Kokura

About Kokura

Kokura brings proper Japanese comfort food to Bermondsey at prices that make it a smart family pick near Waterloo and the Young Vic. The karaage chicken gets near-constant praise — "crispy, succulent, flavourful" and worth ordering twice, served with yuzu mayo that most adore. Ramen runs from a reliable chicken broth to the standout Tom Yum with pork, which reviewers call "the best pork broth ramen I've ever tasted" for its exceptional balance. The abura soupless ramen surprises with its light, refreshing sauce, while rice bowls like the pork chashu don offer tender meat at wallet-friendly prices. Highchairs fit easily in the cosy, canteen-style space. Regulars appreciate the short, focused menu and note the genuinely friendly staff atmosphere. Best for a pre-theatre bite or casual lunch where everyone can find something they'll finish.
