Cook Out Greensboro NC — All 7 Locations, Hours & Addresses (2026)

1. Randleman Road — The Original — 2617 Randleman Rd, Greensboro NC 27406

⏰ Hours: Opens 10:30 AM  •  Sun–Thu 3:00 AM  •  Fri–Sat 4:00 AM

This is where it started. 2617 Randleman Road is the location of the original Cook Out restaurant, opened in 1989 by Morris Reaves. Randleman Road runs south from downtown Greensboro toward Randleman in Randolph County. Reaves built the concept around double drive-thru lanes, commissary-fresh beef, and a tray system that let customers build a full meal for under five dollars. That concept did not change. Everything else about Cook Out scaled from this one location.

The Randleman Road location is the chain’s most historically significant address. Industry journalists and food writers who cover quick-service restaurants have written about this location as the origin point of the largest fast food company most of the country has never heard of. If you are visiting Greensboro, this is the one to go to first.

2. Battleground Avenue — 2602 Battleground Ave, Greensboro NC 27408

⏰ Hours: Opens 10:30 AM  •  Sun–Thu 3:00 AM  •  Fri–Sat 4:00 AM
