top 10 chicken shops in london

EAT & DRINK
Chicken has been consumed as food by humans for thousands of years. As we discover more about the breeding of chicken, whether they are free-range, organic or conventional, we can try to be as ethical as possible, especially if you're like me and have grown up eating chicken, along with other meat and fish (and some veg!). Almost 30% of chicken is protein... fat, iron, phosphorus (eyes, nails, teeth), potassium, vitamin A, B6, C, D, E and K!*

Now that I have created the 'base' of my article (I won't call it an argument... and yes, my vegetarian friends still like me... unless I offer them chicken wings for the hundredth time at a restaurant), I would like to share with you places in London that make chicken that have left a mark on my taste buds... TimeOut's mentioned two of them, but they've clearly not been to the other places yet! 

1. Assenheims, farringdon

Don't go by the 'looks' of the green sauce when you search for them on Google. It is delicious. You can grab a table at the Farringdon branch.

2. tikkarito, leather lane

Annoyingly, they have deleted their website, but they have a Twitter account. Which makes sense, as they run out of all their food before 2pm, they probably don't need a website... they can focus on cooking those Chicken Tikka Naan Wraps. 

Happy Halloween!! Only treats here!! Come for a naan wrap or Rice Box from Tikkarito. Serving until 2pm! #tikka #indianfood #streetfood #halloween #markets #leatherlanemarket

3. baba g's, pop brixton 

Oh my goodness... their 'Bhangra Burger' is divine.

4. NANdo's (sorry...)

They have loyalty points for regular diners... and the thigh burger is actually quite good! 

Fresco Friday is a go... □ #nandos #periperi #fresco #summer

5. chicken shop, holborn

Probably a nicer version of Nando's, but fresh, marinated and succulent chicken and a Tripadvisor rating of 4.5 out of 5 is a giveaway! 

Let’s lunch together! Did you know: our rotisserie chicken grills were made specially for us? Perfect for an even char. □□

6. roti chai, marble arch

When you really can't be bothered with the queues of Dishoom, this may be an equally good place to check out, especially for their not-so-healthy: deep-fried chicken lollipops. Drool. 

The starters and mains were both delicious! Starters: Agni fire wings □□□pani puri & chicken samosa chaat Mains: Bun chilli chicken I would defo recommend street kitchen menu as I feel like it has more of a variety Great atmosphere, friendly staff and amazing food....defo recommend #halalfoodblog_ #foodie #foodblog #blogger #food #blog #halal #chickenwings #agniwings #panipuri #golgappa #samosachaat #chicken #chaat #bunchilli #chilli #burger #mocktails #indian #rotichai #london

7. breakfast club, LIVERPOOL STREET 

They have recently changed their 'Brinner' menu, so if you're in luck you may get to try the fried chicken and waffles. It even comes with Mac n' Cheese!

Fried Chicken & Waffles with mac & cheese. NAME A MORE ICONIC TRIO. ??? #friedchicken #waffles

8. TGI FRIDAYS, leicester square

The only things I would order here is the 'Jack Daniel's Chicken Wings'... and maybe the Oreo Milkshake. 

Everything was delish but a little overpriced compared to the portions! #tgifridays

9. only jerkin', rupert street market

Crisp, fried jerk chicken, triple-dipped in ginger beer batter, served with fries, coleslaw and jerk gravy. Their twitter handle not only promotes their chicken, but also the latest gigs in town.

What better way to beat the rain! Catch us at @KERB_ west India quays & @streetfoodunion pic.twitter.com/W4xV07XcJ0

10. jamaican shack, under the bridge between waterloo and blackfriars

I'm quite sad that these lovely Jamaican men, who serve jerk chicken and plantain chips or rice under a bridge, who taught me how to say 'plantain' (plaaanteeeen), don't have any presence on the world wide web! I need to do something about this...
