“First visit back in 40 years and still has the same atmosphere as back then. Diverse menu options, lunch specials, friendly service, good food. Glad we decided to revisit after a long absence. one caution: CASH ONLY. That was a surprise when we went to pay as there was no mention of it anywhere ..not on the menu, not by the cashier. Lucky I had enough cash to cover the bill as often it’s credit card only for this patron.“

“I have never ordered kid's meals from Culver's and did not know that the coupon on the paper sack needed to be presented for the free scoop of ice cream. The counter clerk, a young man, and the manager--another young man were very accommodating and understood.my ignorance about the process and looked up my order for the grandkids online and honored the promise of a free scoop. THIS is customer service and I applaud the entire staff for their high standards. --From a Southern Grandma visiting Wisconsin“

“I got a chance to try Coach’s Reuben sandwich and the quesadilla with chicken. Reubens are one of my favorite sandwiches to order, so I can be a little picky about them. This one did not disappoint! The corned beef was the good stuff, shredded, no fatty bits mixed in, and it was really tender. The quesadilla surpassed my expectations for an appetizer. It was a really hearty quesadilla with a tasty mix of fillings and toppings, and I would definitely order it again!“

“I tried the new pub burger and I wasn’t really impressed. It was solid but nothing very special especially considering that price. Other than that the food always hits and the cheese curds are phenomenal. The two workers I’d likely to highlight also are Liam Ness and Tyler Vanswol. They treat everyone with respect and show exceptional service.“
