I had a great experience again here yesterday so i have increased the 3 star previous review by 1 star... Food was hot and of fair size and the staff on duty were friendly and professional... Keep up the good work guys, thank you for a great visit ------ previous feedback ---------- I used this kfc regularly in the past and always a great service previously... I feel charging customers 30p for a sweet chilli dip after they spend £14 on a bucket is disheartening... and very cheapskate. Dips should be free within reason on buckets especially larger ones. Yes the food was hot and fresh, but there was some confusion over a £5 kfc cash voucher from the rewards in the kfc app. It showed up on my phone as a voucher and the expiry date on the app but it wasn't on the till when I went to check out. As they had already prepared the order while I was trying to sort the voucher problem out, I resigned to just paying the full price and I was left scratching my head about why the voucher didn't work this visit. But after all the messing about and recieving my food bag I was asked if I wanted sauces and I asked for a sweet chilli. "Them are 30p extra" I was told..☹️ not pleased that this restaurant didn't comp a single sauce after a big mess up with the app that even the manager couldn't solve or explain.. just told me I'll have to go through customer services to fix it. The server on the receipt says maria but that might have been someone elses logon Either way she was professional and helpful but couldn't solve the app problem. she called the manager but he just said someone else might have used it even though it was right there on the phone screen in front of him and he reloaded the screen so he could see it was current !! After he told me the dip was 30p and I said if I have to pay don't worry about it .... he then proceeded to tell me (condescendingly) when kfc tell him to make them free he will give them away for free.. and I should leave a comment to this fact in my review.... Wish granted !! Not pleased today... I didn't feel like I usually do when visiting this kfc... I've left numerous 5 star reviews on the kfc survey for the staff including some managers in the past, but today's visit really missed the mark for me... Not an overall great experience because of the app mess up, the 30p sauce after i'd already finalized and paid my bill and stepped away from the queue topped off with the managers inability to solve the issue and the condescending attitude. 🤨

EDIT: Returned here as this is one of my local KFCs, unfortunately this time the visit wasn't as great, some of the chicken strips felt like they needed an extra minute in the fryer. Removed one star for that reason, but will update on my next visit. FYI I've noticed this across multiple KFCs, it isn't just here, maybe they need an extra minute overall. Service was great, the girl at the till was friendly and even advised etc which is always good, too many times it's "whatever you like". Pleasing to see. PREVIOUS: Great tasting food and quality almost every time. The only niggle I have is that the tables can be left messy for a while and require cleaning up more frequently. I have cleaned up a few times myself (not much) but I'd rather it be ready to sit and eat. Staff does seem to prioritise the drive-thru more but I think that's down to being short staffed too. Toilets are valuable and usually in good condition.

Now this is how a KFC should be ran! It's utterly crazy to think that this franchise isn't even Birmingham's flagship store - it's a mere retail park joint. Somewhere to have a bite when you're doing the weekly shopping. Yet this easily outclasses the affront that is Hull's Jameson Street chain. The team are co-ordinated and clean, unlike the white-stained, creased uniforms at the aforementioned store, food was delivered promptly, and cooked thoroughly. The seating is comfortable and well-maintained, as opposed to the hard, filthy seating that's in other KFC franchises, and there's no rubbish to speak of. Whenever I'm in Birmingham again, this store will get my commerce every time.

Unhappy with the customer service provided by Shahid who was working on the drive thru checkout. He wasn't professional and didn't say please or thankyou, he had absolutely no customer service skills and certainly no smile. You need to put the right people on the checkout or drive thru. Due to my experience yesterday I will not to returning to this branch and go to a different one. They just threw the order into the bag, as you can see the fries were out of their packs and in the bag all seperated. See photos...
