Bloomsbury Street Kitchen is a stylish Mediterranean and Japanese restaurant at 9-13 Bloomsbury Street. Its relaxed dining room and terrace sit close to the British Museum and West End theatres, offering an elegant setting for breakfast, lunch, dinner, cocktails or a collection of plates shared across the table.
Mediterranean dishes bring together seafood, vegetables and carefully balanced sauces. Hand dived scallops, layered patatas bravas, yellowtail tartare and seared beef tacos provide a varied opening, while salads, fresh pasta, grilled meat and fish allow diners to move gradually from light bites into more substantial plates.
The Japanese side of the menu uses clean, bright flavours across sashimi, tempura and dishes cooked over the grill. Yellowfin tuna, yellowtail, crisp prawns, beef tataki and roasted aubergine contrast delicate seafood with richer savoury notes, while rice and vegetable dishes give the selection further depth.
A dedicated vegan menu makes the sharing format accessible to groups with different preferences, and breakfast provides a separate reason to visit earlier in the day. Desserts, wine and inventive cocktails extend the evening, while private menus and flexible event spaces support celebrations, business meals and larger gatherings.
