Since 1950, Whataburger has proudly served a bigger, better burger. It all started when a young entrepreneur named Harmon Dobson had a bold idea: to serve a burger so big that it took two hands to hold, and so good that after a single bite customers couldn't help but exclaim, “What a burger!” He named his humble burger stand in Corpus Christi, Texas, “Whataburger.” Over six decades later, we're still family owned and operated. Each and every Whataburger® is still made to order. We still use 100% pure beef and serve it on a big, toasted five-inch bun. And now, as we proudly serve burgers, chicken, salads and breakfast at more than 800 Whataburger locations across the country, that first burger stand is still close to our hearts.
Customers consistently reported long wait times, often exceeding 30 minutes, even with few cars in line.

Go to either of the other 2 locations this one here will take an extra 30 mins passed your online order time to get you your food with no other order in front. Besides the drive thru. I don’t know what this store is doing but it ain’t working.

It should not take this long to order, let alone receive your food. Good food but some of the worse service and wait times I’ve ever experienced
