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.

Pulled in her about 712 on a Tuesday morning, no other cars ahead of me. Ordered 1 SEC biscuit meal and 1 SEC taquito meal. Pull up to the windows, received my drinks immediately. Didn't receive my food until after 730. Almost a 20 minute wait for 2 of their basic breakfast items. Worst part? Food wasn't even hot like it was made fresh and was? WHAT WAS THE HOLDUP. people expect fast food to be FAST. I've even tried ordering ahead on the app. Same issue. You have to check in and wait 10-15 minutes before you get food. What's the point of ordering ahead on an app if it's not going to speed it up? It's ridiculous.

We were just in the Whataburger in Defuniak springs FL and I have never seen a team get through a big crowd like this team did at Defuniak, amazing speed! I would stop there again! I do a lot of travel and I usually don’t go to places I normally stop at but I took a chance here and I was very impressed today! Good team!

Friendly staff, milkshakes, malts, apple pies are all delicious. Pattymelt, buffalo ranch chicken tender sandwich, regular and spicy chicken sandwich, fries and onion rings are all good as well. I have had my food temp luke warm on more than one occasion so I just ask for fresh which they do now and makes it much better.

The one and only time I’ve come to this Whataburger and they decided to mess up my order and the service, was not the best!! I asked for a number 4 and they decided to give me a number 5 and just because I’m running on time I didn’t go back to argue for the food that I paid for !!

Filthy. Poor kid behind the counter kept sneezing into his shirt then took orders and handed out food. Waited 20 minutes (ordered inside) for a salad.... no dressing. That's OK, the chicken smelled funny anyway. Skip this one, folks, and Management, DO BETTER. WHY WOULD YOU LET A CLEARLY SICK KID STAY AT WOR??
