Far East Siders rejoice! Whataburger will be opening a new Socorro location.

The struggle of getting to Whataburger from the Far East Side and the Lower Valley just got a whole lot easier. Socorro Mayor Jesus Ruiz announced the return of Whataburger to the area, at its new location at Rio Vista Road and Alameda Avenue near Socorro High School.

I know Fernie and I are excited about this grand opening. Fernie even wants to be the #Celebrity for the ribbon cutting ceremony. I am just excited that I don't have to drive that far out from Narnia to satisfy those midnight Whataburger cravings.

The grand opening will happen on Monday, December 15th at 11 a.m.
