UPDATE: Renowned TikTok food blogger Harrison Webb has just put Camden’s trending Funky Chips to the test, and his verdict may surprise fans. In a video shared earlier today, Webb, who has 810,000 followers on TikTok, sampled the viral chip stall that has been making waves for its extravagant loaded fries.
With a price tag of £12.20 for a small portion, Webb tested the popular Funky Chips, which boasts a stellar 4.5 out of 5 stars rating on Google. The stall claims to offer “the best chips in England,” but viewers are left questioning if the hype matches the price.
In his latest video, Webb stated: “Today we’re in Camden trying the new viral Funky Chips. We’ve just spent £12.20 on chips. There’s a lot going on.” His review highlighted the impressive “cheese pull” and the generous portion size, but he quickly pointed out the hefty price, joking, “You’ve got to be Bill Gates to be coming here.”
As the queue for Funky Chips doubled in size during his visit, Webb critiqued the extra charges for toppings, such as crunchy onions and melted cheese. “The crunchy onions are good, but you had to pay extra,” he noted, ultimately rating the experience a mere 3.2 out of 5.
Funky Chips, operating in Camden Market since 2021, promotes its offerings as “more than just snacks” and emphasizes a commitment to culinary creativity. Their menu features options like ‘Masala Chips’ and ‘Cheesy Chips,’ with small portions starting at £8.40.
Webb’s TikTok review has gone viral, amassing 85,000 likes within hours, and sparking a flurry of comments. One viewer quipped, “12 for this *laughing emoji*… in Belgium it’s 2 pounds only and better one.” Others defended the stall, declaring it “well worth the money.”
As Funky Chips continues to attract attention, food lovers in London are left to decide if this viral sensation lives up to its reputation. Webb’s review adds fuel to the conversation surrounding London’s ever-evolving food scene, where price and quality often collide in unexpected ways.
With the spotlight now on Funky Chips, foodies and curious spectators alike are keen to see if the stall can maintain its popularity amidst mixed reviews. What might be next for this viral food destination? Stay tuned as the story develops.
