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.

- CHCollin HardyNov 4, 20252.0I placed a mobile order for pick up when I arrived there was three to four people in front of me waiting for help while they were being taken care of a rush started to happen and a flood of people arrived. Instead of being next all 40-50 people were helped before me. 45 minutes later I was approached and asked if I needed help only to be informed that my one sandwich had been ready and sitting in the back the whole time. Fun.
- EWEmily WycpalekOct 18, 20255.0This is our family’s home Whataburger... it always delivers! Whether it’s grabbing a drink on the way home or a full meal for the whole family, they never miss. The staff is always kind, quick, and efficient, making sure everyone gets in and out safely. We’ve even gone inside a few times with our younger relatives, and they’ve been so sweet and patient with them. It means a lot, and we really appreciate the team here!
