A NEW Japanese restaurant has opened its doors in Hereford, promising award-winning food.

The team behind Maneki Ramen, Best Japanese Restaurant UK 2023, has come to Hereford.

Maneki Ramen is based at The Yard in Hereford's Aubrey Street, which has been re-imagined to serve food and drink seven days a week, year round.

Alongside Maneki Ramen, you can savour the flavours of Leaven Pizza (Highly Commended Best Pizza 2023), BurgerShop (Runner Up National Burger Awards 22 and 24), and The Bookshop (OFM Best Sunday Lunch Winner).

Nestled behind Hereford favourites, Bookshop and Burger Shop on Aubrey Street, 'The Yard' offers all who visit the option to order from all four restaurants and a central bar.

"We're thrilled to introduce Maneki Ramen to Hereford and bring 'The Yard’ experience year-round," said Edwin Kirk, director of A Rule of Tum.

The Yard, which A Rule of Tum brands as Hereford's answer to Boxpark, a food and retail park first launched in Shoreditch before opening locations in Croydon and Wembley, promises visitors a "personalised feast".

Guests can pick their seat, with no bookings taken, order by QR code from any of the four restaurants on site, and buy drinks directly from the bar, while food will be brought out to them.
