This Arkansas Eatery Hasn T Changed Its Burger Recipe Since 1967

“If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” That seems to be the mantra at Feltner’s Whatta-Burger, which has been using the same recipe to whip up its famous burgers since 1967! And not surprisingly, the tried-and-true burgers continue to satisfy diners today, just as they have for decades.

Between its family-friendly setting and fresh, delicious food, Feltner’s Whatta-Burger is one of the top places to dine in Russellville.

And while the restaurant itself has undergone a makeover, not much else has changed. For instance, Feltner’s Whatta-Burger is – and always has been – a family-run establishment.
