History

Established in 1950.

A bigger, better burger since 1950.

In 1950, our founder Harmon Dobson opened the first Whataburger in a tiny stand in Corpus Christi, Texas. And even though the bigger, better burgers cost a quarter apiece — a price unheard of at the time — Whataburger was an instant success. A legend was born.

Today, we continue to stay true to Harmon’s original vision. We’re still family owned and operated, and every Whataburger is still made to order, right when you order it. All served with pride, using 100% pure beef on a hearty, five-​inch bun. And while we now have more than 700 locations stretching from Arizona to Florida, we’ll never forget our start in that humble burger stand in Corpus Christi. We think Harmon would be proud.
