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.

Burger great.
Fries hot but quickly turned soggy. They tasted like they'd been fried in old grease...heavy, lingering bitterness like some kind of metallic oiliness.
Friendliness of employee... meh... neither friendly nor unfriendly.
Went through the drive through so atmosphere is pretty much n/a here. Nice location though. I'm glad the driveway is off of a side street and not a busy highway.
This experience didn’t turn me off to Whataburger, but I'd probably try another location to compare before giving up on the chain in this area.

Drive thru sounded like I was interrupting something. I'm in service so I get bad days but it's the job. No cream and sugar with my coffee so I can't drink it and the gave me the wrong sandwich. Guess it will be Chick-fil-A tomorrow.

Ordered my usual Double Meat Whataburger Jr. add cheese combo. Sat in drive through for all of 16 minutes. Burger was warm and fries were cold. Pulled around to walk the fries back in and fries were replaced, but worker was unpleasant. Cold fries were put in the trash bin. Returned back to my car to the burger it was so hard to chew, like the meat was rubber. I counted it all a loss. Worst experience ever, do better.
