W SW Loop 323
Tyler, TX
The Whataburger on W. Gentry Parkway had been heavily remodeled. However, the "W" was still on the A-frame. There were plans to move to a new location at the end of 2018. By 2022, this building was gone.

The Whataburger on W SW Loop 323 had also been heavily remodeled. It closed in 2021 and was painted beige. In 2023, it was housing Ichiban Ramen. [map]

There is a third Whataburger in Tyler which is more modern and does not have an A-frame.

former Whataburger
Waco, TX
This former Whataburger was built in 1969. It was housing Ronn's Cigarettes by 2007. The building had been vacant since around 2017. By 2020, the building had been demolished and only the canopy was left. In 2022, a new building was built behind it and began housing the Laundry Room. The canopy is still there. [map]

I believe the Whataburger design shown below is from the 1970s. I only know of locations in Arizona and California.

Whataburger
Phoenix, AZ

Whataburger
Scottsdale, AZ		 former Whataburger
Oxnard, CA
This Whataburger in Phoenix is the same design as this building which I believe was in Glendale, AZ originally. [map]

This Whataburger in Scottsdale has a slightly steeper roof. It was probably built around the same time as the Phoenix location. [map]

This Whataburger in Oxnard was built using the same design as the ones in Arizona. Whataburger built some locations in California in the late 1970s but ceased operating there by 1987. This location was later renamed Lot-A-Burger. There's a Blake's Lotaburger New Mexico-based chain. However, I don't believe Blake's ever had locations in California. Blake's is famous for its green chile hamburgers and this Oxnard location is remembered for its jalapeno burgers. So, it's possible that it might have copied the name and menu a bit. This restaurant is now named A-Burger. [map]

I believe that the Whataburger design shown below is from the 1960s or early 1970s. I believe these were only built in Florida.
