The long awaited Culver’s in Hope Mills is now open to serve midwestern favorites to the community. 

On Monday, Oct. 14, the Hope Mills community came together with Franchisee and Owner Adrian Madsen and his family and with the new Culver’s staff to officially cut the ribbon. 

“This family found Culver’s when these two (his children) were young. And we chose it because we trust the food, we like the cleanliness and we love the atmosphere. Fifteen years ago in Colorado, all the way to today, we’ve been building. And it’s been a long journey from that pile of dirt to here and I’m like a five-year old at Christmas right now,” said Madsen. 

Culver’s Hope Mills location can be found off of Camden Rd at 3320 S Peak Drive.

Lobby, dine-in and drive thru hours are from 10:30 a.m.- 10:00 p.m. Monday through Sunday. 

This location is  the first Culver’s franchise in North Carolina outside of the Raleigh or Charlotte areas.

With over 970 locations, the restaurant chain has spread throughout 26 states with a majority being housed in the Midwest.

Culver’s has been a staple to the Midwest since 1984 when Founders Craig and Lea Culver along with Craig’s parents George and Ruth, opened the very first Culver’s in the family’s hometown of Sauk City, Wisconsin. Since then, the restaurant chain has grown in popularity with their famous ButterBurgers® and Frozen Custard.

The restaurants’ nationally recognized customer service is based on small-town, Midwestern values, genuine friendliness and an unwavering commitment to quality. Signature items include the award-winning ButterBurger, made from fresh, never frozen beef, and Fresh Frozen Custard, including the famous Flavor of the Day program.
