    About the Business

    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.

      First time trying whataburger and gotta say I wasn't expecting the spicy chicken sandwich to be this good 9/10 and the fries were perfect.the service was pretty fast 6 mins, the atmosphere what you expect from a fast food place.

      Whataburger isn't just a meal, it's an experience. If you are visiting TX, you don't experience this on the same level as a Texan does but if you're in the right headspace, it's awesome. First, I want to point out that it's important to manage expectations. When I fly Spirit Airlines, I'm usually satisfied because I don't expect the same level of service & quality I might find on United, Alaska, Delta, & Southwest. I pay less and I get less and that's OK. This is not a steakhouse burger, it's fast food and I feel that it's better than most of the standard chain-faire. Is this the In n' Out of TX? Kind of.

      I'm a Seattle native and I grew up on Dick's Drive-In, which I still love & I believe is the reason that In n' Out will never try to breach the Seattle market. As any Seattle native knows, CA started invading our city in the 1980's and you can easily see the ultimate results of that. I'm not here for social commentary but I will say that WA set themselves up for their fate by already embracing a lot of CA's bad ideas before the invasion began & then enacting them when the echo chamber became overwhelming. I don't think Texans would tolerate that. One of the things I hated about the Californians is how snotty they were about Dick's Drive-In. They would crap all over it because they preferred In n' Out & frankly, I've tried them both many times and I'll stick with DDI.

      This was my third trip to TX, & my first to the Austin area. I have moved to NV since my last visit and my perspective has changed a bit. I think the first two times I visited, I was a snotty Northwesterner & I instinctively looked down on TX because it wasn't like WA. Since I hated the way the CA people did that in WA, I realized I was a hypocrite. This time, I came with a new attitude and I saw it all through a different lens. I love it now. I love how friendly the people are. I love the overall attitude and vibe. Eating at Whataburger was fantastic. I'm not a huge burger eater beyond DDI but I enjoyed this meal more for the experience than for the food. I don't want to short-change the food, it was tasty and the portions were good as well as the prices but the employees and other patrons were wonderful. I had never been to this city before and they treated me like a part of their community. I love food and even do food blogging and videos and I would urge all of my friends to go try Whataburger with an open mind and an appreciation of a true TX experience.

      I've been eating Whataburger for a very long time. They can be very good. Unfortunately the Bastrop location is terrible. I really have come to the end of the line with them. I just can't continue eating there.
      All of y'all from Bastrop know exactly what I'm talking about.

      Food is okay, usual whataburger, but the management kills not only their food and service, but seems to be driving their employees in the same direction. Having sat in there several times she has been observed by my girlfriend and I berating her employees and causing unnecessary disruptions. Maybe a business will run better without a manager that has the ego and emotional maturity of a thirteen year old.

      This place really can't seem to get it together, unfortunately. There is consistently a 30+ minute wait regardless of which method you order (drive thru, walk in, curbside). I was grateful an employee car least came out with my drink to curbside and warned me the food would take a while, but the wait was still ridiculous. Don't come here in a hurry.

      Place is so slow I could have made my meal twice. Real customer, that probably won't come back till the speed is up. Might as well go to Olive Garden.

      I thought this location finally got better and I waited a year after they were on the news for frying a rat! But Another bad experience with this location. They are known for being slow and today no different. I decided not to order but they had moved a car to the right side AND had the drive through completely blocked. When I called to ask if they could please move the car in the lane next to drive thru to a parking spot, she said no. So I had to wait an extended period for no reason!! I definitely will think twice before returning!
