The only time one can truly appreciate all that Cook Out has to offer is between the hours of 10pm - 2am. This is when they are in full force and all of the good people watching happens.
We have seen it all at this Cook Out and all different types of people come here. There is a hotel next door, and it runs along a busy South Tryon, so you will never know who you are going to meet at the walkup window.
Also if you are at the walkup window, be prepared to wait. They will serve everyone in the drive thru line first because those are timed and you are not.
We have never gotten bad food from this location. It is always hot and fresh.
