Whataburger Reveals New Menu Design, Under 550 Calories Offerings

Whataburger is unveiling a new look for its menu that will go into effect Monday, July 2 at 3 p.m. to make room for new items alongside all its same customer favorites. A 550 Calories or Less menu with a selection of lower-calorie items will also be featured as part of Whataburger’s new menu design.

New Menu Design

Beginning Monday, July 2 at 3 p.m. customers will notice their “usual” may not be located where it usually is on the menu board. Whataburger’s menu will be rearranged and simplified in categories for Burgers, Chicken and Breakfast to accommodate new menu items, but will still include the favorites customers have come to know and love, including the All-Time Favorites.

“We think our customers will be extremely pleased with the new menu items we’ve added, and we redesigned our menu boards to accommodate these additions,” said Whataburger Group Director of Marketing and Innovation Rich Scheffler. “The new menu is easier to navigate and provides more variety for our customers.”

Whataburger will introduce two salads as part of the new menu: an Apple & Cranberry Chicken Salad made with romaine lettuce, dried cranberries, fresh apples and shredded cheddar cheese, topped with grilled chicken or a Whatachick’n Filet, and a classic Garden Salad. Adding to its lineup of salad dressings, the restaurant will begin offering Low-Fat Honey Pepper Vinaigrette and Low-Fat Herb Vinaigrette to complement its new salads.

The Grilled Chicken Melt – a grilled chicken sandwich topped with grilled onions, poblano and red bell peppers, and Monterey Jack cheese – will also be added to Whataburger’s menu, and a Grilled Cheese on Texas Toast will be available as a kid’s meal option.
