Not had KFC for about 5 months, usually not bad value and enjoyable!! After getting back from holiday we decided to order 1, I couldn’t believe the cost which was the first annoyance, when the food arrived it was the worst value for money, a boneless banquet £11.99 expecting to have something substantial, it contained 3 chicken selects, a tiny bag of chips, a small box of pop corn chicken which I think had 10 tiny pieces in it, and a coleslaw. We ordered 2 of these, a burger meal which was probably the only thing that came near to being worth it, and a tiny bag of chips and 3 chicken selects, with delivery it came to a whopping £51 pounds. Never again. I understand things have gone up but you certainly get way less.

Visited today with a couple of work colleagues for a quick lunch and the service was ridiculous. Very slow staff and the service was horrible. Could hear some staff arguing, seem like a group of unprofessional kids. This can’t be good for KFC.

Awful establishment, seems to be run by a group of teenagers with no idea how to run a business, they have no customer service skills, waited over 20 minutes for food without a apology, it is known for being exceptionally bad in local area, would not recommend

Just ordered a box meal for delivery as a treat. I’ve never got the box meal before but the picture looked good. Delivered really quickly so how is it possible the burger is not only cold but there’s nothing of it! Chips not even cooked hard still. Only thing hot was the mash.

No sauce available, no reciept or napkins given. Went though the drive-through and was given the wrong order. Gravy was watery and tasteless and was given the wrong size. Zero customer service, young kids who couldn’t have cared less. Now too expensive for what it is anyway The last few times I have ordered there has been something wrong, says it all when there’s a half price offer on min fillet buckets and the place was like a ghost town. Will not be going back.

Absoulte shambles of a place. On three occasions ive ordered ive had issues but gave them the benefit of doubt as times are hard. But they are taking the biscuit when i recieved my food tonight. Kfc is already over priced but for the standard of this store its beyond. I was missing over half my food and what i did recieve was freezing and rock solid completely un edible. I even recieved mash potato the other day with no labels on and when i opened it was like pillow stuffing vile. Shut the place down i say!

Husband and I called in with our toddler,went through drive through which was empty....I did wonder why but now I know! Asked for Pepsi,had Pepsi max given to us. There was barely any chips (literally half a dozen each) and they were soggy and luke warm. Chicken on the bone was slimy and smelt funny so I didn't eat much...ate my chicken burger though as that seemed OK although it was cold. Beans were so hot you couldn't touch the carton...such a contrast against the chicken and chips. Had to ask for salt/napkins etc...wouldn't have had them otherwise. Expensive food and really poor quality. I understand why this place is always dead whilst McDonald's down the road is absolutely heaving...that speaks volumes. Staff were abrupt and disinterested,could do with some training on customer service skills. Luckily our toddler didn't eat any chicken as my husband and I both had severe stomach cramps and diarrhoea following the meal. Very very poor. Will never use again.

I ordered the Deluxe Boneless Feast through the drive thru. No Pepsi Max bottles available so had to have full fat Pepsi, then got home and there's no chips in the bucket. If you try and ring nobody will ever pick up! Here's the problems at this store: 1. There is a severe lack of stock control here. They seem to seriously under order stock and have always been the same. They run out of basic stuff like Gravy at say 5pm even though they are open until 10/11pm. They have been known to actually run out of chicken on numerous occasions aswell. 2. The sitting area inside is always very very dirty with overflowing bins and dirty tables covered in food and drinks. The problem is is that KFC don't hire Lobby staff like McDonald's do to keep the area clean, tidy & organised. This means that the front counter or kitchen staff have to come out and clean whenever they are free, which is hardly ever. 3. They either care far too much about the cost of Labour or cannot organise staff on work stations. You will regularly see just one person serving on a till inside and just one or two on the drive thru interacting with the customers, but then say 6 or 7 staff in the kitchen during busy periods. Surely that's not right? They either need to put more staff on to deal with customers or think about bringing some kitchen staff on to the front area to help out in peak times. Above all this I also just think that they genuinely don't care about the job they have to do compared to other fast food companies. In my opinion McDonald's workers are far better trained and are more proficient in customer care

Ordered a large variety gravy bucket on Christmas eve. Had to wait in the car park for about 10 minutes and when we got the food home after a 5 min drive the chips were limp, cold and uncooked. Popcorn chicken cold. The fillets and chicken were hot but disappointed about the rest. This was our second disappointment in a row so unfortunately will not return to this branch.

