KFC in Torbay

We ordered a family meal for delivery to find, once it was delivered 1/3 of the meal was missing, called the store, they state you will have to come in and collect the rest, I personally will never eat at this establishment again very poor customer service to say they least, it ruined my meal once I’d called up try to sort it the rest was cold and went in the bin, your free and easy taking peoples money but when it comes to sorting order issues it’s very poor on your part Shame on you

My husband came down with food poisoning a few hours after eating there, has been up all night, and is still vomiting, feverish and unwell this morning. I had a vegan burger, so presume it was dodgy chicken he ate. Since then, we've seen that food poisoning cases are very common there 🤢🤢 I dislike fast food and kfc at the best of times and only ended up there out of necessity, but would definitely advise avoid this kfc in particular!

Ordered rice boxes and was told on recieving my order " was told we have no forks use a wooden stick or my fingers." Bit sad really as across the road they could of picked up some cutlery

No issues at all at this KFC - close to home and we go once a month on average. Jack on the main tills is always polite and efficient. Food nearly always hot too.

Food wasn't actually that bad today.. Even got our order right.. The staff are so poor and clueless.. You'd think with all the poor reviews that someone in head office would change things and make a difference.. Wasn't busy whatsoever. Staff could have cleaned because the place was a tip..

Went in and left pretty quickly! The place was absolutely filthy, staff stood around chatting to each other rather than cleaning it up. We went off to a local pub and got a meal for almost the same cost! This KFC really needs to improve, wonder how many others walk out! We certainly won’t be returning!

Well done KFC Paignton! Superb food and service today 29.06.23 at 7pm. We went through the drive through and the whole experience was fantastic. Team member greeting us was very pleasant and knowledgeable, he asked if we wanted any extras, any ice cream etc, we then received our food via the window and again, team member was very pleasant and polite. Food was fantastic and finally we got the gravy in this branch. Well done KFC Paignton, we will be back soon.

Avoid this place at all cost not only is it dirty and disgusting when you walk in even the staff are pretty rude and not very helpful at all, we wanted to change 2 chicken wings to one piece of chicken but I couldn't be done so we've got the whole meal refund and walked away never will we use this place again.... Avoid it all cost not mcds is only down the road

We tried this place 9 months ago - No Gravy. Tried again 6 months ago - No Gravy. Tried again 3 months ago - No Gravy. Tried today and guess what! NO GRAVY!!! Please it’s a joke, KFC can be a great QSR but this one is just a terrible. Come on manager, sort this simple thing out.

We went there yesterday my both kids 2 and 7 are food poison same as me this is second time in past 4 months I be reporting this place and never again visit it again.

Dropped into KFC Paignton for some lunch. Ordered hot wings, a fillet burger, fries, sweetcorn and gravy. All perfectly cooked, hot and tasty. Staff great. No complaints at all.

Placed an order for a bbq wrap to takeaway at the counter and after 10 minutes of other orders being completed left with no information as to the status of my order! Never told when ordered about there would be a long wait! When asked to when I would get my order said not sure as busy with other orders. There were staff just hanging around doing nothing as they didn’t care about customers. In the end said can’t wait any longer and walked out. Nothing has changed in this branch of KFC and is still the worst in the area. Get better service elsewhere with KFC with a fraction of the staff. Not going back again and will recommend others do the same

Lack Lustre of Customer Service from this Store, Staff who clearly do not care and do not want to be there and find it funny to congregate in one place and leave Customers waiting for there orders.

Over cooked dried out tasteless Chicken with Cold chips avoid. You would think after over 55 years in the UK cooking Chicken they might be able to manage to cook a Chicken. Well say chicken maybe a Bantam or Blackbird the size of the portions these days. Does not even warrant one star/point.

We ordered 2 box meals. A trilogy box meal and an original box meal. We parked up in the good sized car park, and went on not the restaurant to order. All clean and tidy, staff very polite and efficient as well. The food was...

