Amazing breakfast sandwich!

Not just vegan, but was able to get a fat V/GF breakfast sandwich that checked all the boxes. Yumm!

Pros: Options, Tofu scramble, Mushroom sausage

Super cute little place, you have to walk through celestial foods to get there, great atmosphere with tons of plants everywhere! Had the ciabatta with pesto and it was amazing! The staff was super friendly!

Wow!!

I don't say this lightly - best plate of food after over a month on Oahu. What an amazing surprise this little kitchen is!! I had the volcano bowl, which had a tofu patty over a bed of fried rice, along with a gorgeous salad with picked red onions, coconut bacon, and an amazing aioli. Just WOW, it was so tasty and left me wanting more.

Pros: Delicious food, Lots of options , Protein for the win!!

Out of this world

I’ve been coming for years and love love love this place! Nestled in the back of a tiny health food store - the type where you can walk in barefoot after sidestepping chickens.
The food has only gotten better over the years. I love when they have musubi - perfect appetizer while waiting for your order. Then taking the order to the beach to eat.
Lots of GF options. Fresh, local ingredients. And all vegan. It’s small, but mighty.
Fun to wander the store while waiting.

Pros: A North Shore experience

Cons: Limited hours

A back alley delight

Cosmic kitchen

A fully vegan back alley delight.
Decent sized menu, just a few seats from what I saw, but the decor emphasizes that they are more of a grab and go restaurant so it is fair. Very kind service, took a bit but was worth the try in my opinion. Cannot complain about the price.
I got the pina colada smoothie and the breakfast sandwich.
Piña colada: very enjoyable, cannot complain, honestly above average In my opinion.
The breakfast sandwich: was great for an earthy meal, a little messy but worth getting.

It was pretty satisfying, I may come back to give them another try. Not a go-to compared to the other options but very very good, and I would say excellent amongst their peers. (Cosmic>peace cafe) in my opinion so far.

Pros: Service, Taste

Great big experience in a tiny little package.

Cosmic Kitchen in Hawaii is easily one of my favorite spots to visit on the North Shore. It's consistently a great experience, with delicious food that leaves me feeling satisfied and enjoying good vibes. Huge thanks to the dedicated folks at Cosmic Kitchen for consistently delivering such wonderful meals!

Best Vegan Sandwich Ever?!?

Everything is amazing. But the B.L.A.T. with Tempeh on Whole Grain and Garlic Dynamite sauce might be the best quick vegan sandwich EVER! All vegan, and don’t forget to ask about the specials and desserts. Chia pudding, Cacao-Avocado pudding and Brownies are out of this world. I suppose that’s why they chose the name “Cosmic” Kitchen.

Pros: Lots of Delicious Vegan Choices, Quality Ingredients , Flavors are wonderful!

INCREDIBLE

Looked for some vegan food on Happy Cow and because I was on that side of the island Cosmic Kitchen was my only option. It turned out to an amazing find.

I had their veggie burger on gluten-free bread and it was so on point. From the veggie patty itself all the way to all of the delicious veggies on the sando. What was there not to like.

Next time I'm in the neighborhood I know where I'll be eating!

Pros: Delicious bread, Amazing veggies , Wonderful patty

Very good vegan options

Small vegan cafe inside of Celestial Natural Foods. A bit hard to find the first time. Good smoothies. I had one of the bowls which was a little plain but ingredients were fresh.

Their Milkshake Brings All The Vegans To The Yard

Cheesy Subject, but I was trying to be clever. The vegan milkshake was really good, we got the Maca Me Happy with Hemp Milk. #Veganuary

Best BLAT (Bacon Tempeh, Lettuce, Avocado, Tomato) in Oahu!

This amazing little cafe is located in the back of a health food grocery market that also sells amazing food and products! I always order 3 BLATS with garlic and dynamite dressing on gluten free bread and eat them throughout the day!

