KFC in Tampa

“Definitely the best KFC I have ever been to!!
My meal was ready before I finished paying.
Plus, the clerk who took my order was so outrageously attractive, ? adorably short, and cute that I had a great deal of difficulty keeping my chin off the floor.“

“It's really just another KFC you know the menu is the same wherever but the people are super nice super friendly if there's any problems they correct it and I like people like that it's my go-to on my end of town when I want some good old KFC fried “

“I come here a lot with my son. The team is always very friendly and the food is hot and juicy. My favorite is the chicken nuggets and mac n cheese.

With other locations I've been to the mac n cheese is sad and dry. But here it almost always perfect.“

“The employees and managers were very nice and the store was busy and they took our orders and they never missed a beat thank you for an amazing service and the hard work that y’all put in. The store was very clean and so was the restrooms and I was so surprised that the trash cans wasn’t over flowing like the other KFC that we had went too in Saint Pete. I want to thank the Tampa store for an outstanding service“

“My Mother's Day meal from KFC was absolutely fabulous the Mother's Day crew at KFC mid-afternoon was fabulous the biscuits the chicken was cooked perfect we got a 8-piece mix with two sides and two coleslaw and six biscuits ?? had a coupon and the Mother's Day dinner from KFC was fabulous thank you KFC

Vegetarian options: Mashed potato bowl with cheese and corn macaroni and cheese bowel“

“I've been going to this KFC my entire life and today I had the juiciest chicken breast I have ever had at any KFC. And the girls were the friendliest and fastest I've seen in a long time. Those ladies in there working today May 7th 2022 around 6:30 needs a pat on the back and a raise cuz they knocked it out of the park tonight.“

“I did drive thru so I don’t know the inside. But the food was warm, everything was packed properly, nothing was missing and the customer service was great. They even asked me if I wanted sauces or ketchup and if I needed extra napkins. That’s how it should be but that’s not how it is everywhere anymore.“

“Only reason I put a 3 for the food is I ordered the five-dollar special which really should be one piece of chicken I've gone here multiple times I spoke with a young lady that was working there seemed like the manager and I mentioned to her last time the extra piece of chicken on the five-dollar meal it was very small basically like a chicken leg and I don't know how other people handle customer service but if it was me the second time that I went back and mentioned it I would have just given a normal piece of chicken to somebody I don't think it's going to cost KFC maybe I don't know two pennies but anyway is the KFC on East Busch Boulevard they were very nice very accommodating the place is very clean it's just all disappointed with what I got for my money for three dollars more I could have gotten the three-piece meal and been more than happy KFC I've been eating it for years that's very good just I wouldn't recommend that $5 meal that they have“

“I feel like a lot of people forgot KFC is real food, not some fried goo like some places and that it can take a while to get it. Depending on how busy the drive-thru is and if they get slammed. The staff is human, not some NPCs in a video game. I feel like a lot of people forgot that. People make mistakes. I come here a lot with my son and the food is always so yummy. I usually leave this place feeling happier because of the good food and the friendly service. The only time I leave sad is when other customers are rude for no reason. Like giving the front cashier a hard time because they don't have pepper or it took some extra time for them to get special ordered "fresh food."“

“I’ve been to this KFC a few times over the past year, mostly because it’s convenient to the area and one of the few spots still open late, but every visit leaves me feeling like it could be so much better with just a little more attention to detail.

The food itself is hit or miss. When they get it right, the chicken is hot, crunchy, and exactly what you expect from KFC. But honestly, that doesn’t happen consistently.

More often than not, something in the order is off missing sauces, no butter for the biscuit, or the sides look like they’ve been sitting there too long. I’ve had a few dry tenders, lukewarm fries, and bowls that looked rushed. Not terrible, just not great.

Service really depends on the time of day. I’ve had a couple of employees who were friendly and tried their best even when it was busy, but I’ve also had visits where it felt like nobody wanted to be there.

The vibe can be a little chaotic people moving slowly, long pauses at the register, and sometimes they’re out of basic stuff (sauces especially). It’s not rude service, just kind of unorganized and low energy.

Drive-thru is usually slow, even when there aren’t many cars, and I’ve learned to check my bag before pulling out because small things get left out pretty often. Inside, the dining area is decent but could use more frequent cleaning. It’s never disgusting or anything, but the tables can stay dirty longer than they should, especially at night.

Prices have crept up too, which would be fine if the quality matched, but it’s frustrating to pay $10/20 and still end up with a half-complete order.

The only real plus is the late hours and the location. If you’re craving fried chicken and don’t feel like driving across town, this place will get the job done. Just go in with realistic expectations, double-check your order, and hope you land on one of the better shifts.

This location definitely has potential, but consistency is the big issue. I’d come back for convenience, but it’s not a place I’d go out of my way to visit.“
