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.

    Ordered the sweet and spicy bacon burger with added raw onion, ended up betting a regular burger with no sauce and no extra onions wife's fries were cold we also asked for Ketchup and they didn't give us any. 3rd time going to this location and it's either been messed up or just terrible. not going back to this one again, I'd rather drive 30/40 minutes to the one in irmo. even the one by the highway is better than this one.

    It's like a knockoff McDonald's with slightly less standards 😐. Burger was meh fries tasted reheated McDonald's. There was a particular front of house woman who continuously forgot our items while asking for them multiple times across the restaurant as if they aren't on the screen. She was very unhelpful and talked on the phone in the lobby very loudly.
