(Longview, Texas) - Whataburger is good any time of the day. Breakfast Bowl in the morning, Whatawings for lunch, a Whataburger with cheese and bacon for dinner. There's enough variety to keep your belly happy.

In my younger days, grabbing a burger or some chicken strips after a night with friends was so good. Yeah, there were other options to grab a late night bite, but Whataburger was always the top choice. Which is why it makes sense that a new report shows Whataburger as the top late night choice.

Finding the Best Late Night Fast Food

The website brobible.com set out to find the best late night fast food options in the country. There doesn't appear to be any metrics for this ranking, just the author's personal opinion. Which is fine because, at least for me, I agree with list.

I would have preferred to have some stats to back up how the author got this ranking. Value would have been good. If it's light on the wallet, that would certainly make it good. Maybe convenience of dining inside or just having to go through a drive-thru. No matter, it's a good list.
