While I agree this is a great, fun place to go, it’s maybe not the best place to take the terminally indecisive when you haven’t got long to go before some of the party are catching a train… The one decisive member of the group did not have fun waiting for the others to stop dithering and choose a plate!

I guess it’s great if you have enough money to grab a few plates and get on with it, but if you are on a tight budget then choosing can be difficult. Having seen something in the identification lists you then spend ages wondering if there’s one on the conveyer belt and if it’s going to come round. Probably should have asked, but that would have spoiled the fun!

A choice with large pieces of raw salmon proved too much for the normally fish-loving youngster in our group, but was finished up by the others. I spent ages trying to find something really interesting with seaweed in the cheaper ranges, and finally, under pressure, settled for crabstick and avocado wrapped in seaweed, rice and sesame seeds. Crabstick seems like a cop-out. Unless I’m much mistaken it’s actually fish (cooked fish what’s more) with crab flavouring (at least it was when I was a kid, someone please tell me if I’m wrong). But was VERY tasty, and a second plate was promptly snared for the younger member!

Soup and water is not free: there’s a charge of, I think, £1.75 for miso soup and £1 for water, though they are then unlimited. The miso soup was interesting, mixing saltiness, yeastiness and a slight bitterness. I liked it, but it wouldn’t be to everyone’s taste. I think I saw portions of noodles and rice going round on the cheapest plates too.

Anyway, really enjoyed it and had a good portion and soup for a fiver. Service was great and friendly, and it did end up being fast enough, though there was a queue to pay. It would be very easy to stack up a fair bill though! Watch out when grabbing dishes: it’s quite tricky to balance standing up on the stools and grabbing a moving target! Definitely something that has to be done at least once, and I think I’ll be back…

This is a perfect place to grap a quick bite before catching a train. Every time i have been there has been just about enough space so you don't have to wait. The concept at yo sushi is perfect for a station complex. You take whatever you want on the conveyer-belt so there is no waiting time. You can however order some dishes such as the Chicken Catsu Curry. This in my opinion is the best option as it tastes extremely fresh. You see them preparing it before your eyes.The sushi from the belt can sometimes taste a bit old if you are unlucky. Waiters are friendly and prices are very reasonable for sushi.

We had arranged to get a jacket potato for lunch before my very good friend had to dash off to get on a flight but we were running a bit late so decided to grab something at Paddington so she could hop on the Heathrow Express after throwing some food down her throat.

For speed, convenience and efficiency there is none better than YO! Sushi. Not to mention how fun it is, but I will. It’s really fun! The dishes are colour coded by price and travel past you on a conveyor belt and you just yoink out whichever ones you fancy.

You can also order unlimited miso soup or green tea and you pour your own water from little taps at the table.

The YO! Sushi in Paddington station is even more crazy than your usual as it’s in the middle of everything and it feels like the whole world is going around on conveyor belts round you.

Be careful you don’t get too carried away as the cost can mount as you pile up the brightly coloured plates that include delicious desserts, as well as hot dishes you can order from the menu.
