Kibou Japanese Kitchen & Bar

Details

Nestled at 11-12 Little Clarendon Street, Kibou Japanese Kitchen & Bar brings a vibrant slice of Tokyo to the heart of Oxford's Jericho neighbourhood. The moment you arrive, you're greeted by a stunning cherry blossom installation that extends from the facade inwards, hinting at the beautifully designed interior featuring hand-painted murals by Martyna Sabadasz and traditional Japanese block print textiles. With various dining zones, including a light-filled conservatory with cosy booths, an atmospheric dining room offering views of the open sushi kitchen, and a relaxed cocktail lounge, there’s a spot for every occasion. The menu is a delightful exploration of Japanese cuisine, from beautifully presented sushi and sashimi platters to A5 grade seared wagyu, hearty ramen bowls, crispy tempura, and pillowy bao buns.

The culinary journey at Kibou extends to an impressive drinks selection, featuring signature Japanese-inspired cocktails, a wide array of Japanese whisky and sake, and Japanese-brewed beers. Whether you're looking for a shareable feast of small plates like the popular Volcano Roll or Dynamite Prawns, or a more substantial dish like a classic katsu curry or teriyaki, the menu caters to all tastes, including extensive vegan options. For a unique experience, consider their Japanese-inspired afternoon tea, which creatively swaps finger sandwiches for sushi and scones for mochi. The friendly and knowledgeable staff are on hand to guide you through the extensive menu, ensuring a memorable visit filled with innovative food and a lively, welcoming atmosphere.
