KFC Leyton Mills - Retail Park in Waltham Forest

just in time to eat something quickly and continue on the route..

Ordered a 10 hot wing meal with chips gravy and a drink. Instead of 10 hot wings got 5 hot wings with two portions of chips and my flatmates order was also incorrect. Not sure what’s going on there but very disappointing

I had a cappuccino. It was ok. It wasn't busy or crowded. Everything was ok except for the annoying rap music.

I am from Korea After visiting here, I am the best rapper and can dunk shoot

Got an order online and they missed half of our order. Also the food we did get was cold and looked terrible.

KFC leyton honestly serves the food fresh and piping hot due to being very busy demand is high. It deserves 4 stars due to its tasty hot fried chicken. It didn't quite make 5 stars due to cleanliness inside the branch. The bins are always overflowing and the tables are greasy so needs to be wiped more often. Staff are extremely busy.

Went in for just a drink didnt have card been refused service at the till as was busy staff wasnt nice either about it wont eat here again

Had a grab and go lunch while shipping with kids. Good cooked fresh and was served up really well. Staff were doing their job but no smiles or much interaction. Just looked like they had to be their. It was clean and tables cleared really quickly ready for next people.

I went there for a quick takeaway, and it ended up taking over 15 mins to be served. The service was very slow. There were dirty trays left on the tables, which wasn't very nice to see. No one came to clear them away and clean the tables. The music 🎶 was loud, and it was hard to hear them calling out the order numbers. The staff were okay, nothing to write home about. The food, on the other hand, was really nice crispy and hot 🔥 It's not a place that I would visit normally visit. An overall 3 ⭐️ is the best I could give this establishment.

Uhm the best chicken recipe in the world

Ample parking, went to Asda for my opticians appointment, and staff were brilliant. Very happy with my glasses, got a good deal, and introduced my neighbour and friend, and both were very happy with the services they received. Highly recommend it. Asda caters to all nationalities, especially Asians good variety of foods.

Wrongfully banned over an incident at adds Horrible place and Horrible people

Very bad staff give a wrong oder.

Slowest KFC I’ve ever been in. Very basic order of 3 wings and a snack box and I was waiting 30 minutes.

The wings I bought on that day was fresh, crispy and hot. Double Zinger burger again was juicy. You have to order at the kiosk and pay but if its cash, you tap on machine pay at counter.. Clean and they do try to get your order out quickly. Ordered a kids meal and instead of them putting the food in the kids box they put it in the bag so I had to ask for a box.

Yesyerday was Worse kfc I've been to ,I asked to order at the till because I was having trouble with the self order screen ,after alot of huffing and puffing and eye rolling the assistant took my order ,while waiting another woman asked to order at the till ,this time the assistant said NO if you can't do it yourself you can't order ,so she left ..rude staff ,dirty tables and filthy toilets, can't get over how staff speak to customers so rudely!

ridiculous service don’t know how to talk with the customers no manners at all

Place was dirty, and had a very bad food poison after only eating 6 wings. I would suggest to be careful before eating from there is the same with KFC leyton high road.

15:01/2025 I recently visited KFC with my husband and three kids, and it was a disappointing experience. We ordered the big bucket, but the chips were soggy, which was a letdown. The chicken had a strange color and taste, and the coating was also soggy and falling off. It really ruined our evening. To make matters worse, the bathrooms were full of tissue, and there was water all over the eating area. It was not the family-friendly environment we expected. I hope they can improve these issues in the future.

Nice kfc not too big neither small I was gonna eat in buy wasn't hungry but I tried the smoky bbq bites from my friends pot it was nice succulent and fiery I would've spent a lot of money if I came at night.

Absolutely disgusting Place would not recommend to anyone. Tables & Chairs were absolutely Horrendous we found one half clean place and sat there. There is only one person serving and , We had our meal which did not taste that great. 5 to 6 hours later me & the misses fell absolutely sick and I’ve had to miss a day at work today the only thing that I’m relieved about is the fact my daughter didn’t get sick as well as she had a very little kids burger 👎

What a filthy place. One person on duty serving, clearing tables and checking filthy stinking toilets. Litter and grease on floor. Tables dirty and left uncleared for at least fwenty minutes .Chips taste reheated and chicken grease smellinh. The burgers are small and even adukt choice ones wrapped in child size paper. Cheap hand tissues. Chicken full of tiny bones. Cup of tea fantastic. I will never ever return. No value for money. I never complained because only one guy sweating his guts for Colonel or whatever Kentucky. Up the workers.

Whilst the food was OK at best I ordered the 3 piece meal and for the price you expect the best quality fried chicken sadly this was not the case. My chicken was cooked through however the kentucky coating was falling off the chicken. Despite marking my order (7112) as eat in they packed it to go which meant my chicken was thrown into a paper bag which makes the coating stick to the inside of the bag.

