About HFC
HFC is a fried chicken takeaway at 19 London Rd in London, and it extends beyond chicken to pizza with a stuffed crust option. The chicken range includes chicken and chips, with a two piece meal, and wings are also on offer. Cheesy pizza garlic bread comes alongside the pizza. Burgers are served with cheese, fries and salad, so chicken, wings, pizza and burgers all sit on one list. A value meal rounds out the choices.

Customer Review Summary
Chicken is what reviewers raise most, and mostly as a complaint. Several describe it as dry after sitting in the food warmer, cold and tasting day old, or undercooked, with chips said to taste of reused oil and to be soggy with grease. One reviewer who returned the chicken says the owner replied that he was happy with it, and another describes the man at the counter as rude and pressing for cash payment. A long-time customer reports smaller portions since new ownership, with wings the size of a nugget. Pizza splits opinion. One reviewer praises the base texture and generous toppings, though the stuffed crust lacked cheese and mushrooms were swapped for jalapeño. Another found it burnt, extremely salty and short on toppings. One reviewer reports a sharp piece of plastic inside the cheesy pizza garlic bread. On the positive side, one lunch diner enjoyed a juicy, cheesy beef burger with hot fries and a cucumber salad, found the staff friendly and unrushed, and another recommends the value meal.

“Avoid, avoid. Just had chicken and chips, very poor quality chicken had been in the food warmer for quite a while and was very dry, chips tasted like they had been cooked in oil that had been used repeatedly. Never again, food went in one way and came out the other at the same speed. Beware of the 5 star reviews”

“Been going here for years. New ownership has taken the quality of the food down drastically. Tried to give it a chance but the portions get smaller and smaller each time. Wings are the size of a nugget at this point. Would definitely not recommend.”
