CULVER’S is launching three major upgrades to one of its regular menu items in just days.
The improvements will appear in over 1,000 of the fast food chain’s restaurants on June 16 in a move that will rival the likes of Popeyes and McDonald’s.

Culver’s revamped chicken sandwich menu will include the Crispy Chicken, Spicy Crispy Chicken and Grilled Chicken sandwiches.
In a sweeping overhaul to its existing menu, sandwiches will now include an improved chicken filet, crunchier pickle slices, mayo, lettuce, and will be squeezed into a brand new toasted brioche bun.
All the sandwiches will be filled with fresh and improved ingredients which the firm hopes will encourage new customers.
The updates are part of the company’s strategy to renew and improve its items on a regular basis.
Last year, it launched the smokey thick-cut bacon, whilst the Wisconsin chain added a Culver Signature sauce to the menu in 2023.
The release of the sandwiches come as Popeyes added a chicken wrap to its menu in June and McDonald’s revealed it will be bringing back its Chicken Strip Wrap next month.
The menu reveal comes as McDonald’s Snack Wrap has been blasted by fans claiming that they are “horrible” and “stringy”.
The fast food giant first trialled the item in late April, and participating restaurants launched them on May 5.
The strips are made with “juicy, 100% white meat, coated with crispy golden-brown breading and bursting with a bold, new black pepper flavor.”
But according to Loop Capital customers have been less than impressed with the strips.
One analyst said he “hoped the superior taste profile of the new chicken strips would overcome the product’s appearance.”
But fans have slammed the snack on Reddit.
One person said: “These are horrible and taste like oversized Dino nuggets.”
And another claimed that the strips “don’t hold a candle to the chicken selects of the past.”
Others called them “so stringy”, and said that McNuggets are “definitely better”.
