KOKORO - Peterborough in Peterborough

I tried the Korean chilli chicken, this place is such good value for money. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food, the portions and for the cost! Would love to come back here again. Yummy food !

Warmed the noodles in the microwave! Are you serious? two prawns is one topping! Don’t bother!

Great katsu curry and staff is wonderful

During a quiet saturday evening, invited inside by the friendly staff for a sample taste...ended up sharing the large bowl that costs around a tenner, with katsu and sweet chili chicken with curry sauce and steamed rice...perfect combo.

Staff here are so helpful. Food is lovely too

Best food, good service. ❤️❤️ can not be better

owner is so sweet and welcoming, the food is very nice one of my favourites ❤️

I'm sorry to say but this sushi was as bad as supermarket sushi, not to takeout standards at all, the rice was gooey and flavourless a real waste of money.

Thank you boss man I always enjoy a mix and match pot chicken katsu and sweet chilli chicken nom nom nom very good 😊

Stumbled upon this restaurant during one of our night strolls in Peterborough square and I’m so glad we tried it out!!! We now have a go-to place for japanese and korean food cravings! 🍱🍣🥢 We ordered the sushi/sashimi set and siomai! Indeed, everything was freshly made 👌🏼 The siomai is made with real shrimp. The Kokoro deluxe set was equally good - platter of sashimi, wakame salad and sushi made with fresh ingredients. Prices are reasonable especially that it’s in a prime location. The owners and servers embody genuine Asian hospitality ✨ thank you! Already looking forward on our next visit! 🫶🏼

So fresh and super affordable, would definitely recommend!! Lovely service aswell

Lovely friendly service, explained the dishes to us… plenty of food, slightly high cost with extras. Taste excellent… will use again deffo….👍🏼👍🏼

The staff were so kind and helpful! Made my day brighter 😊

Lovely place, great food, friendly staff

This Korean restaurant is excellent. The staff were charming and highly attentive, and the food was very satisfying. Their beverages were impeccable, and they offered a wide variety of side dishes. The seating was adequate, although somewhat limited. Overall, it was an exceptional experience. I highly recommend this establishment.

We’ve had lunch on Saturday and it was not busy. We were able to sit by the window and watch world go by whilst eating our tasty meals. I’ve really enjoyed Teriyaki salmon with noddles. It was tasty , juicy and together with noddles, the medium size bowl was very filling. My companion had sweet chilli chicken, which I was told was also very nice. The staff was very attentive and the place was clean and welcoming. Two bowls of food with two cans of drinks cost us £21, which I thought was OK for an enjoyable decent lunch for two. I will go back.

Loved the spicy chicken and noodles

Very accessible! We had a very pleasant meal with amazing food and excellent service. I am a disabled individual and have an assistance dog that detects my heart condition, the staff were extremely kind towards her, a lovely gentleman brought her water without me asking and checked that our meal was all good and if we needed anything halfway through. The restaurant was spotless and clean, service was very quick and food was hot and a good portion too. I don’t normally make reviews but this visit in particular has been one of my best expediences at a restaurant as someone disabled. Thank you very much.

The gentleman who owns this kokoro is geniunely the nicest soul. He always does the most to ensure a lovely meal

Everytime I get food from here it's great and taste really good but today I got salmon nigiri and they tasted funny and smells like the salmon has gone bad

I go to every Kokoro religiously when I travel as it's one of my favourite place to go to get my favourite meal. This is the first place EVER where the portion is smaller then every other Kokoro that I have been to. I would get a medium size everywhere else and I will be full, here I got the medium and was not full so I gave this place another chance and got a large and I still wasn't full. So I won't be returning. The service here is speedy. The atmosphere was simple and very clean.

Great staff, reasonably priced, and they fully fill the box . They don't hold back.

Absolutely delicious and lovely service Highly recommended the spicy chicken!

Amazing food, a free sample made my buy a large tub of food, definitely recommended and the staff was lovely :>

Oh bless the owners they are so sweet! The food is overpriced of course but hey it taste nice 🤠🤠

Love this place. Food is delicious, portion size is good. Friendly service, I always feel welcomed here.

Best service in all of Peteborough, the owner is such a nice man. Food was fresh, tasted great and good value for money. Will go again

It was our first visit to the city.Lovely owners very welcoming and warm place to be in. Great food with great customer service .Best wishes .

The owner came and delivered my missing items which they noticed, I ordered on deliveroo so the owner specifically rang me and came out to deliver it, which was really sweet! And gave my free items. Thank you so much for your consideration and service

Fantastic service and excellent sushi, was offered menu to make fresh sushi straight away.

Really not the restaurants fault, we've placed many orders and the foods great. The deliver provider - Deliveroo, are sh1t. You will receive no more orders from us because of the delivery service. Constantly let down. The more restaurants get complaints the less likely they are to use this circus of clowns.

