Fast food is always what it is. Fast, cheap, basic and no frills. However any day we prefer here than the opposite number on Marsh. Needing a Sunday roast recently and being in the middle of a house move we went to KFC. When ordering from the kids at the counter, there was an abundance of flies. Having been in commercial hospitality for years we wondered why, in winter-time, the appropriate fly-killing regime was so ineffective. Not a good look. Our kids love popcorn chicken and everything was eaten. So, good result. A really good family meal was purchased. But being between 2 homes we needed to eat in situ. So our huge bag of food was provided and very much enjoyed. But eating in we had to ask plates and cutlery. The only cutlery able to be provided were plastic take-away teaspoons. With a bunch of kids, splitting the meal into the take-away boxes (AKA plates) using these little red spoons was not fun. Very few serviettes provided given we were eating with our fingers. Come on Mr Ken Tuckey - you make millions out of the public and make the lives of chickens miserable. At least kill the flies and provide plastic plates and proper knives and forks... Out of interest, why do you serve mashed potato as well as chips...?!

Service was brisk and friendly, chicken as you'd expect.

I recently had the freshest KFC I've ever tasted at this place. The staff were friendly and efficient, despite the busy store. read more I recently had the freshest KFC I've ever tasted at this place. The staff were friendly and efficient, despite the busy store.
