Slim Chickens is a relatively new franchise that entered a very competitive fast food market in London. Their main slogan is "Life changing chicken". Being a student in London and coming here almost every week when I`m studying, I can say that it indeed lives up to the slogan and here is why:
First of all, the atmosphere of this place is very nice and cozy. The place is made in American old-school style. The combination of color decisions on the wall, seating and tables make you feel relaxed and comfortable. The music is mostly smooth jazz which once again underlines the classic American feeling to it.
Customer service is good overall. The staff is very charming and helpful, they know everything about their products. If you decide to eat in, they will give you a table number and will bring your food right to your table. They offer a free refill on their soft drinks and have a variety of beer and milkshakes. Next to the counter, there is a station where you can help yourself with forks, napkins, and even wet-wipes, which is unusual for a fast food place to offer them completely free. Tables are mostly clean, when it gets busy, you can always ask a member of staff to clean your table and they would do it for you. The food is served very fast.
There is a good variety of food. From burgers and tenders to salads and sweets. SlimChikens tenders are not what you probably assume them to be. Somehow they managed to reimagine a regular chicken tender into a juicy, crispy piece of chicken which is full of flavor. Their tender meal is served with a big amount of fries and very soft garlic toast. They have a big variety of sauces which come free as the part of your meal and they also play an important role in how this place is changing the fried chicken game.
Overall, me being a student, I come to this place at least once a week when I`m studying. The location is perfect as it is right in the centre of London, next to Bond Street Station and Selfridges shop (which means that if there is a shock drop of yeezys, you can get there in less than a minute to get your big drip or make a check). The value for money is as good as it gets as you are getting the top quality chicken for a price of generic fast food place. This is a life changing chicken and it ranks on the top of my personal rating of fast food restaurants in London.
