Whataburger food and service

My wife and i went through the Whataburger store #116 drive thru earlier this afternoon (6/27/2019) about 4:45pm. We ordered a Whatameal #1 (with fries and a large sweet tea), a Whatameal #5 (with Onion rings and large Dr. Pepper), and a Patty Melt combo (with fries and large sweet tea).

At the drive thru, we were told that they ran out of large cups, so we got the last large cup and two medium cups. I looked at the drive thru employee and asked him about this and he said that they ran out of large cups. He didn't offer to reimburse me or do something about the order until the manager stepped in. The manager asked me what I wanted and we settled on an extra medium sweet tea.

When we got our food, there were no onion rings but rather three fries. I asked a second time about the order and they added the onion rings to the order.

They did not ask us if we wanted condiments or straws. We had to ask for it ourselves.

Once we got our order, the burgers were good (as usual) but the fries and old, stale, and overcooked. They were not even edible. I threw mine away and just ate the burger and drank the sweet tea.

I have been eating at Whataburgers (including store #116) for decades. It is one of the monthly experiences I look forward to on payday. I need my Whataburger! I have had some negative experiences with Whatburger before, but not on a consistent basis. This store, however, is different. I have had many negative experiences here over the years. It seems that lately there have been many more. I have asked several of my friends who also love Whataburger and they say the same thing about this store.

The only thing that I expect from this is that the employees of the store to be reminded that Whataburger has a huge fan base and we are going to eat our Whataburgers whenever and wherever we can. But, we want the same great experience that we get at other Whataburgers at this store (#116). The BEST store in the area is at [Whataburger 2500 Lakeview Pkwy, Rowlett, TX]. I don't see why Store #116 can't be the same? With training in customer service and proper food prep, #116 can be the best in the area and draw fans from all over too!

Sincerely,

Whataburger burger and fries

I alway order fresh in whatever O order. mY WHATABURGER WAS luke warm.
Fries luck warm As everyone knows fresh fries burn your mouth. I did get my WHATABURGER free if I ordered med drink and medium fries.

I know kids love and need to work, as that was me when I was younger, but these days kids just dont care. Please talk to this location the younger need more training and should respect their customers

The napkin thing is in most of the fast foods.

Whataburger customer service

On the day of 6/20/19 around 5:30, my family and I entered the whataburger at 7755 Normandy blvd in Jacksonville Florida.
We were not greeted, workers didn't even look our way as they only focused on the drive thru.
After about 10 minutes of being completely ignored, we left.
The orange park whataburger at 289 Blanding is out of our way, but tends to treat us far better.
Please help the workers at the Normandy whataburger, it pains us to see the restaurant that had us fall in love with your brand beginning to tarnish it.

Whataburger wrong order again

June 19, 2019 approx 6:30 pm.
I went to the Whataburger at Forest and Webbs Chapel in Dallas, where I have gone for the last 35 years. I used the drive thru to order a meal with unsweet ice tea. I got the meal and drove off. Traffic was worse than usual so, instead of driving all the way home, I decided to start eating. I had been gone about 10 minutes before I took my first drink of Tea and it was sweet. after I had specifically said unsweet. I turned around and sat in traffic another 10 minutes, and the drive thru line was so long, I decided to park and go in. There at the entrance was a filthy dirty homeless person, who was either drunk or asleep, but the worst was the fact that he had laid on the concrete and urinated. I went in and told Andrew, who claimed to be a manager, what had happened. He handed me a glass and said I could get my own. I said that wasn't good enough, I should at least get the meal comped, after driving back. He left me standing there while he went to the back. He then said that he didn't know what to do, I said I should have at least a meal since this isn't the first time, but it was the first time I had gone back. He then left again and after another 10 min. I finally left. I can't understand why he is a manager. He didn't look like one or act like one. It is now the principal of the issue. If Whataburger can not hire competent people to run the drive thru or minimally read the screen to get the whole order correct, I think a meal should be offered and if need be, split the cost with the people working that shift. I still expect more than me getting my own ice tea for the trouble of going back. My meal was ruined. I really find it hard to believe Andrew is a manager, and if he is, that is the problem with that Whataburger. The meal was a patty melt, with an unsweet ice tea. Again, it's the only Whataburger in my neighborhood, and I certainly have had many wrong orders through the year, and done nothing about, but I did expect something more for the inconvenience this time, not to mention the complete incompetence of a "so called manager", that could not even address the issue without going to the back multiple times or having a complete conversation. I can't think of any food establishment, that would not have been more than happy to comp a future meal to keep a customer happy and returning. Thank you, Dian

