I used to come here more in the past but have been trying other burger places. Normally, this is an easy go to place for a decently priced burger with good taste. The milkshakes always hit the spot. I've come to the conclusion that the milkshakes are outshining the burgers in relativity to price and taste. I was very unimpressed with the burgers I have ordered a couple of times and even more agitated with the price I paid for them. I'm not giving up on this place as I've been very happy in the past. Hoping it was a bad couple of times because the patties were small and the flavor just wasn't making it worth the visit. The service is usually friendly. I've been there before where the workers are just there to work but put little effort into anything else and been there when the workers are very friendly and a pleasure to interact with. read more

This whole combo was a missile!! Had to stop and get some grub while I'm charging my car down the street and I've always wanted to hit up this cookout location so today was the day. They hooked it up. Everything was great. read more

"Fast and delicious!" Reference to Defending Your Life... great movie! Here at Cook Out, you might think you're in paradise because your food comes out quickly and it's fresh! We all got the 1/4 lb. burgers, but there are several weight options. These tasted liked we made them from fresh ground beef and cooked them on our patio grill! The toppings were plentiful and super yummy! These folks can grill me anytime! (The only hiccup was one of the burgers didn't have the toppings we ordered.) Our fries we're crispy on the outside, hot and fluffy on the inside! I've also tried the corn dogs, chicken wraps and hot dogs! And the shakes??? Forgettaboutit! They are supreme! So many flavors or make your own combo! They are thick and creamy! And here's something to cheer about... they serve Cheerwine! The prices are super reasonable and the grub is fabulous for fast food! Three cheers for Cook Out! read more

Cook Out - a hamburger with lettuce, tomato, and cheese - Burgers Near Me - Fredericksburg, Virginia

Food was served hot. So there was something to warrant a 1 star rating. It was our first experience and it was intimidating. A very confusing menu with "combo specials" being pushed by the counter server. Ordered a double burger plain and it came with cheese, over cooked, and loaded with mayonnaise making the roll very soggy. Two sides mushy fries and a dry quesadilla. That's right. A side quesadilla. Also an Oreo milk shake that was mostly ice milk and smashed cookies. This was a 1 & done for me. Place was not clean. Sticky floors, tables not cleared, soda area all wet. Bathroom was just as dirty. Soap dispenser not working. At least I can say I tried it and didn't like it. read more

Horrible service and food. Two different things were completely messed up. I repeated myself 3 times and still was given something incorrect. I asked for mayo ketchup and pickles instead got: ketchup and a BUNCH of mustard..... also ordered a corn dog and received something that doesn't even look safe to eat. (SEE PICTURES) read more

I can always count on lower prices while others raise their prices. I also love their choice of music!

Typical Cook Out. For $6.99 u get your choice of burger or dog or chicken and two sides. There are other options on the menu. So don't expect large meal or gourmet food. Most of the sides are OK and food is OK. My Cajun chicken breast sandwich was small and OK. Sides of onion rings and hush puppies were OK. The kids like it because of cost and selection. read more

I cant even eat my hush puppies they smell so bad. The fryer oil must be being used for DAYS & DAYS... the smell completely reeks.. has it ever been changed? Thats my real question. Least my milkshake wasnt a waste of money, i guess. read more

This will now be the second time I've had a terrible experience at cookout at this location. But what is this??? My receipt says a big double specifically said no onions. Then on top of that I asked for two sides of cheese friends and I get cheese bites. But this isn't the first time they mess up my sides. And I have submitted a yelp review before however it was my gf that did it. I am not racist in fact I'm Mexican and African American, but the Hispanic crew at night literally is the most un friendly, and no were near respectfully crew. They literally look like they hate their job so much. And don't understand anything I say even when I recite it to them at the window and he repeats it back to me we had over 5 things wrong with our order read more

Cook Out is a privately-owned restaurant that started out in NC, but there are locations in TN, SC, GA, VA, WV, and KY. The menu is pretty extensive, offering items such as char-grilled burgers/chicken breast/hot dogs, chopped pork BBQ, spicy chicken breast fillet, chicken strips, sides, floats, and a variety of milkshakes. The hubs and I stopped by for some food for the road. I had a Cheddar Style combo, which was a char-grilled burger topped with cheddar cheese, bacon, grilled onions, and mayo - I added raw onions as well. This burger was right off the griddle and it was super piping hot! Filled generously with both grilled and raw onions, a nice generous amount of cheese and mayo, the burger was pretty satisfying. The patty itself is cooked well-done, and it had the nice charred taste to it, which added even more flavor. The hubs had the A1 burger, which came with A1 sauce, onions, and mayo, opting out of the tomato; just note that the A1 sauce was only a smidgen of an amount, so if you want your burger to be more saucy, ask for more! They have both a dine-in and an drive-thru option. Staff were a little too rude for my taste, and more on the impatient side. Stop by for a good, homecooked simple type of a burger if you're in the area! +char-grilled burgers (Cheddar Style) +dine-in and drive-thru option +slightly rude and impatient staff T____T read more