Had a very terrible experience with KFC Waited 30 minutes for my order and it was definitely NOT worth it My burger tasted like trash,it was very spicy and oily

Always have seem staff being away from the counter preparing to close and chitchatting in local Telugu language on petty issues rather than serving customer, my order was ready on till at 09:45, received at 10:05, not fast it should be termed slow food

The manager with little beard the most rudest person I have met, he was just aggressive with everyone it put me off he was speaking to people who had little to no English like they where insects absolutely unacceptable. I walked out and went to Subway next door. It was much polite and nicer, avoiding it unless that manager is not there

6th of December 2025 after 4pm me and partner decided to have KFC… I ordered the two piece chicken meal and he had the zinger burger box meal. The first two pieces of chicken were very bad quality and the flesh of the meat was badly bruised and veins. I showed the staff and they knew it was bad and changed it straight away. The next two piece one was breast and thigh.. the thigh was very slightly but tasted old and the breast was dry and stringy and didn’t taste fresh. I ate what I could. My partner enjoyed his burger but his corn on the corn was very dry and I hadn’t experienced bad corn before. After leaving the the restaurant my stomach was hurting me and bubbling. I had to find a toilet asap and til the following day my stomach has been upset and too many times to the toilet. I knew I would be ill the chicken was very bad. Food is serious and KFC should be delivering better standards of food for the high prices. Food poisoning takes a huge toll on the body. It’s not good. To be honest I haven’t been to KFC for a while and this happens. Also about 5 years ago the food in this particular KFC was good. What has changed the staff ?? The quality?? The chicken wing was the same size as the hot wing… Il

KFC never disappoints! The fried chicken is always crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. I love the creamy mashed potatoes and Hot wings,Popcorn & Zinger’S that go perfectly with it. Every bite is comforting, and it’s my go-to for a satisfying, indulgent meal.

The new Starbucks branch is superb. Other shops look a little tired

Tables were filthy. The staff had no ptide in the food

The shop was pretty empty ( 3 people waiting ahead of me ). The staff wouldn't open the till area to serve ( wanted a meal that wasn't on the menu). Took them more than 15 minutes to get my meal ready, which was a 3 piece meal. Chicken and the chips was already on their side. They just wanted to take their time

Terrible food, poor quality! 👎👎 You can literaly count the amount of chips came in my meal! I will not come back here!

Everything here was bad. Chicken is dry, I bought a sauce they don’t have, long waiting time.

Got zinger burger meal, burger was do cold I asked to be changed, and the second one was microwaved to make it hotter where the lettuce was literally melted from heat. You can't be doing this to people's meals had to refund my money back. Staff and chef very bad ,specially the guy who does the burger's rude. Never eating from here again. Bad

I always come here when I want to eat KFC.

Worst experience i was waiting for the hot wings for a long time. The staffs are insufficient and very slow

Even worse than the South Woodford branch. Hygiene standards non existent and extremely slow service, avoid.

Poor service have got a clue what they are doing at Leyton mills poor around .

Very bad service missing chicken and less staff to work

Always getting orders wrong. The guy I saw he didn’t put enough chips for the order, I asked him if he put enough chips, he just goes yeah yeah, got home just to find out 3 chips were missing. This kfc needs to give better training and hire more people. The wait is ridiculous, next time I will be double checking my food. Can’t get a simple order right. I called nobody even picks up.

No box for the boneless banquet as apparently they don't do that here. I order that as its convenient to eat in the van. They don't have bbq sauces either! Seems like Management need to put their hand in their pocket and provide the service that people come to KFC for rather than being tight and ruining the experience for customers who pay a lot of money for this food. Very poor

Slowest fast food I’ve ever experienced.

I waited 35 minutes for my food in the shop they kept saying chicken is cooking loads of customers waiting for their food and the staff were rude and unapologetic. Inside was dirty tables weren't cleaned and toilets were disgusting. Would not recommend at all.

Dirty tables, poor service, and I am sure that they didn't change the oil for a while!

Was ok but nothing fast about this fast food. You must order from the machines, no service at the counter yet it still takes like 45min for your meal 🙄 and mines came burnt, had a normal burger meal box combo but I was soo hungry by the time I got it I had to make do (still didnt finish the burger). Think there is a KFC on the high St, I'd advise you go there instead

The toilets are absolutely disgusting. The floor is sticking, it stinks in.

I ordered 10wings meal and 3 wings separate, the staff said it was in one bag but when I went home it wasn't, they didn't give my 3 extra wings, the buffalo burger I also order smelt of armpit sweat, it was absolutely revolting, I never review food but this made me want to go out my way to review it. I will never eat here again you guys hygiene is absolutely disgusting.

