It's really unfortunate that this place is closing soon. One of the things I loved about it was being able to order food from the side window -- gave it a cool little drive-thru vibe that was super convenient. Sadly, the landowners decided it was too much of a liability, so that's no longer an option. I truly wish this spot was sticking around longer because the sandwiches here are absolutely delicious. Everything is strictly vegan, but honestly, it's enjoyable for everyone -- whether you're vegan or not. The flavors and quality really stand out. The shop itself is small and quiet, with a cozy atmosphere. They also offer some great health food goodies and fresh produce, making it a nice one-stop for a quick meal and some wholesome snacks. Parking is available, which is always a plus. If you're interested, don't wait too long -- they're closing at the end of June. Please give this place a try before it's gone! read more

Stopped by Cosmic Café in Haleiwa while I was waiting for the farmers market to open up--figured I'd grab a bite. Naomi was my chef today fun fact, she also works part time at Ka'ala Kitchen. I got the rainbow sandwich on sourdough with dynamite aioli (soo good), plus a potato salad and hibiscus nettle tea, no sugar. Fresh, tasty, and just what I needed--love that their menu got a refresh too. read more

Came in on a friend's recommendation based on yelp reviews and heading into the area but they too have never been here. At first we weren't sure if they were still open because we didn't know they were located inside a health food store. They have an everyday menu and specials menu and I ordered the Banh Mi burger with garlic aoli and the dynamite sauce. My friend ordered the BTLAT sandwich. I didn't have much expectations as I have had so much overly priced bland vegan food but this was one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Everything is fresh and it's so flavorful. My friend had the same experience with their samdwich. We both felt satisfied and full, will definitely come back read more

Amazing flavours. Great sandwiches. Hole in the wall place offering yummy smoothies and sandwiches.

Unforgettable, my friends call me from Mainland and out of USA with memories of their meals from there. got a huge five day take-out order from them once just couldn't get enough. Everything is amazing,powerful flavors. All healthy! read more

So ono. Love this spot! The food and drinks are made to order. Be ready for a slight wait but it's worth it! For each food item you can typically opt for sandwich (pick your bread) or bowl ($3 more). And if you're indecisive about sauces, you can pick 2! Can't go wrong with any combination of choices. read more

So sad there's no more eggless sandwich so I had to make my own similar. I got the breakfast sandwich and skipped the cheese, added avocado, and onions. This is literally my favorite place to get a huge filling vegan sandwich on the island. I hope they bring back the eggless sandwich!! Call ahead to make an order or order online since it does take time to make it. This place is always my go to spot when going north shore. Tip: don't forget to ask for napkins and a knife to cut your sandwich! It gets messy but it's delicious. 100% worth it read more

We read the reviews on yelp and started the quest to find The Cosmic Kitchen- it was not easy - tucked in an alley. Found it - a small colorful order window. The staff was helpful in fine tuning our order. - a Local Organic Tofu Breakfast- fine tuned to our like - as a rice bowl with coconut "bacon" on top with an aioli Dynamo sauce and a small salad on the side plus A Tofu and vegetable Musubi. As we were waiting we were wondering if we did the right thing coming here. That all changed once we tasted it it was absolutely amazing So glad we came read more

FINALLY made it down to Haleiwa so we could treat ourselves to 'The Cosmic Kitchen'! It was our first time and definitely won't be our last. GUYS, we got the 'The acai heaven' with peanut butter smoothie and it tasted like a perfect marriage between both flavors. My wife swears its her new favorite combination. Do yourself a favor! Go find this secret little hole in the wall (well more like wall in an alley) and get yourself their "Kalua Jack" sandwich with garlic aioli. It was savory and creamy! With alot of pickled onions! This one packed alot of flavor. I only wish it had been bigger! We also shared their "B.L.A.T." with pesto aioli. This one was the more mild out if the two flavor wise. But it tasted extremely fresh and light. Despite being completely packed with creamy avocado. We got ours with tempeh! And like i said, wish it was bigger. Not to say the sandwiches were small! They were just so tasty we ate them kinda fast! We're curious about those other sandwiches and offerings. So we'll be back around to get another bite soon read more

