"You’re feeling angry. Your eye is twitching to the beat of Killing In The Name Of. And you’re about ten tourist elbow knocks away from losing it. Head for Coqfighter. Yes, it sounds a bit aggressive, but it’s actually a great little fried chicken spot where you can get involved in their sharing wings, some fries, and a casual margarita or two. As this place is in Soho, it’s better for those waits that are over an hour and a half, but the ten minute walk is worth it for the laid back feel and the therapeutic bonus of dousing some chicken in Korean hot sauce with a paintbrush." - heidi lauth beasley
"Coqfighter or delivering panko fried thigh sandwiches all over Shoreditch, as well as wings served with a variety of sauces. Order here or here." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
"A fried-chicken concept donating £2 from every January special sold to the Red Cross, with multiple outposts in Soho and Boxpark locations participating." - George Reynolds
"We all have that one friend who refers to Soho as ‘a playground of suffering’. And you know what, after spending half of your savings on Oxford Street before having a spectacularly tall tourist sneeze on your forehead, you might be inclined to agree with them. But that’s exactly why you need cool, affordable, casual places like Coqfighter in your restaurant repertoire. They specialise in fried chicken and prime comfort food like butter chicken burgers, a szechuan mayo bao, and your classic wing situation that comes with a banging Korean hot sauce. Honestly, if a couple of their negronis and decorating some drumsticks in soy garlic glaze with a paintbrush won’t calm down your Soho stress, then we don’t know what will." - Heidi Lauth Beasley
"A fried-chicken shop on Beak Street that likewise expanded its portfolio recently across Oxford Street." - Adam Coghlan
