About This Place

Nestled on E 2nd St in Jackson, GA, Cook's Lunchroom is a charming local gem that delivers classic American comfort food with a personal touch. This unassuming spot embraces simplicity and quality, offering a true taste of hometown flavors that keep customers coming back time and again.

The menu centers on beloved staples like hot dogs and burgers, but the real stars are the Chili Cheese Dogs and the Chili Cheeseburger, both of which showcase Cook’s signature chili con carne topping. The chili itself is rich and hearty, perfectly seasoned to add a savory warmth to each bite, while the fresh cut fries topped with gooey melted cheese are indulgently satisfying. Pair these with an ice-cold Coke or sweet tea, and you’ve got a classic Southern meal that evokes nostalgia with every mouthful.

What truly sets Cook’s Lunchroom apart is its welcoming, no-frills atmosphere that invites diners to relax and enjoy honest, quality food without pretense. The staff’s kindness and attentiveness elevate the dining experience; they make you feel like part of the community from the moment you step inside.

Belinda Clark's discovery sums it up perfectly: despite living close by, it took a social media recommendation for her to try their cheeseburgers and pulled pork sandwich—and now she admits she had been missing out all along. Michelle Whitaker’s praise highlights how the spicy, flavorful hot dogs have converted her family into regulars, with her husband even taking chili home to savor later. Joshua Avery appreciates the gourmet twist on familiar favorites, even if prices are slightly above average, declaring every bite worth it.

Whether you’re craving a quick lunch, a flavorful snack, or a simple place with comforting down-home food, Cook's Lunchroom delivers with authenticity and heart. The blend of tantalizing chili, perfectly cooked hot dogs and burgers, and fresh, crispy fries crafted with care makes it a must-visit for both locals and visitors seeking true Southern comfort eats.

For a straightforward menu packed with bold flavors and warm hospitality, Cook’s Lunchroom is the quintessential Jackson stop that promises a genuine, satisfying meal every time.

    Today was my first time ever eating from this establishment. I reside less than five minutes away from the restaurant and never stopped in. I saw someone on social media say how good the cheeseburgers were so I was inclined to try it. I ordered the cheeseburger and a pulled pork sandwich and fries because I wanted to see how different things tasted. I will say that I’ve been sleeping on this establishment but now I’m woke. The customer service was great just like the food. I definitely will be going back.

    I decided to try this today because we’ve never been here and my husbands favorite food are hotdogs. We both absolutely loved this place and my husband loved it so much he ordered some chilli to go. We will absolutely be adding this to the rotation!

    Little hole in the wall place I found. Great chilli slaw dogs. A little on the high end but worth every penny!

    I googled small sandwich shops in Jackson and these guys came up. I liked the look so I stopped in. The food is excellent and the staff are very kind. I really love the fries and the tea is just right sweet. I will be back.

    Little hole in the wall, don't let the outside appearance fool you. Great little joint for awesome fries, burgers, hotdogs and their chili is really good. Everything is perfect. Bring cash cause they don't take cards!

    Hole in the wall with big flavor! Pull pork was the bee’s knees good. Hot, fresh, old fashioned fries. Cold and refreshing drinks. The customer service and atmosphere was homey and welcoming. Great place for dine in or quick bite! Cash only and by all means leave them a nice tip.