Whataburger jr. burger

Date: 06/18/2019
Time: 07:36:36
Location: 808 Highway 59S Cleveland, TX 77327
Order#: 530500

Hello,
I am not writing this compliant to have anyone in trouble. I'm writing this in general customer service due to the fact that everyone there works as a team I assume. Waited 15 min drive thru. Got to window, food incorrect. Simple burger, literally a Jr. Burger with ketchup, mustard and pickles. Added a cup of water since I no longer drink sodas. 20 min later, received my burger. Could not eat it due to the bread being drenched in looks appeared to be water? Burger meant was cold. No mustard! I don't understand how something so simple could be so complicated. Had people honking behind me, yelling at me. I finally get back into the highway. The person behind me in whataburger line, caught up to be and almost clipped my car. All in all, I went to work hungry and ended up 10 minutes late. All of that harassment, embarrassment and hunger and I still paid $2.98.00 out of my pocket. Not to mention, late to work meaning later to my meeting. Very dissatisfied. Photos attached.

Whataburger work environment

The store is ran by manager that is childish and plays favoritism. Nika Brown is the worst manager I've ever had. She picks and chooses who gets wrote up for the same offense. She's all me to use expired meat and bread. The store only runs correctly when Charles comes by. A team member named Shay has a horrible attitude with team members. She's bullies people eats on the line and steals food but never gets written up. She's spends a fair amount of time in the office gossiping with niqa. Other team member think they're in a relationship. No wonder their always short of people and their quiting for these above reason, but most are scared to lose their jobs. Honestly she has no control over her mangers or the store. She sees most things and turns her head until Charles pops up. The few team members left feel this way and are ready to walk out. I'm not expecting anything to happen cause it's been like this for awhile seemingly.

Whataburger breakfast

When will Whataburger move into the 20th century, never mind the 21st. I'm ready for breakfast to be served 24hrs. When I go in the morning before 11, I am served after 11. When I go 11pm, I am served after 11. I went in 5 mins before 11pm, was told they do not serve before 11. The line was at least 15 mins long. I get out of line and wait until 11, go back, place my order, it takes 15 mins to get the food. This makes no sense to me that they could not take my order at 5 mins til 11 so I could get it 10 mins after. I love the BOBs, I have been a loyal customer for 40 years, but I am ready to find a competitor.

Whataburger the drive through employee

I ordered through the drive-through and the employee that was working was very rude. Rude as if she did not want us to take time for our order and rushed us while we was trying to tell us her order. I really know for a fact being that I own a dental practice that she should not be allowed to do any customer service .

Whataburger wrong order

My pregnant wife goes out to get food for us because my 10mo old baby is sleeping on me. She gets back after 30-45 minutes. She ordered me a #2 like I always get. The burger is cold, it has 1 patty instead of 2 and to top it all off the fries are the bottom of the barrel dregs that should have been thrown away. Having been a manager in fast food myself, I know exactly how long certain items are good for before you throw out the old product. This is outrageously unacceptable! I have to nuke my food because it's cold, on top of being wrong! Honestly I should not have had to pay for this at all. But I did, it is over with. I expect a member of management to get in contact with me about this. I am a very upset customer.

General Manager: Lauren Bunch
Location: 1134 Pat Booker Rd. Universal City, TX 78148
Order: 564935

Whataburger whataburger

This Whataburger is the worst one ever. We waited in the drive thru line 28 mins. There where several cars behind me so mad they left. A lady went inside to collect her money. All the manger said was ask for me next time you come and I'll give you a meal. Are you serious? What he needs to do is know how to manage! They need major help! This is the Whataburger off Broadhead St. Waxahachie TX! Will never go back there again! Also no napkins, ketchup anything I asked for.

