WHAT TO EXPECT AT CHUKU’S
Ready to chop, chat, chill? Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, expect a little slice of Lagos in London. Every visit serves up serious flavour and Naija spirit - your mini escape to Nigeria, no passport needed.
CHOP
Nigerian aunties don’t let you leave hungry, and neither do we. Each dish on our Nigerian tapas menu is made to serve up joy and leave your taste buds dancing, whether it’s your first taste of Jollof or you’re already an Egusi expert.
At Chuku’s, there are no food rules - that’s why you’ll find playful twists on our menu like our sticky Zobo Wings and Plantain Waffle. Our sharing plates work like a traditional Nigerian hall party buffet: pick, mix and eat to your heart (and belly’s) content.
Go for another round of Beef Suya, order a Yam Brownie AND a Chin Chin Cheesecake and why not roll those sleeves up and tuck in with your hands? We’re here for it all! The only thing we care about? For you to enjoy each bite and leave a “nice clean plate,” just like our founders’ nne nne (grandmother) used to hope for after cooking for them.
Chat
No avoiding eye contact here! Whether you’re catching up with friends or chatting with the diner next to you, Chuku’s is all about real connection. And yes, solo diners, that includes you!
In Nigerian culture, food is at the heart of every social gathering. The Chuku’s experience is infused with that same energy, so every visit encourages laughter, conversation and a little sense of community. That’s why strangers swap recommendations, groups of mates lose themselves in deep conversation, and belly laughs erupt over our Egusi Bowl.
So in true Naija spirit, we invite you to chat as much as you eat and you never know who you might meet. Seriously…solo diners have walked in as strangers and left as friends.
Chill
The mini-break you didn’t know you needed. Kick back to the Nigerian beats on our speakers, explore the proverbs on our walls and find your next read on our bookshelf of Nigerian authors.
A trip to Chuku’s is your chance to escape your everyday. Say goodbye to London and, as it says over our door, “welcome to Lagos.”
We’re here to transport you to Nigeria - no passport needed. All you need to do is book your table. Your mini-break awaits.
“The food is (always) amazing, but the best thing about this place is the atmosphere... If you’ve not been here yet, go IMMEDIATELY.”
Got your table? Here’s how to chop, chat, chill like a pro.
