We visited the Blackpool KFC on Wednesday evening (eat out to help out) so we didn't mind queuing and understand that they are probably busier than usual. We ordered a 6 piece bucket and 5 of the pieces were drumsticks. I would expect 1 or 2 drumsticks but 5!? The other piece also looked very small. The chips weren't good either, even though we had waited for a while they were not freshly cooked and barely warm. Anyway, the reason for this 1 star review is because of the state of the toilets. They are an absolute disgrace; a health hazard. The floor was soaking wet, the sink was filthy and the dreadful strong smell of urine hits you from the top of the stairs. My partner said that the men's toilet was the same awful state. Needless to say we did not use them. I would recommend that KFC invest in some bleach and check that their toilet facilities are regularly monitored. I've seen cleaner toilets at music festivals.

My partner and I arrived and were shown to a table then I went to the loo... it was filthy. Water and toilet paper all over the floor, bin overflowing and nothing appeared to have been wiped down/sanitised. The eating area was dirty, cramped with zero evidence of social distancing.. it’s a small establishment, so in my mind the number of customers should be limited. We walked out and ate elsewhere.

I decided to visit my local branch and after checking the website the KFC website states open till 11 pm. Walking down towards the store, two staff members can clearly be seen outside the storefront smoking, joking and jeering. Upon attempting to enter the male member just blurted and "Closed Mate Maccies is just down the road". Absolutely astounded that a member of staff would just address a potential customer that way and actually promote a business further down the road. If I wanted a McDonalds I would have gone there. The female member of the team just stood there with a smirk on her face. Customers were clearly inside at the time. If they had just closed then a more polite manner and tone are needed. Customer Service Training is clearly needed. Somewhere else got the custom.

Staff were disgusting towards us, chucked our food at us.....especially kelly with the short purple hair and green eyeshadow (manly) took ages, too slow. It’s gone completely down hill.... food wasn’t great, 1/10. Disappointed. Food ruined by 2 noncey Asians, we felt uncomfortable as they were staring at us whilst we ate.... they recorded us on their phones and the staff including kelly just watched. We felt very vulnerable and threatened by this strange behaviour, wont be returning.

Visited this restaurant the other day, not for the first time. Waited over 10 mins in a queue of 6 people. In that time not one person got served. There was one staff member serving and he was trying to sort out an incorrect order for someone who had been served. Service is always slow, staff are disinterested and frankly it's dirty and untidy. When you get to order you have to have what's available and then they usually miss something off your order. Really should be shut down, it's a disgrace!

Popped in in the evening for a bit to eat,there was no one else there and we was the only customers.Placed our order and sat down to wait, while we was waiting another couple came in and ordered.They got there order and left, after 20 minutes we asked about our order as we could see it on the side.We was told they were waiting for the fries,I pointed out that the couple who came in after us had got their order and had left so how could our order not be ready.The response from the team member was I don't know but you can have the rest of your meal now and wait for the fries.When we got the food the fries were hot but the chicken was cold due to the now 25 minute wait for fries.

Popped in after an appointment in town to grab my daughter a bite to eat. For a large town like Blackpool, the premises is entirely inadequate. Not only is it tiny but it's dirty and the delapidated state seems to attract some revolting characters. If I hadn't already ordered, I'd have turned around and left. A group of people sat at one of the tables were swearing really loudly and one of them actually spat on the floor before leaving. I'm just glad my daughter didn't witness it as it would have turned her stomach. The tables were sticky, the bins overflowing and the floor needed sweeping. Even approaching the front entrance, covered in dirty fingerprints, you'd need a hand sanitiser. This place needs cleaning up on every level, there's no need for it to be in such a disgusting state. I can't fault the staff though, and the food was OK. Final note, the toilets couldn't be used as there's someone doing repairs in the back. Come on KFC, you're a multi million pound company, you can do far better than this in such a popular area; what you are doing is contributing to Blackpool's scruffy image and you're doing none of us any favours.

Waited 20 minutes to be served eventually got a table that had the last family's meal still all over it. Then had to go back to the counter as the Chicken strips and two portions of chips where missing. Halfway through a pot of gravy and we notice ITS OUT OF DATE! Went back to the counter to speak to the rude manager Nicki who told me it's not out of date although the sticker on the lid says otherwise no appoligie or offer of refund. Considering this restuarant is under Blackpool Tower I think Nicki needs to look into her restaurants hygiene standards as the restuarant that she is supposed to be managing is filthy along with damaged light fittings and most importantly defiantly serving out of date food my camera never lies My sister also commented that the toilet was disgusting too apparently the toilet is blocked.

