Low sofas and stools with hot pink tables use up most of the space, and sculpted flowers echoing the black, pink and cream colour scheme are scattered over the walls.

Despite the hot pink touches, the main colour scheme comes from the takeaway counter, with neon soft drink cans and sushi decorated with bright orange and green roe.

Besides all the expected sushi options (such as California rolls and salmon sets, but also the less common scallop roll) you’ll find sides like seaweed salads and Japanese pickles, plus hot food such as gyoza (dumplings), chicken katsu curry, tempura, yakitori (skewers) and salmon and chicken teriyaki bento boxes.

The house special sushi set (£6.50) features California rolls, cucumber rolls, salmon, prawn, egg, scallop, tuna and eel nigiri, plus a few slices of salmon sashimi on a little nest of shredded daikon.

Usually the egg is poached in the hot soup, however, Japanika’s broth is just not hot enough so the egg sits raw in the soup, looking rather pitiful until it’s remedied by a reheat.
