Friendly staff. Simple food choices. Drinks were okay, overpriced.
Decent food for planetarium visitors! Even gluten free options

The atmosphere is clean and inviting, making it a pleasant place to dine. The cafe itself is spacious, yet it is not typically overcrowded, which allows for a more relaxed dining experience.

Cosmic Cafe offers a delightful dining experience with stunning views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. Guests have enjoyed a variety of menu items, including the Cubano, Fried Chicken, Chicken Bacon Swiss, roasted veggie sandwich, and southwest salad, noting that the food is flavorful and well-prepared. Many find the pricing reasonable, especially given the location inside the planetarium, although some portions seem small for the cost. The cafe also features a selection of baked goods, cold items, and a coffee and donut combo for $6. While the service is friendly and the area is clean, there are some limitations on re-entry to the deck. Overall, Cosmic Cafe is a popular choice for those looking to enjoy good food and beautiful views, making it a spot worth revisiting.
