KFC Leeds - Skelton Lake Services in Leeds

One of the best service stations we have visited.

Our order was over an hour late and was flat cold messaged the driver and he said athe customer before sent him to another address not impressed at all

Very very slow service. Customer and delivery drivers all waiting for over 25/30 minutes for smaller orders. Understandable if it was busy. However there was only 2 delivery drivers and 1 customer waiting. Whole building was rather quiet

everything that i ordered was wrong

Very busy but I expected that. The staff are fast and efficient while maintaining friendliness, also polite. A small wait for food but they whizz through the orders pretty fast Food was spot on, hot, fresh and tasted good, not overly cooked or greasy which is just what you need when travelling, portions were good and not to big a price difference from a large cal KFC. I would definitely use again when passing.

Lovely clean and airy services. Not too busy either.

Closed Pay for parking hgv driver and they shut early !! Pissed right off

Absolutely terrible service the tills close at 6.30pm apparently and only food can be ordered on machines with no cash payment available

Very good place to break up my journey

Staff were friendly, and the service was good considering how busy it was it the time.

Was ok, burger bun was stale and rock solid :(

Food was cold and missing items, which just eat refused to compensate for.

It's a service station where everything is marked up. But it does what it should

The viewing platform offers something a lot of other service stations don't

Very nice clean well laid out service area, with places to walk dog's £75 penalties for wrongful parking in Blue badge areas. Plenty of different food outlets to suit any taste.

A good service station to stop at still looks new and is relatively clean.

Clean and modern, all of the standard food outlets

Lots of different eateries, KFC zpizz Express ,& Greggs too. Some eateries you can dine in.

Stopped to take a break going and coming back from holiday lots of different places inside to get something to eat and drink

Another favourite service station. Relatively new service station. KFC was very tasty had spicy chicken burger with fries, always a favourite of mine. Friendly staff.

Great service station, as far as service stations go. Decent selection of food outlets to suit all palates.

A beautiful truck stop with all the facilities

This is one of our favourite service stations. Now complete with a McDonald's, not many of those around! We love the play park out the back and has a really nice feel. Also has other children's toys. Real one for families

Very nice, clean, except male toilets were bit dodgy (was on weekend though) organised and there is a multi-faith prayer room

Lovely new service station. Well laid out and lots of choices. Good place to stop.

Excellent cappuccino then food shop in m and s. I needed a break from the gridlock on M1

very rude staff and you have to be careful if you have everything you ordered in the package

was supposed to get free prawn crackers these never arrived xxx

Great place for stop off and toilets plenty of shops and food buys and coffee brilliant

Ok so it’s a services so not exactly glamorous but we love this little place. Lots of seating, clean loos and pretty relaxed. Good food choices. ‘Chopstix’ Chinese is really recommended - much better than the usual fast food and a full meal in itself

Delivery was fine. Previous order no chips and this one Wrong drink and no gravy received

Bit of a wait, tght food wouldn't be ready in time for my bus leaving..my ice cream was left on the bench ages while waiting for the rest of my order...so melted by time it came..

1st time called here lovely service station if there is such a thing ! Worth a calling in

Brilliant service station. The standard of what all service stations should look too.

Reasonable truck parking but only 2 showers for more than 50 truck parking spaces. Very expensive park

It took ages to get our food as they had ran out of chicken. Although they were not to blame..... 2nd Saturday of the month there is a massive car meeting in the overflow car park with 100s of cars attending. All the food was perfect. Thank You

Had a really good experience, Freya was really helpful and recommended me the zinger burger meal!! Safe to say the food and the service was amazing . Thank you

Fantastic service and food was hot

I had a really good experience today and great customer service by Freya, she gave me good recommendations for my elderly grandmother and she was very polite and welcoming. Good to see good customer service at fast food places

I have just experienced the worst customer service imaginable by your assistant Freya. The gates were closed and we just asked when they were opening, she rolled her eyes at us and opened the gates, The order screens were all out of order so had to order at the counter with her, Very unfriendly, to the point of being very rude, obviously didn’t want to be at work today, no smile and literally threw our order at us with a … there you are. Absolutely horrendous, worst service ever!!!!!

Well earned break after 2hr drive, usual tasty KFC meal, access to bridge across motorway was closed so no access to Burger King.

A regular stop off for my journey across the North. Always clean and easy parking.

That wasnt what i order for i order for a bucket of chicken and i got something else

Pretty good motorway service area.

Service n quality excellent in n out in no time

As service stations go this one is pretty swanky!!

Our favourite services and improving every visit. Always spotless and a good range of eateries

2nd visit around midday. Lunch snack courtesy Leon. Quick service, tastey salad, good value ( for motorway break) Surrounded by meadow grasses ( and roofed with same) and so butterflies in evidence. Good children's play area. Petrol on sale very reasonably priced too.

Called in at around 9:30 pm (Election night) several places closed (early!) Server at Greggs very cheerful and obligingly. Cheap and cheerful cafine hit, limited selection warm offerings.

