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 generally praised the food quality, especially the burgers and fries, but some reported issues with cold or stale items.

First time having a Whataburger burger. Was good and was seasoned nicely. Will definitely try again.

The food here is great, the service is OK, and the atmosphere is average. The employees do great work on the food. This location is "trying" and I feel that. I've been to many locations. My favorite thing about this location is the hand sanitizer dispensers. The thing I dislike the most is the (disrespectful) employees they've had in and out of this location. Obviously, they are not all bad, but... Do better. Never forget that your customers provide the revenue that pays your check and keeps money in your pocket. If you treat your customers poorly, they will go to a restaurant where they are treated better. Lose enough customers and you lose your job. Note: I marked Dine In, But I eat at various Whataburger locations at different times of the day. Sometimes drive-thru, sometimes dine-in. Best of luck.

I really love Whataburger, and this place didn't let me down. Very friendly staff, very clean, and the food came out quick. If you like burgers that are higher quality than most fast food, this is for you. They have breakfast too, but I haven't tried it.

I just wanted to let the company know that one of their employees that I had the pleasure of doing business with tonight in the drive thru is a total sweetheart and goes above and beyond for the customers. I don't know what her name is but is the lady that's working this evening at 11:05 p.m. this Monday night. She absolutely needs a raise! She's definitely the kind of employee that will put a smile on your face just going through the drive-thru getting some food. Oh and the food was amazing as always!
Update: I have to come on here and brag about another lady employee that they have. She's got a blonde and purple hair. She is a total sweetheart as well. We talked while I waited on my food which was hot, fresh and yummy by the way. I love going to this location at night on my way to work because the employees are always so friendly. You guys have some great staff and some good food!
