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.

    Absolutely phenomenal! The #5 Bacon & Cheese Whataburger is Texas perfection on a bun. Every time I crave that classic Whataburger magic, the #5 hits the spot like nothing else. That juicy 100% beef patty paired with crispy hardwood-smoked bacon and perfectly melted American cheese is pure bliss. The fresh lettuce, tomato, and pickles add the ideal crunch, and the toasted five-inch bun holds it all together without falling apart. Made fresh to order, hot, and customizable (not a fan of onions)—it's consistently delicious. Paired with their fries and a Dr Pepper? Unbeatable Texas fast food. Whataburger never misses, but the Bacon & Cheese is next-level comfort food. Worth every bite—I'll be back for this one again and again!

    My mom has never been to a Whataburger so I take her with me tonight through the drive-thru and she excitedly said to the lady, It's my first time ever trying Whataburger! in a very happy tone and then listed what she wanted and the lady gives us this big sigh and my mom was like oh I'm sorry. Was that a lot? and the lady didn't even really say anything. Just told us to pull up and this guy comes in and asks us if we ordered the food that we ordered. We say yes. And as we're speaking with him we hear these people in the back. Joking about oh. It's my first time here at Whataburger! like mimicking My mom. Customer service is shity don't talk shit about my mom.

    literally used to go to whataburger every month on our anniversary but the last 4-6 times it has been absolute shit. the burgers are dry and old and the chicken (if there is even all the tenders) are hard/ stale. not to mention the fact that you dont get your sauces. havnt always been a hater, but $30 for 2 people and disappointment is not it.