Unfortunately my partner enjoys KFC chicken pieces. Also unfortunately, this is the closest to us, so we end up visiting the establishment a couple of times a month There are regularly missing items from the advertised menu. Today it was no hot drinks, probably because it was a Saturday afternoon, and the staff couldn't be bothered. The portion sizes have shrunk so much, its hardly worth bothering anymore.

Went here for an evening meal - ordered a childs' meal deal - they had run out of drinks so I was offered a fizzy drink not the best to give a 4 year old then a drink of diluted Robinsons cordial - chose neither of these options so I ended up downgrading to a basic popcorn chicken meal. Our meal was not the best either - chicken was just passable but the chips were awful. I would definitely not recommend this establishment and will definitely not be going back.

Sorry to say I agree with the bad reviews. The staff seem in a total panic the whole time and not knowing what they were doing. We went in late both Friday and Saturday night (just because we could not find anywhere else to get anything to eat at half ten at night) they had run out of nearly everything and seemed at a loss at what to do with what they had got. They overcharged us massively last night as they charged us per item rather than any meal deals. I will be emailing kfc about it.

This KFC is too small. Why not try to move and expand the size to fit more tablets and seats because it's always full and the queue always ends up out the door. That's why I always choose McDonald's because they are bigger and have more seats and more room. As for the toilets on here, just one? It's always dirty but won't stop me coming back when it's quiet and I can actually get a seat.

There was a music festival on to be fair, but it has been happening every year at the same time for 20 years so maybe get extra staff in?! It was 9 pm so not tea time, there was plenty of food ready just very slow service, I know its only minimum wage but please! Pulling teeth springs to mind! Anyway, needless to say they forgot a couple of things, we had some white chocolate slushy ice drink which was horrible. Chicken itself seemed small portions.

This branch of KFC is located just by Blackpool Tower, its a small outlet which serves many, not enough seats for the amount of customers it serves, so it will get very cramped, its seriously unstaffed, not enough staff to prepare the food, or serve the food or clean the tables , the toilets are over sight not worth bothering with it seems, this branch seems to want you to purchase your food then leave. The food is actually not bad, I had no complaints on that score, so KFC please get a bigger branch like it deserves.

Ive been to this branch of KFC a few times in the past. Past visits the place has been packed.. and I mean wall to wall. Today was around 5pm so not so busy.This branch is pretty small and I wouldnt advise sitting in. Its small as Ive said and gets damn hot, especially if its already hot outside. In respects of food. Not bad. You know what you're getting dont you? Its KFC for crying out loud.Yes the customer area could be cleaner but this place gets slammed through the day and its tough to clean somewhere when people are standing cheek to cheeck with screaming kids and prams and balloons and fluffy toys the size of a small car!!Staff have been good. A few ditzy ones but always pleasant. They do look a bit frazzled at times but wouldnt you? Its nice to get what you want and head to the beach. Sit on the seats by the comedy carpet or close by on the spanish steps. If you need a bit more shelter head to the other side of the North Pier where there are shelters with seats on all sides so no matter where the rain or wind are coming from you have shelter.

Decided we fancied sharing a bargain bucket and was near the Tower so went into this shop ready for what normally is a treat.On walking in the place felt dirty, non of the tables where cleaned and there's was food all over the floor, this was a Wednesday evening!!Went to the counter and a scruffy looking man with an un kept beard was counting money, he looked at us but out his head back down, we waited but then saw the fries in the container surrounded with bits of food and paper from previous orders.The actual serving hatch was filthy you could hardly make out the chicken behind the greasy glass and the floor, well having worked in McDonalds we would have been shut down for having a surface and discussing as this.Still no response from the middle aged person so after 3/4 minutes we got out fast! Really really terrible experience.As a high rankled advisor on here this is not a flippant review as I reported to Heath and safety authorities.KFC is bringing the hard work people are doing to improve Blackpool down.

