With thousands of students, faculty, and visitors passing daily, this is a golden opportunity to own a piece of local history in a thriving college town.

Affectionately known as “Whatta-Bob,” founder Bob Feltner never met a stranger. With his wife Juanita by his side—who could remember every customer’s burger order—they built a business rooted in friendship, hard work, and community. In 1967, Bob sat in a lawn chair across the street, counting cars and writing his plan. That Thanksgiving, Feltner’s WhattaBurger opened its doors.

Bob rented the house next door so his family could be close during construction. An intercom connected the restaurant to the house, summoning his children—John, Missy, and Pam—to help, rollers in their hair or not. The business expanded in 1971, always prioritizing cleanliness and customer comfort.

Fresh, made-to-order burgers remain the heart of WhattaBurger, with unique toppings like eggs, horseradish, and hot sauce. After Bob’s passing in 1997, his daughter Missy Ellis and her husband Randy Ellis carried on his dream. The restaurant continues to support “Everything Russellville,” giving back to the community that helped it thrive.

Whether you're an investor, restaurateur, or developer, this is your chance to own one of the most recognizable properties in Russellville. Opportunities like this don’t come often.
