One of the best ramen I’ve ever had is this: https://ramen.haus/united-kingdom/london/cha-mori-ramen-kanada-ya/ https://ramen.haus/united-kingdom/london/cha-mori-ramen-kana... Pre-Covid, this restaurant would regularly have queues down the street to get in. But it’s a small place. Basically the size of someone’s front room. Definitely worth a visit.

Kanada-Ya is a chain with at least 5 locations in London, and while they're fairly good, they're still somewhat focused on Deliveroo-type transactions. It remains quite different from a genuine ramen shop in Japan.

  That wasn’t the case pre-Covid when I was talking about. But it’s still good even now. And it’s obviously going to be quite different from Japanese restaurants because London isn’t in Japan (surprise surprise).

    London does have a number of independent Ramen spots -- not many though.

      Got any recommendations?

        The website is listing Monohon; that's a good one. Old Street, walk-in only.

    For a long time, their first restruant in Covent Garden always had a hell of a queue and tiny seating area. Shoryu Ramen is good too and bone daddies though they do other stuff too.
