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.

    18 minutes to get my order. It was wrong. Floors are dirty and greasy and you slide while standing there. $17 for a burger, onion rings, large drink. Then another .54 for the plastic cup that came with my wife’s meal. Don’t know why hers was free and mine wasn’t. Whatever. But with these extremely high prices I expect more.

    The morning staff is always ready, I go here every morning for my daily routine , in fact I'm glad the staff knows everything that goes on like when my tooth(I take it out when eating or drinking) was taken off my table along with the pen I do my Bible verse with. The evening shift was kind enough to let me know it was one of their managers, yet my tooth is still not there. Hopefully it returns soon as I don't have $1200 to replace it . It's also wonderful to see different faces daily . Keeps a smile on my face.

    Great service when placing the order. They had a busy drive thru line and still managed to get my take out order done in a reasonable amount of time. Too bad some seemed to have a slight negative attitude towards the busy night. The location will lend itself to being busy. Gotta prepare for what's to come at a busy intersection. Food was a decent temperature and taste.
