. Eventually, we got our food. Opening up the bag was a huge dissapointment. One of us had a gluten allergy, and requested accommodations. However, they had put the food items, which aren't in airtight containers, together in the same bag with ones containing gluten, and my burger was mssing ingredients. Plus, the patties were red on one side, and gray and crumbled on the other. We couldn't have been bothered to return it and wait for new food, since we were in a hurry, so we just got a refund and left. Stay away from this location, however, most of the other ones are amazing. read more

Spent almost $5 on a single butter burger that had a patty so small the bun actually has almost twice as many calories. Thank you Culver's for helping renew my commitment to home cooked food. read more

Went threw the drive threw! The girls did mess up my order, I did ask before hand if everything was there! They was busy and said yes. So I ran back inside, they were very apologetic and even gave me a free pint of ice cream!!! :) good customer service read more

Always fresh hamburgers and piping-hot crinkle-cut fries. The frozen custard is great. Very friendly service and clean. They have great coupons. read more

years ago, we couldn't find a frozen custard shop in phoenix without taking a tremendous, all-day affair journey to the far east....valley. now they seem to be all over the place. culvers is cute...reminds me of dairy queen back when ice cream was cool to eat. i did have a little trouble trying to figure out how to order. there's all kinds of funky flavors and add-on's that a slow southerner like me has to process before ordering. luckily the counter girl explained how it worked and we were set. the wife had the mint chocolate chip, and although i've never been a fan of that flavor, i actually liked the custard version. i picked the vanilla with p-butter and banana and it was freaking delicious! very rich and creamy, and even a small was too much for me...you know, trying to watch my awesome figure. we paid about 7 bucks for 2 smalls. after you order, you have a seat and they bring it to you. apparently you can get burgers there as well (DQ all over again). summer is always a great time for a cool treat and since it's nearly summer all year long in phoenix, it's always cool treat time. thanks to culvers for keeping us satisfied. read more

I love Culver's, especially there friendly workers and managers. One worker Taylor was super sweet and helpful. Whatever questions I had she answered perfectly. I highly recommend Culvers to everyone I know. read more

My first experience with Culver's was absolutely fantastic. The food was very tasty and the atmosphere was friendly. The girl (sad to say I forgot her name) demonstrated one of the best customer service experiences I had every had. I wished I was fortunate to have hired her. Culver's keep up the great work and give the Culver's Crew a raise for a job well done. read more

Yummy is all I can say. My partner is from Milwaukee, Wisconsin so she was in heaven when we were on vacation in Phx and we found a culver's. She always prefers Leon's, but this is a close second. The store is clean, everyone is friendly and the service is good. They will give you a sample of any flavor to try before buying. My only complaint is they dont have coke products, just pepsi. Ick. read more

Very good burgers and custard is Devine!! The meat wasn't greasy and the drive through went quick!! My new favorite place for burgers

Love coming here for some custard! Their mixers and sundaes are great. Whenever they offer Mint, I'm especially there. They have good chicken strips and fries but the food is a bit more pricey vs other fast food places. read more

Thought we would grab some dessert on the way back to the hotel from sushi. No custard chains that i know of in Cali so why not give it a shot. Could have definitely done without! Nothing special, super sweet and consistency was more like melted ice cream. Reminds me of a Dairy Queen or Fosters Freeze with the combination of a hot food menu. You can tell the workers were definitely not excited to be their on a Saturday night. read more

Yup I think I am going to say it. This burger place is as or just might be better than In and Out. I just love the buttery bread they use and the meat is perfectly seasoned. The ice cream, amazingly creamy. I am not much for burgers. I always prefer anything but burgers however every once in a while I crave them. I will be coming back to this place again. Highly recommend. read more

This is my first time to Culver's and boy, I enjoyed the burger. I took the Culver's Bacon Deluxe with fries and a strawberry shake. The bun was toasted to perfection and the meat was cooked exactly to my taste. The fries and shake were excellent too. Overall, it is a wonderful place to get a quick meal. All thanks to my gf for taking me here. I will keep visiting this place. read more
