Really wasn't a fan of this Cookout. We waited for a very long time and our order was wrong at the end of it. We also ordered cheese fries and they put the utensils in with the fries, so they were covered in cheese too. read more

I can't go home to North Carolina without hitting my favorite fast food joint. I always get the double cheeseburger tray with fries and nuggets. The food is always hot, customer service, extremely quick, and you get the southern hospitality with it. #EatGoodAndBeHappy read more

I have always been impressed with the service at the Roanoke Rapids location, and the Suffolk, VA where you sit down is

Food is good. Service is great they were busy so I'm sure they were just stressed out.

We love Cook Out! When traveling south through the Carolinas on I95 we always get a quick meal here. It's drive through only but it's the only fast food place that has good that actually tastes good. It really does taste like an old fashion backyard cookout. Burgers and chicken sandwiches are great. Portions are not huge but they're fairly priced. Lots of variety to choose from. read more

They FRIKIN didn't stir my friends milk shake and then charged him for a big double tray when he asked for a junior, which friggin sucks, he's tryna save money, put some RESPECT on his name read more

Great value! I like to get the tray with a burger "cookout style" which is with chili and coleslaw slaw, two chicken wraps and a banana + peanut butter milkshake. I'm very happy after all that and only spent $8. It is my go to on road trips in VA and NC. read more

Great food, conveniently located, but the double drive through could mess you up if you don't have a passenger! They sometimes forget some special requests you make, but the sheetz across the street has free condiments. Definitely worth stopping and trying their extensive menu! read more

Cook Out - Fantastic hush puppies and delicious corn dog!! - Fast Food Near Me - Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina

This was our first visit to a Cook Out. We took quite a while figuring out the menu, but the staff was extremely helpful, kind, and patient. Once ordered, our food and drinks were given to us extremely quickly. Everything was fresh, hit, and delicious. We will certainly be back! read more

Reinventing fast food requires a lot of commitment and creativity. The burgers here taste super-fresh and like real made not machine made and pressed. The onion rings and fries were very tasty. Thumbs up on the oreo shake. The most impressive part was the menu...I had to park my car and it took me 15 minutes to figure out what I wanted! read more

WOW! This was amazing. We got the trays, and we couldn't believe how much food it was. Because the price was so low, we thought everything would be really small. But the portions were great. The beef doesn't taste anything like a fast food burger's beef tastes. The chicken wrap was our favorite thing, but everything we ordered was great. Also, I can't stress how good the prices are. For two burgers, a quesadilla, a chicken wrap, two fries, a milkshake, and a "huge tea," it was $13. Amazing. There needs to be a Cook Out open in Maryland! read more

I stopped at McDonald's and saw this place next door and had to try it out given the name. I wasn't overly impressed with the burger, fries, or strawberry shake. They handed it to me in a styrofoam box which was a little strange but ok. I expected the burger to be filled with smokey, grilled flavor but it was just a flavorless burger...not bad but not what I expected. The fries were hot and fresh, but nothing to brag about. The strawberry shake had real strawberries but tasted overly sweet as if maybe too much sweetener was added. The service through the drive-thru was very fast...in and out in no time it seemed. read more

This spot is messing up orders and making the burgers without care I even took my order back just for them to mess it up again Highly not recommended read more

Definitely a great place for fast food that tastes homemade . Whether you are local or passing by on 95, its a great place to stop to pick up a quick bite. The fries are crisp The service is fast The shakes OUT OF THIS WORLD! The hamburgers are freshly made, no fillers (we always get the regular all the way). 1 burger and fries is enough for both of us (yes they are that big). This is a grab and go type place, so plan on that. We will definitely be back. Its one of our favorites read more

Awesome service. We went through the drive-thru with 2 adults and 5 kids. They got our order perfect and everything was labeled to make it easier when handing it out. The service was also very quick and the lady in the drive thru was very kind! Definitely recommend and believe these workers need a raise for how awesome they are doing. read more

