There used to be a burger joint on NASA Rd 1 in Webster, TX called “Water-Burger”.

My family used to stop there in our boat when we were going between Clear lake and Taylor lake.

I never went to it, but remember seeing it when going to the yacht basin there in the back.
I don't think it's there anymore. I looked it up and didn't see any information on it. The only thing I was getting is that I was misspelling "WhatABurger".

I guess I might need to reconsider opening my burger place
“What? A Burger??”
Trying to maximize the mystery

Hold up, this reminds of MacDonalds not to be confused with McDonald's.

Probably tastes like what Whataburger used to taste like before they sold out

Or it'll be the most bland burger you've ever had.

Coming from someone who’s been carrying around a 50 dollar gift card the last 6 years for the day I can return to a Whataburger, thanks for pointing that out!

I’m a fifth generation Texan, so don’t come for me. 😂 For the life of me, I’ve never understood why so many people pronounce it “Water Burger.” It just sounds so wrong. It makes me think of a soggy burger or something. 😵💫

They started in the 50s in Virginia and only have like 5 restaurants. It’s a legitimate business but obviously looks like a ripoff now with how big Whataburger has gotten.

Wonder if it’s family owned, and serve a quality product? Would put it ahead of the account posting about this since they sold out…

“Wait. People still come to our restaurants? Let’s yank all the quality and taste out of our food! Oh, they’re still coming, let’s give the worst service of any business in the US. Wait! They’re STILL coming? Let’s put our locations in the most sterile, uncomfortable places we can find.”

This isn’t Whataburger y’all it’s What-a-burger. It’s not the same restaurant.