Ok so the food is pretty much what we expected as far as fast food goes. It was great that they have smaller portions sizes to choose from. The host was friendly and patient. The beverages weee serve yourself. Clearly unsweetened ice tea is not the norm at round there because it was in a pitcher like you have in your own fridge. Husband said the bathroom was unremarkable. The place looked clean The only reason I will never revisit this place is because the food is served on styrofoam. The beverages are served in styrofoam. In 2020 this shouldn't even be an option and because thhe food was ok is the only reason I didn't drop two stars. read more

Check your orders. This place cheats you. Ordered two big doubles only to find that they hide a second pattie under the first that are half the size of the one on top. Cutting corners with what you paid for is false advertising. Food tasted as any other standard cookout. read more

This was the best burger I've ever had in my life. This left me delirious in a fit of ecstasy. This hits different than everything I've ever had. I just wanted a way to thank them for that Big Double Cheddar Style. It changed my life. Maybe it's just because I came from out of state where we don't have Cook Out, but I wish Florida had this nectar of the gods. read more

I wish there were more cookouts further north! Coming to this location whenever I'm headed south is always a treat. The service was good and the food was even better. There is no outdoor seating which is interesting because cookouts traditionally are walkup only. I had the "cookout sauce" for the first time and it was pretty good. It taste good on fries, burgers and nuggets. I capped this meal off with a cheesecake and strawberry shake, heavenly. The only negative note is that one of the stalls in the ladies restroom was not up to par. But all in all it's hard to demand too much from a fast food place besides food food and good service and that's what I got. read more

Cook Out - Burger tray with nuggets and fries - Burgers Near Me - Fredericksburg, Virginia

I don't know what to compare this with other than the Varsity in downtown Atlanta. Just like Toto wasn't in Kansas anymore in the Wizard of Oz, when you see the prices on the billboard, it will shock anyone in the Acela corridor because let me tell y'all this is a whole different world. read more

Service was friendly, professional and fast. We ordered 2 kids meals with milkshakes, a spicy chicken meal that included 2 sides + a drink & a separate burger. Our entire order only cost us $23. The kids meals were decent sized chicken tenders with a generous portion of fries. My chicken sandwich was thin, not spicy, but not bad. A bit disappointed, but it could have been worse. The sides I chose (hush puppies and chili) were smaller portions, so I'll order two of the same thing next time. Lastly, my husband said his burger was great. read more

Been probably 20 times in 3 months. Never disappointed. Cajun chicken is good. Corn dogs as a side! Onion rings with real onions inside. Service is fast. Food is hot. Worst thing that has happened to me is a drink with a broken straw. read more

Came here at 2AM Starved after working all night. Got my food lightning quick and piping hot.

The food is delicious, the workers are very nice, and the prices are great. Our family loves Cook Out and ww would recommend for anyone with a large family trying to find a delicious cheap meal. read more

I usually come here all the time and it's perfect, every single time. This time around I am passing through because I no longer live in the area, the employees are new, whatever. Ordering my food and all was cool, I got my tray of a burger with two sides okra and cheese bites and the okra is cold. Asf. Fix it next time. read more

Not sure if I will ever eat here again. Just look at these dry nasty hotdogs and nuggets!! If I could rate this zero stars I would!! read more

Cook Out - Burgers Near Me - Fredericksburg, Virginia

Clean restaurant. Clean bathrooms. Fast and friendly service. Good food. Great price.

Was told to wait in an available parking spot and they'd bring my food out to me. I ordered a cookout tray and hush puppies and have been waiting for over 20 minutes already. Definitely would recommend any other cookout. read more

I literally have ordered the same milkshake the past 4 times I have been there and only ONE out of those four times have they got it correct. I get extra cheesecake which requires them to charge more, just to get my milkshake and have NO cheesecake. Like how do I ask for extra and you forget it nearly EVERY TIME. you guys gotta do better. read more

THE GOOD: Very clean dining and restroom, delicious food, excellent prices. THE NOT-SO-GOOD: Chocolate malt shake was light on flavor. I have been to a few Cook-Out locations but this was the best so far. It was very clean; there's a handwash station right beside the soda machine (why doesn't everywhere do this?!), and the restroom was well-stocked, in good repair, and was clean. Pulling into the parking lot we could smell that yummy grill smoke scent wafting around. I ordered the double burger with fries and a chocolate malt shake. The double burger is on the small side but very flavorful and not greasy. The bun was soft and fresh and the fries were small but not skinny. The chocolate shake was good but was lightly flavored. The prices are low, too so I will definitely eat here again when I'm in the area. read more

