About

Culver's is a Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin-based fast-food chain — privately owned and operated by Culver Franchising System, LLC — specializing in ButterBurgers (fresh never-frozen beef patties cooked to order on a buttered, toasted bun), Wisconsin cheese curds (fresh white cheddar curds hand-breaded and basket-fried), and frozen custard (daily rotating flavors churned from a recipe using fresh dairy and egg yolks for the dense, creamy texture that distinguishes custard from regular soft-serve). Founded in 1984 by Craig and Lora Culver in Sauk City, Wisconsin, Culver's has grown to 950+ locations across 26 states, concentrated in the Midwest and expanding South and West with annual system-wide sales estimated at $2.5 billion — making it one of the largest privately-held regional fast-food chains in the US.
