There has been quite a buzz about Chicken Shop since it opened its doors last month.

Not to be confused with the Fried Chicken Shop in Clapham from off the box, this restaurant is run by private members’ club Soho House.

There are two rooms for up to 50 diners, with the option to sit at a table or a communal counter where you can see the chicken up close on the rotisserie.

It feels like you are given a hug as you walk in it is so cosy and homely, enhanced by diner style furniture.

Your Local Guardian:

The menu is simple, reflecting the trend for small-choice menus, giving diners the option of a half, quarter or full chicken.

There are four sides, crinkle chips, butter lettuce and avocado salad, corn on the cob and coleslaw, all costing £4.