We went to the drive though no answer on the telecom outside so we drove to the server hatch and told them the telecom did not take our order only to get told by the girl behind the hatch with a stinking attitude that there was no order taken so when I told her that no on answered the telecom she made it out as my fault and started give us attitude so when when we told her we been in the queue for 15 minutes she turned around no sorry or anything and told us you can go inside if we want still makeing it out it was our fault again by telling us that we were not close enough to the telecom then told her we had been there before so we know how it works so in the we went inside in the end ordered food and asked to see the manager next thing we know the staff come from the back and and just looked at me as I was talking to the manager she was just about useful as a chocolate teapot still trying to make it out as it was our fault but her attitude changed when I am contacting head office so we collected the food the chips was rank they give Pepsi max cherry we asked for Pepsi max the staff need retraining in customer service

Visited with the family on a saturday evening and we were utterly disappointed. First of all, the table was so dirty that we had to clean it up ourselves and there were trays left all over the place. They also had no gravy or krush 'ems (but when do they ever?) The food took an astonishingly long time to come out despite there being approximately 3 groups of customers in the place. When our order finally did get called the staff had to ask us what drinks we had ordered.As we were eating we realised that our extra side that we had ordered hadn't been given to us so went back up to the counter to ask for that and the ice cream that comes with the kids meals. The member of staff informed us that the ice cream machine wasn't working; he was very rude about it and then just walked off as if he couldn't care less. Another member of staff then came over to give us some muffins as compensation for the ice cream but goodness knows where they came from as they were rock hard as if they'd been frozen! Will definitely not be returning to a filthy restaurant with staff who really shouldn't be working in customer facing roles. Absolute disgrace.

Well at least I could get a hot drink this time, but all else went down hill-----Tables and chairs filthy.. no excuse.Toilets x 2 crap and blood?? in both. Made my gd wipe her hands on paper towels rather than going in there!! Sign says tell someone - umm the only people are cooking or serving food - SO NO!!Waited for the 1 person doing the front order as in this place it seems an order cannot be taken until the previous fulfilled?? So its no longer fast food??Apparently the original order is not on the menu and is called something else so 3 piece original meal has now become a minefield??Ok girly got her meal - it was freshly cooked but greasy beyond belief !!We had sour cherry and salted caramel Krushems - salty ?? To the point of inedible for normal people. Cherry edible but really not nice at all. Grand daughter went up and ordered a oreo Krushem, came back with a tub of plain ice cream with 8 sprinkles of biscuit???. This place has a flip screen menu which does not apply to things sold so why bother - the touch screen does not have everything that should be on the menu either?? Terrible filthy place.

My husband went over to Blackwood KFC and was 1 hour 15 mins out of the house! Bear in mind we live 10 minutes away. He said you couldn't order at the window and had to go inside and that something or other was broken so the girl said. The chips were so burnt they were inedible and i found 2 hairs in my food. The beans were cold and tasteless. Havn't been there for a long while and it will be a long while before i have food from there again.

Went there on the weekend for something to eat. Waited for 20 mins for my order, queried with the poor girl behind the counter who told me that they been told that the main priority is the drive through and i will have to wait. Give them a minute to get my order or will have a full refund. Eventually meal came with a complimentary drink. Sat down and noticed that the bins were over flowing with rubbish and it didnt look like they had been emptied throughout the day, People were putting their rubbish on top of other rubbish, even on the floor. Just wish my phone had more battery to take a photo of the place. Will not set foot inside a kfc again and maybe environmental health should pay a visit.

I live for the day Blackwood KFC has a full menu available, if they haven’t got gravy (which is often) they haven’t got chicken. The staff need to smile more and if you go through the drive thru (if it’s ever open) be prepared to wait 10 minutes before thy acknowledge you. Also the chips are always cold and soggy. Close it down and build a Burger King instead

Me and my partner went through the drive thru, ordered a wrap, two lunch boxes and a krushem. The food took about 5 minutes, not a bad wait really but when the food came it was absolutely awful. All of it was cold, the chips are stail and the lunch box certainly didn't have extra large fries. Was really disappointed by it and was going to call up and complain straight after but honestly didn't feel it was worth my time. I used to go here quite often but it just seems to be going downhill, I probably won't be returning any time soon.

Come to your store last Sunday . Used drive through facilities. Had two orders and needed to pay separately but was told only 1 order per car ( why this is i have no idea !! ) i then placed my order and went around to the window to pay . When I got to the window I was then told that the coffee wasn't working and yet again they had no gravy ! I only come to KFC because I love the gravy but this store has never got any in stock , when I questioned why I was told that there is a new policy and when the gravy is all gone then it's all gone . Now I get this but I visited at 3 o clock . This is still lunch time !!! Something needs to be done here because the staffs attitude stink , the manager needs to sort out production and the place needs a bloody good clean ! What happen to the guest always comes first ???

