Lunch on Great Queen Street
Akatuki serves a separate weekday lunch menu Monday to Friday, from midday until 5:00pm. It is built for a shorter sitting than dinner: bento boxes that arrive with miso soup and side dishes, sushi sets cut to order, and single-bowl noodles and rice.
Prices start at £10.00 for the omelette fried rice, teriyaki beef donburi and vegetable yakisoba bentos, which makes it one of the best-value lunches in Covent Garden. Sushi sets begin at £15.60, and the four-course Aka Premium set is £30.00. Every price on the lunch menu is listed below.
We are four minutes from Holborn and five from Covent Garden Underground, which puts the restaurant inside a lunch hour from most of the West End, Holborn and Bloomsbury. The full à la carte menu is available at lunchtime as well. Coming from Holborn station or the British Museum? Our guide to lunch near Holborn and the British Museum has the walk from each.
Online bookings are confirmed straight away. Honestly, this is easily one of my favourite Japanese dining experiences in London. …
