Where can you find the best roast chicken in London?
The 5 places with the tastiest, plumpiest chicken on a roast dinner in London
The George, The Strand
Loved: The plumpest, juiciest chicken, C.R.I.S.P.Y R.O.A.S.T P.O.T.A.T.O.E.S, the best cauliflower cheese dish in London and the wonderful parsnip mash with mustard seeds. This was just sooooo gorgeous a roast.
Loathed: Nothing. I guess the carrots and cabbage were only good rather than great.

The Gladstone Arms, Borough
Loved: Everything. Plump, juicy chicken, crispy roast potatoes, fluffy Yorkie and tons of flavour. Indian flavour.
Loathed: Well. Is it a roast dinner? It comes with a spicy sauce - not gravy. Your call I guess.

The Star Of The East, Poplar
Loved: Best yorkie of the year so far, good consistency on the gravy, chicken super succulent and parsnips unusually flavoursome. It's affordable too.
Loathed: Roasties seemed a tad deep-fried, gravy could have had more flavour, pigs in blankets were cremated somewhat. Imperfections really.

The Duchess, Marylebone
Loved: Meats were particularly good - juicy chicken supreme, great texture on pork leg and silky beef.
Loathed: Yorkshire pudding was just a huge mass of dried-out batter that had been sitting under a heat lamp for far too long.

The Hereford Arms, Gloucester Road
Loved: Buttery braised leek, imperfect roasties but tasted glorious in duck fat, corn-fed chicken was plump and yorkie was unusually excellent.
Loathed: Gravy was too gloopy and salty.
