KFC West Gosford — Restaurant in New South Wales

One finds oneself drawn to the siren song of comfort food with surprising regularity. On a recent escapade, I ventured into a local establishment of the Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) persuasion, eager to indulge in the nostalgic flavors of bygone eras. While the experience possessed a certain rustic charm, a few elements fell short of achieving true gastronomic satisfaction.

The ambience, one must confess, was not conducive to a particularly refined soiree. The décor leaned towards a utilitarian aesthetic, prioritizing swift service over lingering contemplation. The cacophony of automated pronouncements and hurried footsteps provided a rather pedestrian soundtrack to the meal.

The menu itself presented a straightforward selection, dominated by various permutations of breaded and fried chicken. I opted for the Colonel's original recipe, a classic iteration lauded for its herbaceous blend of eleven secret herbs and spices. The presentation, however, left something to be desired. The chicken pieces arrived nestled within a paper container, their golden exterior marred by a few errant flecks of char.

Upon closer inspection, the breading exhibited a curious inconsistency. While some portions achieved a satisfyingly crisp texture, others displayed a disconcerting sogginess. The vaunted blend of herbs and spices, while present, seemed curiously muted, failing to deliver the anticipated burst of flavor. The accompanying mashed potatoes, though undeniably creamy, lacked a certain vibrancy, their natural starchiness untempered by any discernible seasonings.

The saving grace of the meal proved to be the coleslaw. This refreshingly acidic counterpoint, a vibrant medley of shredded cabbage and a tangy dressing, provided a welcome respite from the richness of the fried chicken. Its inclusion demonstrated a keen understanding of the need for textural and gustatory contrast within a meal.

In conclusion, while my recent sojourn to Kentucky Fried Chicken evoked a sense of comforting familiarity, it ultimately fell short of achieving culinary grandeur. The hurried atmosphere, coupled with the inconsistency in the preparation of the signature dish, detracted from the overall experience. However, the inclusion of the zesty coleslaw offered a glimmer of hope, suggesting a potential for improvement through a renewed focus on detail and a touch of gastronomic finesse. Perhaps a future visit will unveil a more refined iteration of this iconic American classic.

Firstly, try to do professional business on timetable. This is mine 3rd time i found KFC west Gosford was closed 9:30pm, i dont know how long this is keep going, Usually i dont jump there at evening time but whenever i go there front door is always closed but today even Drive-thru was also closed. Last time i speak with the staff she said it's a father's day so we closed fast because sort of staff. But today one young girl was at window with headphone. I asked her Is KFC closed she said YES, i asked what time is supposed to be closed then her face turned Red because it was just 9:30pm. Then i asked can i speak to the supervisor then she said yes, she went inside discuss with all girls and came saying sorry our automatic speaker wasn't working nicely so it says closed and can served for me, wait..... then what about her own mouth tongue speaker she said me closed. Then one little girl from back says He's lost to me, Is that the way to talk with the customer. But the girl whom i deal was ready to serve me with red face being panic i asked Zinger box with 1 serve of spare burger she said no wings, okay i dont want to bother them making a order as they all already started cleaning and mopping the floor then i cancel the order. I know its hard job standing all the day on foot for young kids, how much stress it is But 30mins earlier closing doesn't make sense and doesn't looks fair, 10-15 mins earlier is fine everyone wants to close the shop and go home soon. Actually iam not the type of person who wants to point out other people and their mistakes but today forcefully it makes me to speak with them and write a review because it's not 1time 3times i faced this problem. Hope you guys will be good on timetable and do professional...

Ordered 2 popcorn nugget boxes and a 6 pack of wicked wings through drive through, upon getting home I find I'm missing my nearly $10 wicked wings and had to make a 10 minute drive back. I was handed the wings and I requested a refund for wasting my time to which led to an argument with staff who believe the "replacements" cover the wasted time and fuel and I was told to "next time just call so you can get store credit" as if that change the missing items my pregnant partner was craving. This was when I met BROCK... I requested to speak to Brock's manager to which he lied to me and claimed he was the Genral manager, when I proved him to be untruthful he stated you can call the complaint line and handed me their number. At this point I asked for their privacy policies and terms and conditions to which Brock stated that's confidential and I won't be giving it to you and continued to refuse when stated with the fact it's a legal right. He suggested I just "go home and google what ever I want".

Is this the kind of managers you train?

It is illegal to deny someone access to your terms and conditions and privacy policies. (This should be accessible at the front counter). Brock you should probably "just go home and google this."
