As a Southern California girl who loves her cookout, this had to have been the nicest interior of a cookout I've ever seen in all my travels down south! My strawberry cheesecake milkshake was a 10/10, and my Jr Tray was everything I've been waiting on and more! read more

Always have the best shakes anywhere! Quick, fun and filling, consistent service. Prices are still reasonable. read more

The best experience I have ever had ordering at a cookout. They took 4 different orders at once, understood and got it all perfectly. The food was great and the service was even better. read more

For the price, you really can't beat this place especially if you have kids Food quality is OK but better than most fast food type places I've been here several times and service has always been pretty good read more

Byron, the general manager, was taking orders at the window at 11:30'PM. He is such an asset, and he was SO polite and happy. I want to be his friend that's how above and beyond he went. He deserves a raise!! read more

I ordered cookout style hot dog hamburger and barbecue sandwich. Awful food It had me on toilet all day. 1) hotdog was wrinkled and dry the bun was stale and hard as a brick. 2) hamburger meat was hard dry like a piece of burnt wood 2) barbecue sandwich bread was wet soggy and nasty like the whole sandwich fell in a bucket of urine. : read more

If you love going to the DMV, then you will LOVE coming to eat at Cook Out. Our hungry souls detoured here after stopping by another fast food chain which was closed. This was the only place in the vicinity that was open when we arrived and decided to give this local spot a try. PROS - The cook out trays. I got the jr tray where you can mix and match items (a main, 2 sides, and a drink) all for less than $6. Some of the sides are unique like a chicken wrap, chicken nuggets or a quesadilla - They are known for their shakes and have over 35 flavors to choose from. Didn't get to try them but they looked good. Whether they had all the flavors available is another story... - Can't beat the price CONS - The wait is insane where the drive thru line extended out to the main road. There were only 2 employees working the drive thru line for over 20+ cars and I think from the time we entered to the time we exited with our food, it was almost 40 minutes. - Food is very mediocre. My hot dog was stale and burnt. The sides were just ok. Unless you're desperate or have a lot of time to burn, I'd avoid this location. read more

How is it that nobody told me Cook Out has a gazillion milkshake options? Ok. It's more like 40, but still... My hubs read me the list on the way home from visiting family in the hospital. I've been thinking which I'd try first. Fudge banana. Omg. That baby was chock full of fresh banana bits. Super thick and tasty. Yum. And the guy manning the drive through window was super friendly. read more

Staff was slow and indifferent to customers. There were no condiments available. The restaurant was dirty. Avoid this cook out, there are many, many better ones to go to. read more

Joshua told me he was allergic to milk and couldn't make a milkshake. continued to argue with me when I told him he didn't have to drink it lol. Charged me for it anyways read more

This location has gone down hill quickly. It takes 5-10 min per car just to order. 25 min wait today, then left with 5 cars in front of me. One employee in the entire store!!!! Most people only get 1 hr lunch. This is not the spot for FAST food read more

I come here often at least once a week and have had some not great experiences. I've had rude employees, some that just don't listen and some that refuse to work. Today December 3rd at 12 I came and waited for 15 minutes exactly in the drive thru behind one car. That car had been waiting at least 20 minutes for their food. read more

Ordered a bacon cheeseburger, banana shake and seasoned fries. Got home and had a plain hamburger dry af on bread, cheese all over the fries and a pineapple shake. That's really frustrating after a long day at work and a fairly lengthy drive to get there. Why is it so hard to get a one combo order correct. Every single item was wrong. Come on guys. Do better. read more

Ok, can this review just be for its milkshakes? Because that's what I got.....twice. First time having cook out because they don't exist near me, and the wife and I go to get a milkshake. It was life changing. For both of us. I had the caramel fudge and she had the mint Oreo. When we went back two days later we got the exact same thing. If it ain't broke.... So I can't speak for anything else, but the milkshakes were amazing and not expensive. Can't wait to find one in Virginia. read more

