On arrival at the pick up window I was greeted by a young fellow who wanted to hand me a box, I requested a bag, and he proceeded to put the box in the bag with no regard for gravity as a consequence the chips and chicken were all messed up and looked like they had been through a whirlpool.On arrival home I opened the box and saw 3 of the smallest pieces of chicken I had ever seen, remember I am 51 years old, seen the odd piece of chicken in my time. What annoyed me was not only where the pieces small but 3 of my 5 pieces were drumsticks or wings, with hardly half a mouthful on each. Lucky I got the extra 2 pieces.This annoyed me but the proverbial straw was when I opened the potato and gravy, a small tub for sure, even smaller when it is less than half full. Not knowing whether I was being punk’d or not I laughed and chose to share my experience with KFC Engadine the store I purchased from.After explaining to the “Assistant Store Manager” she offered to replace the 3 small pieces. Curious I sort clarification, “so you want me to endure this experience, drive back to your store so you can partly replace my order?”. Yes was the curt reply you don’t have to do it tonight.I think you are missing the point was my response I I set of to outline me KFC experience and share with as many people as possible.This all on night I was racing home to watch the KFC Big Bash on TV, unfortunately I had no KFC to eat whilst viewing.I intend to go back when the store manager is not to busy to speak with me.

We got home to find that among the 10 pieces of chicken that were included in our pack, as well as them being the dried and shrivelled, half of them were wings. This is not the first time they've done this to us (in relation to receiving too many wings in a set menu). If we're paying nearly this sort of money (about $3 per piece), I'd expect better than this.Also, at lunchtimes and in the evenings in general, forget trying to park in the carpark, or you'll get stuck and won't be able to get out. Drive thru is similar. I often see cars banked up on the road due to long lines in the drive thru. Pretty dangerous.Lastly; forget going late at night if you've got the munchies. I've been there at about 9-9:30pm and they almost always run out of chicken. Go to Maccas instead.

The staff were friendly and got my order correct. In the past, this place has been inconsistent for me and I wasn't a fan. However, today they started to change my mind. Keep up the good work and I will definitely give you 5 stars next time.

It is one of the better KFC locations, although they did not provide wipes or serviettes. We did receive 2 extra sauces, which was a nice touch, and I even found half a chip in my popcorn chicken, which was a bonus. My friend thought the server was attractive, and the atmosphere was friendly towards both customers and my friend. I also appreciated being able to eat my meal in my car without feeling judged, unlike at some other places. However, when a large family of 50 arrived next to my car, I felt like it may not be the best spot for me.
