Reviews of KFC Colombo Street
s.
Went in the drive through, got home and found no potato in the potato and gravy. Tried ringing twice and no answer. One hour later my daughter went to KFC Colombo Street too. Her order was missing the fries. She tried ringing and as usual no answer. She finally went back in and was told to wait in her car. A staff member appeared in the doorway expecting her to get out of the car and go collect them. No apologies! Also, I’ve noticed KFC haven’t replied to any of the reviews on here. Sloppy work KFC and staff need training in customer service. We won’t be back!
W.
Normally good but this time I was in the drive through and had beggars hassling me for money. I told them and they said they had removed him before but now hes back. KFC may need to get better security
C.
No counter service the day we went. Chicken was pleasingly dry and free of oil. Chips had a bit of a greasy taste but otherwise sides were good. Online ordering to click and collect was confusing with no counter service but in the end they let me inside to pick up.
C.
The store is much nicer now that it has been remodelled. The self service kiosks are fast and easy but lack some of the customisations you can make at the counter (requesting specific pieces of chicken, adding cheese to a burger). The restaurant is possibly the cleanest KFC I’ve ever eaten at. The service is good but still feels like they’re a bit short staffed, the food was fresh, hot, and well seasoned!
S.
Sat 26th Feb at 7:40pm - Someone give the lad on drive through comms a raise! By far the best customer service I’ve received from a fast food joint in years.
L.
Top marks! Although very busy staff were polite and patient... Could do with maybe 1 more team member ??
A.
Great service, the trainee that served me did a good job, although halfway through eating my chicken , I found a hair coated in 11 herbs n spices stuck to a bit of chicken.
R.
I live around the corner, what a blessing that is. Great chicken every time!!
D.
Was good.. been a few times .. sometimes you get salt on chips ,sometimes you don't
G.
We went in to order but was a shambles no one serving behind counter there was a machine to order but needed a code but didn't tell you how to get it went through drive through that was good
B.
Depending on the time of day is wether this store is good or not. During the day the staff are friendly and not shy to fill the box with chips and the food is always fresh. At night the staff a rude and the food is normally dry or the wrong order. Food is food and you pay for what you get but it would be nice to get treated better.
j.
It's okay place,but not that fast service as it meant to be fastfood
J.
The Chip where amazing today and service fast...first KFC meal I would rate ,
J.
Easy ordering good customer service ✔
R.
Great kfc. Really nice and crispy chicken and quick service
s.
Good for take away fast food but not healthy
R.
Uber eats order instructions for chicken pieces was not carried out. I don't eat the red meat so couldn't eat it.
T.
We got the wicked box for $7.99. Great value for price four wicked wings, chips, bun, potato and gravy and small drink. Couldn't eat it all for lunch. Had the rest for dinner.
C.
My son's favorite place, we enjoyed it very much 😀
G.
Fairly average. If you know KFC in NZ you'll know what to expect.
Reasonably slow service for a fast food restaurant. If you're lucky you'll catch the staff on a good day and get friendly service. If not you'll basically be ignored except for someone taking your order with an extreme lack of enthusiasm
I.
The food is great. We are very satisfied
G.
Bit on the slow side for service at 1pm, at the counter . Drive thru got the best service. Guessing the checkout chick didn't want to be there. Not to friendly.
The food was of an edible standard but not what i envisaged. Potato and gravy rocked. Never changes.
E.
Great experience, lady at speaker could understand me clearly. Spectacular customer service. Everything correct in order didn't forget the napkins. Nice n fast ! Best service I've had from any kfc well done!!
R.
Double downs are back! Like most kfcs there's nothing fast about it but my meal was correct and ready in a timely fashion. Nothing wrong with some dirty bird
A.
The Maori manager there is "ALWAYS" super friendly and polite. Great service with a smile,...he would make a good personal trainer at a gym!
C.
This site if kfc okay not a lot of sitting but tidy and quite busy
S.
For some reason the chicken is always good here, its never greasy,can't say its always like that but its good to know they are there when we went them.