Fast food BBQ? Fast food is never good and BBQ is never fast, yet this place is surprisingly good! Apparently this is a chain of restaurants in North Carolina. The location I visited had 2 drive thru lanes on either side of the building and no seating available at all (inside or out). I had the pork BBQ sandwich with hush puppies, fries, and cole slaw. The lunch alone was $3.99 plus the drink. Ridiculously cheap, but the BBQ was ridiculously good. In the genre of fast food, I can definitely recommend this place. I even like the creaminess of the hush puppies. Also I didn't realize at the time of my order, but they offer more than 40 different flavors of milkshakes. I think this worth checking out as well. read more

We were driving from Virginia to Florida when hunger set in. We exited 95 with the intention of grabbing some BK. Cook Out was right across the street. So I yelped it right from the BK parking lot. The reviews were 50/50, but we decided to give it a shot. Try something new. My husband and I both ordered a meal with a milkshake each. The meal comes with TWO sides. We liked that everything came packaged in boxes. The burgers were actually pretty good and better than what we would have had at BK. The milkshakes were pretty large & delicious. We had an Oreo & a Strawberry Cheesecake. YUM! We enjoyed all our food. PLUS, our total came out to just under $13! For the amount of food including milkshakes, it was a bargain! We have paid the same at McD's for one meal with a soda and an extra sandwich! The girl at the window was friendly and our order was correct. The drive thru line moved quickly too. Wish we had a Cook Out here in Miami! read more

What a pleasant change from the usual road trip fast food! We were looking for a change from the norm, and Ralph's was closed. Fortunately, Cook Out was open and more than willing to sell us food. The prices can't be beat, and I was full but not uncomfortable after my grilled chicken sandwich, fries and coke. My brother had a hot dog covered in slaw, which he ate in under a minute with no complaints. The bf had a chicken tender club sandwich, which was also apparently awesome. The fries weren't the absolute best, but the hush puppies rocked. I will definitely drive through here again when I can. read more

Let me say this they have 40 different types of milkshakes that alone says you have to love me lol. Perfect backyard BBQ flavor. I had the double burger done "cook out style" with chili and coleslaw on top. Sounds crazy but goes so perfect together. The onion rings were exactly what onion rings should be. I'm mad I was only visiting and they don't have these in my town. The price was reasonable just hate the line was crazy. This will for sure be a stop every time I'm in town! read more

I stop past on my way home from myrtle beach. The food was pretty good. The burgers had a good Grill flavor. Love the banana shake. read more

Today was the first time I have ever had the Cook Out and I have to say that it was the best drive-thru burger I have ever had! Yummy! Will make sure I include this as a stop when I am in NC. read more

We stopped here on our drive to Raleigh, NC and was pleased with our food. I ordered the burger, fries and caramel chocolate shake that was crazy good. My burger was surprisingly tasteless. My mom ordered two franks that she loved. Next time I will stick with the chicken sandwiches that I usually order. read more

It was good, not great,but good. They just have a drive -thru & a walk up window. No indoor or outdoor seating, which is very strange and not very welcoming. It was a beautiful summer day. I walked over from the hotel I was staying at & had plans to sit there & eat after I got my food, but no where to sit!!! So I walked back to hotel with my order & ate my food sitting on my hotel bed. My sister raved about the place more than once, so I decide to give it a try. No charcoal taste to me. I ordered a double chocolate shake it was a black & white shake very mild taste of chocolate. I like my shakes thick but this shake was more like an ice cream. It wouldn't come thru the straw. I have had better burgers. I would order here again but just average taste. read more

I normally never write poor reviews. Worst cookout experience I have ever had. Order was missing multiple items. Fries and burgers were completely soggy... I'm talking absolutely disgusting. Gave zero straws for my watered down and flat Cheerwine. Oh and the lady at the drive thru got in such an uproar she broke my credit card. I came here with someone for there first time after ranting and raving how great. After this experience stated we will never return. read more

Arrogant ass help! Hasn't changed since we last came here Five years ago. Thank goodness we weren't ordering for ourselves.

