KNOXVILLE - Just in time for the UT football season, Whataburger is coming to Knoxville. The restaurant brings fresh, customized burgers, Fancy and Spicy Ketchup, and orange-and-white-striped fun. This is the first Whataburger location for the Knoxville area.

The restaurant at 1830 Cumberland Ave. Suite 105 pays respect to Whataburger’s storied history while looking to the future with a forward-thinking design. It features interior digital menu boards, a spacious dining room, and a state-of-the-art kitchen to serve guests best. Knoxville is splashed across the wall, and University of Tennessee sports memorabilia, like jerseys and equipment, are prominently displayed.

Operating Partner Justin San Miguel will lead the Whataburger team of 60 local employees, whom it calls Team Members.
