Bone Daddies
Bone Daddies is a Japanese ramen restaurant in Camden focused on traditional noodle soups and rock-and-roll style. The venue features long communal tables, modern decor, cheeky furnishings, and a lively space with music, where fresh ramen is prepared daily using classic Japanese recipes.
The restaurant opened in 2012 in Soho and has expanded to multiple London locations since then. The founding chef brought techniques from renowned restaurants like Zuma and Nobu while maintaining focus on slow-cooked, flavorful broths that simmer for many hours.
The name 'Bone Daddies' playfully refers to the pork bone broth that forms the heart of the Tonkotsu ramen. The casual setup with long shared tables encourages communal eating, where guests pass plates to one another and share meals together.
The restaurant gets very busy during peak times and queues regularly form outside. Visitors should aim for quieter periods and expect tight seating arrangements, though the staff serves quickly and dishes are prepared promptly.
The restaurant offers seasonal limited-time ramen varieties that change monthly, inviting regular visitors to try new flavor combinations. The owners also operate Shackfuyu and Flesh & Buns, other establishments serving Japanese-inspired dishes with the same creative spirit.
