Cook Out Flowood MS — Menu, Prices, Hours & Directions (2026)

Is There a Cook Out in Flowood, Mississippi?

Yes. Flowood has one Cook Out, at 121 E Pineview Dr, Flowood, MS 39232, in the Pinelands mixed-use development just off Lakeland Drive (MS-25), according to the Cook Out store locator (October 2026). It is the only Cook Out in Rankin County.

East Pineview Drive is part of the Pinelands retail area on the Lakeland Drive corridor, where Walmart Supercenter, Kroger and Walgreens anchor the shopping and Bojangles, 7 Brew Coffee and Smalls Sliders sit among the quick-service neighbors. Commercial listings for the Pinelands parcels put Lakeland Drive traffic at roughly 35,000 to 36,000 vehicles a day, so expect a busy drive-thru at lunch and after games.

The second Cook Out in the Jackson area is at 986 High St in Jackson, near I-55 and the State Fairgrounds, about 9.5 miles west in a straight line. Mississippi has nine open Cook Out stores in total as of October 2026, and the locator lists no coming-soon store within 30 miles of Flowood.

• Address: 121 E Pineview Dr, Flowood, MS 39232
• Main road: Lakeland Drive (MS-25), Flowood’s main east–west corridor
• Typical hours: 10:30 AM to about 3 AM Sunday–Thursday, about 4 AM Friday–Saturday (varies by store)

Where Are the Cook Out Locations in Flowood and Jackson?

Flowood’s store is listed first, followed by the Jackson High St store with its straight-line distance from the Flowood location. Addresses come from the Cook Out store locator (October 2026); tap Directions on either card to open Google Maps. Driving distance is longer than the straight-line figure because Lakeland Drive and I-55 loop around the Pearl River and LeFleur’s Bluff.

Which Cook Out Is Closest to Me Around Flowood?

Anyone east of the Pearl River, in Flowood, Brandon, Pearl or around the Reservoir, should head to E Pineview Dr. West of the river, in Jackson proper, the High St store is usually closer.

Rush-hour traffic on Lakeland Drive between I-55 and Flowood can make the 9.5-mile gap feel longer than it is. Late at night, when the corridor is quiet, either store is usually a 15 to 20 minute drive from the other.

How Did Cook Out Fit Into the Flowood and Jackson Market?

Cook Out is a North Carolina chain, founded in Greensboro in 1989 by Morris Reaves, and Mississippi sits at the western edge of its footprint. Flowood and Jackson give the Jackson metro two of the state’s nine open stores as of October 2026.

We could not confirm a reliable public opening date for either Jackson-area store, so we do not print one here. What is clear is the setting: Flowood’s store sits in a newer mixed-use development rather than an older strip center surrounded by national retailers, hotels and fast-casual chains on the busiest stretch of Lakeland Drive.

How Do I Get to the Flowood Cook Out From I-55, I-20 or Brandon?

Lakeland Drive (MS-25) is the key road: it runs from I-55 in Jackson, across the Pearl River into Flowood, and on toward Brandon. The Cook Out is in the Pinelands development on E Pineview Dr, just off that corridor.

• From I-55: Take the Lakeland Drive exit in Jackson and head east on MS-25, past St. Dominic Hospital and across the Pearl River into Flowood. Continue along the shopping corridor to the Pinelands area and Pineview Dr. A commercial listing for the site estimates about 15 minutes from I-55.
• From I-20 or Pearl: Use Airport Road (MS-475) north from the Pearl and airport side of Rankin County to Lakeland Drive, then follow Lakeland to Pineview Dr.
• From the airport (JAN): Jackson-Medgar Wiley Evers International Airport is roughly a 10-minute drive, which makes this an easy first or last stop for travelers with a rental car.
• From Brandon: Head west on Lakeland Drive toward Flowood. The Pinelands, Walmart Supercenter and Kroger are the landmarks to watch for.
• From the Reservoir: Come south toward Lakeland Drive from the Rankin County neighborhoods around the Ross Barnett Reservoir, then turn onto the corridor toward Pineview Dr.

If you are already in Jackson and near I-55, compare drive times with the High St store first. For the city side of the river it is often the quicker run.

What Is Near the Flowood Cook Out?

The Flowood Cook Out sits in the middle of Rankin County’s main shopping strip. Big-box stores, fast-casual chains, hotels and two outdoor shopping centers line Lakeland Drive within a short drive.

Is There a Cook Out Near UMMC, Jackson State or the Flowood Hospitals?

Students and hospital staff on the Jackson side of the river are closest to the High St store; anyone working in Flowood or Brandon is closest to E Pineview Dr. Both stay open late, which is why Cook Out is popular with night-shift workers.

Because hours vary by store and can be cut short on slow or short-staffed nights, night-shift workers should check the store’s Google listing before heading out at 2 AM.

What Time Does Cook Out Close in Flowood?

These are chain-wide norms rather than a posted schedule for 121 E Pineview Dr. Late hours can be shortened on holidays, during severe weather or when a store is short-staffed, and the walk-up window may close before the drive-thru. For a deeper look at closing times, holidays and the late-night menu, see our guide to Cook Out’s late-night hours.

Cook Out is a drive-thru and walk-up chain, and most locations do not have a dining room. Plan to eat in the car or take your tray home. After about midnight, the Flowood store is one of the few places on Lakeland Drive still serving burgers and milkshakes.

What’s on the Cook Out Flowood Menu, and How Much Does It Cost?

The best value is the Cookout Tray: one entree plus two sides and a drink for about $7.39–$7.99. The Jr. Tray starts at about $5.29, and a milkshake runs about $3.99. These are typical prices that vary by store, not a printed Flowood menu.

First-timer tip: Order a Big Double “Cook Out Style” (chili, slaw, onions and mustard) as your tray entree, take hushpuppies and onion rings as your sides, and make the drink a Cheerwine, the North Carolina cherry soda that is a Cook Out staple. A Cheerwine float is on the menu too.

• Jr. Tray: from about $5.29
• Milkshakes (40+ flavors): about $3.99

Browse every combination on our Cook Out tray menu page, and the full flavor list on the Cook Out milkshake menu.

How Does Cook Out Compare to Flowood’s Local Favorites?
