Marugame Udon has announced it will open a new restaurant at The Kensington Arcade on December 22, after signing a 10-year lease.

Acquired by AshbyCapital in February 2019, The Kensington Arcade comprises 26,000 sq ft of retail and offices that forms the entrance to High Street Kensington Underground Station. The arcade contains 15 retail units, with three small office floors located above the main arcade.
Tom Smithers, property director at AshbyCapital, said: “Further broadening the extensive food and beverage offering at The Kensington Arcade, we are delighted to welcome Marugame Udon as they continue their ambitious expansion plans.”
Keith Bird, CEO at Marugame Udon, added: “With bold ambitions to become a household name in Europe, we are delighted to expand into The Kensington Arcade. Having launched our first restaurant in the UK in 2021 we are pleased to continue bringing the udon way of life to all the Londoners, as we open our new Kensington restaurant before the end of 2022.”
