I ate at two during a roadtrip from Florida to NC. A double patty thick hamburger fully loaded with a corndog, fries, AND a large drink for $5.49? How is that "expensive"? A Big Mac is like 9 bucks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-61460546825086745052016-07-07T19:37:16.571-04:002016-07-07T19:37:16.571-04:00Just drove through North Carolina and South Caroli...Just drove through North Carolina and South Carolina last week.

Panola and Moreland have the worst traffic issues.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-14289607903586071182016-06-30T08:58:10.094-04:002016-06-30T08:58:10.094-04:00CookOut will be the first mass chain to falter her...CookOut will be the first mass chain to falter here in ATL, especially in addition to Freddie's and Culver's entering this market at the same time. I went to college in NC and can tell you I am not excited about CookOut knowing that their quailty is just not the same. Expansion has not been good for CookOut.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-12117640143767618712016-06-29T20:59:31.960-04:002016-06-29T20:59:31.960-04:00@Ham: That's the plan for most stores, get you...@Ham: That's the plan for most stores, get you hooked in the beginning with friendly faces and great service as soon as they open, and a week or two later after the reviews have all been written, the "real" crew comes in.

However, on a couple of subsequent visits the place has deteriorated fast. I suppose originally they had some corporate management or something on site because they seemed very efficient, food was decent, service was good and the place was clean. However, on my last two visits none of this was true.

Make sure Cookout has a traffic plan that can accommodate at LEAST 10-20 cars in the drive-thru. If you don't, they will literally let the drive-thru lane snake out onto the street. I like Cookout too, but the design of their east Atlanta store is terrible -- they should either get rid of the drive-thru window or redesign it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
