Bunsik Leicester Square

Bunsik in Leicester Square is a great pick if you want simple, well-made Korean street food. I always go for the chicken corn dog with a drizzle of cheese on top. Absolutely delicious... The bonus is that it’s halal, which makes it an easy option without having to overthink the order.

The space is quite clean and very bright. The only downside is it's size, it fills up fast and the limited seating means you’ll probably end up eating on the go. Tip - take the corn dog and sit on the 'benches' in Leicester Square

Service was quick and friendly. Despite the constant queue, the staff kept everything moving smoothly.

Overall, Bunsik is definitely worth stopping by if you want a quick, comforting bite in central London. Prices are fair for the area and the food delivers exactly what you want. I’d suggest going during quieter times if you prefer a bit more space.

I’d been waiting a long time to finally try Bunsik, and it didn’t disappoint. The shop being open late is ideal for a foodie day out in Chinatown, giving you more time to squeeze in different spots. Ordering is done via a self-service screen, which is quick and efficient.

I accidentally ordered the crunchy mozzarella instead of the potato mozzarella, but it turned out to be a happy mistake - it was still really tasty, and I’d definitely go back to try the others. The portions are quite big, so not the easiest to eat on the go, but manageable.

That day I chose not to eat in, as the seating area looked quite dirty. My only other concern was seeing deep cleaning happening around the cooking area while I was waiting for my food. It made me a little unsure about timing and hygiene.

That aside, the food itself was fresh, fun, and worth the wait.

Great halal food with a Locations that is really good.

Easily accessible through public transport and walking distance.

Pricing is really good and affordable for the quality of food you get.

The waiting time does get a bit longer and there are times where you are just waiting i side the shop for your order with a typical 5/6 orders before you. They do have short staff.

Eating location inside tha store is a bit crammed as there aren't that many seats spaces available.

I finally got to try Bunsik after seeing it all over TikTok, and it was definitely worth the hype! The Korean corn dog I had was absolutely delicious – the cheese pull was so satisfying and gooey, and the crispy coating gave it the perfect crunch. The spicy mayo on top was amazing and added just the right kick of flavour.

The inside of the shop isn’t huge and there’s not a lot of seating, but it wasn’t too busy when I went, so it was easy to grab my food and enjoy it straight away. The service was quick and friendly too, which made the experience even better.

Really nice Korean Corn Dogs. They have a variety of flavours, with the cheese variants being the best. Service is fast and you can place your order using the touch screens dotted around the store.

It is very claustrophobic inside due to the lack of space. Having said that, you are served very quickly, so it's not the biggest pain point.
