Cosmo Burger is Now Open in the Crossroads
Cosmo Burger
The highly anticipated opening of Cosmo Burger in the Crossroads is here! The smash burger concept officially opens its doors today.
Craving Cosmo: Cosmo Burger’s second location can be found at 1815 Locust St. in the East Crossroads. It had been serving out of the Lenexa Public Market, but that spot closed in April in preparation for this new Crossroads location. The original location was launched inside Dodson’s in Waldo (7438 Wornall Road) in 2020 and will remain open.
I’ll Take the Burger: Cosmo Burger is known for its simple menu of smash burgers and tots, and the new Crossroads location serves both traditional and boozy milkshakes, cocktails, wine, and beer. Don’t miss the Pickle Margarita - tequila, pickle brine, orange liqueur, agave, and lime juice.
Get a tasty look at Cosmo Burger and all its offerings HERE.