Missing food items and the chips were cold and soggy. Ring up and staff very rude and nothing they can do about it. Terrible best to avoid

Very bad dry chicken does not test good will not go back there again .Chips were old l just heated up again chicken was old chicken that shoud have been thrown away

STEER CLEAR OF KFC PAIGNTON, DEVON… STEER CLEAR OF KFC IN PAIGNTON, DEVON… I visited this sorry excuse of a KFC on a Friday evening in mid-December 2022. I should have realised that something was amiss when I saw that the ‘Drive Through’ was closed...

Went through the drive through to be told there were no mini fillets just chicken and hot wings, so I ordered hot wings, drive to the next window to be told they had none. I asked for a refund and they asked me to go...

Who manages this place!!!, gave it a couple of years as it used to be a badly managed branch, hoping that it had been improved, it has not, first met with their being no table number things even though the machine is asking for this,...

Eating in should mean hot food but no warm chicken burger. Do the staff get paid less if they smile. Over all give it a swerve.

wanted 1 coffee took 30 mins to serve, when I asked for a refund they refused- so bad do not recommend

Ordered a 10 piece bucket and got a meal for one delivered. Driver was in car before checking order. Staff rude when rang to let them know. They said to come and collect. We paid for delivery so expect it delivered Now have to wait...

I keep giving this place a chance but it just seems to get worse. Chicken is so greasy with hardly any meat on the bone and you’ll be lucky to receive everything you paid for.

3 boneless buckets 8 piece ordered .No popcorn chicken supplied despite almost £54 paid. Poor. Get your act together.For a Thursday early evening ,not good .

Rude and incompetent staff,worst service of my life .when asked for missing items they were literally thrown at me.food was pretty good but service left a bitter taste in my mouth

Came here with family for a treat. Have to say we were pleasantly surprised by how tasty the food was, clean the restaurant area was despite how busy they were. Food was good value for money. Will definitely think of using here more now for...

By far the worst KFC I have ever been to. Chip portion very small. When ordering I asked for an extra coleslaw and beans. When I got home they weren’t there. Fortunately when I checked I hadn’t been charged for the items that were omitted....

I took my kids here on Thursday evening, ordered as “Eat in” on the ordering screen & went to wash our hands before eating. When going into the mens toilets the stench hit me and my little boy in the face, through the door and...

Let down for the last time. Every time I order from them we either have things missing or it’s of poor standards. This time we ordered the 10 piece family feast and I kid you not, we literally had 5 chips each. I will never...

No salad, no rice box, chicken looked cremated. Toilets locked by key code. No outside seating. Go to garage instead.

On holiday in the area, called in on my way back to caravan, was handed a large bag. Got back to our caravan to find 8 wings and 2 sides were not in the bag. Nice one kfc.

Me and my family use to give this KFC a wide birth and drive onto Newton to get our chicken fix. The past couple of years the restaurant has gradually gotten better. Yes there are mess ups and sometimes slow but the staff here worked...

My trip to KFC in Paignton was a lovely experience. We took our daughter for a well deserved treat. The food was hot and tastey. The staff were so friendly and accommodating and the seating area was pristine clean. Was a wonderful visit. The staff...

Went to this kfc after all negative press and it's amazing. Lovely chicken, friendly staff, good music. Loved every second well done team Paignton

credit where credit is due, we have had KFC twice in the last couple of months and have to say it's been the best we have ever had, have they had a kick up the bum? It was closed for a while was this maybe...

Its been a long time since I had KFC and it will be a long time again. Truly awful meal, tasteless chicken & poor quality chips.

I have been visiting KFC Paignton for many years, and I've never been disappointed. The food has always been well cooked, hot and cooked promptly. I can only imagine that the people who complain are expecting some kind of a la carte meal for, what...

the food quality was the most exceptional food I've ever had . me and Keath had a great time . exceptional service . would go again

Perhaps the worst KFC in Britain. Was told that they didn't have any chicken. Its likely that in reality is that they stop cooking an hour before they close. On another occasion we were told that KFC was a restaurant not a fast food restaurant....

I have given a bad review approx a year ago for kfc Paignton but they have turned things around , the food was quick and hot and the order was correct so well done Paignton

My sh*t turned into literal water one night post-kfc here. Everything was cold. Just generally wouldn’t recommend for anyone

This kfc is the worst I w been in. Even though it was quiet when I arrived and staff not busy, tables needed wiping, food on tables and floor. Food arrived dried out and over cooked. When we asked for replacement chicken strips they replaced...

