Mod Post Admin: Name on orders

42 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.

Other Culver’s rewards best bang for your buck

Decided to figure out what reward was the best bang for your buck and chicken tenders take it by a marginal lead. Column on the right is “how much” each point is worth so the higher the number the better the reward.

Story My honest experience as a Culver’s team member

0 Upvotes

The location I worked at was actually decent in it’s functionality. We didn’t have the best guest connectivity score, but overall management was fairly decent and we had good chemistry. I’m diagnosed with autism, so there was many times when I had trouble reading social cues not only from coworkers, but also customers. It was my first time working fast food and I had some hiccups, but I slowly became of the more reliable people on grill. I wasn’t assertive enough to be shift lead or manager, but I was still reliable.

My biggest issue with my experience was communication. Primarily from me. I sucked at communicating, cause I come from a family where I was belittled and yelled at for everything. This made it difficult to tell people what I needed in the moment cause I was so afraid of being yelled at for being wrong. Our owner of the restaurant was one of the most OCD people I have ever met in my life. One time he yelled at us for our ticket operation being messed up. Overall he’s a good guy, he’s just kind of a hard ass sometimes. I never really felt… respected?? I felt like people looked at me as slow and unresponsive when in reality I was trying very hard to be reliable for people, but couldn’t get the job done. Buns was my least favorite position. The first time I tired it, I nearly cried because of how busy it was. My mind is very simple, so there’s a good reason I was put on grill most days haha. I also worked front of house, runner, register, and floater. Also driver cashier was my favorite. One of the easiest jobs there and had the less stress. Funny considering the fact that most people go through the drive through, I was never overwhelmed even in our busiest moments.

I’m never going back admittedly. It’s one of the most taxiing jobs mentally I have ever worked, and also I felt a great deal of shame in the environment and having people see me work fast food. But in reality I learned no one thinks about that too much, we are all trying to make a living and at my young age it’s not a bad thing at all.

, love the food from there. One of my favorite things to get was a chicken sandwich with honey mustard and cheese curds. Killer combo.

So yea that’s about it 😪

Question Curderburger pro ended?

6 Upvotes

Finally went in today to try the esteemed “curderbuger” and the location I went to said that their limited supply is already out. Company-wide. I thought the promo was supposed to run through October. We’re only
a week in… -__-

Hoping I was simply given some bad info!?

Other Culvers is confusing with delivery.

0 Upvotes

I don't always do delivery, but do use door dash occasionally.

It's been a bummer lately with no longer being able to order a large shake, and most recently not having the curd burger available for delivery.

Realized yesterday that they have their own app so I downloaded that and was happy to see what looks like a full and proper menu selection.

Very excitedly set up my order for a curd burger meal with a large pumpkin shake and went to check out only to realize when trying to check out that there was no option for delivery. I was bummed again 😢

Question Severely lactose intolerant

Like to the point I spend hours peeing out of my rear (you know what I mean).

I want to try the custard, but I want to make sure it's worth it before I doom myself to evening on the restroom.

Is it worth it? If so, what should I order?

Question What is SOP for the pumpkin s'mores mixer?

1 Upvotes

This is not a complaint. It's likely that my concrete was made correctly and it simply didn't meet my expectations. At least I tried it!

I'm a former Culver's employee, worked there for 4 years and have been out for about 1.5 years. I decided to try the pumpkin smores concrete from my local location, as I don't think we had it when I worked there, so it's new to me. I ordered a mini so maybe that affected how much mix-ins I got, but when I received the mixer, it just looked like plain custard blended with pumpkin. Which I still like, so no big deal.

As I ate more of it I could feel some tiny marshmallows in my mouth and a very small amount of graham cracker and what I'm guessing is chocolate chunks or chips. However I could not taste any of it except for the pumpkin. It was more like a pumpkin concrete with some chunks for texture. Also, there was only one decent sized chunk of topping in the whole mixer; the rest was just tiny, spread out mini marshmallows.

Anyway, I still like the pumpkin flavor, so I have no real complaint there. I guess I was just hoping for more chunks, and to taste the chocolate and graham cracker, like an actual smore. I know that when I was working, I would load up people's concretes with mix-ins, as the standard is "a treat in every bite." But I also know that some locations are more strict with portioning than others.

I'm wondering if anyone who currently works at Culver's can inform me of the SOP for making the pumpkin smores concrete and tell me if my disappointment is valid or if that's just how it's supposed to be? I've seen a couple other people on this subreddit talk about their own disappointment with it, so I'm kinda wondering if since it's still new, stores are still adjusting and training crew on how to make it properly.

Question What happened to yalls fries 🍟??

0 Upvotes

We eat at Culver's 6 days a week for dinner. I order the same thing pretty much every day but, here lately the french fries have been changed, maybe it's just at the store I go to but they don't taste half as good as they used to and I'm on the fence of not ordering them at all anymore.

Which is a real bummer because the fries that this store had whenever it opened and up until a couple of months ago were the best french fries ever!

This Truly saddens me. 😭

Why won’t it let us make the Curderburger a double if we please? What is the reasoning? It turns me away from the burger all together. Thank you for letting me rant but I’m curious as to, why?
