Best Korean Fried Chicken in East London 2026

Dalston

“Chick 'n' Sours' Dalston residency. Same legendary Korean fried chicken, different postcode. The wings in gochujang glaze haven't changed. Neither has the queue.”

Clerkenwell

“Proper Korean fried chicken in an unassuming setting. Seven different flavour options — the yangnyeom (sweet and spicy) is the classic move, but the soy garlic is not to be snuffed. Double-fried for that signature Korean crunch. Pair with soju and don't rush.”
