Culver's

[Topspinmo]

Culver's off 466 getting close. Was in Orlando yesterday and stop by Culver's in winter garden off highway 50. Never been to Culver's that was "NOT" clean, neat, good service, and good food. Hope this one in villages can live up to Culver's standard?

I THINK I understand you to say you had never been to Culvers. The ones up North have always been clean and well run with really good food. Milkshakes are so yummy..

I am really looking forward to the one that is opening near us on 466.

[justjim]

We have been to several Culver’s and never found one that was not clean, good service and good food. According to “Franchises Business Review” Culver’s is rated Number 1. I’m hoping for one in south TV someday .....

[cologal]

One of my go to places! Food is good but the custard is outstanding!!!!

I am sad to see them opening here in The Villages...won't do my waistline any good!

I been to about 5 different one's in different states. two in Florida, and the Quality has been the same. Outstanding. I expect no difference from the one on 466! Actually I think the will be so busy be hard to find seat!

I think OP left a word or two out. I think he meant he had not been to one that wasn't neat, clean, good service, etc.

Our granddaughter worked at a Culver’s in Indiana. High standards required.

If the Culvers in The Villages opens before Lent is over, and you are not eating meat on Fridays during Lent, try Culvers Cod dinner or Walleye dinner! Of course you can eat these dinners after Lent is over too! Delicious. :mmmm:

[Topspinmo]

Culvers is about to open, I seen somewhere the 16th April. Probably be too busy first couple days to get in the door?

[joec3]

April 16 is grand opening acording to thier sign

Do they do breakfast? We have never been to one.

No to breakfast....hours might be 11:00 a.m. til close (whatever that store deems it). A word that comes to mind is "Anticipation" (song also sung by Carlie Simon).

Thanks, I look forward to trying it.

We have a Culver’s in Illinois and a McDonald’s close by. No breakfast at Culver’s and often wondered why not? McDonalds does very well (profit wise) with breakfast - - coffee excellent. The building Culver’s remolded was a DQ at one time but never seemed to do a good business for some reason. It’s an excellent location and Culver’s should do well there.

[Chatbrat]

IMHO--a glorified DQ--nothing to get all hot & bothered about--come on ,how about a real restaurant--sorry about all you guys from the mid-west that would like to feel touchy & feely about you're old neighborhood coming to TV-- I wouldn't get this enthralled if a corp. Nathan's open up in TV either= none of their corp. extensions could come close to the original in Coney Island

Walleye? That would be a find for those of use raised around the Great Lakes. They don't mention it on their website though. Is it only available during Lent or only in locations closer to the Great Lakes?

I took a great-niece and great-nephew to a Culver's once for ice cream and wasn't overly impressed for food choices as everything looked fried or deep-fried, something my waistline can't support any more. However, I'd break my own rules for some Walleye!

Culver's Menu | Butter Burger, Frozen Custard, Curds & More (https://www.culvers.com/menu-and-nutrition)

I was waiting for husband and daughter to finish shopping at Bealls recently, sitting in the chairs by the entrance. A gentlemen sat down next to me and started a conversation. He said he was from New York. He told me that New York City had the best restaurants, the best hospitals, the best art and culture. I told him that I enjoyed visiting NYC and had been there many times. I asked him if he had ever been to Cincinnati. He said "No. Why would I do that?".

If NYC is so good? why are there gobs of NY'er down here? Tax evasion???

[JSR22]

Weather is the main reason and the lower cost of living

[graciegirl]

Now...before I get the...it isn't good for you stuff.

I would imagine that most will enjoy Culvers occasionally, and not make a steady diet of their delicious ice cream and other yummy stuff served in a clean restaurant in a chain that really deserves the praise it gets.

I might go seven days in a row and then get control of myself....but hey.

[JSR22]

EVERYONE loves their home town. Anyone with a heart should know that.

The weather brought many here to live among those who grew up here and love it as their home place.

We all believe that our home town and our grandchildren and our college team is the best. But some of us had mothers who taught us not to brag.

It isn't nice.

I don't think I was bragging. We moved here so my husband could play golf year round and I could spend a lot of time outside.

Thanks for the links Gracie, I watched all 3 and everything looks delicious. Never had Wallyeye- not a big fish eater but do enjoy Cod, haddock and grouper. This fish I will try. I think they will be a nice touch to the Villages.

10 pounds or 100. One thing for sure weight in harder to loose and easy to gain:icon_hungry:

Do they do breakfast? We have never been to one.

I have been to Culvers in Dubuque, IA and in suburban Chicago, and I have not ever seen breakfast offered.

[Villagevip]

Looking great to reside in Glenbrook.. Need a convenient go to, for fast takeout, so tired of Taco Bell,... Looking forward to the Culver's fish offerings.... Wendys fish sandwich, throwaway garbage,.. sad, that I can tell you, believe me......

