Wagamama is gearing up to light up the Cotswolds with its first UK restaurant opening in 2025, nestled at the shiny new Cotswolds Designer Outlet. This stylish joint will boast a capacity for 150 indoor diners and a breezy 56 outdoor spots, perfect for those sunny days. Not only does this new gastronomic gem promise to delight diners, but it also aims to dish out 50 new jobs, making a sweet contribution to the local economy.
As if that wasn't enough, Wagamama is also refreshing its image with a new summer menu launched under the vibrant banner of ‘food is life.’ This isn’t just a catchy tagline; it’s a heartfelt celebration of the culinary delights that connect us all. Featuring their famous pho noodle soups served in a clear yuzu broth, guests can choose from luscious chicken thighs, slippery hoki fish, or the earthy king oyster mushrooms– all garnished with a medley of fresh herbs, fiery red peppers, and a zesty squirt of lime.
The menu doesn’t stop there. Fresh salads make an appearance, including a sweet chilli masterpiece with caramelized chicken or tofu and a pad thai salad inspired by the beloved classics.
In an exciting twist, diners can now build their own donburi bowls, selecting proteins, vegetables, and toppings for a customized meal, topped off with the intriguingly healthy option of cauliflower ‘rice.’ So, gather your friends and make plans– 2025 is promising to be a delicious year in the Cotswolds!
