Whataburger is a Texas institution: orange-and-white striped A-frame buildings, 24-hour service at most locations, and burgers cooked to order on a larger bun than the national chains use. Its cult following in the South rivals In-N-Out's on the West Coast.
Pricing sits at the value end of fast food, and the chain's overnight breakfast window — running from 11:00 PM to 11:00 AM — is unusually generous. The Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit and the Taquito with Cheese are the two items regulars build a trip around.
