There is no Whataburger in California, Illinois or New York in the directory we read, and none in most of the Northeast, Midwest and West Coast. Nevada has a single store on the Las Vegas Strip. See Whataburger in California, Chicago or New York and Whataburger in Las Vegas.
How many are open 24 hours
Of the stores whose hours we read, 1,129 list a 24-hour drive-thru. Hours by service and state are on Whataburger hours.
East to west
The easternmost Whataburgers in the directory are in North Carolina, around Raleigh (Garner and Wake Forest). The westernmost is the single store on the Las Vegas Strip; after that, the farthest west are in the Phoenix area of Arizona, in Surprise and Goodyear.
That spread, from the Atlantic side of the Carolinas to the Nevada desert, is the widest Whataburger has ever been, but the chain is still mostly a Southern and Southwestern one.
Store numbers
Every Whataburger has a store number, shown on its directory page (for example, Store #608 in Dallas, where we check burger prices). Numbers in the directory run from #2 up to #1377, so the number is a label for the store, not a count of how many there are.
If you ever need to tell customer service which store you visited, the store number on your receipt is the quickest way.
Big cities with the most stores
Outside Texas, the cities with the most Whataburgers are Phoenix, Arizona (10), Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (10), Jacksonville, Florida (9), Pensacola, Florida (9), Albuquerque, New Mexico (9). In Texas, Austin (20), Tyler (15), Laredo (12), Katy (9) round out the top ten cities.
Per-state store counts and 24-hour counts are in the table at the top of this page.