The drive thru line took forever (legitimately 30 minutes) - understaffed? The employees inside were not wearing masks. That's just irresponsible and unprofessional. Considering Covid is airborne, you can probably trace a few cases back to here. Would not wait for food from Cookout again. read more

listen, cookout is THE place for you to get drunk food late at night and it's known for not having great service, BUT the price and the food is what keeps you coming back. This particular location gets 1 star Bc EVERY time I go here I wait in line for minimum 30 mins and they are always out of something (quesadillas, sauces, etc). When I went on a sat night past midnight there were high school kids who were getting out of their cars in the drive thru to smoke cigs and drink beer on the lawn and walking up to other cars in line. This was not only so obnoxious and juvenile, but held up the line and didn't help the situation of slow service. read more

Just stopped by cookout tonight and was greeted by excellent service and patient employees. Mario helped us out tonight and he was outstanding, unlike any service we have had at other cookout locations! read more

The worst fast food I've had this year. Heck it's the worst fast food I've eaten since I can remember. It's the cheapskate version of Wendy's. I'm giving them two stars only because the milkshake was worth the stomach space. On the last night of my Airbnb stay in Mount Pleasant there was a kerfuffle with dinner. A cheese malfunction which ruined dinner and had to be trashed. We're talking moldy cheese which could have ruined our travel plans of the following day. So... what to do when you're on vacation and dinner is spoiled? Drink more! Good thing the Cook out was a few blocks from our rental. It was a cheap Uber ride to/from. It was late in Mount Pleasant and nothing is open at 2 am, well except the Cook out. So.. we hit it. Looking at their menu, it's as if they have a wealth of food and want to throw it at you, cheaply. The menu is inexpensive and when ordering a combo instead of giving you one side, they want to give you two. And the second can have a protein included if you wish. ie chicken nuggets, a corndog or insert protein quesadilla. Combination platters are inexpensive in comparison to say Mcdonalds or in fact, Wendy's. The three of us ordered a bonanza of foods. Spicy chicken sandwich platters, a double cheeseburger, some other junk and a couple milkshakes to wash it down. Final verdict? I thought it was all disgusting. I could not finish my chicken sandwich. The meat did not sing of quality and the crispy fried patty was heavily salted. The look of it once unwrapped was not appetizing. The fries were definitely the frozen variety and tasted like they had been reheated from earlier in the day. BLECH! All I could stomach was the milkshake which was utterly divine. I asked my nephew to ask if they could make me a "chocolate mint", instead he ordered me a mint chocolate chip. What's the difference you ask? A half and half rather than all one flavor. My cousin and nephew thought the food was passable. We had spent the late night hours soaking in a hot tub and were feverishly hungry. I had a KIND bar stowed away in my luggage, it did the job the Cook out couldn't. Looking at their website for the first time today I'm realizing that they make fresh never frozen hamburgers! I could have had that instead! Why isn't that advertised on their menu... Arrrggghhh! read more

Took 40 minutes to get food at drive thru, not during peak dinner rush. Burger was burnt to a crisp and room temperature. Fries were soggy, shake was melted. Appears they are severely understaffed. Shouldn't even be open if they cannot serve customers to a reasonable standard. Disappointing compared to other cookout locations I have been to. read more

This was 9 bucks. Could barely hear the cashier in drive thru. Go to canes 1 minute away, better quality and more food. read more

Cook Out - french fries and onion rings in a box - Fast Food Near Me - Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

As far as fast cheap food goes you can't beat this place. For $4.99 you get your choice of burger, chicken sandwich or chicken strips, a drink and 2 sides, some of the side options are corn dog, bacon wrap, quesadilla, fries and onion rings, those are just the ones I remember. The shake options are awesome, we had eggnog, super thick and tasty. The service was fast and friendly. I also like that they have a hand wash station right by the drink machine. All and all you won't be disappointed, the food was good and you just can't beat the price. read more

Not my kind of place. Five of us are there. One liked it. Maybe we ordered the wrong things? I heard the burgers are good. I'll give it another shot. This isn't really barbecue. read more

Took almost an hour and my order is wrong. My ticket shows that they rang it in right, however my sandwich isn't a sandwich without a bun. The drive thru person was rude and barely acknowledged me. Y'all need to do better, especially when mcdonald's does better than y'all read more

