"To grab and go Covent Garden is an exhausting place. Chances are you’ll end up in the background of some poor tourist’s video, effing and blinding, as your paper shopping bag rips apart with the last of your patience. That’s why it’s so important to know where your nearest fried chicken specialist is. Chick ‘N’ Sours’ cool and casual basement has all of the K-pop chicken sandwiches, beef dripping fries, and sour cocktails you could need after a day of stressful shopping." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing

Chances are you’ll end up in the background of some poor tourist’s video, effing and blinding, as your paper shopping bag rips apart with the last of your patience.

This cool and casual basement has all of the K-pop chicken sandwiches, beef dripping fries, and sour cocktails you could need after a day of stressful shopping. If you’re after a quick pint and something light to keep you going, you’re definitely going to want to get involved in the disco wings." - heidi lauth beasley

"Chick ‘n’ Sours has always been a safe space for hunkering down with fried chicken, and the Mexinese nachos at the laid-back Seven Dials spot are similarly comforting. Perfectly layered, sturdy chips come drizzled with nacho cheese, which doesn’t overpower, and are topped with tangy kimchi which cuts through all the delicious orange goo. You’ll find yourself chasing the drizzled szechuan chicken and bacon ragout around your plate with a chip-shovel until you’ve scooped up every last speck. There’s just the right amount of experimentation." - sinead cranna

"Chick ‘N’ Sours is one of those casual restaurants that’s perfect for almost any meeting with friends. Including that friend you met at your mate’s ironic Dirty Dancing party two years ago, and has somehow made this meet-up a reality despite your 86 “busy this week, but let’s definitely do next week!” texts. This cheap and cheerful Covent Garden spot has a proper crowd-pleaser of a menu with Korean fried chicken sandwiches, disco wings, bang bang cucumbers, and beef dripping fries. As the name suggests there are also plenty of sour cocktails that will hopefully take the sting out of the fact you end this meal by saying “this next month is chaos, but you know, see you soon”. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Sinead Cranna