I visited the KFC on 3/6/16 after a long day at Blackpool. The food was lovely but I found the journey to the toilets down the long dark corridor quite creepy.

We came here for our tea whilst on a day trip to Blackpool. We didn’t plan on coming here but everywhere else in town seemed to be shutting! There was only one poor guy on and a massive queue. It was not his fault as I’m sure he does not do the rota and just does the shifts he is told. People were complaining but working in the retail sector myself I know that you have the amount of staff working that the management/head office tell you to have, and of course they are never wrong(!!). The problems were nothing to do with this guy, you could tell he was working as fast as he could. Whilst we were queuing I decided to go the toilet. I wished I hadn’t. It was disgusting. The floor was wet, there was wet toilet paper everywhere and it was dirty. The food was ok, just average KFC, but the restaurant itself could have done with a clean up. But again, if he was the only guy working, he couldn’t be serving and cleaning at the same time.

Not much space for eating in it was very cramped and very very untidy and messy. Not enough staff a to give a quality service we waited 17 mins for our food.

Staff are clueless!! I have visited so many times most, staff are so rude, 8 out of 10 times my order has been wrong due to them not being intrested and hardly paying attention to us customers. on one occation a family in front of me accidently spilled a drink and it took staff a good 5 10mins to clean it up. leaving it then unnatended to get a wet floor sighn !! This place really needs to get better trained **happy** staff and a good clean up inside and out

Me and my husband went here wanting to buy a Krushem and two hot wings.We know that the Krushem machines are often broken so we asked before ordering if the machine was working. The woman replies "not really" and without a word to us she went up to the machine, poured out a small amount of Krushem from the machine and turned round to say "come back in 50mins". It doesn't seem like a big thing to moan about simply because it isn't but the Krushem machines are constantly not working or they are always turned off to save money, I don't know. We walked out and decided to go somewhere else.

I love KFC especially if I am working Sundays but it's so slow in here it's a shame as the staff are trying but there doesn't ever seem to be enough. Food is typical kfc. Not part of the kfc rewards program!!

Only stopped for a quick, light, bite to eat to keep us going and there was Queue out the door due to One clueless member of staff on the tills an one run ragged cleaning around. Tables and floor were still dirty. Due to state of seating area didn't even attempt to use the toilet. Limited staff in prep area so there was a wait on the food. And even then the impression was they didn't have a clue what they were doing. There were several Missing items from people's orders. Just poorly ran over all maybe a bit more training is needed to ensure staff provide a satisfactory and professional standard of service.

Awful, miserable staff..cold food, so unhelpful when returned cold food, chicken was definately not fresh as was cooked on the inside but cold. No sauces offered, made to feel like you were putting people out when requested anything. Will not go again. Ever!

The staff in this place are crap. There was a pretty big queue and one of the staff members decided to stop serving people and stand there wiping trays - and she wasn't exactly being quick about it either - leaving only one guy on the tills. KFC is supposed to be "fast food" - staff need better training in customer service obviously.

In KFC we were greeted by hard working staff however the manager was shouting at the staff in front of the public and across the restaurant. It was Unprofessional and unnecessary staff were working hard and trying to do three things at once! We feel the manager needs some skills on how to treat staff and learn management skills.

Awful place. Really rude staff. Order all wrong, and staff rolling their eyes like it was my fault. The place itself dirty and untidy.

Lovely Sunday family treat for my boys birthday. Food and drinks were spot on, and so was the service. We were well looked after by Jay. I’m sure he was hitting on the mother in law, but she loved it and it made the meal fun

Went here for tea on an evening I. Blackpool with my two sons. We were greeted by a very friendly person and seated straight away in a booth next to the window. The menu had lots of choice. We chose pulled pork burger, half roast chicken, loaded potato skins and some onion rings. We ordered and paid at the bar and the staff bought us our drinks and food. The portions were huge and everything was tasty and cooked to perfection. It’s also reasonably priced too. Would definitely come back when in Blackpool.

Myself and best friend had been to the cinema . And by the time we came out so we decided on frankie and bennys . And boy we were so glad we did !! Our server turned out to be a manager . And I must say ... what an asset to your business! Made us feel so welcome . My friend is very pedantic with food but with the recommendations given she cleared the plate . Thank you so much for making us feel so special ❤️ we will be back Our visit was on Tuesday 8th October xx