I love this place so much! I eat there at least once a week if not two - three times! Everything is vegan/plant-based, so there's no worries about any of the food being contaminated with animal products. They're quite health conscious and their ingredient choices compared to most other places and everything tastes amazing! They have their everyday regular menu, which I love the Kalua Jack and the breakfast sandwich with mushroom sausage the most. You can make any of the sandwiches into salad bowls or rice bowls or half salad/half rice. Then they have daily specials that you can call in or see on the specials menu when you visit. They have smoothies, cold special drinks, sweet treats and a daily soup as well! You can order at their window inside of celestial grocery store, or at the window on the side of the building. There are a couple / few small tables outside to sit at when it's clear skies. Lastly, they are part of the Full Cycle Takeout program where you can order a reusable to go container with your food and return it later to avoid using the disposable to go containers. How it works: 1) Order your meal and need to go container with cosmic, 2) an account with full cycle takeout 3) Find restaurant, choose cosmic 4) take out however many to go containers your meal requires 5) When you're done with it, return it within 10 days to the return station outside of cosmic's order window. To return: scan the QR code on the return station, tap the website, tap return reusables and select the number your returning. Once returned in the system, place the to go container in the slot of the return box. Super easy! Parking is behind beatbox/usps. read more

Best hole in the wall takeaway around... Literally - it's a hole in the wall down a lane between two buildings in Haleiwa town. But you know... I regularly have to make the drive from town to Haleiwa just to have the BLAT!!! The coconut bacon is sooooo good! I have mine on the sprouted bread with the creamy aioli sauce. Fast, friendly service - delicious healthy food!!! read more

This place is easy to miss. The walk-up window is on a one-way exit alley. Look for the chalk Cosmic Kitchen sign. Once you find it, you'll be happy you did. The flavors were spot on. Sandwiches were filling. Everything tastes very homemade, I'm sure they were. Worth stopping by if you are in the area read more

I was confused trying to find this place, it's in the alley. Got a "tuna" sandwich. A bit pricey but super tasty. Great friendly service, I came around 2pm so a few things on the menu were sold out. It was not crazy busy on a weekday. We originally stopped for the food trucks but I wanted some vegan food. This place definitely has great foods! read more

I tried the tuna melt (vegan) and it was so good. Pickled onions, coconut bacon and more just made this chickpea patty the perfect sandwich! My sister had the tempeh bacon BLAT and really liked it! She said it had good flavor and a nice texture. It was thinly sliced tempeh which is different from tempeh that I'm used to. The outside window is kind of hard to find and the inside entrance is tucked into Celestial Natural Foods. Be sure to stand on the side as you're waiting since it's an exit for the parking lot behind. Definitely coming back here again :) read more

Best Vegan Musubi ever! We tried their Musubi, 2 sandwiches: Tunaless & BLAT with coconut bacon. Everything tasted amazing. I would have to say my favorite was the vegan musubi and the tunaless sandwich. A bit of await but I think they were having some electric issues today, not their fault. Ladies were wonderful and helpful when servicing. read more

Hidden gem in Haleiwa-- vegan sandwiches (and drinks/smoothies). You can order online but there are more choices if you order in person. It is a bit hidden down an alley, nearby to BeetBox and the Post Office (park in the lot here). We got the bbq sandwich and the tunaless chickpea sandwich; both were quite good and prices are decent. You get to choose your aioli sauce; we did the garlic+dynamite= little spicy kick and good garlic flavor, and the pesto+garlic. read more

Hidden gem in the area. My wife's favorite food on the island by far. The daily special was a zucchini burger and it was actually very good. The kalua jack burger was good too. We got the daily hot soup and that was super fresh and amazing. Seating is **very** limited but it's a cute little spot and we'll be sure to drop by to try their other specials when we're in the area. UPDATE: We went back and service and food were amazing again. We got their daily special which was a kale and spinach patty burger and it was like biting into fresh ground veggies. It tasted better than it sounds. They make everything fresh per order so that's another awesome thing about this place. read more

The best sandwich shop ever! And it just happens to be vegan. Sensational nutritious and delicious sandwiches. They also stick the cutest stickers in them.