The food was truly delicious, the best noodle place I’ve been too in a long while. The staff were also extremely sweet, welcoming and generous. I will be back soon!

The food was delicious and the staff was really pleasant and welcoming. I was really surprised with how good it was. Definitely it is one of those places that you wouldn’t miss in town. Highly recommended

I am very pleased with how I was served… the meneger was very kind to me and politely I will soon return with great pleasure

Stood outside pizza express saying goodbyes, when he appeared with a box of sushi 😁 Absolutely delicious and enjoyed it more than the pizza 😉

I absolutely love ordering from here, they do the best Katsu Curry, my girlfriend loves the Salmon Teriyaki. When eating in the staff are always helpful and friendly. Both when eating in and when ordering if there is an issue they're always very quick to resolve it. Kokoro Peterborough is absolutely great.

The manager who served us today was absolutely lovely and the food was delicious !

The food and service was really great and the atmosphere was very friendly. Will definitely be going back. My son loved the cheesecake

Food is always great here. Very fresh and so much better than other local places.

The people where very friendly and welcoming and very kind the food was amazing had spicy chicken with noodles and it was amazing highly recommend

Amazing service as someone who is disabled i worry about going in to places but the staff here was amazing helped me get seated and the food is truly to die for even better then yo sushi

Food was lovely and very nice service from Joseph and Jacob. Absolute scran!

The food is excellent quality! I absolutely loved the beef bulgogi. The staff is very friendly. The owner is very friendly and kind! I absolutely recommend this place. Definitely I'll back!

Lovely food, very good sushi. Would recommend if passing.

Amazing food and staff. Definitely recommend it 👌 Been to Kokoro with 7 kids 7 to 18 age range. They all loved it. 😍

Really friendly and inviting, offering us to try some of their dishes to make sure we liked it before purchasing our own meals! Ended up eating here and really enjoyed it. Will be returning and would 100% recommend. Thank you for great service and food! :)

Very good food and very friendly staff! Very clean! Highly recommend!

Absolutely LOVE Kokoro's food! I cannot stop eating it!!

The manager is super friendly and helpful. We will repeat for sure. Quality price the best in the city. Thank you so much !!!

Owner was welcoming and gave free samples!

Apsolutly amazing! The food is ready good, the service is second to none. They have food for all dietary requirements including vegetarian and halal food. Overall, iust the best.

The food was lovely and filling, making the price very reasonable. The sides are well priced and make a great addition. A little cramped, perhaps one less table in the centre and the drinks are a little pricey. The staff are polite and friendly, they work quick and make delicious food. The decorations are nice, not overstated. Overall I had a wonderful meal and time

Very friendly service and great food

I have come here so many times since opening and I love it, the staff are so lovely and the food is great, I tell everyone to come here because of the quality and service, I just love it so much!!

Helpful and friendly staff, tasty food, overall a very pleasant experience!

Amazing Asian food! I especially love the sushi. Best Value for money around without a doubt. Very welcoming and professional staph and Joseph the owner is great. You MUST TRY AND DONT HESITATE TO ASK FOR SAMPLE OF THE HOT FOOD IF YOU ARE NOT SURE OF WHAT TO GET.

Great food Amazing service from the owner greeting all costumers and ensuring everything it's OK. I'm now a regular costumer

Great food and great service, will be going back for sure!

The food is amazing. I ordered a large chicken katsu curry and I was so full I couldn't quite finish it, and this is for dinner. The staff are lovely and they have a good range of food. I definitely want to come again. I have mobility issues and as it is in the square it's accessible by wheelchair. Both doors open so can be any sized wheelchair. My relative had the cold sushi love set and cold green tea. The tea is such a lovely finish to the meal. You can take away or eat in. We ate in and it was nice to sit at the window and eat.

The best noodles, great kick from the chillies, my only negative was tofu was bit mushy , would have been perfect if more texture and firmer but just my preference 💚

Yummy.. And chap serving the foods was a top fella. Thanks.

If your looking for sushi in Peterborough in a good price range I would definitely recommend going here, nice range of sushi, desserts, hot food and drinks. Staff are super friendly and helpful, always asking if everything is going good.

Got served raw chicken made me ill for days

Was given a taster, went back for lunch. The gentleman remembered me, took the trouble to check I was happy - yes I was! Will definitely return next time in Peterborough. Personal service makes all the difference....

I was unsure on what to order, it all smelt and looked really good. The owner helped me decide. Honestly the noodles and spicy chicken was gorgeous. All fresh ingredients and you can tell that the cook has taken pride in the food provided. I had a medium pot and it filled me up for the rest of the day. Highly recommend.

