Okay for years now, I have been subjected to endless options of the rabid fan base of this chain. Many are seemingly willing to fight to death about how good this place is. We are talking generational feuds over lets face it fast food. In and Out vs. Whataburger? It is not even close and at best this was Meh....
Newish location in TN, that was agreeable close to the freeway as I was in a moving truck. Lots of parking. The employees were on point and the place and its bathrooms were clean. That alone kept this from being one star
The food on the other hand was simply not up snuff and a better comparison would be McDonald's or the King.
Bacon and Cheese Whataburger: Oy vey where to start. The bun was at best there to just provide carbs. It had an odd texture and fell apart pretty quick. The bacon was okay and the patty was at best average. The tomato and lettuce were okay, but the pickles were at best mushy
Onion Rings: They were fried okay but the onions appeared to be the same kind of mush burger king puts forth
Spicy Ketchup was good, but the pepper sauce was at best bland.
So what exactly am I missing here? This place fell well short of the hype and based on my experience its JAFB or just another fast food burger.
