KFC service in again kfc

The workers are not doing a really good job and also they are greeting their customers. The service is really bad because we order our food and it took almost 25 minutes to get our food and also I ordered two mash bowls and it took 35 minutes to get it and my child was hungry and they took so long to get our mash bowls so she didn't have the chance to eat. So just letting u know that u need to work or to talk to the employees at the area.

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

This was the filthiest place I have ever been in. I am not the only customer who saw this. While I know they are individually owned, it hurts your brand and the other owners who take pride in their establishments. The inside trash cans were full and overflowing. They must have emptied earlier and just set it outside the door. The smell of the place was so...

KFC service / theft

On Thursday the 13th December at 15h00 I wanted to buy a Variety lunchbox and 2 of Streetwise two meals at Sediba Mall Hartebeespoort KFC. Please chech your cctv footage for confirmation.
At first the counter told me I owe R110 rand, I asked if the cash register is not working, I wanted a slip. Only then did the lady use the register, I paid, but the change was wrong(as displayed), I called her back, and she then called the manager, they claim to forgot to add the Streetwise 2s. This employee or more of them, do not add items on the register, so it does not show as sales, I am sure they are thieves and are stealing from the owner of this store. You need to let him know and to investigate this.
Thank you
Frensch

KFC lack of service and attitudes of employees.

The Incident occurred on a Thursday in November of 2018. The Franchise is located on Washtenaw ave near the boarder of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti, Michigan. I walked into the building and went to the counter. I observed that none of the employees appeared to be busy. All were essentially walking around ignoring customers. I stood there for approximately five minutes with no employing saying a word to me. The only time anyone came to the counter was when a pizza delivery man brought there meals. A heavy set woman with red hair extensions, who appeared to be a manager, quickly came to counter to pay for the meals and walk back away from the counter. Again nothing was said to anyone. By this time other customers began to come to the counter. Another manager walked out to fill his cup with a soft drink and walk back behind the counter, and say nothing to any of the customers. Another employee walked by and scowled at the customers. Enough was enough and I decided to leave. The entire time that had elapsed was at least ten minutes. This gives new meaning to the term fast foods. Normally I don't complain and I realize the public can be a pain to serve, I've been there. Nothing could this justify treating customers this was way.

KFC delivery service

I placed an order at 14:15 for just 10 zinger wings - and it's now 15:45 almost two hours later and I still haven't recieved my order and when I called to cancel they didn't want me to cancel. This is very unfair service, both the calling and the delivery services. I don't think I'll ever use it again and I definitely will not recommend it. I'm really appauled with the services that I received and I'm upset because KFC is usually good

KFC food and dirty store

Hi, I purchased a Hawaiian burger meal last night from your store in Galleria Mall, needless to say food disappointing yet again. Burger fillet was cold, burger had no lettuce, it was falling apart basically. The fillet was cold n gummy like it was fried in the morning and kept aside...

Besides the tasteless food, your store needs to be cleaned thoroughly, as we entered there was a dirty mop n cleaning stuff right at the doorway, in the store itself had a terrible vile odour which makes you want to throw up.

Just some info, my family opted to have Macdonalds coz they hate KFC, but I said no let's give them another try, well I was highly disappointed to say the least.

Terrible food and honestly a health consultant should be auditing your store soon!

Just orderd a break is wrap and only 1min after ordering and paying I get told there's a 6min waiting time for the egg. And to make matters worse I waited about 5min just to place the order. No one at front counter to take my order. Everyone busy in kitchen and and no one to take orders at counter. (KFC Newton Park / Port Elizabeth)there should always be a person at the front counter

KFC management

The manager Monica Hicks is very disrespectful to the employees yelling and degrading them in front of customers. One of the employees started crying due to the abuse of this manager. This is very unprofessional behavior and needs to be handled properly. I go into this restaurant every day and this woman is always yelling at her employees I have even seen her be rude to the customers. It has gotten to the point where I think I no longer want to go to this restaurant because of this manager is so disrespectful to people.

KFC kfc dunked burger meal special

I came to KFC in isandovale and when purchasing the dunked meal which comes with the soda fountain the lady said it was not loaded on the system and the system only has with the buddy which costs extra on the customer yet I bought another meal which came with soda fountain, then the store did not even have salt packets or anything to give me either.
This is actually appalling how service has gone out the window towards the customer as no apology was given it was either accept that or leave hungry in their minds.

KFC 20 piece hot wings

I stopped and picked up a 20 piece box of wings with my monthly takeout allowance. They were inedible, either they were overcooked or left on the warmer for hours. I was told to bring them back the next day, when I did I was told the day manager was gone and they had no proof i bought them there. They put her on the phone and she told me to come back again the next day. I am a disabled person with mobility issues. I am on a limited income and I am just asking for what I paid for.or my money back. And do not need to be told I am cheating anyone for hot wings.

KFC slow service / no service

Last night (5th December 2018) we wanted to go and get KFC. We went to Soneike KFC as they were on our way home. We wanted to go through the drive through as we had our dogs with us in the car. When we got to the drive through there was a notice on saying that they have technical problems and therefore the drive through is out of order.
We then decided to go to KFC Protea Heights. When we got there, there is a notice on, saying that the soda machine isn't working, they only have bottled drinks.
So off we go again, to Brackenfell KFC. Got there, a bin was standing in the drive through. AGAIN, the drive through is out of order.
We decided to go back to KFC Protea Heights, as their drive through was working, it was just the soda machine that was out of order. We waited for an HOUR in the drive through before we got our food. Not because they were busy, but because everything was so slow. I mean, a drive through is supposed to be fast but the people inside of the restaurant got their food before the people in the drive through. We ordered two fully loaded box meals, and the Colonel burger was more bread than anything else.
The service is becoming pathetic.
