Englund Gambit is one of the worst gambits for black: loses a central pawn with no sufficient compensation.
The best gambits for black are the Two Knights Defense, the Marshall Attack, and maybe the Benkö Gambit.

My favorite is the Latvian Gambit- played it for years very successfully OTB , but you need to know a large amount of theory.
