Hakata Ramen + Bar in Southwark

Escondido en una calle lateral, este lugar ofrece algunos de los mejores ramen que se puede comer en el Reino Unido. Garantizado que disfrutará de su comida. El entorno y el ambiente íntimo lo convierten en un lugar ideal para llevar a su pareja o amigos para una auténtica comida de estilo japonés.

Un placer absoluto. El ambiente acogedor hizo que un entorno perfecto para relajarse, y el personal era acogedor y atento. Pedí el favorito del personal y no me decepcionó: el rico y sabroso caldo combinado con carne de jugo y fideos perfectamente cocinados era el cielo. Cada bocado fue una experiencia reconfortante y bien equilibrada. Si usted está buscando una comida cálida y satisfactoria, este lugar definitivamente vale la pena una visita!

Been here third time in past few weeks -have tried most stuff and have to say that the soy-ginger pork ribs are the best! Packed with flavour and texture, is alone worth a trip. The sandwiches, edamame, ramen (must order eggs with it), aubergine karage, tofu stuff, everything is delicious and satisfying. Plus it’s affordable for London. Anyways a walk-in and swift service throughout means the waiting times are minimal too.

Super yummy! Gluten free & vegan also possible.

They have a winter menu going on which had a vegan aubergine katsu curry ramen. It was delicious! Highly recommend and would surely like to go back!

Absolutely positive surprise. Food delicious, service friendly, ambience still has room for improvement 😉. Great value for money for London.

The ramen are so good, I also highly recommend the sandwich as starter but be careful they delicous and massive.

One of the best restaurants in London in terms of quality and price. Gets a bit crowded and not much space between seats but still worth it!

Had the best ribs of my life last Sunday. You must try the soy sauce pork ribs if you in any way like crispy red meat. Not sure how they did it but itnwas everything I want in a cooked meat. Also recommend the chicken katsu sando. Easily would've eaten another plate if I wasn't so stuffed. Friends enjoyed the chicken katsu ramen as well.

As we entered, we were greeted warmly and promptly learnt that the wait was roughly ½hour and we were kindly asked if that works for us. We said yes, we were handed a buzzer and were allowed to go downstairs to the bar to wait. The bar had quite a wait as there was one person doing both the cashing and serving of drinks so it took a while. We ordered the Asian Silk cocktail, which was delicious and our wait was actually 40minutes but the drink made us feel nice so it didn't quite occur to us that so much time went by. There are a lot of shared tables so if you're there with one other person you can end up on a table with 4 other people and not just seating for two, please keep that in mind if you're more introverted. The service was very friendly and the chicken Gyoza was delicious. We ordered the Spicy Miso Ramen, my husband took chicken and I took Pork as our meat. The broth was ABSOLUTELY immaculate. The noodles needed more time to soften as they were not quite al dente but a state a little before it, it could be because we went on a Friday and the place was absolutely crowded. The Ramen was yummy and the other ingredients nothing to scream about, although the eggs were cooked perfectly but for me that broth alone was to DIE for!

Chicken Karaage was okay and tasted decent. We ordered Katsu Curry Ramen and Tonkotsu Ramen also, which I would not recommend at all. The both soup were just tasteless as if no seasonings were added - I can hardly believe the broth was cooked for 12 hours as the menu description says, and not even proper Ramen noodle was used… I wouldn’t say their Ramen is authentic, rather far from it… It’s shame as the restaurant atmosphere is really nice.

I went to eat ramen, but it was a bar. There were a lot of people and the noisy atmosphere was nice. Ramen is really delicious. If it weren't for my child, I would have drank beer and played more. The price was too much to spend after just eating ramen.

The chicken wings have a weird smell The classical ramen has a tasteless and watery broth, mediocre quality

Very cool underground-y vibe! Has a lovely bar/ waiting area in the basement. The Aubergine Katsu Sando and Kumamoto (the burnt garlic was excellent) are a must try if you like vegan food!

I recently visited Hakata Ramen Bar in Bermondsey, and overall, it was a good experience. The ramen itself was delicious—rich, flavorful broth, well-cooked noodles, and fresh toppings. However, while the service was friendly, we felt quite rushed. The staff brought us the bill without asking, which made us feel like we needed to leave quickly rather than enjoy our meal at our own pace. It would have been nice to have a bit more time to relax and savor the experience. If you’re looking for a quick and tasty ramen fix, this spot is worth a visit, but don’t expect a leisurely dining experience.

