this is a clean location with good parking; That is it. The staff walks by people when they are waiting to place orders. Now I ordered a new Chicken sandwich which is advertised on your web site and on TV as $3.99 but when you drive up it is marked $4.99 and that is what you are charged. Why? The sandwich itself is not bad. It is the service that kills the taste. No discount for Vets or Sr.Citizens. All the other placed do it. Never a smile. Work is very slow. The soft drinks are priced higher than the compatition. so get your staff in line and the place will be better.

Me and my husband came, and as we passing by the tables it's all dirty, not busy coz only us the customer inside, first I think they should wear face mask, and they are very chatty and loud while preparing our foods, second they should watch out the tables and clean it not standing in the corner chatting and laughing out loud. Third when my brother as one of the girl infront she dont mind my brother asking for cutlery so one girl from the back help my bro. I'm very disappointed on the team and poor hygiene.

To put what you have actually ordered and paid for into the bag. Check before you leave. Twice I have paid for extra chips and not got them. The "new" chips are indeed awful compared to the old. The biggest problem with this place is lack of consistency in the quality of the product. It can be great but unfortunately more often han not it's poor as is reflected in the fact the biggest number of reviews are in the terrible category. In most cases that would mean the place goes out of business. Maybe KFC should review the franchise unless they actually own it in which case it needs much improved management.

Ordered a family bucket at drive through about 8.30pm. Was told they would need to cook chicken as 14 pieces and would be about 12 minutes park up qnd we'll bring it out. No problem at all, at least hot and fresh. Waited about 25 minutes before going inside and asking, then they appeared to be rushing to try and bag up, i think they had somehow forgotten about the order although no idea how when the place was near on empty. Got back and what a disappointment, the absolutely tiniest pieces of chicken, one so much you get as much on the drumstick shaped hot wing and the chip bags not even half full. Won't go again in a hurry.

Quick friendly service! We were only in there 4 mins and then walked out with our food! Pretty impressive! When we got home, food was still hot! Unfortunately I have to say the new style chips are not good!! Bring back the old style crispy chips!! KfC, your new chips are not crispy or tasty at all!!

By definition KFCs are not always operating to the same high standards. I can say that this one is and it reflects in the attitude of staff and that affects the chances of repeat custom. This KFC gets lots of repeat custom. If you prefer a specific type of chicken then just ask and if they have it ready then they will look after you. A really good service.

If you get a take out option it seems the norm that the size of the chips portion is very small. This is based on the fact you have driven home to find 12 chips in a bag and it is a waste of time driving back. Maybe this is KFC policy to save money. Portions when you eat in are always bigger.

Like other reviewers this place is an utter disgrace. I promised myself not to go back last time but thought I'd give it another try. Both drinks flat and sickly. Both Burritos just thrown together and folded with two scabby pieces of chicken and a sprinkling if rice. The girl at the drive through point handed me the large bag of food for the people behind and I had to tell them the bucket wasn't mine. I wish I'd taken it now. The ice cream machine still isn't working after months of asking. So.. My money and custom now goes to the KFC at J39.

The KFC has a nice atmosphere but the staff are borderline useless, it takes them around 15 minutes per order. We was there and ordered three zinger tower meals during the 20 minute waiting time, Four other customers who had already been served returned the orders either due to getting the wrong items or the food been poor. Please avoid the durkar store and go directly to the wakefield store much better!

Sadly, this restuarant has not improved at all over the last couple of months.The food is warm at best, but, the customer service is extremely poor. Disinterested staff just walking around instead of serving customers, leading to massive queues several times a day. Eat elsewhere until this place improves.

My family and i visited here on a Saturday lunchtime. The staff were rude when I was trying to make a meal choice. There were no fizzy drinks available either. The food was warm (ish) at best. The "restaurant" was in need of a good tidy up, let alone a deep clean.The toilets were disgusting with no soap and a large puddle around the urinal. I'm sure you can imagine the smell!? I will not be visiting this poor excuse of a "restaurant" again - there is a new KFC that has recently opened at the side of J39 that shows this dump up for what it is.