[graciegirl]

Went to Culvers this last week when we were home in Ohio and it wasn't as good as I remembered. The fish was really greasy.

That's so sad to hear! Hopefully it was a one time event!
I drove past the one here today. Two cars were parked each pointed a different direction, in the drive-thru. Saw quite a few cars parked in their lot---wondered if they were training OR were having a soft-opening. Would love to go to a s.o.!!! Won't be going the 1st few days, for sure, as I'm sure it will be "slammed"!

Toxic bell and burger queen might as well fold now. I never been to a bad toxic bell as the one in southern trace. Burger King for me mostly miss, occasionally during the 15 rush hour around noon you can get fries warm and not microwaved vulgar. No I didn't misspell it!:oops:

[Chatbrat]

Drive one more mile west & go to Wawa

[Mleeja]

Tried Culver’s today. Still very crowded, but they had 4 or 5 people taking orders so the wait time to order was minimal. I would guess it was another 5 or 10 minutes to get our food. Today was a very pleasant day to sit in the outside dining area.

I had a bacon double butter burger, fries and a chocolate shake. My wife had a single butter cheeseburger, and 2 scoops of chocolate custard. All was very good. There are quite of few menu items I would like to try, so we will be back.

One thing I would like to see. The shakes are very thick. They need a larger diameter straw. We have them at home. I think I will just bring my own straw next time.

No more straws! They are all ending up in the Oceans. Seattle has banned them.

Bring a spoon! We all gotta do our parts...

[jebartle]

We see that Culvers has adopted the SteaknShake method, of beating 4 oz. Of meat paper-thin. Parking lot was crazy, line long right now, burger good, fries good, cost more than S & S, eat off paper, cups paper. Hope all my Cheese head friends aren't mad but that's a NC opinion.

I wasn't going to say anything -- you know "if you don't have something nice to say ... etc". But since you made the comparison, after lunch today at Culver's, DH asked me if I found anything that differentiates Culvers from Steak n Shake and I had no answer.

[alwann]

Went there today, at 3:00 p.m. I think they made enough today to pay first years rent. Never seen such a crowd. All ages. Drive-thru lane was backed up to the street. I'll go again when the blush is off the rose, because they have the best frozen custard ever.

[Chatbrat]

Have never set foot in a S&S , don't think we'll be going to a Culver's either--if I was in my teens and 20's and had the metabolism I used to have --would give it a shot--but its not for a health conscience 75 year old

Seattle has banned plastic straws and plastic utensils effective July 1st of this year .However biodegradable straws [ paper ] and biodegradable utensils [ wooden ] are allowed .

Locals are also being encouraged to hollow out a stick and carry it with them in lieu of straws and to eat with their hands instead of using the biodegradable utensils .

The city council is also considering passing an ordinance to
ban the brushing and flossing of teeth as it uses too much water and the used flossing material is an unnecessary addition to the city's solid waste management efforts .

Meanwhile , not to be undone , the California State Legislature encouraged by Gov. Brown is expected to enact a statewide ban on the use of paper products , utensils and cups in all fast food restaurants across the Golden State . Patrons will be encouraged to fold one hand to receive a legal drink portion * in one hand while receiving their food in another .

* Under the new law any drink from a fast food establishment may not exceed 4 ounces as this has been determined by state engineers to fit into the cupped hand of the average adult citizen . Children may use both hands to receive a drink up to the age of 12 .

No worries, when 3 Culver’s opened near our home up north, the parking lot looked just as it does now. But year later it’s the same as any other fast food line. All the other fast foods are still doing good business. When Culver’s sends out its coupons buy one get one, the sales soar back to grand opening days. Then slows down to a normal pace.

We were there this afternoon around 3...business was brisk but not slammed like at noon! I think they'll do just fine, even after the new-ness is off. Met the owner and he's---he's young and enthusiastic.

From the comments---it's like any restaurant---folks will either love/like it or hate it. Even hear stuff in the midwest where this one originated. Still, I think they're a better choice than McD's or the other similar ones. Once they get their salads back---you can have more healthy choices too or have the grilled chicken and a healthy side! Noone is forced to eat the deep-fried items!!

[Buffalo Jim]

How about the BIG GULP:wine::beer3:

4 ounces that's all you will legally be able to purchase under the proposed state-wide ordinance . No idea how a patron will be expected to accept hot coffee in their bare hand .

If it passes in the Golden State and seems to be accepted then transplanted Californians who have improved the lives of many in Colorado , Washington and Oregon and in parts of Texas and most recently Idaho are prepared to lobby hard for similar legislation .

That sounds accurate. Too expensive to put a golf cart bridge over 301.

