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.

- MCMark Conover5 days ago4.0The hamburger that I ordered was good but it took a little bit longer than usual to get.
- IRIris Ramos6 days ago1.0I went today during my lunch, and the fries and burger were cold. Not only were the tomatoes on the burger old and had some white stuff, The fries were cold and streamly salty, I couldn’t even eat them.

- NLNestor LopezDec 30, 20255.0Un par de hamburguesas, tipo lunch, para que !! Deliciosas y lo mejor preparadas al momento a la vista...
- ADAndrew DavisonDec 9, 20255.0Iris and her entire team made this entire ordeal way better than expected. I admittingly ordered my food wrong, forgetting to take something off, instead of telling me to just take it off and eat. Iris came up and offered to remake the order at no charge, and to let her know what it was I wanted to be fixed. When I tell you that shifted the entire way my day was going! It made me remember “do to those as you would want one to do to you.” That is the type of leadership I want to see more of.