I have been coming here for years and normally have a drive through. I have found the staff to be excellent and friendly and the food is good. I do not understand why people have given negative reviews as I have never had any problems...

Travelling down from Northwich, Cheshire (now that’s a bad KFC) hit the drive thru at 9:45pm and despite a short wait purely due to the driver in front being slightly off his game……🥴 was met with a member of staff that was both polite and...

The problems are: No sign at car park entrance to let people know it's drive through or delivery only, you only find out when you park up and find the door locked. So, you drive back out the car park to join the long que,...

The last time I used the drive-thru I was waiting light years to get served (over 45 minutes ! ) Very poor service and after all this the food was cold and not to standards. So it think thay need to change their sign slow...

Me and my family have come here for Years and it’s gotten better recently. You can see that by how busy the restaurant is now. Food is always good and staff are friendly. Remember the phrase... the world is short staffed, be kind to those...

We had a family day out to Paignton when all the kids were back at school and the service we received was amazing. Scott was incredible as was the girl who handed us the food. Food was amazing, hot fresh and everything there.

I went into KFC yesterday and I couldn’t fault it, the place was clean and tidy and the food came quickly and was hot.

Filthy restaurant I can’t believe how dirty the place is Food below standard Drive through expect to wait 45 minutes Avoid

Sometimes you just want a little family treat, unfortunately the order was very wrong (Daughter was very upset) and some of the food was to cold to eat. Needless to say we will not be visiting again and we ended up getting a McDonalds on...

Visited at lunchtime. The food, as usual, was well cooked. We were served quickly, staff were polite and the place clean and tidy. Been visiting for years and I've never had a problem with this KFC, ever

I went into the restaurant as the drive thru was far too slow. It was filthy with queues of delivery drivers hanging around. It certainly did not feel like the KFC’s I know.

The only kfc iv know to run out of chicken that doesn't leave alot left to eat. Defo will not be going back

This is the second time I’ve got home and found that the chips that should have been supplied with my bargain bucket and fillet burger weren’t included in my order.More fool me for going back. Be warned!

Waited an hour for a mini fillet at 9pm one night , then the next time i queued an hour at the drive thru, only for there till to freeze, i had to go into store and wait another 30 mins, drive thru was fine...

This place is shocking!! The Food! Hygiene! Customer service! Wait times! This has being going on for some time!! I honestly don’t understand why nothing has been done about it!!!

Far quicker service than other in local area and well cooked food. Seem well organised evrery time i go and order always correct, Parking superb not like others in the area .Very friendly staff. Only downer is the rising price of the bargain bucket

I’ve been to some sh..holes in the US but this takes the top award.I fail to understand why the head office haven’t done something about it because the problems go back years. The staff leave the place dirty with uncleared tables and food on the...

So the family wanted a treat and the kids asked, no begged for a KFC! We haven’t been in a really, really long time so thought changes must of been made to the restaurant since our last visit; what a horrible mistake that was. The...

I take my mrs to kfc when she’s having a bit of a down day and safe to say each time we’ve gone there the gravy’s a no no. Our order coming correctly is a no go, and the staff are all working quite slow...

This is honestly the worst kfc I’ve ever been to, they can never get anything right, you can ask for a small fries and you’ll get a large Diet Pepsi, the staff are rude and always act like they don’t want to be there, the...

Awful awful restaurant. For some bizarre reason I go back every few months almost like I forget how bad it is. I was stood at the till for 11 minutes without any staff even looking at me. The floors were greasy, rubbish everywhere and they...

Went to kfc in kempston retail park in kempston, bedfordshire. My god I have never seen a kfc run by children .. even the shift manager looked like he needed a nappy change. Couldnt get a simple order right. I was told how bad this...

I was told today I couldn’t have a zinger stacker due them not wanting to run out of chicken. But I was allowed 2 zingers ??? I mean what the hell. This kfc just keeps on getting better and better. Also. They don’t do the...

