Neighbourhood Cafe Yukari in Richmond upon Thames

Awful.The food was off, and it has put me off eating salmon after the terrible experience that I had at this place.Do not recommend.It was also expensive and not worth the price with slow service.

A lovely family-owned café with Japanese specialties. The atmosphere is fanatastic and they host a variety of special musical events. It's such a special place, where you just want to hang out!

This is a great find. Late at night walking around Kew, I managed to come across this place which I had never seen open before. The food was strikingly brilliant and the service was awesome. I was served by a young lady who was very kind and took time to chat to me and make sure my food was as I liked it, she had good recommendations too. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Every detail down to the chairs and tables were interesting and made me feel like I was transported to a different country. Will be returning ASAP.

Chance encounter and what a joy. Fabulous noodle and vegetable soup perfect for a cold day. Spotlessly clean and will return again soon

Muito afáveis e prestável bom serviço aconselho 😊👍simpatia e os noddles muito bons 😋😋 em Londres numa zona muito bonita vai a pena conhecer

Really lovely little local cafe serving the most delicious Yaki Soba! I highly recommend this place!

Lovely little cafe/restaurant with a few CLEAN tables outside to sit and take in the glorious winter sunshine. Staff incredibly friendly. We only had tea and cake but will be coming back post lockdown to try the evening menu. Came across Yukari by accident when out for a long Sunday walk and it made our day to have found it.

Found this cafe purely by accident. The other side of the railway ( where the Botanic Gardens are ) was very busy on a sunny Autumn Sunday, but cross over the bridge and it's a different world.Location is on a corner that gets the afternoon sunshine. Tables both inside and out with lots of space in between. Good for hot drinks and a very limited selection of croissant, pain au chocolat or scone to go with them.But it is Japanese owned and they do a small menu of cooked to orderJapanese food. While I was in there, someone came in to order and he was obviously a regular. A couple of local Kew ladies as well as two Japanese ladies also came in for coffee.Overall a calm little cafe and a very pleasant pitstop for an hour.

We had the set lunch of the day which was teriyaki salmon, brown rice, boiled vegetables and miso soup it was absolutely delicious and cost £13. The service was amazing, very friendly and helpful and the toilet is warm on your butt, very Japanese, I loved this cafe and highly recommend it

Wanted a hot drink to warm us up before entering Kew Gardens on a wet and windy morning.What a lovely little find. A small seating area with a grand piano. Delicious hot chocolate. Exceptionally polite and friendly staff. Although we only stopped for a drink, we sensed a really lovely atmosphere.Noticed a sign advertising a Japanese 7 course meal. Something I would definitely like to try in the future.Toilets were absolutely spotlessly clean! Thank you.

Pleasant and helpful staff in relaxed atmosphere Quite small and cramped but always enjoyable visit Next to Kew station as you arrive from London

A friend and I arrived early for the night exhibition at Kew Gardens and needed somewhere to eat a light meal. The owners were delightful and very kind to let us order a meal even though they had a piano recital that night. We really enjoyed our vegetarian meal and even had a preview of the recital...win, win!

Had a great lunch here today. Superb healthy tasty soup and the best roasted Japanese green tree. Will be my new fav in the area. Wonderful staff too.

When we went to Kew Gardens, we wanted to eat outside the Gardens as we read there were lines and few options inside. Near the tube station we found this lovely little cafe, and were very pleased with the soup and sandwich we had there.

This is a good local cafe run by a Japanese lady, Yukari, and her husbandThe coffee and croissants are good and there are Japanese dishes for lunchIt is ideally situated opposite Kew Gardens Station and is an ideal place to stop if you are coming from London to the Botanic GardensThey also run small scale concerts

Situated on a corner with windows both sides, a miniature garden outside. I had vegetarian curry and rice, with green tea - very tasty. Friendly service.

Quand vous sortez de la gare de Kew Gardens (en arrivant de Londres) vous ne pouvez pas le manquer! Ce petit "café" propose de nombreuses boissons chaudes, des pâtisseries, des sandwiches et des salades aussi bien typiquement "British" que d'origine asiatique.Perso, nous y sommes allés pour un "afternoon tea" après une bonne promenade à Kew Gardens. Nous avons pris un "cream tea" (un énorme "scone" tout chaud accompagné de la traditionnelle confiture à la fraise, la "clotted cream" et d'un "tea pot" généreux, de quoi boire 2 grandes tasses de thé) pour £6. Notre fille a pris un thé matcha fait dans les règles de l'art accompagné d'un cheesecake délicieux. Le tout servi très simplement et gentiment dans une salle avec une déco un peu années 50 où trône un énorme piano à queue (pour les soirées jazz en live!). Allez-y sans hésiter, vous serez bien reçu et vous apprécierez le moment...

The cafe is conveniently located right outside the Kew gardens station, very convenient as we were also going to the archives.Good prices as they were doing a before 11am menu for the train travellers.We had an earl grey tea and a hot chocolate, along with a blueberry muffin and a croissant.Good value for money.

Right next to Kew station on the eastern side, this cafe is a gem. It has good coffee and japanese food in cosy surroundings. On sundays, it has often music. The food is great. Service is friendly. Must try the Japanese toilet.

J’ai adoré ce petit café juste en face de la station de métro agencé et décoré avec beaucoup de goût, de finesse... très British.

The place is located really conveniently right next to the train station- ideal for those who want a coffee before visiting the gardens. The coffee is very good, and for a reasonable price.

Located on the quiet (southbound) side of the station, this cafe is family owned and operated. We enjoyed coffee, pastry and a Japanese curry dish. Currently it is open only in the daytime, there are occasional musical events on the plaza outside.

We were on our way to kew garden when my 3 years daughter desperately needed to use the bathroom. So desperate we went in and asked if we could use the bathroom. Despite obvious our urgent need we were refused to use the toilet unless we need to pay. I don't often carry cash so we had to leave.

Lovely food in a lovely little eatery. my partner and I had waffles and a a breakfast with tea and coffee. very clean, very fresh.

On way to Kew gardens my friend and l sent in for coffee and scones.The coffee was smooth, and scones were served warm.We felt relaxed by the unobtrusive service. After our day in Kew we returned for a delightful tea.

We stopped in this cafe right outside the Kew gardens station after a day at the archives (easy walk to and from the archives).

The wait of around ten minutes for the toast was worth it. The two slices were provided in a delightful box, and instead of buttering the toast, the Japanese owner had left us with the option of doing this. Both a plastic knife and fork were provided as well. All in all, an incredible experience.

Just been to this really friendly little cafe/restaurant where you can eat authentic home-style Japanese food. Genuine and unpretentious.

Great place for a morning coffee, light lunch or afternoon tea. Lovely home cooked Japanese food. Very nice relaxed atmosphere is a lovely light room.
