Why Does Roxboro Have Only One Cook Out?
Roxboro is a small county seat — 8,134 people at the 2020 census — and the only municipality in Person County, so one store covers the market. That makes the Walker Street drive-thru one of the busiest late-night food stops in the county.
1989: Cook Out opens its first restaurant in Greensboro, about 55 miles west of Roxboro. Founder Morris Reaves built the chain around charbroiled burgers, barbecue, trays and thick milkshakes.
Growth across the Triangle: Cook Out spread through Durham, Raleigh and the I-85 corridor, including Oxford and Creedmoor in Granville County, giving Person County residents several stores within a half-hour drive.
October 2026: Cook Out’s locator lists Roxboro’s Walker Street store as open — one of 144 open Cook Outs in North Carolina. No other store is listed in Person County.
Coming soon across the state line: A South Boston, Virginia store at 3616 Old Halifax Rd. is listed as coming soon per Cook Out’s locator, about 24 miles north of Roxboro up US-501.
We have not found a reliable public record of the Roxboro store’s opening date, so this guide does not give one. If you remember when it opened, the store’s history is a good question for longtime locals at the counter.
One correction for travelers: Virginia does have Cook Outs — 42 open stores as of October 2026 — including Danville, about 28 miles northwest of Roxboro at 3409 Riverside Dr.
How Do I Get to the Roxboro Cook Out From US-501 or US-158?
Roxboro sits where US-501 (north–south) meets US-158 (east–west); the Cook Out on Walker Street is just north of Uptown, a few minutes from either highway. There is no interstate in Person County, so most visitors arrive on these two US routes.
- US-501 from Durham: The main commuter road south to Durham, about 30 miles. It passes Person County Airport, about 8 miles south of town, on the way.
- US-501 from South Boston, VA: Comes in from the north; Virginia travelers can reach Roxboro without touching an interstate.
- US-158 from Oxford: Runs east to Oxford and I-85 in Granville County.
- US-158 from the west: Connects Roxboro with Caswell County and Yanceyville.
- From I-85: Leave the interstate at Durham or Oxford and follow US-501 or US-158 into Roxboro.
Once in town, follow signs for Uptown, then continue north; Walker Street is about half a mile above the courthouse square. Use the directions button in the store directory for turn-by-turn routing.
What Is Near the Cook Out in Roxboro?
The Roxboro Cook Out serves a lake-country county seat known for Hyco Lake, Mayo Lake, a restored uptown and a reputation as the “Snow Capital of the Triangle.” These are the places most likely to send a hungry crowd to Walker Street.
Uptown Roxboro The Main Street Uptown district includes the restored Kirby Civic Auditorium, Merritt Commons Pavilion and the Roxboro Farmers Market on Depot Street. After a show at the Kirby, Cook Out is a short drive north.
Hyco Lake The lake northwest of town hosts the Flem Whitt Beach Music Festival, usually the first weekend in August. Lake days in summer often end with a tray on the way home.
Mayo Lake & Mayo Park North of Roxboro, Mayo Park is part of the county park system and hosts the Lake Mayo Canoe/Kayak Festival each spring.
Piedmont Community College PCC’s main campus is in Roxboro, and students and evening-class crowds make up part of the late-night trade.
Person Memorial Hospital Roxboro’s hospital, operated by LifePoint Health, is a source of overnight shift workers who appreciate a drive-thru open into the early morning.
Person County Museum of History Housed in the Kitchin House in Roxboro, the museum covers the county’s tobacco and mill heritage, including the Roxboro Cotton Mill.
Roxboro was incorporated in 1855 and named after Roxburgh, Scotland. Its higher elevation and frequent snowfall earned it the “Snow Capital of the Triangle” nickname, so expect weather-related closures or shortened hours on icy nights.
What Time Does Cook Out Close in Roxboro?
Most Cook Out restaurants open at 10:30 AM and stay open until about 3 AM Sunday through Thursday and about 4 AM on Friday and Saturday. Hours vary by store, so check the Roxboro store’s current hours on Cook Out’s locator or call before a very late trip.
| Day | Typical Cook Out hours | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Sunday–Thursday | 10:30 AM – about 3:00 AM | Varies by store |
| Friday–Saturday | 10:30 AM – about 4:00 AM | Varies by store |
| Holidays and snow days | Often reduced or closed | Call ahead |
In Person County, those hours matter. Most local restaurants close well before midnight, and the next Cook Out is more than 20 miles away, so the Walker Street drive-thru is often the only hot meal option after late shifts, ball games and lake trips.
The store is built around drive-thru and walk-up service rather than a dining room. Expect lines after 10 PM on Friday and Saturday and plan to eat in the car or at home.
What Should I Order at Cook Out in Roxboro, and What Does It Cost?
The best value is the Cookout Tray: an entree, two sides and a drink for about $7.39–$7.99. Prices vary slightly by store; the Roxboro menu follows the standard Cook Out menu.
- Cookout Tray (entree + 2 sides + drink): about $7.39–$7.99
- Jr. Tray: from about $5.29
- Milkshakes: about $3.99, with 40+ flavors

- Sides: fries, onion rings, hushpuppies, slaw, chili, corn dogs, bacon wraps
- Drinks: soft drinks, sweet tea, Cheerwine, lemonade

How Does Cook Out Compare With Other Food in Roxboro?
Cook Out wins in Roxboro on hours and value: a full tray under $8, served long after most Person County kitchens close. Local diners, barbecue spots and Uptown restaurants are still the choice for sit-down meals.
| Option | Best for | How Cook Out compares |
|---|---|---|
| Local diners and Uptown restaurants | Sit-down meals, breakfast | Cook Out is faster and cheaper but has no dining room or breakfast |
| Eastern-style barbecue places | Whole-hog chopped pork | Cook Out’s BBQ is a quick budget version, best with slaw and hushpuppies |
| National burger and chicken chains | Familiar fast food | Cook Out’s tray adds two sides and a drink for similar money |
| Durham’s restaurant scene | Variety, nightlife | Worth the drive for dinner; Cook Out is the local late-night fallback |
Milkshakes are Cook Out’s clearest advantage. Forty-plus flavors, from banana pudding and peach cobbler to Cheerwine floats, cost about the same as a single plain shake elsewhere.
