Perfect - Edit
Was going to rate it 5/5 based on vibes alone but decided to wait to taste everything and it’s even better than I imagined. So friendly! The whole menu looks incredible. Got “The Bourbon and the Bird” with onion rings - super filling and so delicious! Great portions for the money. Will definitely be back.

Best vegan chicken sandwich - Edit
A good vegan chicken sandwich is hard to come by. Stumbled on this place during a work trip and had the best vegan chicken sandwich ever.

They know what they are doing, and do it well. - Edit
Delicious vegan food in a nice simple space.
Read moreThe seitan-based faux chicken is done very well with a crispy coating while avoiding being oily. That's a great combination. The sauces and toppings complete the sandwiches wonderfully well.
Pros: Everything is vegan, Faux chicken is on point, Toppings/sauces are great

Absolute Must - Like a Vegan KFC - Edit
Mouth-watering food and incredible service! My friend and I were visiting from out of town and the owner gave us extra sides in addition to our O.G. Chick'n Sandwiches for no charge. He also let us stay slightly later than closing time so we could really take our time and enjoy the insanely crispy yet juicy burgers and the scrumptious potato salad, japanese veggies, and creole mac n cheese. I'm dreaming of the food now that we're gone. If you're visiting from out of town you HAVE to try their chick'n to truly get a taste of Kentucky.
Read morePros: Exquisitely cooked food, Really kind, local staff and owner, Really varied menu/sides, more than just burgers
Cons: None

Amazing! - Edit
We’ve eaten vegan chicken sandwich’s all over the US and these were the best! The service was top notch, and the fries have no right to be as good as they are lol.

Great food, greater vibes - Edit
They make their own seitan in house and fry it up to perfection! Portions are large, they’ve got a great patio out back, the owners are great to talk to and seem like really cool people. Don’t sleep on this one, go hang out and have a few, but maybe wear elastic waist pants when you do 😉

The best vegan chicken sandwich! - Edit
Definitely stop in to Cosmic Bird if you’re anywhere near Louisville. They’re entirely plant based and their chicken sandwiches are the best I’ve ever had. They have unique sandwich builds and each one I’ve had is delicious. Stop by and support this small business!

What are you looking for? Flavor? Crunch? Filling? Check, check, check. Cosmic Bird is bringing back the game to vegan restaurants in Louisville. Always on track with great choices and new ideas. Tried the Razzy today-ever had fried cheese on a v-burger and delicious ranchy bbq sauce? OMG. Go do it.

Best vegan chicken - Edit
I LOVE Cosmic Bird. He makes of the best chicken "fauxlty" sandwiches I've ever had. I was also able to try his gyro, which was also great. Vegan junk food at its finest! Prices are also great and the owner is so nice!

All vegan, all good! - Edit
I was so happy to finally make it here. The official opening is 01.12.24. Good location. Casual dining. Didn't try, but they have a Grab + Go Case as well. What I had was so good. Everyone here is so nice and welcoming. They have a table set up for Butterfly Valley Rescue & Sanctuary where I got to meet the owners.

Great food! Friendly staff! - Edit
We stopped in the new vegan restaurant on our way through Louisville. The owner makes a great chick’n sandwich (I had the O. G.). My husband had the Cosmic Breakfast Burrito. The burrito had a little heat and was very flavorful. We loved both of them!
Read moreWe had a chance to chat with the owner during our visit. He just moved into the brick and mortar location around October 2023. There are plans to have live music and other events at the restaurant in the future.
