When BARIUMA launched in Edinburgh, Scotland, it wasn’t just about bringing another Japanese ramen brand to Europe—it was about making a bold statement. The city of castles, cobblestones, and whisky now proudly boasts a ramen house where depth of flavor meets modern elegance.

From Hiroshima to Edinburgh: A Warm Welcome

Nestled near the University of Edinburgh and just a stroll from the Royal Mile, BARIUMA Edinburgh has quickly become a go-to comfort spot for students, locals, and tourists alike.

The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by the aroma of slow-cooked broth and sizzling chashu. The atmosphere is cozy yet contemporary, balancing traditional Japanese design with Edinburgh’s urban flair.

“As a Japanese person living in the UK, this is the real deal. It’s authentic, hearty, and makes me feel at home.”
— Japanese customer in Edinburgh

What Makes BARIUMA Edinburgh Stand Out?

• Prime Location
  Strategically situated in a vibrant, academic, and tourism-rich area, the store draws daily foot traffic from young professionals, students, and cultural explorers.
• Signature Dishes
  From the Ajitama-Uma Ramen to the rich tonkotsu base and flame-grilled chashu, every dish is carefully crafted. The handmade noodles have the perfect chew, and the broth? Deep, creamy, and full of umami.

A Diverse and Loyal Customer Base
In a multicultural city like Edinburgh, diners from around the world are united by one thing: “Good food”.

BARIUMA offers that, and more. Guests often comment on how the experience feels premium yet approachable.

“I didn’t expect to find such high-quality ramen in Scotland. BARIUMA could compete with shops in Tokyo.”

Behind the Counter: A Franchisee's Dream

The Edinburgh branch is a strong example of what’s possible with the BARIUMA franchise model:

• Full franchise support from Japan and local partners
• Marketing strategies tailored to Western audiences
• Consistent product quality that keeps reviews glowing

The store has also become a community hub, popular among university students for lunch and a favorite of tourists after a day of sightseeing.

Why Edinburgh Matters for BARIUMA’s Global Vision

The store proves that Japanese ramen can thrive in a European capital, and not just survive, but lead. Edinburgh shows us that when culture, quality, and concept come together, location doesn’t limit success.

That’s why BARIUMA is actively seeking new franchise partners in the UK, Europe, and across Africa and Asia.

If you’re passionate about food, culture, and running a business with purpose, BARIUMA could be the perfect match.