KFC IS KFC What can I say .
L.
Chicken appears dry....makes one wonder if they heat up from Day Before.
Service is inconsistent!
M.
Food was great, friendly staff, the automated ordering system is fantastic.
J.
Very clean compare to the other branches around christchurch and the indian lady at the front was very friendly. Most kfc that ive been around chch was not good on customer and they dont clean the table aswell. So this branch is a place to go if u want to eat kfc
C.
This site if kfc okay not a lot of sitting but tidy and quite busy
J.
Overall pretty average Rangiora KFC is better
M.
Yummy Alwayz have lovely chicken &fryz/Cheers!!!!!!!!

A.
Food was good. Service was ok but not great, no one on the counter and had to wait whilst staff appeared to look at each other to see who would serve. Cleanliness was poor. Rubbish on tables and floors. Food and drink splatter on table.
A.
Good friendly staff, fast handling, and tidy store
S.
Not to bad but a bit overcooked.
T.
The best KFC in Christchurch the chicken there is always consistently tender and not too Heavy. Who ever runs that place should run them all
L.

Service is inconsistent!
R.
Busy but effective service. Clean, neat and compliant with regulations. Food fresh, and well done. Best KFC I have been to in NZ.
R.
Very Very Very busy in drive through entered at 5.50 pm . Finally got served at 6.35pm. Felt sorry for the young lady that took our order She was very pleasant and polite. Although she mentioned they were short staffed.
z.
slow service, ok food
M.
Well they forgot my bread rolls! Was so looking forward to them. Boohoo. So after I eat my delicious zinger burger I will walk back and ask for my delicious rolls-hopefully they're nice enough to give me a free dessert.Lovely staff fresh food, just understaffed.off I go...
M.
This is an ok KFC. The KFC is tidy well presented and has good customer service.
I like the occasional KFC meal as an evening substitute. The meals are good and there is plenty of choice. There is a meal to suit any time of the day. Takeaway or eat in are both no problem. Located on Colombo Street there is adequate parking available.
T.
It's not too bad if only they could actually listen and add extra seasoning on chips when asked. Extra seasoning is the most important part of my KFC Fix.
M.
Food was great, friendly staff, the automated ordering system is fantastic.
S.
KFC delivery now exists!! We ordered and it arrived at our house within 10minutes. Great deals and coupons, however, last couple of times the batter was still a little doughy in parts.
H.
Fast drive thru, good product. Don't attempt to alter any menu items (e.g, no sauce in burger) as this will be missed. Otherwise, a good experience.
A.
It's more than 20 years since I last had OFC. Everything was just as good as I remembered, except the bean salad, where the percentage of sliced free beans was greater than I care for. I could live on the potato and gravy. (That may be a slight exaggeration.)
A.
Pretty average, chips over seasoned. Chicken drum was dry and oily. Ans the burger had a lot of browned lettuce in it
N.
Great place to go! We all enjoyed ourselves, location, service, restaurant atmosphere.
T.
Was very nice thanks
E.
Zinger tower burger combo was an absolute stunner
M.
It truly was 5 out if 5. Not a drip of oil or grease. And I loved sharing it with my mum 🤗 Thank you kfc..
S.
Doesn't taste like kfc
H.
Great service, food was great and who doesn't love KFC 🍗🍟🍔🌯🥤
L.
Not consistant. Too often dry and just warm both chicken and chips.
M.
So let me say, if you've had a hard night on the bend, getting twisted and whatnot by the time the sun rises you can feel your gut churn and start to scream for some greasy oil soaked chickeney goodness this is your go-to. Make sure you have another drink to see you through the 20 min drive-thru because if you're not already sober, the wait will definitely make you look in the rear view mirror and make you realise how bent you have been for the last 12 hours. That glimpse of yourself in the mirror will shock you into a 3 month rehab style of sobriety.
3/5 would get twisted and eat chicken again.
G.
KFC IS KFC What can I say .
B.
There was a dude called Chris who was working this Wednesday night and he made my day. Honestly, he was funny and bouncing around and it was great. Fast service with a smile is always appreciated :^)
a.
Waited 10 minutes to be served when they they were only making 2 orders and I was first in que.
I want to say understaffed but i counted 6 people so idk.... its a sunday too
W.
Lady on front counter yesterday was super nice and cheerful, made the experience very pleasant. Food was pretty average but you know what you go there for ngl 😵
E.
Fast friendly fried chicken and burgers from the Colonel always tasty feeds for under 10 bux even better when the double downs back in town mmm
P.
It's KFC, surely everyone knows what it's like... I personally think the quality of the food is what you should expect for the price, much of it is not very healthy and the service is woefully slow for what is supposed to be a fast food place.
A.
They were very busy in the drive through and there was a long line inside but the staff were very efficient and got our orders made up early quick
L.
I love KFC when the chicken isn't dry. I love the wicked wings. The one thing is I reckon that KFC smells way better than it tastes.
T.
Took way to long standing waiting to order asked for drum stick and guy said maybe when you can push drum stick on till 6 out of 8 wicked wings were front sad
B.
fast food, this is one of the best kfc restaurants I have been to
a.
Always forget things form our order.
S.
One of the best KFC in Christchurch. Off st parking. Service can be slow but worth the wait.
J.
Queue to be served. Only one till going. Order came, items missing, lucky I was in store. Would have been annoyed if I had drive through.
C.
Fresh and hot food and good service.
R.
Floor is greasy and slippery, puddles of soda in parts and all the tables have food scraps on them. Very unclean.
J.
Friendly staff and very considerate when they didn't get my order right, l live out of town and couldn't go back immediately so they gave me a 2 piece pack and chips for the inconvenience when l was next in town.
g.
Had a small lunch box with zinger burger yesterday, it was fantastic, chips were very crunchy and hot, staff is very friendly.
F.
I love this place. I've been coming here for over 20 years. Hot food hot. Good drink selection.
T.
I love their twister wraps and they had a special discount on the krusher ice cream drink.... so good!
K.
Food good but slow service .
j.
Well what can i say regarding this fast food .If u like kfc then this one is not the best .I found the chicken was over done the staff were not very welcoming. SO guys its not the best .
W.
One of the better quality KFCs in Chch.
J.
Exactly what you expect from KFC. Double Down was great.
Service always seems a little slow and disorganised at this branch however!
G.
Colombo St, Chch: Friendly staff, chicken not too oily, great chips. But wish the order number system worked.
W.
I find the staff very helpful here and have always had quality food. Thanks KFC Columbo.
T.
It was ok - service was fine, place was neat. Unfortunately food was not up to standard and the chips were truly awful.
s.
Me and my bb love this place
L.
Quick in the drive thru! Rare for a kfc so well done!
H.
Better than the rolleston one... clean & tidy even thou it was the lunch rush and the food was hot and fresh

