This summer has graced us with plenty of glorious sunshine which gives us the perfect opportunity to dine al-fresco. Coqbull in Spitalfields has pulled out all the stops offering diners a gorgeous outdoor terrace, adorned with beautiful blooms of colourful flowers. As you can imagine, this place is popular so we’d recommend booking ahead. By 1pm, there wasn’t a spare seat in sight on the outdoor terrace.

Coqbull is a Chicken fan’s dream, with rotisserie chicken, a selection of chicken burgers and chicken wings, non-chicken eaters will be happy to know there are non-chicken options as well, such as beef burgers, veggie burgers, salads and a selection of starters and sides.

I choose the Coq ranch burger, a grilled chicken breast with a punchy ranch sauce that brings the flavour and the sweet potato fries packed a delicious punch with just the right amount of crisp. Coqbull offers diners the chance to get messy with their Dirty Fries, Chorizo Fries and Taco Fries. Having heard about their award-winning wings, it was a no-brainer in ordering those as well, they were tangy with a good amount of spice, the perfect companion to my Coq ranch burger.

My dining partner opted for the rainbow beet salad and cauliflower wings, two great veggie options. The salad was refreshing and full of flavour. Alas, we were both too stuffed to dive into the dessert menu, however by looking at the tables nearby, I could see we were missing out! The menu features waffles, Eton mess whip, a chocolate & salt caramel pot and a warm chocolate chip cookie pan. So leave room for this as they look delicious.

Not ready to go home after an evening dining experience at Coqbull? well, you don’t have to… head downstairs to the intimate speakeasy-style basement space for DJ nights and after-dark events.
