US chicken and waffle restaurant chain Sweet Chick is set to make its London debut in Oxford Circus this autumn.
Founded in Brooklyn by restaurateur John Seymour in 2013, and backed by rapper Nas, Sweet Chick currently serves its take on modern American comfort food across five locations in New York and Los Angeles.
Sweet Chick's first UK outpost is expected to feature its signature fried chicken and waffles, Southern inspired classics such as ‘Biscuits & Gravy’, ‘Shrimp & Grits’ and ‘Mac n Cheese’ and new specials influenced by Sweet Chick’s new home. An extensive drinks list, including signature cocktails and local brews from London Fields Brewery, will be available as well.
“I can’t wait to bring the Sweet Chick community to the UK. The food scene is massive in London, but we hope we can offer something fresh with our take on southern inspired staples and the best fried chicken and waffles this side of the Atlantic," Seymour said.
