Grillers is one of those halal chicken places, which seem to have some popularity with young muslims in East London, if the genuine comment of approval I was able to find on the internet about this place can be separated from astroturf marketing. I have seen it compared to Nandos, (which does not have a branch closer than the one in Stoke Newington).
The shop sells Peri Peri Chicken, Grilled Chicken and Burgers (99p for a small burger, and various 'meal' offers around £1.99), as well as Pizzas. They currently have a buy one get one free offer on 7" pizzas for £1.50. Their unique selling point, in contrast with with Mega Bite and Perfect Fried Chicken, is that although they will also sell what they describe as "Fried Style Chicken", their main chicken offer is grilled chicken - "Healthy without frying, no fat, no oil".
If the use of a restaurant by other customers is an indication of anything worthwhile, anyone wondering where our plastic policemen are 'patrolling' once they have left the safety of the neighbourhood police station might like to know I have seen some of them in here quite often in recent months. Maybe the delicious Peri Peri is preferable to carrying on a few meters up the road past the next door BHS and being confronted with any unpleasantness in the Town Square. Next door to Noble Travel and Money Exchange. Grillers, at some times of day, is also competing for the same market as Moon Pizza at the bottom of the High Street.
