Casa Do Frango Shoreditch

Casa do Frango was founded by Marco Mendes and Jake Kasumov. After years of running bar operations and large-scale electronic music events and parties including Boneca and Unleash, they moved into restaurants. They bring a fun and upbeat vibe to the buzzy dining room here.

The food at the London Bridge and Shoreditch restaurants is inspired by the Portuguese-British Mendes’s upbringing in the Algarve, in particular the fast-casual restaurants in Faro serving grilled chicken with Piri-Piri sauce.

Eating and drinking incredibly well at Casa do Frango can be very reasonable, especially with a range of easy-drinking Portuguese wines, some under £20 per bottle. Alongside the must-order Piri-Piri chicken, standout dishes include the chouriço with black olive mayonnaise and African rice with plantain and crispy chicken skin.
