Chick N Rice

Chick N Rice on Longbridge Road serves the halal-certified South Asian fast-food market that the surrounding Barking community supports year-round. The menu leans closer to the Pakistani dhaba tradition than to the polished British-Bangladeshi curry house: biryani and pilao are the backbone, with chicken curry, saag meat and karahi dishes alongside rolls, grilled meats and a full selection of breads. The kitchen runs into the small hours, serving the evening and late-night trade on a stretch of Longbridge Road that remains busy well after the daytime shops close. Regular customers describe pocket-friendly pricing and straight, honest cooking. The halal certification is standard throughout rather than a declared add-on, with the restaurant listed on the Find a Halal Restaurant directory.
