We Visit A Vintage Whataburger! - Mesquite, TX 

Do you go a lot?

@@user-vi4xy1jw7e occasionally . I tend to go to the WB near my workplace but I do stop by this one whenever I can.

I miss Balch Springs Texas,I lived there in the late 70's and through the 80's, do the Wendall's still live there?back in the day there was only about 700 people, now more than 30,000 people, how about the Pliggy Wiggly store and across the street Dairy Queen?,

Yessir, my kids went there too, although I pulled my boys out in 2007 and moved them to Tisinger. They graduated 2009, 2014, and 2015. We used to live on Crest Park back then. Not the Wilkinson section, but the section by city hall.

Rose has been there closer to 25 years. I worked with her in the 90s. Rose is greatness.

Looks great! I grew up in Mesquite and will have to come check it out. It has been many years.

I mean I can understand that. However compared to most other locations, this is one of the oldest and original designed locations remaining.

Not to dim a star, but the inside was remodeled in the 00s. It used to have regular booths along the windows and two rows of 4 tops in the middle.

There was also a elevator back then that went up to the 3rd floor which was used for storage of cups, napkins, and all paper products.

Whataburger started here in The city I live in corpus christi texas

Its the older part of town because it the downside area. 😊

Whataburger is a Texas staple. Founded in Corpus Christi Texas. The family that owned Whataburger sold the majority to a Chicago company a couple years ago. I know they've got it in other states as well but mostly in the south. Jacksonville FL I know for sure & I think there's some in Oklahoma & New Mexico

Kearney not Gross.

This one is at the corner of Kearney and Galloway. The Elliot's hardware store next door was a Minards grocery store.

Most H-E-Bs are in the south part of Texas. The closest one to the DFW area is in Ennis Texas about 45 min south of Dallas. But they are building one in Forney Texas in the next year or so.

@@ryansalmons5279 Thank you! I wonder why they've stayed out of DFW despite their HUGE presence in Houston, Austin, and San Antonio (where H-E-B is such a powerful competitor that even KROGER failed there) because I'm sure the people of DFW would love H-E-B, and H-E-B would love them back!

@@trentpettit6336 as a life long DFW kid & one who has lived in Ennis & gone to H-E-B several times, I KNOW they will. I also heard H-E-B has bought some land in south part of Dallas too

@@ryansalmons5279 Did you know the TOM THUMB chain was bought by RANDALLS (which at the time, was a GREAT Houston chain similar to Tom Thumb) in the early 90's, and that the Tom Thumb logo is based on the Randalls logo? Also, did you know SAFEWAY (which ironically bought Randalls and Tom Thumb in the late 90's, before themselves being bought by Albertsons more recently) had stores under their own name in Dallas (and in many other parts of Texas too) in the 60's and 70's, but left Dallas sometime in the 80's?

Don't want you here anyways fuck off

Unfortunately you're exactly right, I've been here for 38 years.