Resturant is absolutely shockingly dirty. Tables dirty , left over food on every table . Floor not swept tables not wiped. Had to ask for a table to be cleared and cleaned as left over food and rubbish on every table. Had my father with me who needed to sit for a few minutes with a coffee. Otherwise would have stayed.

This place is very good for all you like to eat at KFC so go and try it out for yourself

Not the best KFC in the area. Went here yesterday and wasted my money as I left most of it and only ate the fries. The chicken was dripping with oil that tasted stale and it had no flavour whatsoever. Went to the toilet to wash the grease from my hands and alas no soap in the so as p dispenser. AVOID.

Super slow service. Asked 15 minutes to wait, food arrived 30 minutes later. Never ever go there again.

The popcorn chicken was enjoyable, and the fries were decent. The wrap was flavorful, similar to what I've experienced at other KFC locations—nothing extraordinary. I was disappointed to find that they had run out of tomato ketchup.

Wonderful complex where shopping,clothes,food, DIY equipment, gifts,and cards. There is even a petrol station on your way out. No car W14 is right there too to help. It is a great place with lots of amenities #Asda #Card Factory #Starbucks #TK Max #Next #Subway #Poundland #Sports Direct #Burger King #Curry's #Childrens Park

Fast service but the restaurant is absolutely filthy.

We had dinner there, just like that, fast food, we had it near the Apartment, and the Leyton Metro station.

Extremely slow. Uncomfortable seating. Zero napkins or clean wipes. Men's toilets stink. No mirror. Taps to wash your hands utterly useless. If I am in this area again and I am hungry, I will lick the dirt off the car tyres outside.

It was dirty and the trays were filthy 🤧

I come here when I fancy a KFC I only have a two piece meal. It fills a hole.

Good place to sit and eat! If you want to eat in! 😋 Best KFC 🍗 😋

Asked for table service, food came as I ordered, staff looked tired

Why is there an absence of working order machines and only 2 staff members in a busy prime busy shopping area like this. ALSO cash only if you wish to order at a till.

Service very poor. Including the way they speak. And order preparation time is very highly. Even though it is a dine in order. They put that in to a bag. In the screen, order was shown as ready. But counter was not ready to provide it. Food was not that bad. Any way not Reccommending.

Ordered a family bucket of 14 chickens. I must have got 4 nice size chickens and 10 of the smallest and most scrawny chickens I’ve ever seen in my life. This is after waiting 20 minutes for the order. Staff really don’t like serving customers from the till so best to just use self service and hope for the best. The drab interior really needs a makeover. Front door didn’t work properly.

I love the chicken wings The burgers Finger linking

Messy tables and long waiting for food. Toilets are not properly clean.

Leyton mills KFC food is rubbish. I ordered Mega box. Inside box Chicken size and wings size almost similar. Very small pis chicken. Also very dark colour chicken, that's mean oil is over burned or chicken over cooked. Wings two pis, one pis very small and bone are broken. Food quality overall rubbish. I do not recommend Leyton mills KFC anyone. Please check the pictures. Food authority should check and monitoring KFC food. Which KFC branch run by Sri Lankan people, those branch food is disgusting. Thanks

absolutely do not come here, if you want KFC go to the one of the high street. Every single time they have messed up my order and then deny it. I ordered a zinger box meal and a boneless box meal both large with extra gravy and 3 more hot wings. I receive 3 hot wings, zinger box meal small, no boneless banquet and just 3 boneless pieces. It is an absolute joke that I pay so much money to get scammed. I will not be coming back here until there is a much needed staff change .

Food used to good. Not good anymore. Everything is too salty. Just follow the recipe. Can't be that hard. Avoid this kfc

Strange experience for a tourist. The menu seems for an Indian chicken fast food. Nothing to do with KFC classic recipes.

Not as it use to be. There's no taste at all when it comes to flavours and spices. Over salty chicken

Food was fresh and hot ,good seasoned fries.

Worst KFC in UK. From food quality to service, can’t believe any KFC can be worse than this one. Look at the size of the wings, don’t know where they get it from. Asked for plate, tissue and ketchup, the lady gave me very disgusting look and just dump on the counter.

I just had 14 hot wings and it’s just tiny little too small , I don’t know what to say but for me I pay money and i should get right portions .my order number is3229 and receipt code os 107041006233229. KFC Leyton mills thanks.

The worst kfc in the whole of UK. The staff is so rude, all of them. They really need a hygiene recheck in that kfc. The chicken tasted like it was fried from the day before. Please don't buy anything from there or you can be sick.

Placed an order on the self order screens, no paper came out and luckily I was quickly able to take a photo of the order number. Waited patiently for my order to be called out despite the processing screen saying that my order was ready, I realised after a while that the pillock calling out the order numbers had got my number mixed up when I challenged him he realised and without an apology just walked off behind the cooking area. I took the food bag and went, later on I realised that I was short of chicken but it was too late for me to go back to challenge them again as I had left the store. Should I be opening the bag and checking every bag and bucket piece by piece before I leave the store ??? The staff are mostly students from India who have been undertrained with no sense of customer service or manners. A happy customer is a returning customer, the management should not take it for granted that they will have a secure revenue coupled with poor customer experience.