Ordered a boneless banquet and only got chips, gravy and 3 chicken strips. Other meal came with a Pepsi which had almost no syrup and was mostly soda water. Worst KFC I’ve ever been to. I was the only customer at the time. No excuse.

How can you bring food with only half the order. This is ridiculous.

A short break on the journey home from Helmsley

Didnt send any of the food i actually ordered

ordered a meal. missing chips and gravy. always seems to something wrong whenever ordering from here

Good options for food unfortunately though the only coffee shop was Starbucks which I detest.

Great resting spot, no motorway noise, nice surroundings and plenty of space inside and outside to spend your break. The place is clean and looks well maintained and also friendly and approachable staff.

Wrong order delivered. No one answering phone so we can sort it out. Would not recommend

Lady serving clearly couldn't be bothered doing anything, couldn't speak hardly at all. Spent more time kicking rubbish around the floor than working.

Only called in for a cold drink whilst out walking.. There is quite a selection of places to eat and drink, and can be accessed via the Woodlesford locks pathways or via road.. There is also Toilet facilities and plenty of outdoor seating, as well as a children's play area.

Isa is a rude member of staff. I went to the till to place and order because I wanted to pay by cash. Before I could get a word Isa was only too eager to tell me to order at the machines. When I informed him I want to pay by cash, he couldn't have looked more disatisfied about it if he tried. Sorry to inconveience you Isa but its your job. Cash is still in circulation the last time I checked and not everyone wants to pay by card. Anyway, he made me wait some time before he took my order and payment because he was too busy looking at order receipts. Customer service is terribly poor.

Chicken was cold in middle wasn’t nice at all everything was just thrown in it was a mess and very cold

Clean, busy and efficient staff, impressed.

One of the best service area's that we have visited. Very clean and tranquil with plenty of choice for food and refreshments.

Nice atmosphere rsbp garden at the back with lake and birds No road noise to say it's next to a motorway good for children well recommended

Poor when you can't cook chicken right. So i followed the link and your customer service is as poor as the food I was served. Wasted my time not quite sure why you'd do that.

Your typical motorway services. But has loads of parking both car and hgv . Very clean inside and out , with modern toilet facilities and great kids playground out back

No chips and ketchup on burger even tho my son is allergic to tomatoes

I recommend this place for a moment of rest during your journey. You can eat delicious food and relax with your family. Disabled people will not have any problems with parking their cars.

The worst chicken burger I have ever eaten!!! Tiny strip of chicken 😡

This is my favourite motorway sevice. Mostly because of the building in eco style. Also Leon offers relatively best fast food. It is good. There are playgrounds for kids, if you go to the outside area near the toilets. And picnic tables. I wish more people used this nice area, because otherwise you see teens on bikes making trouble there.

Very busy but the food was hot at to the KFC standard. Unfortunately the drinks were not. The machines need calibration.

There's no chips put on the recipe it say I did order

Good choice of food outlets. Nice and clean and new compared to other Services Stations.

A clean and well organised service station.

This in general is one of my favourite services, always clean and tidy with lots of seating. It's different to others as has a lake and playpark and a great variety of sit in and take out food. KFC there is good and quick.

Stopped here on my way towards Scarborough. Decent place and well maintained

When ever we order from kfc we never get it all ???

My food wasn't delivered at all !!!

Always having a stop here when travelling from the North-East to South and vice versa. Easy access from both M1 the north and the south.

Excellent from start to finish. Great service 👌

Spotlessly clean. Staff were very helpful

I don't know if the KFC employees share the wings. But if it's a chicken wing, I'm an astronaut!

Crowded and parking car is hectic

Untrain and very slow staff waiting for delivery more than 30 minutes

Really pleasant services and staff with the advantage of an area to the rear for dog walking and children play area.

I like this services nocecand open plenty of sesting, and a wide variety of food outlets.

I have visited the Mosque 🕌 and it's so Nice

They didn’t get me a drink so what do I do about that

Had to wait 15 mins for the chicken. Yep, you read that right!

Great place for a relax and some food after a long drive..new modern facilities...clean and pleasant staff.

Only stopped for a coffee. Nice and clean. Better than all the older motorway service stations.

Glad to say I won't be back in this dismal service area

Great stop on along journey good walks around the area and a good play area for the children

Skelton Lakes is a really pleasant place to stop when taking long trips.

I stopped by the services yesterday and decided on a kfc, the service was definitely 5 star, I believe the man’s name was Mo, I had the trilogy box it was lovely

Visited about 7pm, shame only food outlets open, no shops.

They have started using their 'Signature Fries', but please be aware they have too much pepper in the mix. If you only want salted fries, you have to ask for them. I'm guessing that the later in the day you visit, you'll run the risk of the chicken being too dry. I can honestly say it's was the worse KFC I have ever had. It's only for a treat while travelling.

Was a little disappointed with the 2 original pieces I received in my mighty bucket for one. Definitely chose the smallest pieces they had to hand so not the best in terms of food. Staff were lovely though and plenty of seating since it shares a large common area.

Completely ignored by the staff for 15 minutes, when I finally got one of them he said they are too busy to take any orders