The server at Culver's said he was privileged to serve me and the guy who took my order said something I did not quite catch. Now that is attention. Culver's has a different drive through than I am used to. Lots of charming smiling teenagers it looked like.

If NYC is so good? why are there gobs of NY'er down here? Tax evasion???

The Villages is truly wonderful in many ways - which is why my wife and I bought here (we are from NJ). However, New York is one of the most incredible places in the world - art, music, museums, restaurants, and so much more. All of this is just in the city of New York! Yes, the cost of living - including taxes - is very high. There are many negatives as well (crowds, dirt, noise, crime). But NYC is a very special place as described in this piece talking about tourists from other countries coming to visit the U.S.

"Of the top 10 states that foreign travelers visited the most in 2013, New York accounts for 30.5% of all those visitors. Even though the state doesn’t have the advantage of warm weather all year around, it does provide a cultural experience, history and entertainment that is unmatched by any other place in America. If you’re a big fan of theatrical productions, you can see the world’s best shows on Broadway. If you want to see historic monuments, the Statue of Liberty is one of the most famous of all time.

Big time sports fan? How about the mecca of basketball; Madison Square Garden. Big fan of music? The most famous bands in the world have played in the same arena before. Heck, it’s dubbed as the world’s most famous arena. Even aside from New York City, if you somehow get bored from being in the city that doesn’t sleep, eating at some of the world’s finest restaurants and hanging out at Times Square, you could always visit one of the neighboring states adjacent to New York, one of the most densely populated areas in the world. With so many reasons to visit New York it’s no wonder people come in droves from all over the world and will continue to do so again and again."

But since this is about restaurants, here is a list of the top 50 in the U.S. Just over half of them are in New York. Best restaurants in America - Business Insider (http://www.businessinsider.com/best-restaurants-in-america-2016-4#4-per-se-47)

[fw102807]

The Villages is truly wonderful in many ways - which is why my wife and I bought here (we are from NJ). However, New York is one of the most incredible places in the world - art, music, museums, restaurants, and so much more. All of this is just in the city of New York! Yes, the cost of living - including taxes - is very high. There are many negatives as well (crowds, dirt, noise, crime). But NYC is a very special place as described in this piece talking about tourists from other countries coming to visit the U.S.

"Of the top 10 states that foreign travelers visited the most in 2013, New York accounts for 30.5% of all those visitors. Even though the state doesn’t have the advantage of warm weather all year around, it does provide a cultural experience, history and entertainment that is unmatched by any other place in America. If you’re a big fan of theatrical productions, you can see the world’s best shows on Broadway. If you want to see historic monuments, the Statue of Liberty is one of the most famous of all time.

Big time sports fan? How about the mecca of basketball; Madison Square Garden. Big fan of music? The most famous bands in the world have played in the same arena before. Heck, it’s dubbed as the world’s most famous arena. Even aside from New York City, if you somehow get bored from being in the city that doesn’t sleep, eating at some of the world’s finest restaurants and hanging out at Times Square, you could always visit one of the neighboring states adjacent to New York, one of the most densely populated areas in the world.

I told him that I enjoyed visiting NYC and had been there many times. I asked him if he had ever been to Cincinnati. He said "No. Why would I do that?".

If NYC is so good? why are there gobs of NY'er down here? Tax evasion???

I've wondered why when all we hear on social media sites (this thread not-with-standing) on how we don't have any "good" restaurants here etc. etc. etc. Gracie's interaction, I guess says it all I guess. Nothing is "good" here apparently...or anywhere else!! Years ago we were on a cruise and I was sitting by myself off to one side and a group that appeared to be from the N.E. made a comment about ALL the midwesterners that were on the boat and ALL they could talk about was the weather. LOL Guess we don't appear to have any "fetching up"!

I am a little too sensitive for NOTHING.

Did have the guy who brought out the Culver's food tell me that it was a "privilege" to serve me. That was nice. I had hoped to get the really cute blonde girl to bring the food even if she was probably about 18, if that. An old guy like me can look after all, still.

The guy who also took my order said something to me extra but I did not quite catch it. Facebook has been VERY good to me of late.

I rarely get fast food though so not sure when I will go back to Culver's.

I would feel uncomfortable having someone say to me that it’s a privilege for him or her to hand me a burger. It’s a burger, not the congressional Medal of Honor. That only cheapens the meaning of the word privilege and how it should be used, typical corporate BS.

I rarely venture into religious discussion (and this stupid laptop I'm having to use because mine broke won't let me bold your first statement) but I just want to point out that this is how Jesus taught people to pray--anonymously, in a room, by yourself. Mathew 6:5-8. (I remember it, but I had to look up chapter/verse.)

I've often wondered why we help others, or pray, give, not steal... having to do with your second statement. I'm hoping that there is a connection between the two somehow. Maybe most of us are born decent and good. There's debate about that too.

