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.

    I had such an amazing experience at Whataburger thanks to Hillary and Moses. They were incredibly friendly and brought such great energy that it truly felt like a family- and community-friendly environment. They knew the menu well, explained the special deals, gave great suggestions, and were so personable and welcoming. Their positive attitudes made this more than just a meal—it was an experience I’ll never forget. Huge shoutout to both of them for outstanding service!

    Went at 11pm. Ordered 2 doubles with 2 fries. Unmodified. Got home. Only got 1 double and 1 fry. Looked at the recpiet and did indeed order and pay 2 doubles with 2 fries. I was too mad to go back. They closed 700 US-29 location, I hope they close down this one too.
