Best Fried Chicken in London?

It's the convenience food of 21st century London. Once upon a time it was fish and chips, and before that pie and mash, but nowadays its cheap fried chicken that dominates the High Streets.
 
Morleys is great when you're pissed and eating it on the way home in the dark, but pretty scarey in the daylight hours when you can see what you're eating.

the darkness is where it belongs.
i pretend it never happened the day after - morleys is one ugly bird.
 
I know it is a proper restaurant rather than a post pub grease bath, but the fried chicken here is the best I have eaten in this country.

Are they related to Foxton's by any chance?
I can't see £14 chicken and chips meeting with the approval of Urbanites. Accusations of being hipster gentrification wanker will be winging your way shortly I predict.
 
^ Yeah £14 is a bit steep tbh.

I don't eat meat very often, but the thought of a good bit of fried chicken is something that will make me salivate (and IMO it is one of the most enticing ways to cook chicken). I wouldn't go as far as hipster gentrification wanker accusations mind you. But £14 is a bit ott.

When I was living in Jerez there were two chicken places near me. The chicken was cooked in a rotisserie and you could get a whole one for about 5€. One did amazing fried chicken, to order. You could get a variety of sides, usually cooked/made to order, too. I'd love something similar in the UK.

Theres load of rotisserie chicken in London, particular in areas with high Arabic/north eastern population. Finsbury Park and Green Lanes have loads, as does Edgware Road. Just got to keep an eye out.

The thread was about fried chicken though, rotisserie is not the same thing (although is nice in its own right, no dispute there).
