Chicken Shop isn't a particularly exciting name. There are so many chicken shops in Whitechapel already but I suppose having a rotisserie one over charcoal is at least different to the fried chicken others. This place looks a lot more hipster with mood lighting, shared tables and also having Dirty Burger in the same premises. Having said that nearly everyone was eating the chicken.
It's not the cheapest but the chicken is tender and mildly and simply seasoned. The fries are good and crisp. Coleslaw is standard and needed for balance.
Of the sauces, the hot sauce is probably the best and not too hot (even though they warned me). French's mustard is good for all this type of food and the smokey sauce was more akin to a BBQ sauce.
It provides a different chicken and is close to home. I'll be back and looking forward to drinks too.
