A. Z.

A wonderful, very clean and well organised store. It has a wide variety of foods to choose from. Here you can find Korean, Chinese, Thai foods and much more. Once you visit for the first time, I promise you will be coming back regularly. Staff are great in the store, always helpful and just simply very nice. I am so happy that Oxford has such a wonderful store 😍

One of the best Asian markets of town. A good selection of noodles, sweeties and sauces. Also the kimchi (my favourite from bibligo) and frozen shrimps are my usuals. Variety of alcoholic beverages to try too.

T. D.

Variety of food ingredients, sometimes can find expiring goods if u don't mind. Staffs are friendly and efficient.

W. L.

Decent Korean grocery store but not with all the items we needed, still good though

S. R.

Pretty good, got some nice stuff but also frequently having issues with the freezers breaking and issues with supply chain. Gone there half a dozen times for the giant prawns but they are consistently out of stock.

M. C.

Great little Korean supermarket with a good selection of items. Store is clean and bright. Staff are always friendly and helpful. The aisles are a bit tight though and they don't carry any Korean skincare items, only food.

A. G.

Amazing selection of food! Great for if you want to find your classic favourites or try something new :)

p. l. h.

Very cool selection of food you won't find in other shops in the area.

K. F.

Love this place. My go to for kimchi, dumplings and anything Korean food wise. Prices and selection are really good and I find they are usually the cheapest compared to Chinese supermarkets for Korean and Japanese food. Service has been good from my experience. They operated a queuing system for social distancing.

E. O.

Small but lots of Asian food squeezed in. Spend some time checking the shelves there are lots of treats to be discovered.

A. G.

Nice good quality food. Friendly staff . All wears masks . I

J. D.

Nifty Korean supermarket with lovely, friendly staff. Good mix of staples, snacks and specials. Fresh and frozen food available as well as store cupboard staples. Plenty of sweets and treats like mochi and pocki but also very good selection of noodles, savoury snacks, pickles, tofu, gochujang, and many more.

K. L.

Love this place. But doesn't always have everything I need.

G. P.

I loved how meticulously they packed and protected my items. All cling wrapped AND bubble wrapped, placed carefully and tightly into each box. Cold items were also placed into a foam cooler box. Delivery order was correct and took a few days only. Will definitely order again. Thank you!

A.

Very goood, variety of products, also cheaper compared to other oriental stores in Oxford, would recommend🤩🙌

V. L. L.

Fantastic store, plenty of choices, reasonable prices, salmon sashimi is fresh and very tasty, Feel great and happy that I can get everything I need from the store. And friendly staff and the Manager Gerald was extremely helpful especially when we were choosing the food, he also got back to us promptly with our queries. Thank you very much .

M. M.

Very reasonable price and many variety of Japanese and Korean food. I usually buy Japanese rice, Japanese seasonings, ice cream. Nattou, kimuchi etc...when I miss japan I come here and buy some stuff. Also the shop is clean and nice.

D. V.

Update:21.10.2020 Went back to this shop and the staff member was really lovely talking to every customer and they had Covid measures well made as well. So many more japanese items as well :)!! Customer service has definitely improved and will be back again :) Having more brown rice can help me a lot! Good selection of food and very clean store! There were a lot of variety in Japanese food as well :) However as I complemented the Japanese selection, the staff member was very rude and made me feel uneasy. I would come back for the food but I hope the customer service will improve.

Great collection of Korean groceries

P. W.

They have a lot of groceries and food to choose from. It's cool! The place isn't so accessible though. You need to walk for a while. They have non-Korean food as well but most are Korean products. Given that the UK food sucks, you should visit this store (or any Asian food stores in town will do). There's also a wide range of instant noodles, both from Korea and from other places. They also have a variety of Korean drinks and frozen food.

D. Y.

I have been a loyal customer for a few years. Its great selection of Korean food soothes me whenever I become nostalgic. Only Koreans know how important it's to have a constant supply of Kimchi and ramen...The only thing is it's slightly overpriced compared to Chinese stores. Also, sometimes they sell expired or almost expired food (e.g., some Kimchi bags balloon out, which is a sign that it's no longer suitable to consume). So just look out when you go shopping!

E. G.

Brilliant asian market, all the Korean and Japanese stuff I need. Bought some really delicious oyster and enoki mushrooms, several ramen, milk tea, Msg powder. Really reasonably priced!!!

A. R.

The shop is well stocked and is very clean. The staff are helpful too. I wish they would add items with photos of actors and actresses though like products they endorse etc.

t.

Excellent competitor to the Oriental Supermarket on Hythe Bridge Street. The stock the top Korean kimchi, Chongga. Loads of instant noodles, loads of interesting drinks including blueberry and pineapple versions of the Japanese Ramune soda. Great fresh produce and Korean meals to take away. Variety of gyozas and frozen seafood specialities. Regular stopping off point for me now when visiting Oxford.

F. M.

A nice little store on Cowley rode providing the majority in needs for Asian cooking. Frozen delicacies from dumplings to takoyaki are all available even the thinly cut beef called bulgogi, which of course can also be used for other dishes and makes cooking substantially easier. The store even has pre peeled garlic, which makes the preparation for cooking slightly less time consuming. Sushi rice can also be bought there alongside different sweets and beverages of Asian nature. The employees are also kind and happy to help if questions arise. On a whole there is nothing negative about this store, at least I have not been able to find it.

M. H.

Wide variety of Korean food. From fresh to frozen, with plenty of packets too. Instant noodles, ramen etc and awesome snacks. Polite and friendly service with fair prices !

