What Is Inside a Whataburger Taquito?
All Whataburger taquitos use a soft flour tortilla filled with scrambled eggs and American cheese as the base. From there, each variety adds a different protein or filling:
- Taquito with Cheese — Just egg and cheese. The simplest, lightest option.
- Potato, Egg & Cheese — Adds seasoned potato pieces for a heartier, more filling option.
- Sausage, Egg & Cheese — Spiced breakfast sausage, the most savory of the options.
- Bacon, Egg & Cheese — Crispy bacon strips, slightly lighter than sausage in calories.
Which Whataburger Taquito Is the Best?
The Bacon, Egg & Cheese Taquito is the most popular by sales. The bacon adds a smoky crunch that balances the soft egg and cheese. For pure heartiness, the Sausage, Egg & Cheese is the most filling. The Potato, Egg & Cheese is an underrated choice — the potatoes add substance and a slightly crispy texture that makes each bite more interesting.
Whataburger Taquito vs. McDonald's Breakfast Burrito
Both are portable breakfast wraps, but Whataburger's taquito uses a thinner flour tortilla in the authentic Tex-Mex style, while McDonald's uses a thicker flour wrap. Whataburger's filling quality is generally considered superior — the eggs are fluffier and the cheese melts more completely. For Tex-Mex authenticity and flavor, Whataburger wins.
Are Whataburger Taquitos Available All Day?
No — taquitos are only available during the breakfast window: 11 PM to 11 AM. They are one of the most popular late-night and early-morning items because they are fast to prepare, portable, and affordable. If you want a breakfast taquito after 11 AM, you will need to wait until the next breakfast window at 11 PM. See our Breakfast Hours Guide.
How to Customize Whataburger Taquitos
- Add jalapeños — Fresh jalapeños inside a taquito is a classic Tex-Mex upgrade.
- Ask for salsa on the side — Request salsa verde or pico de gallo for dipping.
- Extra cheese — For maximum melt and richness.
