I believe that's the old Dairy Queen location, hopefully they have better luck. That Glitz was nice, but very expensive, a regular Christmas store was all that was needed. If anyone needs anything special for Christmas, try Robert's Christmas Wonderland on Gulf to Bay Blvd in Clearwater.

Culvers -- best fast food burgers (in my opinion). Buffalo chicken tenders also very good. Also try their fish specials during Lent. Great custard. I think Culvers will be a hit in The Villages.

Culver's started in Wisconsin, and has spread to quite a few states. Currently Florida has 44 Culver's locations, mostly on the Gulf Coast and Orlando area, with a few on the Atlantic side and the Panhandle area.
I now have another reason to move to The Villages someday . . . LOL

Discovered Culvers when we moved to Minneapolis area. Their butter burger and fries are really good. Also their fried chicken. Generous portions good pricing great service. Prefer a Culver's over a Red Robin.
As to location will it be where Crisper's once stood?

This will be a great addition to the "fast food" restaurant venue in The Villages. Custard is much better than ice cream IMHO. Culver's is going into the building that was a Dairy Queen when we first moved here. I never could figure why Dairy Queen couldn't make it here----management perhaps. Culver's Chili is very good----welcome to delicious!

I'd say it's far better than Dairy Queen! So think the location will be fine. Hope they have more than one location here!

I believe you said you had never been to Culvers. I then provided information that Culvers uses Cod. You continue to keep talking about Walleye. Is it funny?
You two are talking about two different things, Culvers has a delicious cod sandwich and fish fry. They also have a great walleye platter. I am looking forward to both.
Can't find a good Wisconsin fish fry around here. Perhaps Culvers cod fish fry will satisfy my craving. I also crave walleye and am looking forward to it. And (of course) the frozen custard.

Culver's had a North Atlantic Cod special, BUT, the main fish on their menu IS Walleye, a Great Lakes fish known for it's sweet taste. Along with Lake Perch and Pickerel, they make the Trio of great tasting lake fish.

I am pleased for your good health. Does bad booze slam your arteries shut? Junk food is all relative. Bad for you food can be purchased at expensive restaurants. Culver's sandwiches are tasty and the place is well run and clean. I doubt that many are going to make a steady diet of it. Most of us are aware of healthy eating and a well balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables, low fat and good proteins.

Not sure that I've done this correctly but this shoiuld take you to Culver's menu. My favorite is the single cheeseburger: thin, quick-fried and I like all of the shown condiments. The bun is buttered and fried. I love the "original" with cheese.
The frozen yogurt is the best I've ever had.

On a budget? You can get their Snack Pak (hamburger, fries and a drink) but don't know price. You can also order the same but in a kid's meal and on the bag is a tag you pull off for a free frozen custard. I always ask for my ffries to be extra crispy! Burgers are fresh...never frozen AND if need be you can ask for a gluten free bun. ALL much tastier than McD's...but that's my opinion.

Culver's Chili is very good----welcome to delicious!
Did you ever notice the people who worked at Dairy Queen? Their
uniforms were filthy.....not just ice cream and chocolate, it was ice cream, chocolate, strawberry sauce, butterscotch sauce and everything else from the month. If the owner paid as little attention to his business as he did to the employees, it's no wonder it went out of business.

On a budget? You can get their Snack Pak (hamburger, fries and a drink) but don't know price. You can also order the same but in a kid's meal and on the bag is a tag you pull off for a free frozen custard. I always ask for my ffries to be extra crispy! Burgers are fresh...never frozen AND if need be you can ask for a gluten free bun. ALL much tastier than McD's...but that's my opinion.
Everything is better than McD's. They are the bottom of the barrel in my opinion.

Shirley. YOU JEST!
Just had the quarter pounder with cheese last night.
Our kids worked at our local McDonalds, and would complain about being on closing shift where the help had to clean everything, even washing the under-table top.
I will never forget the fun of Friday nights (one car family then) when we went grocery shopping and had dinner at McDonalds with the kids.
I am a simple girl.

Culver's might accomplish one thing, you won't have to wait as long at Steak & Shake for a table. I use to go there on Saturdays after my softball game and if you weren't there by noon, there was always a long wait. They have that room that you enter before getting into the restaurant itself. You would think they could of air conditioned that area and made it an actual waiting room. Instead they have an area that is about 10'x10' for 15 or 20 people to stand and at the same time other customers are trying to pay their bill and exit.
We have recently gone to Steak & Shake a couple of times because I really like their chili, especially chili supreme. It's no different on a weekday, big lines waiting to for a table and nowhere to go. The place only gets by because of the wait staff is good at their jobs.
For those of us from Maryland and especially those who are familiar with Thrasher's French Fries on the Boardwalk in Ocean City will find the fries at Five Guys is the closest they can get, they even have the vinegar. No ketchup please. My cousin use to operate a sub shop across the street from Thrashers and he had to take all the ketchup off the tables because Thrashers will only give you vinegar. Any true Marylander who knows how to eat those fresh cut fries will only want vinegar anyway.

No I do not jest. I think the food is awful but if you like it by all means enjoy.

I have eaten at three different Culvers, and their burgers were always the worst of all fast-food burgers.