The service and food was amazing. Highly recommend!

The food are the best, me and my friends go there and their customer service is good they even heat up cold food for you

BEST SHOP EVERRRR IN THE WHOLE WORLD I START CRYING BC OF HOW NICE THE OWNER is

nice chill quick rice bowl spot, better than chopstix.

Best place to be welcome. Best tasty food and welcoming are perfect. Thank you. Defenatly recomend and coming again.

Just happened to be walking past in Peterborough and decided to stop in. Was not disappointed in the food. It was delicious and great value for money.

Amazing place, I'll be back again that's for sure

i went and got some of the premade sushi boxes and they were amazing! the sushi tasted fresh and was cheap and the staff seemed lovely

Great service and food, what a top place to stop for lunch when in town. The sweet chilli chicken is a must for those that like spice, had this with the chicken curry and noodles and thoroughly enjoyed. Would definitely recommend and will be back.

Nice Food, even if it's on the luke warm side

Very nice place enhanced by some wonderful staff. I felt very welcomed and ultimately very full after my meal. Thank you.

Every single time I've ordered from here it has been amazing. Great quality food (the kimchi is honestly the best I've had in the UK). Quick service, friendly & helpful staff when in store. Plus I got an adorable message on my bag.

I wanted to try out the food here for a while and I was really pleased I did!! I ordered it from deliveroo and arrived in just under 30 minutes. I ordered a "mix and match" (beef bulgogi + chicken teriyaki + rice). It tasted amazing!! One of the best takeaways I've had!! It was full of flavour. It didn't have any chilli so I would definitely 100% recommend this combination if you are not great with chilli. I was worried that the "mix and match" pot would be too small, so I also ordered the salmon nigiri and a custard dorayaki. But to be honest, the size of the pot was much much bigger than I imagined. It's really great value for money!! So I had about half leftover in the pot and was quite full (but I had to finish it off because it was way too yummy). Can't wait to order from here again!!

I give real reviews, with pictures of the food without any filters or prep. Unfortunately Kokoro has let me down for the 2nd time. I've had the same experience two times in a row. I hope the owners read this to improve their business. The first time only 1 out of 3 of the meals I ordered were fresh. I learned from this experience and today I asked them politely if they could make all my meals fresh. They refused to make the sweet chilli chicken fresh as they had just made one 30 minutes ago they claimed. They did however make the sweet sour chicken fresh for me. However, when I went home and tasted the fresh one, it wasn't cooked properly and the sauce was grainy and the chicken was mushy. The sweet chilli chicken which wasn't cooked fresh however it was cooked to a nice quality, even though I could taste that it was definitely older than 30 minutes. More bad news; they forgot to heat the noodles in the microwave, the noodles were stone cold and the chicken was luke warm. Any person can taste the difference between old food Vs a freshly made meal. If you enjoy not fresh food for restaurant prices then you'll love this place. The only reason I gave 2 stars is because the flavouring of the sauces is good, if only they cooked fresh food like the 1 out of 3 first meals I had from here, it would be an outstanding 5 stars and the place would be very busy. If you have a reputation for fresh reliable food, you will get a constant stream of happy customers. Service is fine but a little clumsy, forgot to microwave the noodles. I don't think they understood that I was prepared to pay more for fresh food. If I ever go back, I will try to explain this point again. The atmosphere is good, when it's not busy it's possible to sit in and eat there.

Got delivery and got something from the shop in cathedral square today, normally have no problems but got back home ate with my partner and we felt sick after and bad stomachs the tuna nigiri looked pale in colour and didn’t look the same as always so I’m assuming it was bad either they brought it bad or they left it overtime which causes more bacteria that the human body can’t handle as it’s raw, probably won’t get again unfortunately as I’ve always had good food from there but now it’s not for me🫤

I went for the chicken katsu curry which was alright, the chicken was over cooked though which made it a little tough. The sauce and rice was really nice though. They guy behind the counter gave us a little sample whilst we were eating. The portion sizes are good but I would still say it’s slightly over priced. Oh and they were pretty stingy with the sauce.

To be honest it was not as good as I was hoping. I would not go back. I am sure many people enjoy it.

Had high hopes everything looks really good & fresh. I tried the hot food a few weeks ago, noodles with katsu chicken & hot & spicy chicken. The chicken was gristly, stringy & chewy & the noodles were mushy & didn't have any taste. Today I took a sushi box because I love sushi & the boxes do look very well presented. I took the deluxe sushi set, it was soooo bland & tasteless, super disappointed. Tasted like the sort of sushi you'd buy at a supermarket. For £9.95 a box I had good expectations. The fish was literally tasteless, I could taste the avacado more than the fish & tbh didn't taste very fresh either. I'm surprised by all the raving reviews. Too expensive for bad tasting food. Shame as I had high hopes.