Really delicious ramen and some of the best prawn gyoza I've ever had. The staff were lovely and attentive and proactively moved us from the counter to a table by the window when one came available before our food had arrived. Perfect meal on a grey day in London, will definitely go again!

Fantastic spot for lunch with a great team serving up a delicious menu. The best gyoza I’ve ever had and don’t see that changing any time soon. Recommend the rice lager and the spicy tonkatsu ramen

Came here for Saturday lunch at a little bit past 12 and was seated immediately. Delicious food and friendly service. I ordered the pork katsu ramen (winter special) and aubergine karaage - highly recommend both, particularly the aubergine. Also ordered green tea. Approximately £20 for food, £24 including tea, reasonable for the location and quality of food.

I loved the tamago eggs, their marinade is really succulent. The broth is good, the quantities generous, and suitable for a quick lunch. Smiling and careful service. Super cute street to complete with dessert elsewhere.

"Nah, That’s Not Japanese" We had the pork buns for starters.. Sadly they were pork-flavored bubblegum wrapped in a soggy blanket of regret. And the sauce? Let’s just say it was there but refused to introduce itself. Then we ordered the ramen. Oh, the ramen. It’s hard to mess up comfort food, but this place nailed it—in the worst way possible. Picture semi-cooked noodles taking a sad bath in salt water. No broth, no depth, no soul. Oh and The waitstaff. Efficient, yes, but only because they were racing to eject me and my friend as soon as we finished our meal. I have seen speed dating events last longer than a meal here. Skip this disaster. Your stomach and your sanity will thank you

Enjoyable place, good ramen and friendly staff!

Best vegan ramen I have ever had. Go for the vegan tonkotsu. Not sure how they do the broth without any bones but was unreal

Vegan spicy ramen is amazing, perfect for winter. We also had their vegan aubergine katsu curry bun which was perfectly spiced. The only issue is waiting times and how crammed the seating is. You can ask for a seat at the bar or near the window once they clear up if you’re willing to wait outside, they don’t let you walk around whilst waiting which is annoying

Top notch! Food and service are excelent!!

A fantastic venue with delicious food and efficient and attentive staff. The menu is detailed and accommodates lots of different dietary needs and customisation to add or subtract from your bowl. And when the food arrives it is wonderful. Hot and rich with a lot of savoury flavours. When it is at its busiest it can be a little overwhelming with so much noise and people crammed into a small space. But otherwise, flawless.

We left all the dishes empty! That much we didn’t liked the food… 😂 Wonderful place and amazing ramen. We had spicy miso with mushrooms and chicken. I also recommend the rice lager 🍺. Fabulously relishes everything! Don’t miss that wonderful place! ♥️🤩👌

It's the second time I've been back (despite not living in London). All very good. Friendly and helpful staff.

Nothing worst than not having a piping hot bowl of noodle soup come out, Luke warm ramen didn’t hit the spot unfortunately. Ribs were quite tough lack seasoning

Excellent ramen bar. The restaurant is small and the seating is a bit tight and not exactly exactly comfortable. Our group of 6 had to wait for nearly 20m to be seated but it was worth it. The service was friendly and quick and the food was flavorful. The spicy edamame was a great starter and we absolutely loved the pork katsu curry ramen. We got the Orbit Hakata red ale to go with the meal and it was nice. Will plan to revisit if we can.

It was my last meal on my trip to England, so I went to try some ramen with hot soup. I thought there would be a lot of Asians, but oh my... I guess it's a local restaurant, but there seemed to be less than 5 Asians, including us. The ramen was delicious and I was worried because it had a porky smell, but my husband said it was delicious. (My husband ate a lot of ramen in Japan, so I think he's used to the thick taste.) I ate spicy chicken, and it was spicy and delicious, like eating beef jerky. The karaage was just so-so. The atmosphere was like a bar, so there were a lot of people and it was very noisy.

