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.

    Service is normally really slow here. I get that lunchtime is busy, but they should also be staffed for the lunch rush. Last time I ordered via the Whataburger app and, said I would be there between 11:55a-12:05p. After arriving at 12:02p and checking in to spot #2 (directly in front of the store)....I waited. and waited....and then waited some more. Finally at 12:15 I went inside, to find my cold hamburger and fries and partially melted milkshake waiting on the shelf. The employee at the front counter stammered and blamed the back-of-house staff for clearing the status of my order, or something like that. I think I'll try another restaurant next time for lunch.

    This Whataburger location is noticeably cleaner, and the atmosphere feels completely different compared to about a year ago. I bring my cleaning crew here for lunch from time to time, and we’ve all noticed the positive change. The new staff is friendly, attentive, and does a great job keeping the place welcoming. Definitely a big improvement—keep up the great work!

    Huge improvement at the Whataburger in La Porte. The food is fresh, service is fast, and the management has completely turned this location around compared to past visits. Much faster than the location by Walmart. Definitely recommend.