Fantastic beef bulgogi and perfect sushi, wonderful service from the Korean couple in Kokoro. Thank you!

Amazing Sushi place, nice, clean and fresh! Please try to grab a box !

I highly recommend this place. Best asain food in peterborough fresh flavourful and good size portions and fair prices to. The members of staff are very kind helpful and welcoming. The owners are lovely had a nice chat about korea and the lady gave my son a little gift. Thank you so much

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Kokoro, a new noodle place in Peterborough. The food was fantastic, and the atmosphere was inviting. Kokoro offers a range of Asian-inspired noodle dishes, and I opted for their noodle and sweet chilli chicken with extra katsu chicken and curry sauce. It was a flavor explosion! The noodles were perfectly cooked, and the combination of sweet chilli chicken and the added katsu chicken brought a delightful mix of flavors. The curry sauce added a satisfying kick. The freshness of the ingredients was evident, and it truly made the dish shine. The ambiance of Kokoro was cozy and modern, creating a comfortable setting for a meal. The staff members were friendly and provided attentive service, adding to the overall positive experience. One great aspect of Kokoro is that they offer halal options, which is a fantastic inclusion for those with specific dietary requirements. In conclusion, Kokoro is a noodle place in Peterborough that offers delicious food and an enjoyable dining experience. Their noodle dishes are bursting with flavors, and the inviting atmosphere adds to the charm. With the availability of halal options, Kokoro caters to a wider range of customers. I highly recommend visiting Kokoro to savor their tasty noodles and support this promising establishment.

the food the vibe and the price were proper gucci. the food was delicious and filling, the place itself gave off a cozy vibe so it felt really comfortable dining in. its really affordable aswell defenitely isnt over priced. had a great experience will deffo go again.

One of my favourite places to eat in Peterborough, a quick and convenient place to grab a bite

Great foods, So tasty! Very kind staffs. Definitely visit again!

So in a nutshell it’s an improved version of chopsticks restaurant. Food was really good, tasty, hot and very well seasoned. I could tell it’s freshly made. I did get noodles even though I have ordered rice but I didn’t ask them to change it as the food would just end up in a bin and I’m not about to waste food ahah. We’ve paid £22 ish for two large boxes and two drinks. It might look pricey, however, they pack the boxes to the very top and for us it was lunch and dinner. Staff were very friendly. You can tell that the restaurant is fairly new as some staff looked a little lost but big smiles and apologies made it all good. I did not try sushi, however, the choice and options looked pretty good. It is a little pricey but that’s what you would expect when ordering sushi haha. It’s not the place to go and sit down at, as they don’t have many seats and the place gets very crowded so you might want to have it as take away. Overall, good experience and tasty food. 🙌

Really fresh Sushi not like supermarket stuff. Staff are VERY nice and helpful! Highly recommend

Owner/staff extremely friendly and very knowledgeable about the food. The food itself is incredible, unmatched by any other korean food ive had yet. Will come many times again.

Very nice men served us! Thank you so much Food amazing!

Excellent choice of food from Japan and Asia. From lucious hot food to Sushi, it's lovely. I had a lovely experience with the staff and the restaurant was very clean and modern. I chose Sweet and Sour pork with noodles. It was a large one (small, medium and large tubs are available). I have an allergy to chilli, so stated this before I ordered. Choose a main item with rice or noodles. I also had 3 breaded prawn sticks and a drink. It was well worth the price I paid of £14+ because the food was hot and plenty of it. Also I have enough left for another meal as I took it home. Cutlery and chop sticks are available. On the whole I highly recommend a visit to KOKORO if you wish to try something really tasty and want to try something from the orient. The Sushi is in a fridge and is boxed. Customer service was excellent & attention to the customer needs is great too. Accessibly for the disabled is great too. No toilets on site though. (😀😀😀)

Very convenience location and nice food.

Had a lovely lunch with my partner and baby in tow at the new place in Peterborough centre Kokoro. Went in and had a lovely welcome by I think the lady owner. She explained the food to us and we even got to have a try before we decided what to have. We ended up having the same as each other and my three month old baby boy couldn't stop staring at the food!!! Can highly recommend both for the food and the atmosphere and service. Clean and tidy. Chefs kiss 💋

Was going to stop for lunch but wasn't sure if my mother in law would enjoy it, but the staff was so lovely and the food looked amazing, ended up going back to pick some sushi up for dinner and the staff remembered us and again, still so lovely. We don't have a lot of decent sushi places near here, and honestly both me and my husband thought it was the best sushi we have had in a long time. Great prices for the food too, you could easily pay more in a supermarket for something subpar. Highly recommended Kokoro!

Decent sushi freshly prepared at request which tastes great. Very reasonably priced too.