If you're looking for a dining experience that will truly transport your taste buds, Hakata Ramen + Bar is the place to be! From the moment we arrived, it was clear we were in for a treat. We started with an amazing selection of cocktails, including the refreshing Geisha, which set the perfect tone for the evening. The starters were equally incredible: the BBQ corn ribs had just the right smoky-sweet flavor, the aubergine was beautifully cooked, the chicken wings were perfectly crispy and flavorful, and the prawn gyozas were tender with a satisfying bite. For the main event, we indulged in two bowls of Tonkotsu Ramen—one with melt-in-your-mouth pork and the other a rich and hearty vegan option. Both were absolutely phenomenal! The depth of flavor in the broth, the perfectly cooked noodles, and the fresh toppings came together in a way that felt like a warm, comforting hug. If you’re in need of a treat, make this your next stop. Hakata Ramen + Bar is an experience not to be missed. Get there quick!

Delicious, quick, just a small downside due to the noise. But you have to come. Too good

Fantastic ramen at fair prices. It's quite popular for good reason.

After a long day of traveling and walking around Tower Bridge area the family was exhausted and in need for some serious delicious food! My daughter picked this place because she is a big fan of Ramen and oh my the place didn't disappoint. We waited maybe a couple minutes but the service was amazing very helpful, quick and accommodating! We got spicy miso Ramen as well as the chicken Katsu Ramen and some chicken Gyoza. So filling and so delicious!! Definitely recommend them!

Last night, me and my cousin had Kumamoto which was filled with full of flavour, along with some prawn gyoza, chicken karaage with yuzu kosho mayo, Aubergine Karaage with Japanese BBQ sauce and finally mocktail for the drinks. Let me tell you all, this place is 100% worth to go out and eat with friends and family. The staffs are so helpful and friendly. There is also a bar downstair to have a nice drink and the atmosphere is also pretty cozy too. I highly recommend to check out this place.

We really enjoyed our visit here. Food was excellent and it was a busy, but fun atmosphere. Also, the gluten free options were great.

Cozy, nice vibes, friendly stuff and yummy food n drinks. 10/10 def will come back ^^

Wife selection of food, quickly prepared and reasonably priced. Can get busy!

Best ramen I’ve had in a long time.

Mouth-watering ramen and perfect for the cold Xmas days in London ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Finding GF Asian cuisine is rare, especially ramen - but this place had an entirely separate GF menu and the GF ramen was delicious!

Good ramen for a decent price. Would definitely recommend, although the place can get quite noisy when busy.

Grat place with proper Ramen, cocktails were good and the service was excellent.

Very friendly staff Jules in particular was nice and attentive. The food was also great and quick service defo recommend

Food was amazing, I have been to this place for few times, it never fails, got the same taste, which was amazing. All food are good but fried Aubergine is highly recommended. All team members are very friendly. it was good that they have place to hang our coat/ jacket.

Exceptional Service at Hakata Ramen + Bar During my recent visit to Hakata Ramen + Bar, I was thoroughly impressed by the outstanding service provided by Tinzal and Nay. Their warm hospitality and attentive care significantly enhanced my dining experience. The ramen was delicious, and the ambiance was inviting. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking authentic ramen in a welcoming environment.

Amazing. Super tasty food and friendly staff. Also they have gluten free options that are good and tasty as well.

This place is popular and busy. Ramen was perfectly cooked and vegan tonkotsu was rich however a tad on the salty side. The sides were nice. Well worth a visit if you like ramen. The price is very reasonable.

We visited on a Saturday lunchtime, and the restaurant was nearly full. A line started forming outside, even though the basement floor remained closed. The dining area felt quite cramped, especially with winter jackets taking up extra space. The ramen was good, though not extraordinary, but the chicken wing starter was a standout—highly recommended and absolutely delicious. For three people, with no alcohol, four starters, and one ramen each, the bill came to approximately £28 per person. Overall, I’d recommend this place, though it’s best to visit during quieter times for a more comfortable experience.

One of my favourite ramen places, I can't wait to go back. So yummy! It is a walk-in place, and it is always busy, however you don't need to wait outside or in a queue, you can enjoy a very nice cocktail in the bar downstairs. The service is great, very kind and helpfull. Highly recommended!

Everything was delicious! Quick service and nice vibe overall. Will be going again 🍜

Second time coming here and it was fantastic! I highly recommend this place to anyone whether you’re a local or visiting. If Mimi is your hostess, you’re in such good hands! She has a very warm smile and is always checking in.

