Of course, the centerpiece of Whataburger’s menu is the burger section, and this doesn’t disappoint. There are 8 main burgers on the Whataburger menu, ranging from the original Whataburger, typically from under $8.00, to more embellished burgers, such as the Bacon & Cheese Whataburger, which are a little more expensive.
The original Whataburger is still as popular as it ever was. Like all burgers at Whataburger, it is made with “100% pure, never-frozen beef” and served on a sizable, toasted bun. The bacon & cheese Whataburger comes with 100% beef patties that are layered with the crispest smoky bacon, grilled onions, blue cheese, American cheese, Peppercorn Ranch sauce, and freshly chopped tomato slices and lettuce. All of this is loaded on a toasted five-inch bun.
The Chili Cheese Burger is currently available at Whataburger, too, and while this one is a little more expensive, the flavor is incredible. It boasts the two usual fresh beef patties with a couple of slices of American cheese, crunchy corn chips, Whataburger’s signature beef chili, tangy mustard, and onions packed inside a toasted bun.
Whataburger also offers a great selection of chicken-based menu items alongside the chain’s beef burgers. The Whatachick’n Sandwich is very popular, costing under $10.00. This is a new take on the Homestyle favorite with Whataburger’s new premium chicken filet, sliced tomatoes, Savory WhataSauce, and some green leaf lettuce, all served upon a wheat bun. This is possibly the best sandwich the chain does at the moment!
The Grilled Chicken Sandwich is the slightly healthier version, and it costs just a little extra. This burger supplies you with a healthy dose of protein and iron to fuel you for anything coming your way! If you still feel a little peckish after, you can order the Whatachick’n Strips.
For only a few dollars, you will enjoy three tender, juicy breaded chicken breast strips that are served with your choice of dipping sauces, such as Cream Gravy, Fat-free Ranch, Ranch, Creamy Pepper, Jalapeño Ranch, Honey Mustard, Honey BBQ, and Buffalo Sauce. This is also served with a side of Whataburger’s famous Texas toast.
Whataburger also has a small Kids Menu, which features the ‘Justaburger’ for under $5.00, with mustard, onions, and pickles. Simple but effective! A Whataburger J comes with two pieces of Whatachick’n Strips instead of the standard 3 is also available, currently for $4.79, and the classic Grilled Cheese is available for under $4.00 in most states. Since two out of three of these Kids Menu items are smaller than the regular menu items, they’re also cheaper.
Whataburger’s Breakfast menu is known for being extensive and packed with delicious items. Some of our favorites include the Breakfast Platter for under $7.00, which includes scrambled eggs and hash browns, sausage, bacon, a biscuit, gravy, and cheese. There’s also the Bacon Breakfast Bowl for under $8.00, which you can get as part of a meal including hash brown sticks. For a small and sweet breakfast alternative, you could opt for the simple Cinnamon Roll or the Biscuit with Sausage for around $2.00 or so.
A few salads are available on the Whataburger menu, including the Apple & Cranberry Chicken Salad, currently available for $8.19. This is a great option if you want to boost protein levels in your diet as it is made with a host of healthy ingredients, such as cranberries, Apple slices, shredded carrots, and cheddar cheese atop a bed of lettuce.
There is also the new Cobb Salad, currently for $8.59, consisting of warm, diced Grilled Chicken, a chicken filet (Whatachick’n or Spicy), with a topping of shredded carrots, crispy strips of bacon cut up, shredded cheddar cheese, grape tomatoes, and hard-boiled egg sliced up, on a bed of Red Roma lettuce blend.
Sides include French Fries, for around $2.39, Onion Rings, currently for $2.89, and Apple Slices, only $1.59 at the moment. When you order a burger from Whataburger, it comes with a side of fries and ice for your choice of drink, so you can get a standard-sized meal or a very affordable price.
From hot apple or lemon pie for under a dollar to 6 pieces of cinnamon roll for around $10.00, you can complete your dining experience with some delicious desserts and snacks at Whataburger. If you want something small, the chocolate chunk cookie for around a dollar is another good option, as are the fruit chews, which we’re sure the kids will love!
You’ll want to wash down all that tasty food with a refreshing beverage, too. Soft drinks and tea are available from only $1.29, as well as coffee, albeit, a little more expensive. There are also various shakes, including chocolate, strawberry, vanilla favors, currently starting from $2.34.
While some of the items on Whataburger’s menu certainly aren’t diet-friendly, there are plenty of healthy options to choose from.
For example, the Triple Meat Whataburger, which comes with medium french fries, contains a massive 1885 calories. The Sweet & Spicy Bacon Burger, also with fries included, is even more calorific, at 1905 calories. You’d need to run at a speed of approximately 7 and a half miles per hour for 2.5 hours straight if you wanted to burn off this menu item.
If you’re looking for something a little healthier, we recommend the Apple & Cranberry Chicken Salad, which is only 385 calories, or the Garden Salad, which is just 290 calories. If salad is not your thing, the ‘Lighter & Smaller’ menu has items like the Grilled Cheese (510 calories) or the Egg Sandwich (310 calories).
If you’re vegetarian, the egg and cheese-based menu items will be perfect for you, and there are also some options suitable for vegans, including the garden salad (just order without chicken or cheese), the fries, the hash browns, and the apple slices. You can ask for certain sandwiches to be made on one of the vegan-friendly bread options with vegan ingredients such as avocado, lettuce or tomato. While this isn’t something that is listed on the menu, if you explain that you have dietary requirements, the staff will accommodate your request.
Whataburger is also able to cater to gluten-free customers. You could ask for any burger without the bun since there are no gluten-free bread options, but there are plenty of other gluten-free items on the menu, including the Hash Brown Sticks, Shakes, Chocolate Milk, Apple and Cranberry Salad, Garden Salad, and French Fries.
However, if you have a severe allergy to gluten, please ask the restaurant about what steps they take to prevent cross-contamination since this is, unfortunately, always a possibility. Similarly, if you’re vegan or vegetarian, check whether plant-based items are cooked on a separate grill.