R. H.

Great shop with fair prices for all Korean and other oriental food and drink

M. A.

Not just an ordinary oriental supermarket. Seoul Plaza has Japanese Gobo (burdock) and Konnyaku which are quite reasonable price. There are all sorts of Dorayaki in the frozen food section.💕 The staff are also always very polite and friendly (especially the British male staff).

D.

Lovely, helpful staff. A great selection of products at reasonable prices.

L. G.

Fantastic Store full of amazing Korean foods and all of the ingredients I need to cook my favourite Korean dishes

C. “. S.

Great little supermarket with all the Korean essentials. Nice ready made food too (kimchi jiggae, kimbap, etc). Very clean.

A. T.

Amazing produce, can only get certain things from here. Highly recommended

M.

l love this shop. There are a lot of Japanese food as well as Korean food!. Well organized, modern, and friendly stuff.

J. C.

Clean, and well organized products on shelves that we don't need to take much effort to find what we need.

M. C.

I found this today by accident on Cowley Road--opened two days ago. I'm really happy because we used to rely on the same chain in Golders Green before we moved to Cambridge and then the store on Mill Road until we moved again. Excellent, now we can get kimchi in Oxford! My first pocari sweat for several years.

N. O.

Stock not as good as it used to be. But staff friendly and prices reasonable.

c. m.

Always go for my oriental food shopping. Best place in Oxford, staff very helpful and huge variety of ramen 🍜😊

S. K.

Quite small but a decent place to get some Korean supplies. It's a shame there arent any ready to go food here but not bad

A. N.

A great place where you got your not-only-Korean-but-also-other-Asian groceries.

柊.

also Chinese and Japanese food are there. however when you want to buy a instant Japanese rise, you need to go other shop. Without that point, I think here is the best Asian shop.

C. M.

Amazing shop. As someone into korea it's great to be able to buy all products there. the pumpkins are very great.

A. B.

Great place for Asian groceries. More likely to carry Korean food (I guess the clue is in the name), very small selection of Japanese goods.

T. O.

Fantastic Korean store, I wish there was a better choice in Swindon Too.

D. P.

Great place if you looking for some Asian snack and drinks. Also have many spices, vegetables and other useful things for kitchen.

(Translated) Really good here !! First, there is only one Korean mart in Oxford, and there are so many fresh foods like Jokbal fish cake, seaweed, seaweed stem, gimbap bread on Friday and Monday every week. I'm really going every day I recommend here if you want to try korean food you have to go there! especially korean staffs were so kind👍🏻 (Original) 여기 정말 좋습니당!! 일단 옥스포드에서 하나밖에 없는 한인마트이고 매주금요일과 월요일에 족발 어묵 미역줄기 김밥 빵 등등 신선한 음식들도 너무 많아서 대만족입니다ㅜㅜㅠㅠ 특히 직원분들이 너무 친절해서 감동이였습니다ㅜㅠㅠㅠ 한국인여자분과 남자분 너무 친절하세요ㅜㅜㅠㅠ 정말 매일 가고있습니다 ㅎㅎㅎ I recommend here if you want to try korean food you have to go there! especially korean staffs were so kind👍🏻

H. K.

(Translated) Korean food such as instant noodles, cold noodles, kimchi and seasonings are available. Japanese and Chinese foods are also substantial. Japanese cooked liquor is sold, credit cards can be used for small payments, and I like it the most in East Asian supermarkets in Oxford. (Original) インスタント麺、冷麺、キムチ、調味料をはじめとする韓国食品が揃っている。日本や中国の食品も充実している。日本の調理酒が売ってるし、少額決済でもクレジットカードが使えるし、オックスフォードにある東アジア系のスーパーの中で一番好き。

M. H.

(Translated) Shop mainly for Korean goods. You can find vegetables for Korean cuisine as well as Korean pork roasts. Wide selection of packaged foods from East Asia. Mostly, however, staff do not know what to sell, unless exceptionally of Korean origin. You can't go anywhere else in Oxford if you are serious about cooking Korean or Japanese cuisine. (Original) Obchod hlavně korejským zbožím. Lze najít zeleninu pro korejskou kuchyni i např. korejskou vepřovou pečeni. Široký výběr balených potravin z východní Asie. Personál většinou ale neví, co prodává, pokud výjimečně není korejského původu. V Oxfordu nelze jít nikam jinam, pokud to myslíte s vařením korejské nebo japonské kuchyně vážně.

W. T.

(Translated) The disadvantage is that things are often out of stock. (Original) 缺點是常常東西會缺貨。

J. K.

(Translated) The choice is not so much as Oxford, but the faces of the people coming and going on the street are not so nice or pleasant. (Original) 선택폭이 옥스포드라그런지 적은편 길거리오가는사람들 얼굴이그리반갑거나기분좋지만은않음 밝은대낮에다녀와야함

S.

(Translated) Literally, Korean Koreans come in lots of delicious food! So good (Original) 말 그대로 한인마트라 맛있는거 많이 들어와요! 너무 좋아요

L. G.

(Translated) There are Korean, Chinese, and Japanese ingredients at reasonable prices! (Original) 有韓國、中國、日本食材，價格公道！

Y. J.

(Translated) There are many kinds, kind and good ~ (Original) 종류도 많고 친절하고 좋아요~

롬.

(Translated) All Korean food is almost there, even till the side dish is touched (Original) 모든 한국음식 거의다있다 심지어 반찬까지 ㅜㅜ감동

(Translated) It's been a while since I pecked here and I like Korean food. (Original) 여기 쪼아 오랜만에 한국음식 먹으니 좋아유

(Translated) It's good that they sell a lot of tailan food (Original) 꼬리안음식많이팔아서좋음
