Such a horrible place to go to- Staff is not at all helpful! And the food is always over cooked! Went there on Tuesday with a mobile pick up- after waiting an extremely long time 30 minutes wait time and then to find out they let someone else have my order- no verification nothing- $50 order - They would not make it again and then instead of offering a refund they said I would have to figure it out myself on the "Their "Mobile App- What!! Like it was my that they let somebody steal the food! So after three days and NO call backs from Corporate or Elgin KFC - I'm still wasting more of my time and out $50- Avoid this place at all cost!! read more

Great service. Friendly staff. There was an issue with my order but it was fixed promptly.

Service is HORRIBLE! Artitudes are equally HORRIBLE! For some reason they only work the window and do not like waiting on people inside. They ALWAYS run out of crispy chicken without letting you know if they even intend to make more. This place needs serious management or owner change and to hire people that want to help and feed people. Seriously. read more

We ordered fresh fish! The fish was hot but SO overcooked and GREASY! The hushpuppies were also greasy! I didnt get any crumbles so I went to counter and asked for some. The boy charged me $.27 for them and they were burnt also. This is the second time I have tried this KFC/ Long John Silvers. Take my advise don't even try this place! read more

Today, a coworker and I went to the Elgin, Texas KFC for lunch. I had the coupon sheet that comes in the mail, which I showed to the cashier. We ordered the 8-piece, 2 sides, and 4 biscuits and were going to use the coupon. When speaking with the cashier, she made it sound like that was the everyday price, so we placed our order. The cashier then charged us $32 which she had already put on the card. When I showed her the coupon, she went and got the General Manager, Christie Bell. Ms. Bell proceeded to inform me that I should have given the cashier the coupon first. I said fine, I will cancel the order. Ms. Bell said that all sales are final, and she could not do anything about it. She also said all the fast-food restaurants in Elgin are the same way. I assume Ms. Bell is following someone's orders. Is this what KFC has become? Google Elgin KFC and see their reviews. It is a shame that the franchise that Colonel Sanders started so many years ago has sunk to this. Oh well, I love me some Golden Chick!!!! I will think twice before going to KFC, especially the one in Elgin. Customer service is a thing of the past. read more

Waited 30 mins for a 3 pcs chicken box meal. It was sitting on the counter the whole time and they gave it to me cold. I couldn't go inside since it was locked. read more

I'll try not to be too hard on them because they said the cook never showed up and the food was from this morning I find it hard to believe that NO ONE ELSE knows how to drop some chicken; but anyway. I usually don't do reviews on fast food unless it's exceptional or terrible and folks need to be warned. Didn't feel like cooking so I came here since I had a coupon for a 5 pc meal and it's just me and my son. Y'all look what TF they gave me‍ this chicken is clearly OLD AF!! They didn't have white meat, which was fine I wasn't gonna wait anyway, and they only gave me one dry ass stale biscuit instead of 2 anyway, I'm glad I checked before I pulled off. I went back and asked how long for fresh chicken and they said they would be none due to no cook‍ so I got my money and coupon back and nowwwww I'm on my quest to find something to feed my huge man child without driving too far read more

Took them 25 minutes to give me my 8pc friend chicken bucket. The chicken wasn't they good either & it was super oily. A large family arrived after I did & they got their food 6 mins after ordering, there were 2 door dashers waiting for their food & asked an employee when their food would be ready, the employee said the food will be ready when it's ready. This is the 2nd time I go to this KFC, the 1st time I ordered a 3 piece tender & it took them a good 18 minutes to have them ready when there was literally no one in the store. Horrible KFC location, need to shut down or get new management read more

I came back to KFC in 18619 Highway 290 Elgin Texas 78621 . I was so grossed out by what I saw . I got my money back right away . Who knows how the back looks like and if it is even cleaned. This is what the new management does . NOTHING ! THIS PLACE NEEDS TO BE CLOSED DOWN. CAN WE CALL THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT ON THEM ? read more

The pictures tell the story. What you can't see is the attitude of the employees or manager. Not sure if they get inspected, but this is deplorable. The response from corporate was less than interested. Good luck eating here. read more

KFC - There is no way they really gave me a bowl of freaking GREASE WTF - Fast Food Near Me - Elgin, Texas

Came to this establishment and ordered a 1 PC chicken and 1 PC fish with 2 hush puppies and a side. I asked for extra hush puppies instead of the side of fries. See picture below of what I got. Instead of the side, I got 1 hush puppy. When I got to the window, I asked if I could add a 2 PC KFC chicken meal. A couple of minutes later, the cook (older Hispanic woman) began yelling in Spanish and threw the box of chicken on the counter. I asked the cashier if there was a problem and why did she throw the chicken. She replied, "well we don't like to add orders at the window so she's mad!" I left, got home and all the food was cold and the chicken was rubbery. read more

KFC - This is supposed to be a fish, chicken, 2 hush puppies and a side of hush puppies! - Fast Food Near Me - Elgin, Texas

The worst and everything is overcooked and not edible. Order is often incorrect in the drive thru. Steer clear of this place. I have tried it a few times and evertytime it is BAD! They will no longer get my money cuz I may as well through the money in the trash cuz that is what happens when I get my meals from this place. I called corporate office and they didn't call me back either. So no support and it won't get better!! read more

