Bi Won is a Korean restaurant on Coptic Street in Bloomsbury, close to the British Museum and within easy reach of Tottenham Court Road. The restaurant has served traditional Korean food at this address since 2004, building its identity around a broad choice of dishes suitable for lunch, dinner and sharing. Its compact dining room offers a casual setting for visitors exploring central London as well as diners seeking familiar Korean comfort food.
Korean barbecue is an important part of the selection, with marinated beef, pork and other grilled dishes providing savoury flavours that work well with rice and vegetable accompaniments. Bulgogi and other seasoned meat preparations sit alongside Korean fried chicken and pancakes, giving groups several ways to build a meal for the table. The contrast between crisp, grilled and marinated elements helps the larger selection feel varied rather than repetitive.
Stews and hot pots bring another side of Korean cooking to the menu, combining warming broths with meat, seafood, tofu, kimchi or vegetables. Bibimbap, noodles and rice dishes provide complete individual options, while smaller plates make it possible to explore more than one flavour. Vegetarian and vegan choices are also available, so a mixed group can choose from grilled food, soups, vegetables and comforting bowls.
Bi Won currently serves lunch and dinner across the week, with reservations, table service, takeaway and delivery among its available options. Its position near the museum makes it practical for a midday stop, while the range of barbecue and shared dishes also suits a longer evening meal. The full menu below shows the latest dishes, combinations and prices available from the Coptic Street restaurant.
