"As a Benton county native, I was excited to introduce my husband to a fun quaint local business. As a longtime Electric cooperative employee, I was thrilled to try a Best of Rural Missouri awarded eatery. Upon entry, we were prompted to seat ourselves, but waited an inordinate amount of time for menus to be brought. Cosmic Cafe 's menu looked eclectic yummy, but some items wereunavailable the waitress didn 't offer the slightest apology. In fact, we seemed like a hassle to her. My husband 's panini was only lukewarm the lunchmeat was so tough gristly he could barely chew it. We waited for our ticket, but it never came we weren 't sure if we were to go up to the counter to request it or not, so we did got the heck out. A couple who was entering as we were walking out was turned away because the cafe was purportedly closing. It was 1:40pm. Google said the closing time was 3pm. Staff was putting chairs atop tables as we were eating. Didn 't lend a welcoming vibe. Extremely disappointed."
