Cook Out
Phone: (866) 547-0011
Overview
Founded in North Carolina, Cookout is a crucial late night eatery across many cities in the Southeast. You can order from Cookout well past midnight, and at three different locations across Durham – just be prepared to wait in the drive thru line. While there’s much debate on the makeup of the perfect Cookout Tray, one thing is agreed upon across the board: make sure you order a milkshake.

I was in town visiting late Friday night. It was the 6 of us in the van. Three of them never had cookout. The young lady in the drive through was very patient and answered all the questions that was asked as well as gave some good suggestions. They got all orders correct. The line was long on both sides. The staff was getting everyone taken care of in a very timely manner. I would go back if I lived there. -
Came there around 6:20pm and lady on the speaker asked for our order… cut us off to say give her a second and she responded a second later. Order my food proceeded to pay its whatever. Mind you we weren’t even saying anything but getting our stuff and going and she just slammed the window on us? Ts is crazy. Proceeded to leave to figure out they never even mixed my cheerwine float. -
A very solid cookout. I ordered a BLT, chicken quesadilla, and cheese bites. I got a lot of cheese bites, more than normal so I am very happy 🧀 and the quesadillas were correct (sometimes they're just random) For the price, I'm okay with any food they want to put in there
The service could be better; the window was being closed on me as I asked for sauce but it's okay because I bet it gets hard to work there. The pay isn't very good and its hard to be happy when you cant pay the bills. So 8/10 cookout good job -
I ordered a chocolate peanut butter milkshake through the drive-through and the associate asked me again what I wanted which was a chocolate peanut butter milkshake she said peanut butter milkshake and I said no a chocolate peanut butter milkshake with extra peanut butter and then she said again a peanut butter milkshake and I said no a chocolate peanut butter milkshake with extra peanut butter. I get home only to find out that she’s giving me a regular peanut butter milkshake as you can see from the pictures is vanilla and the color of peanut butter didn’t taste any chocolate in it. It literally was a peanut butter milkshake. I asked for Cajun fries. I ended up getting regular fries so I can say that when I go to this location when the manager is on duty everything comes out perfect but not sure who was there today at 11am but it was not good service at all. So be mindful there is an awesome manager who works the window some morning who is black whenever I order when she is there everything comes out amazing. Today was not it I hope I can change this rating but it’s really disappointing when you pay for something and they miss the mark on both items. -
Swung by on my way through Durham heading back to Raleigh. 120AM so decided to stop as the other Cookouts would be close to 2AM. Tray was great. Tea perfect. Yall should train your Raleigh crew on food quality. Be back when around.
