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.
Numerous customers reported long wait times and poor service, with many experiencing delays of 30 minutes or more for their orders.

This place is trash! Waited almost an hour to get my food on curbside. I had to go inside and tell them I had an online order

Terrible service. Two women, one named Liza and the other with purple hair, were very rude. They shouldn't work in customer service if they don't like it. Terrible staff .

My experience was horrible , don’t recommend this whataburger at all , white girl at the front is very rude , her name is Liza , she was making faces and was talking about the costumers , i sat and watched how she had a long line and was told by her manager to stay focus on her duty because she’ll wonder off talking with her friend with purple hair( black girl ). Purple hair girl would give off the orders and wouldn’t even kindly give you the food she would just toss it in the table as if she’s making us a favor of bringing it. Very rude staffs with no costumer service manners. Food shouldn’t take over 35 mins , it wasn’t even hot . They need to start firing ppl there .

i will say at one point my experience with this location was actually good..... Now to the present horrible service horrible staff the over night manager " african guy" rude rude rude his staff on that shift a bunch of high teens who clearly don't want to work rude n when you ask them something they just stare at you crazy. The only manger that seems to care is this lady she always apologizing which if she had a good crew she shouldn't have to. Food comes out cold drinks flat they really need to do better

If I was you I would just go to the next Whataburger, I dined this location frequent and they have issues for breakfast lunch and dinner with production. As an outsider perspective it might be due to the revolving door of employees over there caused by bad management. If you're just by yourself and you come in for a Whataburger it'll take you about 30 minutes to get out of there. The app needs a lot of work and barely communicates to the Whataburger's correctly. There are still a good locations but this one is a waste of your time. I've yet to get a hot meal from this place even while waiting for a long time.
