Review of Culver's

On the Gluten Free Utah Facebook page, a few people have said that Culver’s is one of their go-to’s for fast food, so I thought I’d try it. I think I’ve even read that they use the same brand of GF bun that Red Robin uses, which is amazing. The cashier was pretty knowledgeable about what was gluten free, and said they had gluten free buns for burgers but the fryer is NOT dedicated. For the basket combos, you can choose fries, mashed potatoes, or broccoli as a side. I asked if the mashed potatoes were gluten free, and she pulled out a pamphlet to check—without gravy, they’re gluten free. So I got the classic butter burger as a double, with the gluten free bun, mashed potatoes without the gravy, and their house made root beer. My food took longer and I eventually had to go check on it. Haha, apparently it had been ready and was sitting on a higher up tray, they just forgot to grab it with my family’s order. The burger came deconstructed with the bun still wrapped in its own sealed wrapper (I imagine it was frozen and they warmed it up). The burger was SO amazing. The plain mashed potatoes needed a lot of salt. Next time I’ll order the burger and drink on their own and use the money I saved on a side to get some frozen custard. I was afraid I was starting to react a few hours later, but I think it was just a little indigestion that went away. I’m still dreaming about that amazing burger!
