The seaweed roastery on Museum Street.
Two minutes from the British Museum, in a Grade II listed building in the heart of Bloomsbury, we roast seaweed every day and roll it into lunch.
In Korea, warm, freshly roasted seaweed is a simple everyday pleasure. In London, it usually comes in a packet made months ago. We opened Seaweed Roastery to change that.
We’re a small team of Korean cooks and Londoners. Every day our automatic roaster seasons and toasts fresh sheets of seaweed right in the shop. By lunchtime it’s wrapped around fresh gimbap, folded into tacos and sprinkled over rice cups — or packed up for you to take home.
Fresh every day
We roast in small batches every day. Nothing sits on a shelf for months.
Simple ingredients
Korean seaweed, cold-pressed oils and sea salt. Nothing artificial.
Inspired by Hangul
Our logo is one letter, 김, on a sheet of seaweed. Hangul, the Korean alphabet, was made so anyone could learn it easily — we want our food to feel just as easy.
