you have yet to experience the craze that is Japanese steamed buns, now is even a better time to dive right in as Beer & Buns has gone permanent after the success of their pop up.  Housed upstairs at K10, Beers & Buns takes the pillow-soft buns and fills them with a selection of goodies, along with a WHOLE load of Japanese craft beers.

Flavours include Pork Belly, Chicken Karrage, Pulled Duck Leg and Kaki fry Vegetable Fritters, all come with misos, slaws and chutneys. We recommend hitting all four as you won’t wanna miss out. Leave room for the crispy Korean-style chicken wings though, which come sweet, spicy or smokin’ hot. HAWT! The beers range from Japan’s first ever micro-brewed beer to the names you’ll recognise such as Asahi. We were fond of the smokey Coedo Beniaka.

Beers & Buns is decked out in a Speakeasy meets Japanese dive bar style with retro pinball machines and fuss ball to boot. Beer and Buns, what more do you need?
