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.

Food is mid but the late night mall cops that guard the front entrance are straight dungeon level. Avoid this chain like the plague and solicit the many wonderful local establishments in the downtown/River Walk area.

We visited late (around 11:45pm) on a Friday night. Not being local, we were a it taken aback that we had to wait in line outside before we could go in to order. We discovered why, and it made sense, but it was just a bit off-setting at first.
The staff seemed to be simply going through the motions, and the food simply is not what Whataburger was before the sell-out in 2020.

Service here isn't that great. When I walked up to the counter and said hi to the lady, she didn't even bother to return my greeting. My questions were met with terse, one-word responses. After I ordered and got my cup, I walked to the soda fountain. A homeless man was throwing ice with his bare hands at the machine and randomly pushing the levers to dispense different sodas. I used the other fountain (luckily there are two). Many of the tables were sticky with old soda and coffee stains even though I was there in the morning and the restaurant wasn't busy. That's the kind of place this is, I guess. At least the breakfast taquitos were tasty.
