It comes after Korean fried chicken shop chain Chick 'n' Sours shut its Haggerston and Seven Dials restaurants in London as it was "no longer viable" to keep them open.

The chain first opened in 2015 and was loved by Londoners for its sweet and sour cocktails, crispy chicken and seaweed crack seasoning.

One of the restaurant’s signature dishes was the Hot Chicken Bun which featured fried chicken thigh, house pickles, slaw, and a piquant sauce.

In a post on , the restaurant's co-founder, David Wolanski, said the chain had hung on for "as long as we could". The post read: "Hello, it’s with mixed emotions I’m here to tell you that we have closed our Chick ‘N Sours restaurants in Seven Dials and Haggerston.

“Sunday night was our last day of trading. We do what we do because we love it, fuelled by passion and a desire to provide guests with awesome food and memorable dining experiences. But that’s not enough these days.

“We hung in there as long as we could but I’m afraid that we’ve now reached the point where operating the two restaurants just isn’t viable any more and it makes no commercial sense to continue.

"The casual dining restaurant model is broken, but that’s for another post. It’s been an incredible journey from when Carl & I came up with the idea of opening the best chicken shop in the 10 years ago on the back of my scooter."