Cook Out - a box of food including a hot dog and a donut - Fast Food Near Me - Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

truly the inexplicably most entertaining drive through experience ive ever had and i must share. this was my first time, 'twas late night and i was hungry af. in front of me was one of the DRUNKEST group of girls from tennessee, all could not get through their order without tearing up in laughter (as one does in the drive thru of a cookout at 12 a.m.) and beknownst to us both, a group of DRUNKER frat boys in the car behind me. they start yelling "FATASSES HURRY UP" and start honking their horn, blaring some travis scott garbage at the same time. the girl driving in front starts flipping them off, launching herself halfway out the window screaming "FUKK YOUUUUU" causing the line to back up even longer. this went on for about five minutes. poor guy working the drive thru window barely spoke english, having to deal with a literal DRIVE THRU FIGHT, meanwhile im just there for my nuggies and fries. which by the way, were phenomenal. the service was prompt, the food was hot, and the entertainment was PRICELESS. made me feel like a true south carolinan. hopefully this helps, it was two dudes who helped me out, both super nice and calm during the whole endeavor, a african american gentlemen and a guy who was also speaking spanish in and out. again, GREAT time! read more

Not on brand for Cook Out. The inside of the store is filthy. We stood at the register of the empty restaurant for 10 minutes before anyone acknowledged us. The "sweet tea" is sugar water. The sodas were flat. read more

It's staggering how far $6 can go to buy a meal. My daughter and I ate for less than $13 for BOTH of us! The burger was tasty goodness, hush puppies and cheddar rounds were in their fried-food glory and the tea is very good. Cook Out is one of our favorites for inexpensive quick and tasty fare. read more

Been sitting in line for almost 30 min now. Still haven't gotten our food. This place has gotten ridiculous. I won't be coming back for a long time. Management needs to get this place in order!!! read more

Terrible service. Whoever the man was who was taking my order interrupted me and acted very rude "chad" When we got to the window his manager was right there and didn't care. The burger and the wrap me and my friend received were half ass at best and left us more hungry than we were before and 5 dollars less. Get fucked, you've been served by a member of the Yelp bandits read more

We were trying to get food to bring to our grandmother and by the time we had everything to bring to her, the food was cold. We waited 40 minutes for them to finish making a side of fries and 2 shakes. If you're planning on coming here, the drive through would be your best bet if you want a timely order. read more

Of all crappy restaurants I love cookout because you can get a cheeseburger meal and your side can also be a meal in itself of a corndog or chicken nuggets. What I don't love is when you order a milkshake and they bust the styrofoam cup while they are mixing it. Usually this doesn't matter, usually they throw that bad cup away and start over. Not at this particular cookout. At this cookout they put your broken styrofoam cup and all it's pieces of styrofoam into another cup then you have to play the game of whether or not you are eating a piece of Reese's PB cup or styrofoam. read more

The amount of food was good but the wait time was terrible. Waited 20 min for food then another 20 min for a milk shake. Wasn't busy in their either read more

I've gone to this restaurant two times and order has been messed up both times. I asked to remake and food was cold both times. It's ridiculous that they cannot get the orders right despite the amount of times you tell them on the intercom. read more

Love the charbroiled taste good pricing good customer service needs some improvement but would definitely recommend if your in the area.

It was dark and dingy and not clean. The service was awful some people in our party waited forever for their food while people who came in behind us got their food first. They had to take their receipt up to the front and ask for their food to be made. read more

Y'all gotta open up the restaurant soon because your drive through customer service is so insanely awful. Say in line for an hour just for my whole order to be wrong, eyes rolled when I asked for sauces, and the window slammed in my face before receiving my drinks. Blatantly ignored me while I tried to get her attention to get my drinks, which I never ended up getting, nor my change. read more

I stopped into the drive through last night to grab a date night milk shake. We rolled up to order and the man said "welcome to cookout". We were reading the menu so was not ready to order and he repeated "welcome to cookout". This was all in the span of about 30 seconds, and when we were ready to order I asked "can we place our order now?" And the man hastily replied "I've already asked you twice" in a nasty tone. It was late at night and there were no cars behind us. Such a disappointing experience and way to be treated. Milkshake was fire though read more

I asked for NO MUSTARD due to a serious allergy and no onions... the burger had both mustard and onions on it. I tried calling multiple times and the line continued to ring. Absolutely unacceptable. read more
