History[]

The first Cosmo restaurant opened in Eastbourne in 2003.[3] Between 2003 and June 2012 Cosmo opened in Bristol, Chatham, Coventry, Croydon, Margate, Romford, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Wolverhampton, and Swansea. A branch opened in Croydon in November 2011, and at the time was Britain's biggest restaurant, with a seating capacity of 800.[citation needed] In July 2012, Cosmo opened restaurants in Reading, Aberdeen and Belfast.[citation needed]

In 2015, Cosmo was officially voted third in the CGA Peach Brand Track Survey for "Customer Satisfaction" and 2nd for "Value for Money".[citation needed] In 2016, it opened restaurants in Oxford, Dublin and Southampton. Its branch in Oxford won very positive reviews. The Oxford Mail said: "Cosmo definitely has the wow factor" (June 23, 2016)[citation needed] while monthly glossy OX Magazine said: "There is serious fun and genuinely great food to be had" (August 2016)[citation needed].
