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.

I've been coming to this location for years now, and it's for sure my favorite location in town. I've never had issues with any employes, and they are always helpful and kind. Aside from having to wait awhile sometimes, food is always fresh, everytime I get it, and they always get my order correct everytime! I'm unsure of her name, but the woman they have working the window at this time of the year , is so kind and always has a smile on her face! She's always so excited to see my dog when I come through!

Last supper. Visitors from the north came to visit & wanted to eat here. They had heard so much about it being Big in Texas. Use to be great in the 70’s when the Dobson Family owned & ran it. But it’s like everything else, franchises, stock market, sell outs. Its claim to be a whataburger is not anymore. I understand the pricing, but quality control is a zero. The whole burger doesn’t meet the expectations of the title of being a Whataburger. The visitors sort of gave it an ok just to be nice. Once a Texas treasure has now disappeared. It was born a whataburger, but hasn’t met that title in many years & it’s sad. Please reinvent the old days & make it a Texas treasure again.

It's alright, one of the workers cut off my grandma when she knew she was in the middle of a conversation.

I hear my order being called out to the customer in front of me waiting for a drive-through carry out. Parked in front of me. The gentleman in the truck opens my bag places his hands inside realizes it’s not his food and carries this bag inside. I immediately follow the customer and tell him he must’ve received my order and he said yes, they should remake it and I said exactly the reason I’m going inside as I walk inside the gentleman that carried the bag out is trying to neatly refold my sack hand it to another employee and tells her to bring it to the other truck. I then stated no, I do not want that. I want to change my order because you are not supposed to hand customer food when another customer has touched it. The lady argued I didn’t know that the guy had his hand in the sack and said it doesn’t matter. It was given to another customer therefore, it is unsafe to hand me that food. She gave me attitude and continued laughing, as if it was nothing serious. I will no longer eat at this location. The manager was nice and understood my concern while the other two employees thought it was a joke or treated it as it if it was a joke this is not safe practice. I appreciate the manager allowing me to change my order because of the concern, I did not want to receive the same sandwich. Food safety should be trained to the two employees who were careless and tried to refold the sack neatly.
