The food is not great...very greasy and very small pieces of chicken and of course ridiculously high prices ( which applies to all KFC's.

The tables were dirty; no one was cleaning them between customers. We ordered a four-piece chicken dinner with poutine fries and coleslaw to share. My husband waited in line and I sat at a booth behind two young, blonde teenage girls. Soon an angry-acting man in a black leather jacket with his surname tooled on the back passed out "Fill Ups", meals with a slice of bread on top, to them and sat down to eat. We consumed good poutine fries, coleslaw that tasted like horseradish, and chicken that was drier than my husband recalled from the 1960s. The man left; the girls stood up and I noted how inappropriately dressed they were for chilly weather. One had on a chiffon dress with spaghetti straps and the other a lacy mullet dress (short in front and long in back) topped with a flannel shirt. As we left a tiny Asian girl in a sweater was insisting on opening the broken door herself, so we and her parents laughed.

I won't be returning, and I seriously doubt I'll visit another KFC again. That says it all.