Love the fry seasoning, and give me zinger burger any day and I'm a happy camper!

Good kfc. The food was good and the store was clean. Lots of parking out the front too

Clean enough but often Slow! Check your order if driving through
z.
It's kfc enough said, small restaurant usually has a longer line in the drive through than inside it
N.
They seem to do a really good job of their KFC compared to other outlets around the city
E.
This is my KFC of choice in ChCh, I go out of my way to use it. Service usually prompt, most staff courteous & friendly.
J.
Best kfc in the city, but still just kfc.
G.
I CANT REMEMBER IF IT WAS NISA OR SINA BUT THERE WAS A LOVELY LADY IN THE DRIVE THRU WHO MADE ME AND MY MATES NIGHT!
M.
Tasty chicken but when you order a piece quarter pack. You would expect 2 pieces of chicken as opposed to 1pc and 1wing
G.
Slowish service, and meal was down to KFCs usual standard.
H.
Hot fresh food, nice for a change.
A.
Food was ok not as greasy as KFC can be however received the wrong type of chicken which was annoying ..............
A.
Hot and Spicy was nice and fresh, shame about the plastic forks and straws still being used
R.
What you'd expect from a KFC, but I find myself checking I got the right food before leaving drive through
C.
Ridiculous waiting times in the drive thru, but most staff are friendly and the food was made to order.

Standard service from standard KFC staff so no issues
R.
Newly renovated and clean and tidy as per usual KFC outlets

Run out of chicken...15 mins wait!... left with chicken wings instead. Got home and missing paid for potatoe and gravy.

Great example of a KFC normally very fresh

Some challenges with the new drive through restrictions, in particular using eftpos