Whataburger everything

Store 838
order 218871
5/31 9:02am

We ordered 1 cheeseburger and a grilled chicken patty ( not the sandwich, just the patty). It took 18 minutes to get our food then the cheeseburger didnt have cheese on it. We sent it back and the guy in a kakhi shirt yelled across the dining area to (alyssa) waitress "it doesnt have cheese they can pay". I politely told Alyssa it was a cheeseburger it comes with cheese and she took it back. Alyssa was the only one who was nice and professional. The jerk in kakhi shirt needs to go he yelled at multiple employees and there was not a rush at this time it was uncalled for. As we were leaving another employee ( heavy set black lady with red dreds) had her hand down the back of her pants in her butt while standing at the register. We will never return to Friendswood tx whataburger

Whataburger product and service

The past few times I have gone to whataburger was absolutely terrible! They've gotten my order wrong countless times! I went inside once and the place was an absolute disaster! The place was dirty and wasn't stocked they were out of the teas. It's like they just don't care. The workers are rude. They were always out of condiments and sodas. Will not be going back.

Whataburger coffee

I was there this morning .. I have a receipt if you need it, , the expressway in Harlingen by expressway location next to a pawn shop .. the girl at the window gave me the two coffees I ordered but she forgot which was decaf and which was regular ... she wanted me to take the kids off because apparently she " can tell by looking " I told her to forget it and she didn't even offer to change out the coffees just stood there all unsure of herself .. my husband can't have regular coffee beachside of a heart condition and this girl did not understand or care .. it was a very frustrating morning and did not get fixed .. I threw them both and just made it at home .. I usually looov your stores especially that it's my favorite place to get coffee ( Starbucks is overrated ) but come on even getting coffee wrong was so frustrating

Whataburger fish sandwich

I went to Whataburger Boca Chica Brownsville TX. And ordered a fish combo to dine in. I work the night shift so I went around 5:30am. There was nobody else at the store so my meal was made to order. As soon as I bit into the sandwich I burnt my mouth and spit the sandwich out. The scorching hot oil burned the inside of my mouth. 2 days later and I still have sores and trouble eating. I had no idea it was going to be so hot. You need to put some sort of warning because that is ridiculous hot or let the fish cool a bit before serving it to customer.

Whataburger biscuit & gravy

Store #511 May 25, 2019 7:37.35 AM Drive Thru Order # 307976
Ordered biscuit and gravy, among other items. Got to work - gravy only, no biscuit. Surely this cannot happen by accident. This must have been very funny to the person filling the order. Called Manager (think Jesus, not sure because of language barrier) Polite, but obviously not trained to manage. Didn't ask for order #, time, drive thru or in store.
I stop at Whataburger almost every morning on the way to work. I am going to do something different going forward. I will not be returning to that store

Most likely an accident. Stop pretending you were a loyal customer if you refuse to return after one small MISTAKE.

Store #832 With no one in front of us we waited for over twenty minutes for two jr cheeseburgers which would have been fine had the food been fresh. The cheese wasn't melted and the fries had been fried and just re fried way too many time. They were so burnt and dry we couldn't even eat them. Have had this problem at this location before and will not be returning

Whataburger product/service complaints

I visited the Whataburger in Lytle Texas Friday which is my favorite burger place & it was extremely busy. Which I understand being it's a Friday. Which isn't my complain. There was no place to sit what so ever so we took our food to go. Once we arrived home we started eating our food and that's when we realized when we bite into them that my husband's buffalo ranch chicken burger had so much ranch it squirted on his shirt, he had to scrap some off of it because it was just falling on his shirt when he would bite it and when I bite my double meat cheeseburger it had so much mustard that the bread tore apart from it getting soggy from over kill of mustard. I feel since it was so busy the person preparing our food was just rushing to get the food out and didn't realized it was just so much of it. We love our Whataburger but they were just so so messy & not as enjoyable as it always is! Thanks, sincerely Norma

Went to Whataburger Friday and it was so busy that they had no seats available so we had to take our food to go. It was so busy that who ever prepared our food didn’t do a good job! My husbands buffalo ranch chicken sandwich had so much dressing on it every time he bite it some would squirt out on to his shirt and my double meat cheeseburger had so much mustard that my bun was so soggy and tore apart. Making it such a messy meal. Never experienced such an off day like that! They still need to take there time when preparing our food even though it’s that busy or it’s not going to be it’s usual delicious dining out experience!
