LOCATIONS
We have three restaurants in Manchester and a dedicated kiosk for a quick bite. In London, we currently operate two restaurants, including our recently opened Wimbledon location.
Manchester
Albert Square
Small but perfectly formed, with a cosy max capacity of 64. We’re less than five minutes’ walk from either Deansgate or Spinningfields, with the nearest tram stop being St. Peter’s Square. Coming by car? The surrounding streets have metered parking.
Corn Exchange
Located at the centre of the centre of Manchester, a stone’s throw from the Arndale, Printworks, Manchester Arena and the Northern Quarter. Whether you’re shopping, gigging, cinema-going or bar-hopping, our Corn Exchange branch will give you the street-food fix you need to keep your day rolling along nicely.
Trafford Centre
Take a well-earned refuelling break in the heart of Manchester’s retail mecca. Sit outside in the upper food hall and watch the bustle go by, or join us inside and watch our skilled chefs work the woks. Perfect for pre- or post-cinema eats. No loudly discussing spoilers though, yeah?
East Street Kiosk
Our quick and convenient takeaway kiosk, situated on the ground floor of The Orient, at the centre of Manchester’s super-sized shopping village. Authentic East Asian street food – the perfect pick-me-up, and ready whenever you are.
London
Fitzrovia
Our buzzy West End location, just a couple of minutes from Oxford Street, Soho Square and Tottenham Court Road. Popular with office workers, shoppers, night owls and day trippers, East Street is casual, colourful and convenient – delivering authentic East Asian flavours in deepest Zone 1.
UPCOMING CLASSES
Cookery School
At Tampopo Cookery School, you’ll learn how to make the following mouth-watering, show-stopping East Asian dishes such as Vietnamese Summer Rolls, Corn Fritters and Pad Thai
ABOUT US
Here at Tampopo, we take incredible dishes from the streets of East Asia – Thailand, Korea, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan – and recreate them for the good people of Manchester and London.
“stunning east asian food
in big servings at small price”
– The Observer
Our Eastern menu has been shaped by our journeys across the region – journeys we still regularly undertake, discovering amazing new recipes and learning from the chefs who’ve perfected them. We bring you the real flavours, real textures, real freshness – and, for those that crave it, that real heat-kick, too.
Our name ‘Tampopo’ (a Japanese girl’s name meaning ‘dandelion’) is also the title of a Japanese film, which chronicles a woman’s search for the perfect bowl of noodles; a quest we recreate at Tampopo today.
