    We have always liked Cook Out! We love the hamburgers and shakes (for the price and convenience). Today we were traveling in the Pooler area and decided to get lunch. I ordered the BBQ with coleslaw and onion rings. Stupid me; I just assumed it was a BBQ hamburger but it actually BBQ chopped pork sandwich. I almost took it back but decided to keep it and try it. It was just ok. I really wish the menu would specify " BBQ sandwich" and not directly under the hamburger ordering section. Some places they do have BBQ hamburgers where they put the special BBQ sauce on it. I thought this was going to be that type of burger..... oh well... The coleslaw was really good and had great flavor! The onion rings were just ok. My wife ordered the corndog meal with onion rings. She said the corndogs were good and crunchy but didn't like the flavor. We also ordered two milkshakes; banana pudding milkshake and a banana blueberry milkshake. Both shakes were good as usual! The staff were friendly. We didn't have to wait very long on our order. Everything seemed cleaned and organized. We still recommend Cook Out!

    Stopped in on our way back to Florida. My wife always talked about this place for any state north of Florida. Finally I got to try it. Stopped in a little after opening with the wife and kids. First off the store was very clean (as expected at opening). Secondly I was very surprised at the resonable prices. From what I can tell it's like a mix between a sit down restaurant and fast food. A perfect blend. I'd say the fries tasted fresh and house made! The burger I had was pretty good. It was a double patty but they kind of seemed on the smaller side. Yet the flavor was still there! If I pass one again I'll definitely try some other menu items! Pics below :)

    This restaurant is called cookout and it's very delicious and they makes great food and milkshakes

    This place makes great food and great milkshakes and I recommend this place to anyone that comes to Georgia and needs to find a great place to eat and this is the place and it's ain't very expensive

    Perfectly packaged.

    The drive thru is fast!!! Super fast and the employees are very efficient. Our food was hot and tasted amazing. This is my third visit and I think the best part will always be the shakes. Today I had the peanut butter fudge and it didn't disappoint. We will continue to order here since we not only love the food but the service is great.

    Ok so I finally got fed up enough that I'm posting a review. Cookout has been an awesome restaurant in the past for me. I loved the one in Charleston, SC. However, this cookout has been horrible. I've had constant problems when I go to get milkshakes where they just hand me vanilla milkshakes instead of the milkshakes that I ordered. It has happened multiple times and even when you go in to get it fixed, they give you attitude and just make the same vanilla milkshakes until you demand a refund. In general I didn't have an issue with their food until lately. On June 19th, for example, I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich with extra pickles, cajun fries, and the cheesy jalapeño fries. I got the order and the chicken sandwich didn't have extra pickles. The cheesy jalapeño fries had absolutely no jalapeño (they are partially devoured in the pic cause I was hangry). The cajun fries had no cajun seasoning. I also (if you look at the receipt) got charged for a water that I never asked for and never received. I'm posting this review because I'm tired of management ignoring these easy to fix issues. I'm probably not gonna be eating at this cookout from now on.

    I think the pictures speak for themselves...management has been pinching pennies on portions for several months & it gets worse every time I visit. If you like getting what you paid for, or even just halfway decent food at this point, don't visit the Cook Out on Pooler Parkway.

    The sad amount of ketchup and mustard my daughter got on her hot dog

    We're in Georgia for a few weeks and have been to this cook out location multiple times. The first time we ordered inside. The service was good, the lobby was mostly clean and the food was affordable and as good as I remembered from years ago. Every time since we've gone through the drive thru. This is where customer service goes to die. If you want to be greeted with impatience and attitude then this is the spot. And your order will be wrong in some way every time. The first time in the drive thru the person was actually really friendly and funny, but the drinks were completely wrong and the food was sad. My double cheeseburger had two pieces of meat so small that even side by side they didn't cover the bun and my fries were barely a single serving much less double. We hoped it was a fluke and came back a few days later. The person rushed us and was incredibly rude. We ordered two huge teas. At the window she gave us one huge and one large. I reminded her that we ordered two huge teas. After some back and forth about what we wanted versus what we got we drove away with a large and huge because she refused to correct it even if I paid the difference for the size I wanted. Today we gave it one last chance. Yet another incredibly rude and rushed person when ordering and they literally got everything wrong. Not a single thing was right. And we were treated like idiots for sending back the two teas so we could get them with no ice as ordered. We won't be back. Cook out used to be the best and most affordable burger place here but now it's just the place to go if you want to be treated badly and not get anything you want.

And told her that she did a great job after she took my order. It was wonderful to see such great care and interactions between manager and staff. I wish more people treated their staff with the care I saw with the way she was speaking and helping her two staff members. My food was correct and delicious as always. Five Guys food is delicious! The floor was a little sticky. But they were busy preparing food and a rush of people came in after us. The tables and chairs were all clean. So was the soda, and area with ketchup and extras. There are restrooms inside the restaurant.