Knock out ramen and a carafe of sake. What more is there to say.

Delicious ramen and great atmosphere!

Food was ok and nice atmosphere inside. The waitress rushed us out though just as we had finished our meal. My friend was told NO DESSERT and NO DRINKS, we were rushed downstairs to finish our wine. Kinda ruined our experience

I had a ramen soup at Hakata and really enjoyed it! The broth was well-balanced, with great flavors, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. I tried the vegan ramen, and it was absolutely delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back again!

Food was great and came out fairly quick. I had the Shoyu with pork and shiitaku mushroom broth. Tasted great and it wasn't too big. Sparkling water was only £1.50 for a big bottle, good value. Even though there was a small wait to get in (~10mins) the service was really quick and the staff really attentive. Would recommend.

Service was very attentive & fast. Food is good, except Ribs soy garlic was caramelised which wasn't mentioned on the menu. It gets busy from 6pm. Tables are sharing.

The best ramen place for us, we love coming here every time we are in London, sometimes we go out of our way just to have lunch or dinner here. Great selection of both meat and vegan ramen, amazing sides, good selection of drinks. The staff is always polite and fast, and the reward card gives you a free ramen every once in a while, so bonus! I wish I had pictures to show, but usually we don't waste time taking pictures, we just focus on the food in front of us!

Tried the winter katsu curry ramen special- it was great and very filling! Same with the katsu bao. Great place for quick food, and it’s quite lively and busy. Staff were really nice as well

I had the spicy chicken ramen, which was delicious with a rich, flavourful mushroom broth. The chicken karaage Hirata was perfectly crispy and delightful. I would definitely return.

Quick turnarounds and nice atmosphere. Mediocre ramen. Tonkotsu fine, but you can get better elsewhere. Katsu ramen is an unpleasant, overly pumpkiny gimmick.

Really stylish Ramen place. Good, solid menu choice and friendly and efficient service. Food was delicious. Would visit again!

Good service, good food and for a really reasonable price (about 12- 14 for ramen). Only downside is it can get a bit loud.

Great food, value for money and friendly staff

Very nice ramen. Tasty hot broth and perfect noodles. Would recommend. Slightly off the beaten track

The best place to eat ramen in the area! Food is delicious and stuff is very friendly and the atmosphere is great. Can be a little too loud sometimes in the evenings.

One of the best ramens in London with a very reasonable price and delicious food.

Highly recommended to try deep fried aubergines with barbecue sauce. It’s very crispy and tasty 🤤 Ramen soup tastes like I ate in Japan 🇯🇵

Best ramen in town and no reservations. You will start paying monthly visits after the first try.

This may be the best ramen I've ever had in London - not exaggerating! The tonkotsu was amazing and the bone broth delicious. The unlimited tea top ups is a nice touch. Can't wait to return!

If you’re looking for good food, quick service and plenty of vegetarian and vegan options this is a great place. We’ve been here many times and it’s become our favourite ramen place. It’s always busy and whilst you can’t reserve table it’s pretty quick turnaround.

Lovely food as always! The ramen was rich and creamy, the Takoyaki were perfect. There is never enough octopus but it's ok. The service was good and fast, we did ask to wait to serve the ramen as we wanted to enjoy the starter first without having to rush but that did not happen. Their tea with lemongrass was to die for!!! Omg I have never tasted something more flavourful and amazing!!

What great food, the aubergine karage was insane, a friend recommended and worth the order. Quantity of food is very good for London standards. And the staff is lovely. However, a bit in a hurry some of them.

Decent ramen bar. Good flavour to broth.

Still dreaming about the food from Hakata Ramen!!! This was kid friendly, delicious, and fairly priced. The chicken katsu curry ramen is next level!!! I’m still craving it. My 7 year old ate 2 servings of the soy garlic wings. They were so crispy and even came with a bowl of lemon water to wash your hands. My other 2 kids had miso ramen and for the first time finished their bowls! I also highly recommend the gochujang corn ribs and chicken katsu bao buns🤤 The service was impeccable! We plan on visiting again before the end of our holiday!

