Been to this pub a few times over the years for a mixed grill and never been disappointed with the food. It's a little on the pricey side because of the location, but always serves up a decent mixi.
Beer selection is great too. Lady behind the bar this time was very helpful and recommended a beer I'd not tried before. Gave me a sample and she was right, it was lovely so I had that as my second pint. Fantastic service.
The food here was incredible and the atmosphere is relaxed. Highly recommend the mixed grill signature dish but everything else that we got was also amazing.
Unfortunately have to remove one star as a member of our party was forced to pay for a Guinness that he ordered by accident despite us being a party of 20.

Randomly popped in here on the way to a concert. What a gem!
Service was excellent, food was amazing. The place has bags of character and feels warm and friendly, would definitely recommend.

Hen & Chickens might not look anything special from the outside but don't be fooled - the food is top notch. We visited for lunch recently and it was fantastic. We shared the tikka cod for starter which was delicious, thick and flaky. My rogan josh main course was excellent too, as was the perfectly crispy naan bread. Our meal was just short of £60 for the cod, a main each, a rice, naan and a couple of drinks and it was worth every penny. Well worth the few minutes' walk from the city centre.
Haven't been for a while but food is tasty and well cooked. This place never fails to please. Staff are always super friendly and out of all of the places I've been there mixed grill is still the best.