Our teenagers were hankering for a KFC fix whilst on holiday after ordering our food & drink we waited & we waited watching people behind us get their meals the young staff didn,t appear to know what they were doing & generally seemed to tit...

Waited for 35 minutes for my order only to find 7 cold chips. Staff just stood around not doing anything so disorganized, fast food I don't think so.

Came in to order a box meal, no receipt provided by the machine. Stood at the counter alone (no other customers queueing for service) with staff packing orders frantically and ignoring me despite some eye contact. After 5 minutes (actual not hyperbolised) I called over...

This place was awful. We are on holiday in the area and needed something quick. When the order arrived, 1 hour later than anticipated, they got it completely wrong and failed to get the portion sizes correct!! We tried calling the restaurant 5 times and...

This kfc is an absolute shambles. Me and my partner have been here a number of occasions because it is the nearest kfc available to us. I would strongly say that two out of ten orders are correct. They either have no gravy , Miss...

Ordered online a good amount of time before the restaurant closed for a modest sized delivery - nothing at all extraordinary. Driver was assigned and visited the restaurant - then, nothing. We were left in limbo for over an hour with the restaurant not answering...

Completely useless, wait nearly an hour in the drive through, then for them to mess the order up! Beware!!!

Have tried this place twice now, the first time we went the food wasn't hot and it was over cooked and the second time they screwed up our order, we ordered chips AND sweet corn with our meal and they missed out the chips, when...

You got to feel sorry for the staff..however such poor management and staff to customer ratio Waited up to an 1hr for drive throu just a joke...... Wake up KFC this is why macdonlds is the king of fast food....

Yet again this kfc is a true let down. Waited for over 30 min in the drive in , had no way of turning around. The worse thing is we where sat at the window for 10 min then they said park up. On top of that they forget a burger in the order and didn’t know until I got home. So there’s 6.99 lost. They really need to sort this out

Awful KFC branch, stopped going there along time ago as I constantly received my order with stuff missing, but today I thought I’d give them ago through justeat, it was a mistake! Received someone else’s food. Rang the branch and was told my food was in fact still there with them, and was then asked to contact justeat to resolve the matter. Who said it would take 48hrs to be reviewed. I can’t wait to receive my 2 day old kfc order when this is resolved....... bet it’s going to be delicious.

Paignton KFC is terrible would not recommend. Torquay one not great either. Long waits, poor Service, food missing my. Other areas not a problem but unable to travel due to lockdown. Won’t be visiting any Torbay KFC again.

This KFC has never got out order correct and the food has not been good...also they have forgot our side orders a number of time. . We have been a few times now to see if it has got better but it seems to have just got worse. Car park is always a dump and it is never being managed properly. This place needs to have some sort of guidance from someone higher up or needs to be closed.

We’ve tried them twice in the last week. Nobody gives a crap at this place - polite enough - but actual service is practically zero. The first time we went, we were told we could either have a zinger burger, or chicken strips (honestly, I’m not even joking - that was it). Tonight, again, virtually no menu.Nobody cares at this place. Minimum wage kids who turn the lights off at 9pm in the hope to go home early. Can’t say I blame them. The place is a joke.

Absolutely waste of time, pulled up at window just after another car pulled away and sat there for over 5 minutes, pressed horn a couple of times and then drove round to other window to see five people standing around, had to beep horn again to get attention and when the girl opened window and I told her there was no one at at other window to take orders she said I get someone round there!! Told her not to bother and drove straight to McDonald's, got my order and was out within 2 minutes of placing order. Should shut that KFC down, orders are always wrong,food is hit and miss, run by a bunch of kids with no real training, really is the worst KFC in the country!!!

After passing my driving theory test my mum ‘treated’ me to a kfc. Little did I know that it was all undercooked. This has practically made me paralysed. I spent the first day and night vomiting every 5 minutes. And crying in pain. Then tossed and turned unable to sleep. I have been trying desperately hard to eat over the past few days but have been unable to do so. It is physically difficult to breath. And all basic tasks (even rolling over in bed) are next to impossible. I don’t think I’ll EVER be having a kfc again.