I wish I had something profound to say about it all. I hope the good prevails in the majority of us.

You know, I do a lot of it in anonymity, but recently there have been some privileged/entitled on here that have decided to bash Police Officers (the ones I try to do the most for), so my belief for my posting about paying for the meal for the 3 EMT's/Paramedics is that maybe, just maybe, someone will make a kind gesture, if they are financially able, and occasionally buy a meal for these public servants.

Everyone we've done this for has always been extremely appreciative.

Went to Culver’s last night. The place was crowded, but they seemed to be doing a good job of getting the food out in acceptable time frames. Our order was a little wrong as we specified no cheese and it came with. Frozen custard was great. Not a big fan of crinkle fries, but they were OK.

We’ll be back to try the fish and other offerings later, when the newness wears off.

I stopped for lunch today at the Culvers in Winnebago, IL (near Rockford) on the way to my Dad's house. I had the chili supreme - first time trying that. It was pretty good.

I'm a big fan of shrimp of any kind, so last week I had the 6 piece shrimp dinner with cole slaw and fries, I believe it was $8.89. They also have a 10 piece but I was barely able to eat what I had. I loved the meal, fries were very good with ketchup, shrimp and the cocktail sauce was good and the cole slaw was excellent. My wife had the chicken breast sandwich and liked it as much or better than Chick Filet.

We went back again this week and I had the same meal, and it was still great. I'm going to have to try something else because the shrimp dinner never leaves room for a custard dessert. My wife had a 2 piece chicken tenders with a side salad and she liked what she had. The tenders are very big and she wasn't sure if she could eat 4, but a basket allows you to order 2 and for 30 cents more she got a side salad instead of fries.

It was like “hey, have some burger with your salt” and I am obviously NOT fussy when it comes to food. The “custard “ was ok but when they call it a “mix in” they should actually MIX IT IN and not just sprinkle the Oreos on top.

Was all excited when I first heard about Culver’s. A new junkyfood place to eat. Boy was it ever a letdown. Yuch.

Having enjoyed the custard, I took the plunge and had a burger. Apparently, the cook was unaware that the flavor of meat is in the juices as all the taste had been pressed out of my patty. The cold bottom bun was in interesting touch.

First 4 or 5 times I went, there was a line at each register. Last week I went in and there was about 10 people standing in a sort of line back by the wall, I asked the first person if they were waiting on their order. Then I remembered, it's not like McDonalds, here they give you a number and you can sit down. The guy said, no were waiting to order. I said, way back here? what about that second register or when they open the third register, what you gonna do? He said, this is the way it was when I came in, next time you can do it the way you want to do it.

Then a new guy walked in from the other side and got in line for the second register. I said, there goes your plan. Then a guy comes in the door behind me and said, is anybody in line at that register, I said, no they're all waiting back here, then he shook his head and said, why don't all line up at the registers. Then the guy in front of me said again, you can do it your way next you come, but this is the way it was when we came in. :shocked:

BTW, the 6 piece shrimp dinner is excellent, I've had it 5 of my 6 visits. Butterfly shrimp, great cole slaw, very good fries, and good cocktail sauce, and I think it's about $8.95.

Maybe it was Custard's last stand.

Went to Culver's today for the first time. The kid taking our order was not paying attention to what we were saying. Ordered 2 drinks gave us one cup. Requested ketchup on the burgers...simple right? The two burgers had no ketchup on them, were cold to the touch so much so the cheese did not melt. Much better hamburgers at Burger King! I mentioned the no ketchup to the kid on the way out and he just shrugged his shoulders? 2 other customers were complaining about their orders as well. We won't be back.....

I hope I never find or see Culvers at the Villages. I lived near Culvers in Clermont and worked near the one in Winter Garden. It is so good, it's addicting. I have to look the other way when i see Culvers cause I can eat a pint going and coming. It is just too good. So I hope I don't ever find a Culvers now that I live in the Villages.

Sorry, too late. It’s on 466, but I think you know that already.

Went there for the first time yesterday. Put a Golden Arch in front of it and you have another McDonalds. Will try again for Ice Cream but sure won't rush to eat there again.

The only advantages McDonalds has over Culvers is that McDonald's serves breakfast and has pretty good coffee. Culvers is my go to place for fast food burgers/chicken. Culvers' salads are great - also fish dinners and shrimp. Just my 2 cents.

Every once in awhile I just love a quarter pounder from McDonalds. Both of our kids worked at McDonald's during High School. They told us how clean it was and the managers expect the scrubbing even under the tables after closing. McDonalds restrooms are the ones we use on long trips in the car.

I can find something decent to eat just about everywhere, granted not as healthy or just right as the food at home, but a nice little experience.
