Culver’s Menu with Prices and Calories

Culver's menu

Fresh, never frozen beef hits the flat top when the order lands. The bun is buttered at the crown before it toasts, which is where the name came from. The Culver’s menu runs that ButterBurger from a Single up to a Triple, with cheese, bacon, mushroom and Swiss layered on top.

Fresh frozen custard fills the other half of the counter, spun into shakes, malts and Concrete Mixers. Chicken tenders, hand-battered cod and three salads round out the savoury side. Wisconsin Cheese Curds, crinkle cut fries, onion rings and pretzel bites each come in Medium, Large and Family portions.

The short answer

The Culver’s menu prices ButterBurgers by patty count, from a Single up to a Triple. Cheese curds, crinkle cut fries, onion rings and pretzel bites each run Medium, Large and Family. Frozen custard is listed by format and cup size. Each line covers whatever flavour is running that day.

Culver’s Menu Prices and Calories

The Culver’s menu splits between a burger counter and a custard stand. Both work out of one kitchen. ButterBurgers scale by patty count, sides scale by portion, and frozen custard scales by cup or scoop. Chicken tenders, cod, salads and pretzel bites fill the space between them.

Sized items take one line per size, so a Medium and a Family portion never share a row. The Culver’s menu keeps every figure beside its own item. Wisconsin Cheese Curds, crinkle cut fries, onion rings and pretzel bites all run that ladder. Shakes, malts and Concrete Mixers follow the same rule, one line per cup from the smallest up to a Large.

Culver’s ButterBurger Prices

Every ButterBurger starts with fresh beef seared on a flat top. The bun is buttered at the crown and toasted. Patty count sets the line, so a Single, Double and Triple each take their own. Cheese, the Deluxe with lettuce and tomato, the Bacon Deluxe, the Mushroom & Swiss and the two melts all build off that same base.

Culver’s Cod and Sandwich Menu

North Atlantic cod comes hand-battered and dropped when the order lands, a habit borrowed from the Wisconsin fish fry. Pork Loin arrives pounded thin and breaded. The Harvest Veggie Burger builds its patty from vegetables and grains rather than beef, and it lands on the same toasted bun. Beef Pot Roast, the Grilled Reuben Melt, Grilled Cheese and a Corn Dog fill out the sandwich board.

Culver’s Cheese Curds and Fries

Wisconsin Cheese Curds reach the kitchen fresh from local dairies. Batter and hot oil turn them into something that pulls apart at the first bite. Jalapeño Cheese Curds bring a pepper-flavoured version in the same three portions.

Onion rings and pretzel bites share the same Medium, Large and Family ladder on the Culver’s menu, while crinkle cut fries add a Small. Chili Cheddar Fries come as a Medium or a Family. Coated in wheat batter, the curds declare dairy and wheat together.

Culver’s Frozen Custard Menu

Fresh frozen custard is churned in small batches through the day. That is why the Flavor of the Day changes from one restaurant to the next. Shakes and malts spin the custard thick, and a Concrete Mixer folds mix-ins straight through it. The Culver’s menu sets custard by format and size rather than by flavour, so each line covers whatever is scooping that day.

Turtle and Caramel Cashew Sundaes come in one, two or three scoops, the same ladder as a Create Your Own Dish. Root beer, Fanta Orange and Coca-Cola floats each pour in Small, Medium and Large, and Handpacked Pints go home in vanilla or chocolate.

Culver’s Kids’ Meals

Kids’ Meals on the Culver’s menu build around a single ButterBurger, two chicken tenders, a grilled cheese or a corn dog. Culver’s attaches only the main’s calorie figure to each meal, so the meal price stands alone.

Culver’s Sauces and Dressings

Culver’s Signature Sauce, Buttermilk Ranch and Ken’s Boom Boom Sauce lead a dipping list built for cheese curds, tenders and onion rings. Wisconsin Cheddar Cheese Sauce comes by the cup for pouring over fries or pretzel bites. Tartar and cocktail sauce sit with the seafood, and the Ken’s dressings double as salad toppers.

Culver’s Hours

Culver’s restaurants generally open at ten in the morning and close at ten at night. Friday and Saturday push that close back by an hour at a lot of sites. Drive-thru windows often outlast the dining room, and every restaurant sets its own times, so the pattern below is the common one.

DayTypical hours
Monday10:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m.
Tuesday10:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m.
Wednesday10:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m.

Sunday10:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m.

Culver’s Locations

Culver’s trades from more than a thousand restaurants, almost all of them franchised and family run. Wisconsin holds the largest cluster by a wide margin. The estate thins out toward either coast, and the support centre sits in Prairie du Sac. That is a few miles upriver from the Sauk City corner where the first one opened.

What to Expect Inside a Culver’s

Culver’s takes the order at a counter, hands over a numbered stand, and a server brings the tray out to the table. Dining rooms lean toward booths and a family trade rather than a queue-and-go layout. A drive-thru runs alongside, and larger sites keep a pickup shelf for app orders.

Food is cooked when the order lands, so a ButterBurger takes longer than a warming cabinet would. The custard counter works as its own station, and whatever is churning that day gets posted where the queue can read it. Every Culver’s secret menu build starts from those same parts, asked for at the register.
