I love this place. The servers are friendly. The atmosphere reminds me of spending time with my expended family because you feel so welcomed into the restaurant. Most importantly, the food is amazing.
Great food. Not a place you go for the atmosphere. I typically order pick up but sometimes grab lunch. Gotta' love Portuguese cooking. The cheese they serve is delicious. My favourite are the custard tarts.
It is what it is... And DAMN GOOD at it!!. You are not coming here for a romantic night.. You are coming here for some of the best BBQ chicken in town. Plain and Simple.
A classic mom and pops joint where the food speaks for itself.
There is something beautiful about a place that doesn't try to be anything else but true to itself... It's a honest presentation... And damn good food!
AMAZING chicken!!!. My fiance brought home a chicken from there a couple years ago and after that we were hooked! Whenever we want to pick-up a dinner that involves chicken we automatically go for King of the Pigs!!! I absolutely LOVE their chicken and we always order their fries with it that are delicious too. The fries compliment the chicken very well. I'm addicted!!! :)
Really good. I thought the food was great, I ordered the 1/2 chicken sand which with the noodle soup and a salad, my husband had the 1/2 chicken dinner, we both agreed the food was good and th price was right, the place could be a little bigger, but all in all, we will definitely return.
Amazing Chicken. Ive eaten at both locations and definatly prefer the one on hamilton. The potion size os actually really great. All dinners are served with bread, olives and dont forget their authentic chicken oil hot sauce! For 12.50 u xan get a half roasted chicken with either a huge gelping of fries, rice, salad or a combination of two. I definatly recommend this place to people who like a bit of spice.
Go to Hamilton Road location. I've dined at both locations, dinner from Hamilton road and a take out lunch from the Cherry Hill location.
Our dinner was absolutely delicious, the ribs, chicken, vegetables, fries all amazing. The service is definitely lacking, however the food makes up for it!!
Take out lunch from Cherry Hill was good, I do agree with previous comments regarding greasy chicken. The ribs though were fall off the bone and just as delicious as I remember them being.
I would recommend this restaurant for sure, just be sure to hit the Hamilton Road location.
If the customers knew about urbanspoon this would be the highest rated restaurant in London. I've only had the chicken lunch but I've had it a lot.
Had the most wonderful experience here with my boyfriend tonight thought we’d try a new barbecue place and we were absolutely blown away by the service and the food, and the atmosphere of this restaurant! Chicken was so juicy and the skin was crispy and flavourful 10/10, the ribs were fall off the bone 10/10, and don’t get me started with the bread to start…who doesn’t like free fresh bread, plus giant portions!!! and the effort they put into this place bringing over napkins without even asking!! They truly made our night and we will definitely be eating here again!! Thank you for such great service!
First time here at King of Pigs restaurant in East London on Hamilton-Road. I went with a friend who had been there before many times and came highly recommended. Friendly crowd and busy for a Wednesday. Our waitress recommended steak, but my guest strongly recommended octopus. I went to with the octopus. It was excellent and tender, not to big. I would have it again but would forgo boiled vegetables for salad and fries.
I was there on a recent Thursday evening with our wine club. It was a regular spot for our club pre-covid and has had a major renovation in the interim. It has the feel of a modern take out/eat in sports diner with several large screen TVs. We enjoyed a plentiful BBQ chicken dinner (with salad and fries) with croquettes and black olives as appetizers. Staff were friendly and helpful. The food was plentiful, tasty, and reasonably priced. We all enjoyed the event and will surely return. Many thanks.
As my first time going to this establishment, I was blown away with the food and the service, large portions, amazing service, one of our party speaks only Portuguese, they were more than happy to communicate with her in Portuguese. Their house made hot sauce's were delicious, I can't say enough amazing things about this place!!
Since I moved to London 5 years ago, I can count on Rei dos Leitões to consistently deliver delicious, quality food every single time.
Tonight we ordered Dinner for 2 Meal C.

Everything ✅
There really isn’t much we don’t like about this restaurant. We would probably eat here more if we didn’t like to cook at home so much.
If you don’t believe how good the food is, just check out the pictures below and the photo will help you find the restaurant.
Just go now & pickup a bottle of the hot sauce. It deserves a permanent position in every fridge. 💯
Obrigada 👑 of 🐷, Obrigada!!
We enjoyed our dinner here. Very friendly service, cold beer, and a great pulled pork sandwich!

Been there multiple times and it's always good! My daughter tried a sandwich and she loved it! (Shes a picky eater so that means something)
I always get chicken to go from this place, is absolutely delicious, but this time me and my boyfriend decide to have lunch there and the menu is actually good! Great service, friendly staff and yummy food!
Always good food and fast service. Friendly servers and reasonable for the large portions.
The staff is very courteous and professional, the food was delicious, generous in potion sizes and steaming hot! Highly recommend the grilled octopus!
