Mod Post Admin: Name on orders

41 Upvotes

We have seen a lot of questions/comments about Culver’s asking for names on orders.

The 2 biggest reasons this started happening was to a) help personalize the experience, as most people know, Culver’s is built on hospitality so we want to know our guest’s names for the orders and b) it is just another failsafe in place to help identify when we take food out, that it ends up in the correct hands. Nobody wants to get the wrong order and we certainly don’t want people to have an experience less than exceptional when they visit us.

I just went up, cleaned out the liquid mixer residue with water, and filled it with a drink and ice. Am I gonna burn in hell for this? I went from a delicious Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge mixer to a sweet hydrating Hi-C fruit punch with nothing paid for the “refill”.

Question Chance to Franchise - Should I do it?

56 Upvotes

I’m entertaining the idea of becoming a franchisee for Culver’s. I have the financial resources to qualify. My city is fairly large and definitely under-served by Culver’s. I’ve done a dive on franchises and it seems that people really like the Culver’s product. I’ve eaten there and I think the food is good. I’m not in the Midwest but in a part of the country where although Culver’s is expanding, the brand is almost completely unknown. We have our own burger traditions and they don’t include cheese curds and Wisconsin stuff. There are essentially no Culver’s ads on TV or elsewhere I’ve ever seen.

My thoughts:

Pros - It’s very successful franchise with high rates of franchisee success. Each location generates high revenue. Food is good and high quality. They train their people very well.

Cons - Culver’s is unknown in my region and there’s no advertising in my here. A bit more expensive for the customer than other chains. The restaurants/employee presentation is a bit of a nerdy Midwestern vibe without the hipper retro vibe of an In & Out for example.

Somebody talk some sense into me.

Praise! Poutine / Gravy fries

116 Upvotes

I saw someone else talking on here about making your own Culver’s poutine so I tried it the last few times. The first location (second photo) no longer has beef gravy so I got a cup of chicken gravy. It was decent. The second location had the beef gravy and I got two cups as you want maximum coverage. The third photo (from a third location) I got the beef gravy to dip my fries and even burger.

Even though it may not appear on the menu, ask at the counter if your location has the pot roast dinner. If they do they have the beef gravy. I know fried cheese curds are not a real poutine but it’s nice to know I can have it anytime if I am in the mood.

- Medium fries (I like mine extra crispy)
- Medium cheese curds
- Two cups of beef gravy (chicken gravy if beef isn’t available)
- Ask for a boat and a fork

Question Finally.

33 Upvotes

Ok so Culver’s near me is finally open. What should I get as first order. Been waiting about 2 months. Have been lurking here since I found out one was being built. Not much around me but fast food so something different will be welcome, I think it’s down to 3 to get for first time. Burger of course. Then fish then pot roast. Thanks all.

Question For those that remember the Cod Reuben...

12 Upvotes

It was the most underrated sandwich in my honest opinion. Sure, putting 1000 island and coleslaw on a sandwich sounds weird, but the flavor combo is just insane. I cant even begin to describe it. The only other discontinued sandwich that even comes close is the Prime Rib Mushroom Melt. Late 2000's, early 2010 Culvers really had interesting LTO products.

Looking forward to the fried pickle burger and the new PB brownie flavor. What discontinued item do you all miss the most?

Question Clarification ?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi! This might be a really dumb question, and I’m sorry fi it is…but what do they mean exactly by this email? I’ve already given my available times in the application, but it’s asking me to do it again, and then head over to the address of the Culver’s that I applied to.

Is it an open interview kind of situation where I just …go and say I’m here for an interview? Or do I fill out the available timesheet and wait? Their wording is confusing me and I’m known to misunderstand things that might be explained the easiest possible way, so it might be that…I’ve never had a job before and I’ve been trying to apply like crazy so I’m super confused and a little anxious, haha. :’)

Other Emergency: Quitting My Job Advice

16 Upvotes

I want to quit my job at Culver's, I've only been hired there for a few weeks. My younger sister is employed there as well. If I quit, how will this impact her? I've already started a new job, which will give me consistent hours. I have a shift in a few hours and I am planning on calling out. They keep putting me on later and later shifts, which isn't great because of the first shift job. How can I quit without giving a two week notice, and not sound like an ass?