We often visit KFC on Ings road business Park. For the last few weeks they have introduced a new line. It consisted of small bites of chicken in a choice of two sauces. Smoky barbecue or chilly, Out of the last six visits we only managed to get this meal twice. It was so popular that they sold out regularly. On Saturday 28th August we decided to call in KFC only to be told that it had been a promotion for a few weeks and had now been discontinued!!!why finish selling something that had obviously been popular???

Had seen the adverts for the Take 5 for £3 so decided to give it a try so I asked what I could have with this offer so made my choices and was then told they wanted best part of £8 off me so how does that work?Feeling duped but still hungry I opted for a £1.99 popcorn chicken snack box but was most annoyed that there was hardly any chicken in the box and the fries were clap cold.What a let down I would not advise anybody to visit this branch.The car park was also full of litter the whole placed looked uncared for.Advise to management you need to up your game.Regards

Just off junction 39 this has to be the worst kfc I have been in, have picked up orders from inside to take home twice and both times have had items missing, likewise on the drive through. Went in again to take away this Saturday and watched with no surprise as customers in front of me were served orders with items missing, wrong sized drinks, refunded for hot drinks due to machine being out of operation for cleaning. This outlet is a joke,always plenty of staff but no one seems to have a clue. My order was unbelibabley correct but I have seen enough, last visit for me it's better to drive to the other kfc on Ings Road retail park.

Just off junction 39 South M1. All very usual KFC in terms of choice/service/location, however, everything appeared unsalted, we ordered 2 meals AND fries missing from one of the "meals" , couldn't be bothered to drive back obviously. We also had to park up to wait for fries, staff really pleasant - but missing food and all a bit tasteless - hence "poor" review

After waiting in the drive through for at least 15 minutes we were told our food was going to take at least another 5 mins to make. Chips looked like they had been cooked days ago and the fillet burgers just had 2 small pieces of chicken in instead of the usual 1 larger fillet. Lettuce in the burger was old and wet, burger looked like a toddler had put it together. Not enough staff and not enough decent standard food. Will go to miggy next time.

Ordered the "10 piece family feast bucket" for a family gathering snack as I am visiting the UK from the Dominican Republic. It is a rare treat for myself to have a KFC and was so much looking forward to it. After this experience and if this is the standards that KFC is now working to then I will never cross their door step again. It tasted like old chicken that had been reheated and talking about the famous recipe I think Colonel Sanders would be very displeased with having his good reputation associated with this Restaurant. This was not a KFC and I feel ripped off for being charged for what I expected and receiving this garbage. I post reports based on my experience and have under stated my own and my family's feelings regarding this meal.

Is it me, or is this chicken getting smaller by the week? The portion sizes at this place are beyond a joke! The prices get ever higher, the quality ever lower at this place. I ordered a ten piece bucket which in the good ole days would be spilling out of the top. Not this time, you could have put twenty pieces in there and still got the lid on!!!! Most of the scraps were amounted to a wing with a scrawny bit of meat hanging off topped off with a few legs which could have been from a sparrow they were so scrawny. Needless to say, I won't come to this particular rip off joint again

If you're after a snap shot of the Merry City's ethnically diverse, great unwashed dining together in one establishment then look no further.As with any 'restaurant' as these places label themselves on the retail park, you are usually greeted by rows of neaveau riche chavs in their pretentious motors and pubescent teenagers in their rides clad with tacky vehicle accessories parked outside. anything above a Vauxhall Corsa looks like a new filling in a mouth full of rotten teeth. So, in we go. You are greeted by the great unwashed who hath decendeth from their domains in order to splash their hard earned giros (or ill gotten gains) on cheap and nasty southern fried chicken. The scene reminiscent of a heard of bison at a serangeti watering hole. I don't know what smells worse, them or the food if I'm honest.As you've probably already gathered, I do not and never intended to write a review on the food. What's the point? After all it is a well established chain where if you haven't heard of them or tasted the produce then you must have been living in Hans Fritz' cellar all your life.And finally the staff. Whilst I'd rather have young kids working for the minimum wage rather than swigging White Lightning in Lupset park, they could at least look interested. Collectively they look akin to a bag of mishapes from Wakey market.Whilst it doesn't exactly replicate Broken Britain, it does leave you with the impression that Wakefield is a steaming pile of dog excrement with a plastic straw and a chicken bone planted on the top.
