After three separate experiences at this location, I’m annoyed and need to leave a review.
I grew up in Texas and hadn’t had Whataburger in almost 10 years. I recently moved back and was genuinely excited to come here. Instead, every visit has been disappointing because of the employees’ attitudes and the complete lack of professionalism.
The first issue is with the young woman who takes orders outside. This was my second interaction with her, and both times she came across as rude. The first time, I pulled up driving towards the menu and noticed her standing about 8-10 feet away near what looked like an air conditioning unit. She gave a small wave, so I rolled my window down and asked, “Oh, are you taking my order?” Her response was, “Yeah, I’m standing here.”
I told her I honestly didn’t realize because she was standing so far away and wasn’t walking close to my car nor is near the menu. Instead of walking over, she stayed where she was and asked what I wanted to order. How am I supposed to know what I want when I have no menu to look at? I explained that I couldn’t see the menu, and only then did she finally walk over and hand me one. The entire interaction felt like I was inconveniencing her.
The second visit was with the same employee. I ordered a Chicken Strip Meal, and when she asked what sauces I wanted, I said ketchup. Then I asked if the meal came with gravy. She responded, “That’s what I meant when I asked what sauces you wanted.”
I explained that it had been about 10 years since I’d been to Whataburger and that I remembered gravy automatically coming with the meal, so I didn’t realize I needed to request it. Instead of simply explaining the change, the interaction became awkward, and she started muttering under her breath. Again, it felt like I was being treated like an idiot for asking a simple question.
Another thing that makes absolutely no sense is the constant pulling cars forward. Every time I’ve been here, there have been no cars behind me and no line at the drive-thru, yet I’m still told to pull to the yellow line or even farther. On one visit, I had barely stopped where they directed me before an employee was already walking my food out. What was the point?
The third visit was what pushed me to finally write this review. I decided to go inside instead of dealing with the drive-thru. The employee at the front acted like my presence was an inconvenience. No greeting. No smile. No “Welcome to Whataburger.” She slowly made her way to the register and took my order with zero customer service.
While I was eating, the restaurant was full of employees acting like they were hanging out after school instead of working. They were jumping on each other’s backs, yelling, laughing, running around, and carrying on while the manager stood there and allowed it. It was loud, immature, and completely unprofessional.
I’ve worked in customer service and management, so I understand people have bad days. But this wasn’t one bad interaction—it was three separate visits with the same pattern: rude employees, poor customer service, and management that seems perfectly fine with unprofessional behavior.
This location desperately needs better hiring, better training, and managers who actually hold employees accountable.
