Ugly Dumpling Brixton

Ugly Dumpling isn’t your typical dumpling restaurant. Born out of a love for street food and a curiosity for global flavours, this cozy spot takes a simple idea - dumplings and spins it into something playful, bold, and a little unexpected. The menu’s a love letter to fusion: East meets West, comfort meets creativity. Think Pork Belly and Aromatic Duck sitting happily alongside Curry Paneer and Halloumi & Courgette. Think Cheeseburger dumplings or Mushroom & Truffle dumplings.

Everything’s handmade, and packed with flavour. It’s clear there’s a serious respect for ingredients here, nothing fussy, just good food done well. Even the sides and desserts (yes, there’s a Nutella dumpling) have that same mix of fun and finesse.

Whether you’re plant-based, gluten-free, or just dumpling-obsessed, there’s something here that’ll make you smile. Ugly Dumpling is less about sticking to rules and more about celebrating food without borders. It's where global fusion feels genuinely personal.