Die Rahmensuppen sind alle sehr gut und preislich in Ordnung. Der Service ist sehr nett und schnell. Das Restaurant ist klein und nett.

I think about the vegan miso soup every day, can't wait to go back again. These guys know how to cook!

Decent ramen for the price. Love that noodles are left hard as standard. Broth needs more work, but not bad!

Had the best time with the best food! I especially loved their pork ramen.

Booking isn't possible here. As a pair we only had to wait for about 5 minutes outside to get a table. Busy and bustling room, with some shared tables and smaller ones. Simple menu with a variety of ramen (including) vegan options and starters. Had the Tonkotsu ramen which was rich and flavourfull. Hirata and gyoza were tasty. Lively atmosphere and prompt service. Not a long evening sort of service. Good value for money.

It was a good place with a good food quality but not a food to say wow what a extraordinary taste and experience

We popped into Hakata Ramen + Bar for a quick dinner and it did not disappoint. For starters, we had the vegetable gyoza and the chicken gyoza. We each ordered ramen for our mains. Everything was delicious. The service was great and the food came out very quickly. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a good local ramen joint.

Great place. Ramen 🍜 is quite good. I've tried both pork and chicken with the chicken beeing my favorite. The Bao buns where amazing and the chicken wings spicy 🔥 hot if that is your cup of tea. All in all tasty food and a lively place so much so that my friends that went ended up going there with their wifes. They also have a bar in the basement with all kind of beer. You must try the rice one it is really good. Be aware that there is no booking and you might have to wait at the entrance but every time I've went we did not wait more.rhen 15. I would say it's worth it.

Best ramen I’ve ever had! Favourite restaurant in London

Finally, a decent gluten free ramen place in London! Hakata makes delicious ramen in a variety of vegan and non-vegan broths, that can be modified to suit gluten free diets when you swap for shirataki noodles. Although I would prefer more 'dense' noodles, the broth and toppings more than make up for it. I really enjoyed the Miso broth that I ordered! The interior is also very intimate, and stylish. Great for dates, or catching up with a few friends! Not pictured but absolutely incredible: the soy garlic chicken wings!

Our go to spot for ramen in central London. It’s cheap and tasty. Just be prepared to wait as there’s always a long queue.

Delicious ramen restaurant. Welcome by staff...and a big drum beat. Quivk setvice and a tasty one ...with tea is one of the best ramen tasted in UK. Would highly recommend a visit, even though a bit on the dear side for a noodle dish.

Every item of food we received was quite frankly spectacular, every bite danced across my taste buds. Not only was the food we received exceptional, but the lovely people who cared for us were unforgettable to say the least. Cheers to a perfect night, I would recommend to a friend and would love to come again.

The foods is good but the service one of their member staff cleaning and getting our plate while one of our friend eating its like un respectful she is in hurry to clean our space.

I usually try to keep focused on the positives but today I feel the need to be honest in this review. Rating this restaurant an overall 3 star because the service of the members of staff are disrespectful. My husband is still eating when they are already clearing the table and didn’t even ask us if we’ve already finish. They just instantly take all the plates/bowls/cutleries away. Food and prices are fair enough for me, nothing special.

It is a Lovely and quaint place, with quick service and attentive staff. We tried The Vegan and The Pork Bellt Ramen, which were really rich and tasty. Will definitely be back.

Delicious ramen. This is a spot to grab food quickly though, it's walk ins so they expect a quick turnaround

The broth had deep umami flavor but a tad salty, it was enjoyable and affordable and recommend it for a quick meal before the theater!

I've been here so many times over the past couple months and it is literally THE BEST RAMEN. I love this place and will be visiting it tonnes more

A wonderful experience! Very accommodating with kids. Wonderful service! Great food!!! Thank you

One of my favourite Ramen bars, mainly for their large selection of vegan options.

Very tasty ramen, less busy than usual. Overall a good place

Great tasting ramen with a good choice of sides. The staff were attentive and friendly. The menu is reasonably priced considering the location. Would recommend it

Comida deliciosa y personal muy amable y sonriente. Mi amigo y yo estábamos muy contentos con el servicio, y a través de disfrutar de la comida y bebida. Sin duda recomendaría probar su ramen ‘Hakata Tonkotsu’, así como el pollo / cerdo gyoza para empezar. delicioso!
