Own a fast-growing Japanese food franchise – bring Buy & Bite to your city
Buy & Bite is a modern Japanese street-food concept specialising in our signature tornado-style omurice – fluffy omelettes served over rice with customisable toppings. It’s a fresh, fast and visually exciting dish that customers love.
With a proven business model, strong brand identity, and growing demand, we’re now expanding across the UK and looking for passionate franchise partners to grow with us.
A UK-born brand built for the UK market
Buy & Bite is proud to be a UK-founded brand inspired by Japanese comfort food. While our flavours come from the Far East, our concept was developed, tested, and refined in the UK market, making it perfectly positioned for nationwide expansion. This unique combination of international inspiration and local expertise is one of the key reasons behind our growing success.
Our menu, pricing, and service model are carefully tailored to the UK market, delivering a fast-casual dining experience that is both authentic and accessible. At the heart of our menu is balance: bold flavours paired with thoughtful choice. From crispy chicken and prawns to freshly prepared tofu and lighter low-carb wraps, our range of protein options caters to a variety of lifestyles. Every dish is served with fresh greens, adding colour, texture, and a more balanced way to enjoy the food you love.
Our business has been built with franchising in mind from day one, supported by a central kitchen in London that ensures consistency, quality, and operational efficiency across every location. With the success of our popular Farringdon flagship restaurant in 2020, we have built a proven system designed for franchise growth.
Having launched in 2023 we have been refining our model and are now in position to expand by franchising, with a restaurant recently launched in Soho and another due to open in Wembley, with more on the way.
Strong momentum in the UK food scene

- Our Wembley branch will open in April 2026.
- Featured in What Franchise as one of 2024’s Top Food Franchise Brands to Watch.
- Showcased at Hyper Japan Festival 2024 & 2025, the UK’s largest Japanese cultural event.
