Cosmic Coyote started out as a class project in culinary school, during 2015, where Morgan "Mo" Nelson and Daniel Hoffelmeyer met. Together they created and designed a business plan for a food truck. For 8 years after culinary school, they continued to work in various well-known local restaurants and hospitality programs. Then in 2023, they finally bought a food truck and started overhauling it to fit their needs.

 

During this time, Daniel partnered with Zach Nichols from Cellar West Brewery and started Cosmic Coyote as an unassuming hot dog cart selling artisan Sausages, Pretzels w/ Beer Cheese, Salads and House-Spun Ice cream to hungry patrons at the brewery.

 

As Cosmic became busier, it was time to increase the kitchen size and capabilities. Zach and Daniel brought Mo on as a partner and used the new food truck to grow. With the new equipment, they could expand their menu adding the our ever-popular Butter Burger, rotating sandwiches, Garlic Fries, and Beignets with a focus on local, seasonal, and made-from-scratch ingredients.
