Most bland food I’ve had in a while, their bbq sauce taste like it’s mixed with ketchup. The chili cheese fries are just nacho cheese and hamburger mashed up. Everything needed seasoning. We tried the mushroom burger the chili cheese fries the nuggets and the double burger. Very disappointed spending 40 dollars on dinner for it to be bland. My boyfriend and I wanted to try something new around Sacramento but that was a mistake and we will be sticking to our usuals from now on!

First visit was yesterday. Had only the Double Burger. It was so big , I had trouble biting it. This is burger perfection! I have returned today for another double, and some fries. The fries are waaay better than McDonald’s, same style. This reminds me of the burger drive-ins from the 80’s . Everyone says the Shakes are superb. Glad that I found this gem nestled in east Sac, I’m bringing the fam back asap! Highly Recommend this place! 10 stars

Cookie's never disappoints. Excellent burgers regardless of burger type. Great shakes. The thin french fries are really good, too! A classic and must-go for any burger lover.

Cookie's Drive In is an old fashion hamburger stand. It opened back in 1956 in East Sacramento on 57th and H Street, walking distance from CSU Sacramento's front entrance on J Street. It is awesome that they are still in business after all these years. It is divey, old school.
Their current menu is huge. But the pricing is not. They offer the classic burger in 10 different ways four exotic burgers (ostrich, buffalo, elk, and wild boar), four different kinds of vegetarian burgers, 20 sandwiches (includes pastrami, Philly steak, catfish, salmon) , teriyaki bowls (chicken or beef), shrimp basket, chicken strips, fish n chips, and dessert offerings (frosties, swirlies (aka soft serve), shakes (with malt), freezes, and banana split).
I luved the French fries. They reminded me of McDs. Same size. Crisp, golden fried fries. Fried to the perfect fineness. Touch of salt. Mmm. A small size cost $3.80. The baby burger ran about $5. Solid basic burger. It has chopped lettuce and pickles.The taco $3.80. I enjoyed it and hubs did not. The shell is a fried flour tortilla, he thought the shell and meat was too greasy. I disagreed. The meat was saucy and not greasy. I found the meat to be flavorful, and no not in a fatty greasy flavor kind of way. It had flavor from the seasoning. Sloppy goodness. Same taco, two different perspectives.
This place is take out. Patrons can call in orders ahead of time. Time saver.Expect long waits during peak rush hours They have a few tables outside right along the parking lot, and to the ordering line and folks waiting. It gets awkwardly cozy crowded. Plus another important note is there are no restrooms.

I live in Colorado now but I'm still thinking about Cookie's 🥰
It definitely reminds you that you can still dine outside or just sit in your car and eat.
Love treating myself and friends to the delicious burgers, fries, and milk shakes.
I trird the Butterfinger shake. It was mostly vanilla with a little bit of candy. Okay but not great. Next time I'll try coffee toffee. Cute place.
My favorite was the fried mushrooms and onion rings. The burger could be a bit juicier but overall excellent place for lunch.
