High quality fast food you want to eat every day.
Kernel Burger*
Ready when you are
At Kernel, we’re obsessed with giving you your food right when it’s ready. Finished moments before you eat it. When we say your food is fresh and ready, it will be.
Crispy Potatoes
Thrice is the magic number
Our Chef Neil came up with a 3-step recipe that takes a lot of work and preparation, but the result is constantly crunchy and delicious.
Cookies
These cookies don’t crumble
Our vegan cookies taste amazing. How’s that work? Chef Andrew says it’s “patience and determination in testing 100 recipes to create the best one made without eggs and butter.”
Marinated Beets
Why our beets slap
Beets can be polarizing... but we select the best ones before they’re brined in flavorful seasoning overnight. High quality vegetables prepared properly makes all the difference.
Crispy Chicken Sandwich*
No two cutlets are alike
Our Crispy Chicken sandwiches are made without chicken. Each cutlet is hand-breaded with our secret spice blend. It makes for a craggily crust that keeps every bite interesting.
Signature Veggies
We’re big on balance
Our veggie sides wouldn’t be out of place at a fancy restaurant. Our approach finds the flavor balance between savory, sweet, spice and sour.
Real Food Real Words
So delicious! Everything I hope a fried chicken to be. Pickles and slaw were amazing.
