About Cookout in Wilmington

Four Cook Out restaurants serve Wilmington, at 715 S. College Rd., 5615 Carolina Beach Road and two others. That is four of the 144 across North Carolina. Leland has the nearest alternative at roughly 8 miles, worth knowing when the local drive thru backs up.

Every burger is char grilled when the order goes in rather than held under a lamp, which is the reason the wait runs a little longer than a standard fast food window. The layout is built around the drive thru, with a walk up window and outdoor seating instead of a full indoor dining room. Between them they average 4.1 out of 5 on Google. The same menu is served from open to close, so nothing is unavailable late.

Dining at Cookout in Wilmington

A Quesadilla runs $3.69, a Cheese Dog $0.99 and onion rings $1.59. For something sweet, Cheesecake is $1.99 and the shake list starts at $2.79. Prices at Wilmington restaurants are set locally rather than nationally, so expect small differences of a few cents from the figures here. The full menu carries every item with its price and calorie count.

The doors here open at 10:30 AM, with the kitchen running to 3:00 AM and to 4:00 AM on Friday and Saturday. Cook Out serves no breakfast, so the full board is available from open. Drive thru and walk up ordering both work, the app handles pickup, and the delivery platforms cover most of Wilmington at a higher price than ordering in person.

Groups are well served by the tray format, since every tray arrives as a complete meal. That removes the assembly a normal bulk order needs. Cook Out publishes no catering menu, so a large Wilmington order means calling the restaurant ahead and letting it know what is coming.