We placed our order. I ordered 2 hotdogs and my husband did as well. I went to fill my drink. My husband paid the bill and then called to me asking what I wanted on the hotdogs. I asked what I could get. The manager said I could get whatever I wanted. So I said chilli and cheese. Hubby said he would like chili as well. The manager THEN tells him there is a charge for the chilli and cheese....after it was all paid for. She made us pay for the chilli even after my husband explained she never mentioned it in the first place. read more

Good prices,pretty good food, great shakes---the bad: drive thru orders consistently wrong,employees act rude and annoyed that you are there, don't even bother to call to try to get the manager on the phone, no one EVER answers it. If you do go make sure you check the bag before you pull away, we live 1/2 hour away and did not want to drive back to get the right order, as if that could even happen. We have been there a few times, we will not be going back to this location. read more

This is such an awesome fast food restaurant! I have never had it before prior to this trip and I am truly a fan. This particular one had extremely friendly staff and were very understanding when I was a little shocked by the number of options I had to choose from when pulling into the drive-thru. Their cajun seasoning for the fries was amazing and every single fry was evenly covered with it! I know this sounds insane but that is something that most restaurants miss because they just shake it on top. The sweet tea was good and their chicken quesadilla was not overwhelmed with cheese. It was lacking with the chicken but again, being a fast food place I understand. Overall, I will definitely be stopping by here again whenever possible. I also wanted to add that the interior was clean. read more

Anytime I'm near a cook out I always have to stop. They have the best milkshakes (even better than sonic!). I usually mix two to three different flavors to make my perfect milkshake. The options are endless. Also if you're hungry then the only option is to get a tray. One main item plus two sides?! Can't beat that! read more

Just ordered 2 small burgers with onion, lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, mustard, mayo, a large fry, and large coke. Neither burgers had ketchup, mayo, or mustard. One of the burgers was a meat patty between 2 buns. My large fry had 9 fries in it Unbelievable...... read more

If you must eat fastfood why not get the most for your money? Cookout offers the best combo in the fastfood arena! $4.99 gets you a sandwich, 2 sides to choose and a beverage! If you eat fastfood then you know other combos start at $6 and go up when you add a drink. Not to mention two sides! Try ordering two sides from any other fastfood restaurant, they would want your right hand for payment! This particular chain was clean, fast and my food was HOT! There's nothing worse that cold fastfood! Ugh! Oh, and if you are a fan of Shakes, BOI will they meet your expectations! And you can add it to their $4.99 combo for $1. Try doing that somewhere else and watch your bill go through the roof! How do they do that and stay in business? Yes, there is a catch! You pay for certain things that you add to your sandwich and shake. Like tomatoes are .10 and cheese is .40 and a fancy shake adds a $1 to the $1.95 you will normally pay for a soft drink. So there are little subtle ways they can get that price up on you. So Ask questions before you pile on the options! Another Fatboy Chronicles Adventure, until next time! read more

Cook Out - Front counter - Burgers Near Me - Fredericksburg, Virginia

My family moved down here 2 years ago, and since then have not been able to dine in there I guess becuase of Covid. I went for the 4th time tonight in Feb 2022, and inside was not open, stating becuase of Covid. sorry U can be OPEN INSIDE, U CHOOSE NOT TO BE. read more

When Cookout originally opened here it was great. Then as it got older I noticed a decline in the way my food was getting made. Every time I order something it is not cooked all the way or they mess my order up, and on the top of that the service their is usually awful. read more

Terrible experience, three of us in the vehicle of course had to go through the drive thru which is understandable. Three separate orders and all three were wrong, the communication was non-existent through the speaker, and none of the changes to each order were noted. After waiting through the drive thru we did not deem it worth our time to go back and get the order fixed. On top of that we collectively agreed the onion rings and fries tasted about two days old. read more

We stopped in on a busy Sunday (got there before the lunch rush) and were saddened to hear that the fryer was broken... How can you be a fast food restaurant and not be able to offer French fries? The burgers were good. Hot dog was good too. The restaurant was clean and the clerk who took our order was nice. We'll be back, as I'm sure they'll get the fryer fixed and then we can get fries too. read more

I got Cookout for the first time and it was pretty disappointing. I ordered a burger and a fry but only got the burger. What happened to my fries??? The buns was wet and soggy when I open it. read more

As we pulled into the drive through to begin our order the girl asked for our order and as we began to say the order she continuously interrupted us and we then said one moment can we finish the order and she continued to interrupt us so we eventually had to go inside to speak to the manager and ended up not ordering at all read more