We thought okay let's not let it spoil our order even though the last time we visited there was no napkins or gravy . we started to eat our food to find the chips was cold and the chicken was full of grease and wasn't nice at all .

3 meals and not one of them edible. Fries were cold and tasteless but the worst was the chicken. I had a twister meal and it was all going well until I bit into a piece of chicken; it was cold and like rubber. Impossible to chew. Pulled the wrap apart and there was no coating on the chicken and it didn't look like it had even seen an oven. Next time I will definitely be sitting in the queue in McDonalds.

To start they had no tango or hot wings, the chips came out warm and tasted like they had been left out for hours. The big daddy was dry and tasteless not much flavour. There was way to much batter on the boneless banquet meal also. I won't be eating at this one in Blackwood again.

Cold dry and tasteless and that's just the start. Chicken tastes likes it's been left on hot hold far too long. Actually the chicken burger was that dry it disintegrated in my hand not good guys staff very friendly but manager needs to manage and get off his back side

If you are a fan of cold tasteless fries then this is the place for you. If this is the standard of food on offer on a Saturday evening I'll stick to beans on toast. Last visit for us!

There was a smell when we went in, the food was cold and I've spent most of the day on the loo. Not happy, won't be going again.

Tried it again and must be the poorest KFC around - if it's not the wrong order with items missing it's overcooked or dripping with grease. Haven't had this experience from other KFC's around the country so think they need to look at others for some inspiration.

Everytime I go here for a drive throw I get home and my order is wrong ..... So my advise to you all , check your order before you leave otherwise you will be disappointed . Staff could be a little bit more friendly . You normally need to park up and wait , as something needs to be cooked yet not always is it fresh tasting ?????? Something isn't right ???? My only good point is the gravy is delicious .

I went there after some shopping and every single table and the floor as filthy, I flelt very uncomfortable eating in this place, we even asked someone to clean up and the girl said she will be right back to clean, we never saw her, clean up your act! Disgracefull !

Bins overflowing with food dumped on top and flies flying around the food. Restaurant is not very busy, so no excuses for them not to be emptied. Food luke warm.

Went to KFC yesterday there were two people in the queue before us and it still took 20 mins to get served. When we did the food was warm, thought we would it in as I sat down on the only cleanish table, I looked around and there was food all over the floor, the tables had half eaten chicken on it, and the bins were overflowing you could put your rubbish in. Left and ate in the car, felt like I needed a shower it was so dirty.

If you have a long time or are not in a rush to eat then please use this kfc and you will be ok where as if you want warm food that gives you what you ask for and serves what is on the menu then go some where else

The dirtiest, shabbiest, poorly presented KFC I have had the misfortune to visit.Usually avoid KFC ever since a 'deep fried mouse' incident in Glasgow in the 90's, but was forced here by the wife who had a hankering for a zinger burger.Pepsi Co. supply drinks here, so there's no Coke or Sprite.Hash browns pale, insipid and tasteless.Customer service (if you can call it that) is severely lacking, no napkins provided, have to ask for a straw.But really, the first impression from the car park is so bad I cannot believe the KFC hierarchy haven't intervened (Presume this is a franchise outlet) .

If I could rate this restaurant zero stars I would. I have never eaten somewhere so disgusting and unhygienic in my life. Me and many others have become violently ill after eating here, chicken is served very undercooked and on one occasion raw. Will not be returning to this place ever again.

Food cooked well. Not too grease as some other establishments are. Atmosphere OK. Comfort OK. Easy access and close to Town Centre and Superstore.

Never again! After shopping in Halfords opposite I took the kids to KFC. Having waited ages to be served by young staff who were more interested in discussing other customers openly, we were finally served. Chips were bland, chicken nothing special and there were lots of litter on the floor. Few weeks later I had a parking ticket. I didn't realise there was a time limit of 2 hours and will never go there again, not even to Halfords. When you are buying a bikes for your children it takes time trying various ones out etc and between the 2 places 2 hours easily passed.

"Escape to the 1920s" for a "premium drinking experience" encourages the website. The photos depict a cosy, sophisticated location. So we were excited for our visited. On arrival, a gigantic TV screen was blasting the rugby match to the extent that it was difficult to hold a conversation. This wasn't mentioned when I booked. So not 1920s, not immersive, not cosy, not relaxed, not transported to a time gone by. Just generally not the atmosphere that is advertised.
