Founded in Hakata on Japan’s Kyushu island, this international operation believes ‘ramen is a cosmos created in a bowl’: clearly these guys are serious about noodles. This third London branch, following sites in Canary Wharf and Covent Garden, sticks to the blueprint, offering Ippudo’s signature ramen-noodle bowls, with toppings including the melt-in-your-moth pork belly and marinated eggs. Be sure to try the branch's exclusive Hakata Niku Ton with additional poached egg. Other menu highlights include Hirata Buns and a variety of rice bowls (with pork, chicken, or Japanese wagyu beef).