I would happily turn vegan if I ate food like the sandwiches we just tried from Cosmic Kitchen every day! Perfect meal after running around North Beach. All the ingredients were on point and meshed well together. Egg Salad Sandwich -- The fake bacon was incredible, arguably better than real bacon because it didn't become a greasy lump in your stomach. The fake eggs were similarly delicious and even had an egg-y texture. Highly recommend ordering this one with ciabatta bread, as well as garlic and pesto sauce. The one thing is that the sandwich comes with a lot of lettuce. We picked out a solid layer before we could bite into this sandwich properly. Even after we did this, a bunch of egg salad still fell out from the back. Messy, but worth it... and worked out well because we used the lettuce that we initially removed to eat the egg salad bits (almost like an additional lettuce roll app). Broccoli Burger special -- The guy at the cashier said the specials go fast. Between the two, this looked the tastiest and did not disappoint. Creamy Butternut Squash Bisque -- Yum yum yummmm. Actually, this soup tasted great with each bite of the broccoli burger. We were completely satiated after this meal. While I had only been laying out on the beach, my husband had been surfing for a few hours and was starving. These two sandwiches and the soup totally filled him right up! There's NO sign on a building for Cosmic Kitchen. You have to go through Celestial Natural Foods and Cosmic Kitchen is in the back. Unfortunately there's no dedicated parking, so if you're with other people, I recommend someone stay with the car while another person goes in to order. read more

SO DELICIOUS. Great sauces, and they FILL your sandwich with ingredients, definitely not skimpy on the condiments nor veggies. I had a tuna-less melt on gluten free bread, and I highly recommend you coming here-even if you're not vegan. My boyfriend is a meat eater, and thoroughly enjoyed his tunaless melt. We will definitely be coming back! Nice outdoor seating in the shade. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Food comes out quick, and correctly. read more

Wanted to try this small business out bc of their reviews but unfortunately I guess the flavor of their food/drinks just weren't within my palette & definitely not for my taste buds. This place may be for everybody else but not for me. I got the scrambled tofu & it was just too much flavor, it almost tasted like I was eating a sandwich that got perfume sprayed all over it. The color also threw me off, it was just a fluorescent yellow that looked like it was just drenched in food coloring. As to the açaí drink I got, it just tasted straight up like a peanut butter smoothie to me. Again, not for me but may be for others. read more

Heading back from a hike on the North Shore and I wanted a healthy sandwich. I ordered the "egg" salad with the garlic aioli. It was SO good. The only downside was no parking. The parking lot near the restaurant is not for the restaurant and cars are towed. So I grabbed my sandwich and drove to a nearby shopping center to eat in my car. If you are already parked and walking around, take your time and enjoy this vegan delight! read more

Called in my order for the eggless cosmic sandwich. The woman on the phone was patient and answered all my questions. I got it with dynamite and garlic aioli, on sourdough bread. Parked right in front of the post office and walked towards where I thought it would be. A little hidden spot which I couldn't find at first. I went down the alley between the two buildings with no luck at an open window. Decided to go into the natural foods store and voila! The ordering counter was in the back right with a few people waiting. Got my sandwich quick. Eggless mix didn't have much flavor but the rest of the toppings really helped. Each aioli sauce was perfect compliments to the eggless mixture. And those coconut shreds were so tasty. It was like teriyaki dehydrated coconut. Still had coconut flavor but not overpowering. Nice crunch too! A great place to try on the north side for those not wanting to eat meat. read more

So glad I found this gem! Was super stoked to try and I was not disappointed. I ordered the kalua jack sandwich on sourdough with two types of aioli, as well as the limeade (forgot exactly which one). It was so so good! I will be back to try every sandwich on the menu for sure. The service was fast and the cashier was super friendly. I was worried I wasn't going to make it before closing but got there 30 minutes prior, even though it was close to closing the service wasn't rushed at all. Parking was easy as I parked in the lot by the post office and just walked on over. It's very easy to miss since you have to turn down an alley of off the main road. Such an affordable vegan option and cannot wait to go back. read more
