Where Yunnan Meets London.

Like London—a city shaped by diversity and inclusivity—YUN shares those values while carrying Yunnan’s spirit beyond tradition. Our cuisine sits where heritage meets reinvention, retelling timeless flavours in a fresh, modern voice.

We believe food is more than flavour—it’s a form of cultural connection. When you sip that first spoonful of mushroom broth or twirl the first strand of rice noodles, you may not fully understand Yunnan yet. But you begin to imagine it. You begin to feel something familiar about a place once distant. Not everyone who visits Yun will know Yunnan—but we hope that many will fall in love with Yunnan because of us.

From Yunnan’s mist-covered mountains to London’s vibrant streets, our journey has unfolded over seven years. What began as a small Brick Lane kitchen has grown into a brand that celebrates the depth and richness of Yunnan’s culinary culture—through busy services, late nights and takeaways—becoming part of London’s own fabric.

Diversity and inclusivity are not only London’s spirit; they are also woven into Yunnan’s cuisine. Together, they are the essence of YUN.

  • Rooted in the Land

    In Yunnan, flavour begins with the land. Rice grows on highland terraces nourished by spring water; tea leaves gather mist on ancient slopes. Every ingredient carries its own story of soil, sun, and season. At YUN, we bring these origins to London—so that each bowl and cup holds not just taste, but memory.

  • A Culture of Sharing

    In Yunnan, rice noodle shops welcome everyone from dawn till late, while night-time barbecues and hotpots bring families and friends together around one table. At YUN, we carry that same belief: every meal is an invitation to connect, because flavour is richer when it is shared.

  • Together with Care

    In Yunnan, food reflects a respect for nature and diversity. Many traditional dishes are plant-based or naturally gluten-free, shaped by the land and by generations of mindful cooking. At YUN, we carry this spirit to London.

    Our menu offers vegan and gluten-free options crafted without compromise on flavour, and our doors are open to four-legged friends—because meals feel even warmer with their company. At YUN, kindness is part of the recipe.
