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.
Circa-1950 fast-food chain for counter-serve burgers, some stacked with multiple patties.

Reviews
To start though, the cashier was awesome. Friendly. Polite. Patient with a pre-teen who couldn’t make up his mind. LOL
But after several visits at this location, the trend is there. Repeatedly the burger patties are overdone, the sandwiches are disassembled so mustard is all over the wrapper and outside of the bun. The buns (tonight) seemed unduly flat and stale. Fries are usually very good and their soda dispensers provide excellent flavored Coke (no…not all Coke is the same everywhere). Breakfast biscuits leave much to be desired; Often hard and dry. Eggs only so-so. It doesn’t help that a Whataburger that is closer to my house is even worse.
I think I’ll save my Whataburger $$$ for those in Texas.
I live in Duluth so when the whataburgers opened up there’s one in Buford and then there’s one in Cumming. The few times I drove past the Buford location, the drive-thru line always looked insane.
I went ahead and tried out the cumming location today.
They have two lane drive-thru. I was able to order my food and get out of the drive-thru within minutes. The food was fresh and hot.
I tried the Monterey burger. It was pretty good.
The person taking the order through the drive through was very nice as was the lady standing passing out the orders.
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to bite into a burger that tastes like regret, congratulations — Whataburger in Forsyth County has perfected the recipe.
From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the unmistakable aroma of… is that sadness? Burnt hopes? Hard to tell. The staff looks like they’re being held hostage by the fryer, and honestly, after tasting the food, I understand why.
The burger itself? A true miracle of modern culinary science — they’ve somehow managed to make a patty both dry and greasy at the same time. The bun dissolves on contact, as if it realized too late that it didn’t want to be part of this experience either. And the toppings? Let’s just say the lettuce had the kind of crunch you only get from produce that’s contemplating retirement.
The fries? Well, if you enjoy eating warm pencil shavings, you’ll be thrilled.
But the real highlight is the wait time — because after 25 minutes of sitting in the drive-thru, you’ve aged enough to forget why you even wanted a burger in the first place. By the time you get your food, you’re just grateful life still has meaning.
In conclusion:
If you’re craving disappointment wrapped in wax paper, look no further. This Whataburger delivers — just not food worth eating.
Edit: I asked a worker why they couldn’t help me and they said they don’t have the ability to change the oil at this time. I asked why and the response I got was they don’t have access to clean oil. This is ridiculous how can you not have access to clean oil at this business. It is a restaurant that continuously serves food from fryers and the grill. They asked me if I would like a refund and I said no because I wanted my onion rings. I would hate to ask for a refund and still eat the product because they couldn’t help me. It is not the fault of the employees but the fault of whoever runs this business not letting access to clean oil. It should be able to accessed all day and night.