Once again we had undercooked chicken burgers and items not in are takeaway. Drive 3 miles home to find this out. Waste of money , Drive back and nothing they can do. Sort it OUT KFC

Everytime I visit this dump they have no gravy. I went once they had no chicken.. another time they closed at 10:30pm when they should close at 11pm.but I've been about ten different times were they have no gravy..This place is a joke.Shut them down. The management couldn't run a bath. Close them down KFC head quarters and build a drive thru below the McDonald's drive thru in torquay. Paignton KFC have been bad for years. They were nearly closed years ago for lack of cleanliness.. really bad close them down.. I dont dare go an try an buy a gravy burger because I think I would flip my lid if they couldn't do it..

Have visited this site on many occasions and the service is getting worse. Long waits for food and then it's served cold. New management is required at this location.

This is by far the worst KFC in the uk if not the worst fast food store overall. Every order I have ever placed has been wrong and the staff have no clue. The franchise owner should be fired for lack of care. This is the last straw I ordered a bucket and got 5 pieces not 6 and all 5 were LEGs when breast was on the request.

Ordered on just eat and delivered to our caravan at Hoburne Devon bay . Fresh and hot Thankyou Highly recommended if you are on holiday and fancy a kfc delivery

Wrong order despite server checking in the bag. Drove a long way home to find out it was wrong. No reply from them on phone despite constantly calling. Drove all way back and despite originally offering refund they then refused. Tried to offer more food but had been totally off put. Manager was quite rude and upset my partner to an extent I had never seen her.

It is bad and don’t go there. It is in Devon but Devon is bad because there is not anything to do there.

Filthy, greasy floor and food everywhere. Took 35 minutes from ordering to get my food. Staff are rude and unhygienic. Food missing from order. Never visit this place.

Horrendous....!I get that you are busier than usual with the Eat Out offer but why LIE about when the food is arriving.....? If you’d have been honest with us an hour ago (when it was ordered for) we could have come and picked it up and helped you out. Dreadful and unacceptable way to treat “loyal Just Eat customers”Utterly unacceptable.....

I was made to wait 30 minutes for fast food only to get home with two bags of hot wings instead of my meals. I rang up and was told I could have a free meal and was giving a code only to drive all the way back to be told, he said come another day as they had sold out of chicken on my drive back. So this Sunday night they couldn’t even give me the food I had payed for. No dinner tonight !!! Worst kfc going

Asked on arrival if i would be able to eat in and was told yes. Queued up for quite a while only to be told i couldnt . This branch at paignton is a shambles and deserves a no star rating

Really slow to get your food even in quiet times, maybe times order wrong to. Don't know what it is with this particular branch

When you walk in be very careful you don't slip on the greasy floor. Then you'll notice the rubbish everywhere, the over flowing bins. Tables not cleaned. Food was ok, hot, but you do have to question the hygiene. The staff do like to chat just not with the customers. So waiting is going to on the menu. We offered some feedback, but got a very rude response. So fantastic experience NOT.

Food taste horrible chicken not even cooked. Staff didn't have a clue what they doing. Waited 20 mins to get served then get cold food. Restaurant if u can call it that dirty and covered in rubbish.will never use KFC again

10/10 for chicken I bought the 9 piece bucket on Tuesday very fresh amazing quality a very good deal I cant recommend this deal more. staff very polite and helpful.

All KFCs in England should be closed. I have never seen dirty places with food anywhere like in England. What a low level... Is this even legal? And food, they distroying the name of the brand in this country. Disgusting.

What the hell has happened to KFC it's now just rubbish. Theres is hardly any Chicken on the pieces all the best bits are gone. The newer still chips are the worse thing they ever did. Somebody in management wants to wake up. No more that my last visit a bargain bucket is no longer a bargain when is all rubbish. Cheaper and better to buy a cooked chicken and oven chips from the supermarket.

Reading previous reviews of my local KFC I have to agree it is the worst I have ever been to. Not been there in a year as so bad. Wish I had never gone tonight. Completely the wrong food , luke warm and not nice, probably as it wasn't what I ordered . Avoid is my only advice. Real shame as other KFCs are so nice.