Food was IGHT But service was very rushing and very disrespectful. DIDNT SUPPORT KETCHUP MUSTARD ECT, had to pull over to a gas station just to get condiments. Also ordered a milkshake but didn't receive the correct one. I GIVING THE PLACE A 3 because all around it did it's job,WHICH was to get me full to continue my traveling. I would recommend going but be ready to get disrespectful. I read more

Good quick burgers. Nice charcoal taste. Milkshakes are the best thing on the menu. Although the chocolate shake tasted more like vanilla

Looking for a place to eat after a long drive on the 95, we stopped to fill up the tank and in the area we spotted the brightly lit sign that read burgers and BBQ. We didn't hesitate to stop in since this was the only spot open at the time and all of us were starving. A southern style fast food joint that you can only find in the south? ..We just knew it had to be good. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to try any of the burgers or BBQ, but the others that were with me did enjoy the cajun chicken burger, BBQ plate, and a char grilled hot dog. They mentioned everything tasted good and definitely hit the spot. As for me, I had the hush puppies which were dense, bland, and boring.. I definitely expected it to be better than what it was. The fries were just what it was.. cut thick, cooked crisp, and seasoned well. Prices on the menu were really cheap, but then again it seems like the cost food in the southern states is cheap and affordable in general. read more

Cook Out - Fast Food Near Me - Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina

Based on what i got which was the BBQ plate it was terrible, looks like cat food fries were very soggy and the hush puppies and cole slaw were just ok. I gave an extra star because the shake was very good even though it was not the flavor I ordered. For the price what did I expect, not much and that's just what I got. read more

How can you pass up a place that offers 40 different kinds of milkshakes? This place is amazing! Burgers are fantastic! We need one of these in New Jersey! read more

Great alternative to the chain fast food. The burgers are tasty and homemade-like. Plenty of choices for shakes which must be eaten with a spoon. read more

Only thing I dislike about this restaurant is the menu. It's so hard to read. The neon colors and cramped items seems to make it hard to read. read more

The service was friendly, but what else would I expect in the south. The food was nothing to RAVE about. For those who enjoy THICK milkshakes this is the place for you, as for me I want to use a straw when I drink a milkshake. read more

Rating this as a Cook Out, not a fine restaurant. Haha. This is a drive through and walk-up only store. Since it was next to McDonald's, we were able to park, use the facilities, and go across to the walk up window. The service was good and the food was hot. The food is boxed and easy for car eating. Cheap, too. Corn dogs are fantastic. Cajun seasoning (requested) on the fries is also good. This is not in a sketchy location so no worries. Close to I-95. read more

Food is always quick, done and cooked to perfection. They have alot of young people that work there but most of them are professional and if they mess up your order they definitely make it up to. I suggest it for a quick cheap meal to fill you up for the night... Taste the best on a night of late nite drinking and partying..lol read more

This was our first visit. Staff was very nice and helpful. Between my wife and i we got a couple hot dogs a burger, fries and a shake. The food was good and the shake was great. With all the flavor options, if you cant find one. You really didnt want one. read more

Right next to that M place..... got off hwy n was looking for a quick bite to eat. This place had a line amd no other place did. It was supper cheep and great. Real Milkshakes great Brbq and great burgers. Did not see if they had greens but would not be surprised. Best of all super cheep 4 people ate w 2 having milkshakes for 21 bucks. read more

Food was okay but nothing to rave about. I'm not a fan of the 1/4" thick burger patties. I was hoping for better but should've gone next door for a Wendy's burger instead. read more

Nice change of pace not having to hit a national chain on our drive from FL back to MD. Milkshakes were nice and thick. Cheddar style burger was good--had more bacon than burger (that's not a complaint!). BBQ was okay--I think I would have preferred it without the slaw on top. It masked the flavor of the meat. I'd stop there again if we were driving passed at meal time. read more

Exceptional southern cooking right off 95 that i wish we had up north. the food has many different themes to choose from and also offers exotic shakes. there is no parking and is strictly a drive thru. At the same time there is one window that you can order from. the window gets crowed but the food is quick! read more
