More often than not one's order is missing items. This has happened more times with this store than I can remember. We normally order through Uber Eats but wont again.

I had placed a order through your application App Your manager said the application is not working in the branch and he’s unable to give us our paid food. This treatment is completely unacceptable and is called a theft. How’s that possible a establishment like yours stealing money from customers without any consequences with a rather rude attitude saying there’s nothing he can do. I also lost my £5 voucher, my money and I walked out hungry and robbed by your establishment Can you please explain to me what’s happening The place was a tip.

Always used to enjoy kfc, haven't had any for years. Tried this outlet today and very disapointed-no flavour to the chicken and chips were long soggy with sfins on-avoid!!!!

Visited the Gillingham KFC with my husband and grandson this evening. Joined the drive in que which didn’t move for 20 minutes. Unable to escape the que as cars joined behind us. We actually got to order our food ( 6 piece bucket) after a whole 35 minutes from when we joined the que. we noticed several families trying to get in to the restaurant however the door was locked with a note advising that due to unforeseen circumstances they were unable to let anyone in. When we finally got our order 45 minutes from when we joined the que ( no apology recieved for the wait) we found that our 6 piece bucket contained 5 pieces of chicken. We were not prepared to rejoin the drive in que which continued to have several cars already waiting and we were unable to go into the restaurant as the door was locked. By this time we were so hungry we just drove off to find the nearest lay by so that we could eat. The chicken was wet ( KFC chicken cooked correctly is never wet!) and the coating was extremely greasy so much so that none of us could eat it. We chucked it away and went and got McDonald’s. Will never go there again.

I am writing on here because kfc are impossible to get in touch with. Having ordered a meal via the Uber it app it arrive 10 mins later (well done uber) however the chips where stone cold and looked like they were cooked two days ago the chicken was also like warm and ended up being given to the dog. Sorry this is so negative but i am furious at spending hard earned money to receive a product at a cost only fit for a dog

We visited this branch on Sunday and it was one of the most stressful experiences for myself and my partner. Firstly we ordered at the counter only to realise after we placed the order that some other customers had been waiting 30mins for their food. Everyone that did get the food had an issue or 2 with missing items. We also had the fries missing x4 out of an order with x4 fries. I mean how does that happen? Observing the staff members frantically moving from one area to another with no actual work being done. One girl chatted with everyone for the whole 30mins and didn't fulfil a single order . One topic was what does lady laya from star wars wear? The drive through que was just as bad as the cars only moved a few spots by the time we came out. Instead the drive through order placers were joking and laughing amongst each other . There was no visible management and everyone looked school age and acted like it too. We saw 4 staff members on a break eating quite frankly one of each item of the menu. The food itself looked like it was backing up on the bypass and some of the items sat there for at least 20mins before being bagged and given to the rightful purchaser. Absolute joke of a place and definitely needs some new structure of staff members for future business. Which wont be from me.

For the 3rd time in 4 weeks we have ordered £30+ menus using Just Eat and each time the quality of the cuts has been disgusting - every piece of chicken was either a leg or a thigh (35/35), despite that we add "NO THIGHS PLEASE" in the comments. The fillet burgers also came with mayo included when again we asked for it to be deleted - I am allergic to it. Tried to call the restaurant but no answer, Food was delivered stone cold - threw it in the bin.

Ordered from kfc gillingham 2 days in a row 1st day ordered still water got sparkling which went in bin as don't drink very annoying as we specifically ordered still as at medway hospital there is limited places to get cold water when shops shut. 2nd of ordering store was able to get my drink selection right with still water but decided to not give me my chips that went with my meal..... try calling the store several times but no one wants to answer food was ok wings seemed old and dry normal chicken was ok tho. Think more time needed to ensure orders are complete and correct as i am now out of pocket for incorrect and missing food

Good quality fast food very reasonably priced. What made is so pleasant was the cheerful and smiley staff. met friends from around the area at a location convenient for us all. Comfortable seating. We are of an age when a bit baffled by computer ordering, not a problem for the smiley staff who talked us through and were helpful and patient.

So my day started wonderfully, everything was going good, I felt after a good day i’d end it with the film perfect dream ending with an amazing KFC. I entered, the smells of chicken filled my nostrils and my mouth begun to salivate, I walked to the counter and ordered a boneless banquet, with a mini fillet, perfect.It began when I opened the box to find my gravy was missing and I had beans. Now this was enough to fill me with rage as i’d Have no sauce to dip my succulent breast into. As I dig deeper I also then realised they’d missed out my dip which comes with the banquet. So not only was I missing gravy, I was missing a dip. Furious. I worked through the dry sauceless chicken to find the chips were stone cold. Not happy, day ruined and the week begins tomorrow. Feeling deflated, I’m not sure when i’ll Be returning to KFC. It’s gone downhill guys. Disappointment is only what you’ll find here.

I visited this branch mid afternoon the door was locked the manager wearing his own clothes and no gloves watched us stand outside of this restaurant for 20 minutes and did not inform me and my friend that they were closed. His colleague laughed at us as he rudely told us through the window that they were shut. I am incredibly disappointed and upset. I wish that the staff were more professional.

Iv used here for years ... service is generally slow , it had got better after the refurb but I personally notice both food and service and better/faster when one of the male managers (wearing black are working ) when the older woman wearing black is working I generally think they purposely burn the food and as it's guaranteed to be dry but when the male managers are there I have had a couple nice meals but still hit and miss . Staff re-tension needs improvement as always some one new on the tills

Colas a la carretera principal, que parecía muy peligroso como coches tratando de moverse desde todos los ángulos. Nos tomó unos 30 minutos para ir a través de drive thru. El personal era servicial pero ordenados que las bebidas grandes comidas no caben en el soporte de cartón que se cayó de como poniendo en coche. Seguían en la casa otoño viaje tan húmedo asientos. También equivocado hamburguesas y patatas fritas frías. Nada contenta me dan era un viernes pero mejoras necesarias tomar.

This store is one of the busyer kfcs however it's not one of the best the drive threw at top of Gillingham is much better so I am told by numerous people ... However to rate this store the average wait time is between 5 min and 30 min on a busy Friday night the food quality is always better when the I'm assuming general manager is there middle aged 30 odd bloke black shirt gives it away ... But when he's not there it's just generally bad or just ok they also need to work on hygiene as touch there noses way to often .... stuff like that I have since stopped going to this store

No, I don't love dry chicken...or limp chips or flat coke. I also don't like to wait an age in a fast food joint while staff mop around my feet. It wasn't so terrible that I didn't eat the food but honestly it really didn't thrill me and there are so many good fried chicken places now that places like KFC need to up their game and maintain standards in all of their outlets.

We walked quite a distance, as there didn't seem to be much else to eat in the town. Nice large area with plenty of seats. Some of the tables needed cleaning, but the staff were polite and efficient. Lovely freshly cooked meal. We had been on the road since 7am, and it was 6.00pm so we were ready to eat.

Two of us came in for coffee and dessert. I ordered an Americano and received what was clearly a cup of instant coffee. No explanation, apology or discount. When the card reader was presented to me, I had been overcharged by £30. We won't be back.

I'd been wanting to try their burgers for ages due to hearing good things, so perhaps ny expectations were too high. Nothing wrong with the food but I think way overhyped. A tasty burger but not the best I've ever had.