Overall its good, apart from strange and homeless people coming in asking for change while your eating and staff doing nothing about it,

I just came in about an hour ago to buy some chips but most of them were burnt. I only had a few and I feel like I wasted my money. This has happened before. Not good.

My God i will never eat from there again food was tasteless you could count the fries on one hand. Know i wouldn't give any recommendation to anyone

This KFC used to be good. I you order bargain bucket please check on the counter your food before leaving. out of 10 pieces of chicken at least 7/8 piece are well below standard, also despite its busy, I don't understand their chicken feels 1 day old not fresh at all. Perhaps they don't change oils often or using chicken which is nearly expired. Rice portion are only 2 spoon of rice in the container, it's like they think when people going to open they wouldn't see, I mean what is the point selling Rice when there are none in the container. Five lads, Manjaro and smoke & pepper are expensive than KFC but at least you eat fresh and tasty. I guess KFC abusing their busy location and letting the standard down. My kids sometimes ask for KFC, just for the kids I go there. But from now on I'll be checking my food on the counter. Plus corn are absolutely rubbish, same old rotten feel to it. Fried chicken color is extremely dark brown not like old times. This is very very sad. I don't say that you do should not buy but check your food before leaving the restaurant, otherwise you'll be massively disappointed when you go home.

Nice, clean, however on our visit, only cash payers were served at the tills. Card payments were self service only.

What's going on with not accepting card at the till?? I couldn't use the blue light discount and pay contactless because the barcode won't scan on the self-service machine.

service at zero. the place is below the bottom!!!!

I feel there is a lot of room for improvement

Very small piece and hardly any chips 🍟 and the service very poor

Nice staff, quick food service, fresh food.

I had the worst experience here the other day. The cashier called out my number and checked my receipt and then gave me the wrong food. I didn’t want to complain so I just kept the food and then she calls me out infront of the whole store saying I took the wrong order. When I asked her for a solution she was like i don’t know and then called her manager. The manager started getting rude and saying don’t you care if your order was wrong why didn’t you say anything. I told him I didn’t want to be rude because the store was busy. He kept shouting at me asking the same questions. He pulled out the receipt for the person it was supposed to be for and the lady the food belonged too agreed with me saying the cashier called out my number and not hers. Then he processed to say I have to pay like £2.50 more and then I asked why am I paying more money when I paid more for my food than what food I was given. Then after shouting at me infront of the whole store realises my food was worth more and then tells me to just leave and to give my receipt to him. Other customers were also shocked by the way they both spoke to me and I’m obviously not coming back again.

Food is always on point here, chicken is fresh and crispy, unlike the branch in Mile end where they are more hit and miss

This place has been recently refurbished. Great new and clean look. Plus staff is quite friendly. They also have a self check out counter which is a great installation as queues can build up quite quickly 😀

Look tidy and clean. The staff are helpful enough.

They changed the size of chicken, similar size if you compare with the wings.

I have had a deliveroo order from there, they always lying to customers about they have no ingridents. Very rude approach to customers.

One of the girls at this restaurant is so rude. Not in only one occasion but several times.

Very bad customer service people are working here treat customer like they are boss of kfc

Great food and plenty of seating! The staff seem the same as in most KFC's. I have had quite a few occasions were my order has been mistaken which is very annoying as the same thing happens to me all the time at the KFC on Leyton High Road. Not too bad overall, a pretty good spot to stop by if you're looking for a quick meal.

Все знают KFC,всё вкусно ,быстро

Extremely disappointing, used the interactive screen to order food for eat-in. It prompts to add table number so order can be brought over when ready ... sat waiting like idiots only to be find out when enquiring about order that our food was just sitting on the counter getting cold exposed to everyone until we picked it up, due to staff shortage. The food itself was cold, overcooked (very dark, not golden brown), extremely dry and tasteless. Some of the food, instead of crispy batter was soft as though it had been steamed rather than deep fried. My wife had ordered a tea but they didn't have any teabags (the outlet is within walking distance of a large Asda) so ended up with a bottle of water instead. No sugar supplied or offered with my coffee so had to go back to the counter to ask for some. Overall the whole experience was very disappointing, the food is nowhere near as nice as it used to be especially considering the prices now, I would definitely not be returning.

Shopping at Asda, B&Q was great.

The staff need training in customer service. The place has gone downhill and the food has given me a stomach aches.

Хороший заклад, хороше місце. Можна зайти швидко поїсти, дуже хороший сервіс. Не вистачає чистоти, часто дуже брудно.
