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.
Customers frequently reported long wait times for food, both in-store and at the drive-thru, even when the restaurant was not busy.

Left without a purchase ... over$7 for a taquito was too much for me.

Whataburger is already not the fastest place and I'm well aware of that but this 20 plus minute wait when there's no customers in the store and only one car sitting in the Drive-Thru is ridiculous.

Ordered ahead and order was not delivered to car until over 20 minutes after the order pick up time. (Pick up tine was 6:28 pm, received food after 6:48pm). Multiple other cars ordered at the restaurant and ordered, paid and received their food during this time. When I asked the young lady who was delivering food to a vehicle behind me why my food was not ready and i had been waiting 20 minutes. She very rudely said “well, we are busy and you have a large order.” My order was $30,(for 2 people). My sister was picking up a $48 order (for 3 people) as well. I cannot imagine that this would be such a complication to take an additional 20 minutes. A simple “I’m sorry about that, let me check” would have been an appropriate response.
