The Dishes

Sushi Push Pots serves their creations in interactive push-pop containers that you literally push up to eat, similar to Smarties candy tubes. The Devon spicy tuna roll features fresh rice made daily and is accompanied by a miso clotted cream that the reviewer particularly loved. The Tempura King prawn with avocado is another standout option, generously drizzled with soy sauce for maximum flavor. For non-sushi lovers, there is a roast Yorkshire beef option topped with pickled rhubarb and Worcestershire sauce that adds a unique twist to the concept.

The Experience

The dining experience at Sushi Push Pots is inherently fun and nostalgic. The push-pop mechanism transforms eating into an interactive game that reminds customers of childhood candy experiences, specifically the satisfaction of pushing up Smarties tubes. This novelty factor makes it more than just a meal - it's an entertainment experience. The concept is fresh and engaging, designed to be social media-friendly and memorable.

Value & Pricing

Each push pop costs £10 and includes a drink, making it a reasonable price point for a complete sushi experience in London. This pricing is competitive for the novelty factor and the inclusion of a beverage.

Notable Moments

I finished everything in the morning. There's something about these that's just so fun. It kind of reminds me of my childhood.
Two owners quit their jobs only a month ago to set this up. So, go easy on them. It's going to get busy.

The Verdict

Sushi Push Pots represents an exciting new concept in London's food scene, combining quality ingredients with interactive entertainment. The reviewer was clearly impressed with the fresh rice, creative flavor combinations, and the nostalgic joy of the push-pop mechanism. This restaurant is ideal for anyone looking for something Instagram-worthy and fun, whether you are a sushi enthusiast or prefer non-traditional options like the Yorkshire beef. Given the viral nature of the concept and the recent opening, the reviewer recommends visiting soon while still being kind to the new owners as they navigate the anticipated rush.
