Harden's says
After successful stalls at Boxparks in Croydon and east London, the famed purveyor of fried chicken burgers and K-wings has found a permanent home, in Soho.
Harden's survey result
Summary
The “divine chicken” at these funky East-meets-West outlets – founded by three mates who missed the Korean fried chicken they ate in Melbourne’s Chinatown – is “worth the pain of the uncomfortable seating and queue”. The business has graduated from home cooking and pub pop-ups to five permanent sites with a Soho flagship and a thriving delivery arm.
Summary
Fried chicken specialists who have elevated the fast-food classic to delectable and “moreish” culinary heights – this Soho outfit was founded by a trio of transplanted Melburnians who missed one of their home city’s prime nibbles. They also have outlets in King’s Cross, Finsbury Park and the Boxparks in Shoreditch and Croydon, as well as delivery kitchens in Brockley and Balham.
Summary
“Oh-so-dirty chicken, that is actually fresh and crispy and so so moreish” (“soooo tasty, the green chilli chicken burger is fab!”) wins continued praise for this finger-lickin’ group, which operates out of Shoreditch Boxpark and various take-away and delivery locations, as well as this Soho forever home. “Service is casual… it feels like it’s deliberately trying to be a dive!”.
Summary
“Scrumptious, Korean-style, fried-chicken burgers – so crunchy, and topped with the most excellent flavour combinations”, plus K-wings, bao, and other finger-lickin’ goodies have won a big fanclub for these Aussie-owned pitstops, which graduated in June 2019 from two Boxpark locations (in Shoreditch and Croydon) to this new Soho permanent-home, with its mix of communal and small tables, on, wait for it, Beak Street…
