  • Roost will be Forest Gate's railway arches' new Algerian-spiced rotisserie chicken restaurant

    25/6/26 - updated with the opening date.

    The railway arches on Forest Gate's Winchelsea Road are about to get a boost from Roost, a new rotisserie chicken restaurant that's been set up by a local trio. 

    It comes from the team of chef Amil Ourabah (previously sous chef at The Coach & Horses), Jake Salter and Andrew Neilson, the latter touting his local credentials as being the great-nephew of Terrance Messenger, the last Mayor of Leyton.

    The rotisserie chicken on offer at Roost will feature their own bespoke Algerian spice