Pros: Best vegan Sandwiches in Oahu!, Delicious Iced Tea.., Amazing sauces like Dynamite, Garlic , Pesto and m

Delicious Healthy Food

Fantastic food with tons of flavor, lots of greens, and a perfect spot for smoothies. The only downside is there is limited outdoor seating in a back alley if you'd like to sit outside. it isn't always busy and I have had no problems eating there. The staff are incredible and really helpful when making recommendations. Definitely try the coconut bacon! It’s made in-house and a great add-on

Love this place

The food here is so good! I’m the only vegan in my family and we all like it here. The sourdough bread is amazing. I would buy it if they sold it separately.

Pros: Great bread, Food is tasty and reasonable priced, Staff is nice

Cons: A little weird they charge to cut your sandwich

Great soup!

Here checking out the site. This store has tons of really good food and products. I had the loaded baked potato soup with coconut bacon. I should have ordered a large. Friendly employees too.

Out of This World!

I ordered the Cosmic Egg-less Salad, which includes local organic tofu, coconut bacon, pickled red onions, cucumber slices, and local lettuce and sprouts on sourdough (or ciabatta or whole grain) bread with pesto (or dynamite, garlic, or pineapple) aioli. We waited a half hour for our food, but it was worth it. The sandwich was messy, but tasty.

Tip: Order online to avoid waiting.

Pros: all vegan, big portions, utensils available upon request

Cons: long wait for food

Expensive for what I got and can hear employees trash-talking the customers

Not cool, can make better food at home, got like close to nothing for the price. Just go to beat box.

Cons: Expensive, Inappropriate employees

Amazing sandwiches!

Tried the tunaless melt with ciabatta bread and pesto aioli. One of the best sandwiches I've had! SO flavorful and had a nice mix of fresh veggies and protein. Came out piping hot.

Also saw they have an option for zero waste takeout via Full Cycle Takeout, check it out!

Pros: Generous portions, Zero waste takeout option (requires sign up)

Cons: Hidden in the back of Celestial Natural Foods

Great hidden hole in the wall

This place is a little hard to find at first , just park in the parking lot beside the mail post and you will see a cafe in the same building , just walk around to the side and you will be greeted to a shop on the side of a wall. No signs or indications pointing to you there . You really gotta just trust google maps and walk until you see it!

Pros: Really delicious vegan meals, Flavourful that really has a fresh and umami tast

Cons: Mostly sandwiches, couple soups, and smoothie, No seating just a shoot in the side of the wall

So good.

We ate here twice during our vacation. Between me and my family (some are omnivores) we tried almost everything and it was perfect. Very large sandwiches with great flavor. My fav was a soup I got one day with potatoes in it. OMG 😍🌺

Pros: Delicious, Nice staff, Fair price.

Vegans! Do not miss this Gem!

My vegan family LOVED this place! Delicious food and all vegan. Worth the drive from Honolulu just for this food! But it’s also close to Wameia Bay which was a great beach for our kids. The owner is so nice and you can tell they care about everything that goes into their food. The breakfast sandwich was excellent, the jackfruit Hawaiian sandwich eas perfect, and my kids loved the kids breakfast tofu scramble bowl with coconut bacon! I hope they open a location in the southern part of the island. THANK YOU cosmic kitchen for doing what you do!

Pros: ALL vegan, Amazing food, Close by Wameia Bay!

Worth the Trip - Don't miss it!

Cosmic Kitchen can be a little challenging to find. Park in the USPS parking lot and walk next door to the small grocery store. The restaurant is located in the very back right of the grocery store, but also has a walk up window in the alleyway. Get the Kahlua Jackfruit sandwich with pineapple and dynamite aioli - you won't regret it! It's the perfect blend of sweet and spicy, with juicy flavorful jackfruit. We made the trip up twice in 1 week, it was that good!

Amazing Sandwiches and Soup!

This is a great place to get quick yummy food to take and eat at the beach. I love B.L.A.T sandwich with pesto and tempeh bacon. Although the coconut bacon is very good as well.
