Yauatcha City opened in May 2015 in Broadgate Circle, just outside Liverpool Street Station. This is Yauatcha’s second UK location following the success of its award winning restaurant in Soho.
Yauatcha City is an all-day dim sum teahouse, where friends and family gather to catch up over a wide selection of dim sum, wok dishes, tea and cocktails. To complement the cuisine, the drinks menu comprises nearly 40 types of tea, as well as cocktails inspired by Chinese ingredients and a broad wine and Champagne list.
Yauatcha’s first standalone patisserie, Yauatcha Patisserie, is located just below the restaurant, where Chinese heritage and modern European cooking techniques have inspired the pastry team to create a range of unique macarons, petits gateaux and chocolates.
Taste of Yauatcha menu will be served during the following times; Monday - Saturday 12pm - 5:30pm and 8pm - Close. Excluding special days. A curated selection of our signature dishes, including a small eat, main and dessert.

We waited 2hours & 20minutes for our food which came out stone cold. Then couldnt eat the food. The restaurant manager was helpful and took these items off the bill - 0/10 experience

The staff is helpful and friendly. Food is tasty but the portion is ridiculously small. They also really need to upgrade their ventilation - cooking smells all over the restaurant which you don’t expect in this type of place. The decorations are dated, It feels like a fast food chain rather than a premium range restaurant. I much prefer the one in Soho.

The staff were friendly but the waiting time was to long and the mains which we ordered were cold and had to be sent back three times and still were not at an acceptable temperature.

Not worth the price, I was not satisfied with the price and food. The beef was too salty and chicken. Desserts were too sweet. Cocktails were nice though.
