This is a disgrace I have heard of shrink flation I am not sure that it was possible to get smaller pieces of chicken. They charge more money and give you substantially smaller portions KFC is truly a rip off nowadays

November 9, 2024

Got some chicken for a party got some faked up chicken Not at all Crispy cooked the chicken in OLD smelling oil It's like I got my dipping sauce with my chicken dipping cooking oil Ruined my party today nov 9th For your reference I can send receipt it you need

September 29, 2024

Received a delivery order . The entire order was cold and missing the sauces . When I called and spoke to the manager she refused to give me her name and hung up on me . Worst customer service ever . This used to be a good spot, but the last few years, it has really gone downhill . We all make mistakes it's how you address those mistakes that counts . Bad showing guys .

Ordered a 10 piece bucket and asked for 4 legs. Was told "Absolutely, no problem" Would have understood if that wasn't possible but....Got home only had 2, no idea why. Gravy was watery and tasteless. Service was adequate but won't be back.

This is the best KFC has tasted in years. Please give your staff a 5% raise. Thank you

I may not have dropped all the way to 1star, BUT the last time I was here the service was outstanding and there was no wait and the place was super busy. It looks like all new staff. No the place was empty when I arrived and the wait is absolutely ridiculous. What happened, not paying the staff enough and they quit and no we are stuck with this herd of snails? Well, there is no way the business is not going to suffer, we will try a different KFC next time. Or better yet cook ourselves. Sad. †****** I should add, the advertised time was way longer than it took when I walked in off the street, and it is already 20min longer than they said it would take!!! And we ordered around supper time...and the place is dead inside.. So what the hell??? Did they not think maybe people would be hungry after work on a Friday night??? Seriously? Can we get a 1 star option, or how about a most de-proved restaurant! Went from fastest fast food in Cole harbour to the absolute worst.

HARD PASS - Went in for a nostalgic visit with our coupons in hand for a 16 piece meal and I was really hoping this would be as good as the past. This site was super cramped and congested with only space for 6 people at the door never mind have people waiting at the door. We placed our order while we sat there and quite literally watched the chaos invoked order pickup line. Part of this was due to calling out what people had ordered instead of an order number leading to severe confusion of whose food is whose. Had they changed this process this may have helped the folks who did not speak very good English. This affected our meal as well. We watched folks grab others food only to find out it wasn’t their food, orders mixed up because they put content in the wrong bag and cashier not handing out itemized list of their order which is not great considering the madness it invoked trying to confirm our own orders. We had to go up several times to obtain ALL the necessary ketchup, forks, no wetnaps, plates (as we were dining in) and napkins. Then on top of that we ended up with cold fries and chicken that was somewhat greasy but the chicken was so tough it didn’t want to come off the bone. The chicken was also miscut which wasn’t the greatest feature but man why is the chicken so tough? Coleslaw and noodles were ok but man I was hoping our return after 25 years would have been just as pleasurable as my childhood. Even my kid who loves chicken seemed to not like it. Made me really sad. If I ever came back I think I would stay with burgers or tenders but never the chicken pieces

Disappointed for the fourth or fifth time with the chicken bowl, it's basically gravy soup. So gross. Should have checked before I left the store, fed it to my dog.

Chicken was overcooked and dried out. No juice whatsoever. No taste. Worst KFC chicken I ever had. I wont be back.

February 21, 2024

Kfc has been bad for so long. You pay for a piece of chicken, but really they cut that piece up into smaller pieces and still charge full price. There are now way better options available like Mary Browns, Popeyes and Buttermilk chicken and fried ribs. Im never paying for KFC again...

I always visit and get good service and food, but this particular time the food was horrible, and the cashier wasnt pleasant all because I voice my concerns about the different pieces of chicken that were put in the bucket. The cashier took back the bucket of chicken and proceeded to check it with a disgusting look on her face. She shoved the bucket back to me after which I found it very rude. Bad customer service!!!

I am giving this KFC a 5 star rating as the service and food I just purchased was perfect. It was obvious that the place was understaffed as there were only 4 men working at the time but they were busting their a$$es. I ordered an 18 piece meal and a 10 piece at 445pm and it was ready in under 10 minutes. It was so tasty. Thanks guys!

A KFC experience in Canada, expected to be good. Not sure if this is the usual case there, and the items we ordered - twisted chicken wrap, zinger burger and kids chicken burger all of them tasted very very salty. We couldnt eat them. Didnt wish to waste the food the we paid for. Hope they serve better.

December 21, 2023

Ordered online just about an hour ago. Selected 3 large sides. French fries, Cole Slaw and gravy. When I got back home I was very disappointed that they left out my coleslaw and gave me 2 large gravy. Nobody pays attention anymore. Do better.

December 21, 2023

We were sadly very disappointed with the food. The 11 herbs and spices on the chicken tasted like three spices and some water. The gravy was so watered down we threw it away. The food gets worse every time we try that location in Cole Harbour and we will not be back.

Ordered for delivery. I live less than 5km from this location. When it arrived the fries were cold, the biscuits were cold and the potato salad was warm which I would have liked to be cold. Also the online special two buckets for the price of one was chicken that looked like it was from a clearance fridge. All in all and not that KFC cares they will not get any more of my business

December 21, 2022

Paid $25 for 2 gravy and a large popcorn children as I wanted to make tater bowls for my kids. I get home and the gravy is half full and the chicken was not full either. You pay more for everything and get less, so annoyed!

Ordered online for delivery and when I received my food my drinks were completely wrong along with a note that says that they ran out of the drink I ordered. This would normally not be a problem except for the fact that they didn t try to contact me about it at all and the drinks that they replaced them with were about a third of the size of the ones I ordered and are way cheaper (I order a 32oz iced tea and received a small can of pepsi). Furthermore, my 3pc boneless chicken was completely disappointing. The fries were soggy and were not the size I ordered, the chicken pieces were about the size of my pinky finger and couldn t possibly be considered a meal to anybody. Any reputable establishment would add another piece or two to make up for their shockingly small pieces, but not here. Beware of buying or ordering from here and prepare to be disappointed when paying a lot for a little bit of food

Food Poisoning. On Wed, Aug 26, 21. I purchased a combo meal that had a Big Crunch, Dried out fries, Pop corn chicken, gravy and a lemon flavored drink. After eating the KFC I felt like throwing up around 30 minutes later. After one hour I really felt ill in my stomach and then I vomited and had Diarrhea. Normally the food is okay but they got something wrong when making my order. It was extremely difficult getting a hold of someone to speak with at their location, the phone would ring and it seemed like someone picked it up and then hung up the phone, this happened three times and on the fourth call someone answered. I explained what had happened, FKC employee said it was not our fault but would mention it to the manager on Monday. It easy to see he did not care in the way the KFC employee spoke to me, cold emotionless, uncaring. Food poisoning Kentucky Fried Chicken The most commonly reported symptoms from KFC food poisoning are diarrhea and nausea. Chicken is one of the leading causes of Salmonella and the illness has been reported by KFC customers worldwide. The latest outbreaks occurred in Feb 2018 in Mongolia with 247 people sick and 42 hospitalized.- google.ca

Ordered online for pickup. Heads up to those doing the same....check your order BEFORE you leave the premises. We didnt do this :( When we got home with the food we realized that the large gravy (that we ordered and paid for) was missing. Also, the boxes containing the fries and popcorn chicken were crushed; the breading on the chicken tenders AND chicken (8 piece chicken bucket) was minimal, to say the least. Not impressed.