This is an a one off review. This is coming from someone who has frequent this place many times. If you really need fried chicken go literally anywhere else. I don't know how you mess up fried chicken at a chain restaurant but they managed to do that. Often serving the smallest and over fried pieces of chicken, stale biscuits, and yesterday sides. That's if you manage to get all the food that you ordered. If you go to this establishment prepared to go back to get things you're missing. Also be to wait an exceedingly long time for your food. It is not uncommon to have three or four cars waiting on food at the same time. As in they already paid and now they're waiting either in front of the store on the side of the store or by the window for their food. It baffles the mind that was a restaurant that pre-makes most of his food still can't get it to you on time. If you really love KFC or Long John Silver's find one the next town over. read more

Don't think they've changes the oil since pre-COVID. Chicken should be golden not brown and black. Left a greasy thick film in my mouth and on my teeth. Had the same experience last time but thought it was an anomaly. Guess I was wrong. Won't be going back. They frying the fish in the same oil? Maybe that's contributing to the fail as well! read more

If I could rate it a zero I would , employees are extremely rude , messed up my order and still want to be rude ? Unacceptable , if you don't like the job find another one, definitely going to be speaking with corporate and the city read more

In the beginning this place was great. Now I wouldn't go there. Management doesn't care about the food or service. Orders always missing something and don't have what you want past 7:30pm when they suppose to close at 10pm. read more

Last 4 times I visited there was a 45 minute wait for chicken. Found it odd 2 to 3 hours before closing and no chicken ready??? Also I asked the order taker about it and he replied you have to come before 5pm if you want ready chicken. This location closes at 10pm. Do your self a favor Save your time "45MINUTES" and money and go else where. read more

The worse dining experience I have ever had. The General Manager cursed a customer in the drive through. They shorted my order and said they didn't . It was a terrible experience. read more

Not sure how this place is open. Stand at the register for 15 min before you're acknowledged and then another 15 min wait for food. Skip it. Nobody's go time for that. read more

Sooooo KFC has been a special treat since I was a little girl. My Mom would take us and way back in the day you'd get a little box and desert and the chicken is always so good! We went to get my last KFC for a while as I was planning on going full vegetarian at the beginning of the year. We got a 6 piece original with Mashed potatoes and Mac n Cheese. Once we got home, I was so excited to indulge one last time. Boy how disappointing. The Mac n Cheese was watery and so were the potatoes. The gravy had been "stretched" by adding water til it was barely even brown. Then there was the chicken. The chicken was SOOOOOO DRY that the drumstick had nearly shriveled away til hardly anything was left on the bone. It was so bad, not even our dogs wanted the scraps. Really disappointing to go out that way, but I guess in a way it left such a bad taste in my mouth, we wont be back any time soon. read more

Plan your time wisely, make sure you have 20min+ to wait around on your food whether it's drive thru or inside with no one else around. Expect to check and check it twice as they are notorious for mistakes from witnessing multiple errors on the drive thru from missing drinks, giving orders to the wrong people or adding the wrong meal. read more

If I could gift this KFC a -5 I would. Pre-COVID they were slow and I'm talking 20 minutes average to process an order at the window, and I guess I should be happy that didn't change to be worst. I literally had time to write review while waiting for them to take my order. 80% of the time the prepare your order incorrectly, and 20% it's correct but they've given you chicken that has been sitting for far too long. If they weren't the cheapest the area I would go elsewhere. read more

Close to home, and in a pinch, we stopped in last week and picked up a Bucket of Bird and a couple of sides..Super Friendly. Food was fresh and hot..What else do you need?..We will be back, they always have a good deal going. read more

My cousin is allergic to coleslaw and asked if she could substitute the item for green beans. The female manager running the shift around 6:45 this afternoon ( Tuesday, June 30) would simply not substitute this item. Mind you, this was not a written policy, and when I asked for the policy on this topic, she never revealed it and persisted to tell me she could not do this. This is unprofessional when you tell a customer you are unwilling to do something if there is no written policy because it makes it seem like you are biased or lazy. My advice is to ensure you have the proper documentation to support your claim, or you could be leaning towards a lawsuit. The mission statement to KFC is to serve good food to ALL of their customers, this is a big fail for this specific location as this definitely did not happen today. read more

Mashed potatoes were runny and the gravy was watered down. The chicken was dripping with grease and almost burnt. Gross. Needless to say we won't be returning here ever read more

Delicious sandwich. I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich. It was way larger then I expected. Tender and juicy. The 2 fellows that waited on me were wonderfully friendly. read more

Worst customer service employe's walk and talk to you like they don't want to be here. Take forever with your order and always giving you the wrong order. I went in today one employee was not in dress code he was all dressed up thinking he is Rick Ross. Worst place need to be shut down read more

Very friendly workers here tonight. They said they were slow today (obviously because of the pandemic), so they had to start fresh fish and didn't want to give me the old fish from earlier. I had to wait a little but I understand that businesses are feeling the effects right now. Thanks for the extra fish just for waiting a little longer! read more

Screwed up a very simple order twice. How hard is it to identity a piece of chicken? I will not be giving any kfc my business.

Obviously you can't expect much, but holy crap you should expect more than what I just got. Tip for the manager on duty, when you have people waiting twenty five minutes for their one little order, you shouldn't walk around texting on your phone. Then when you finally hand them the food, at least find the courtesy to apologize for the wait. There is no way this lazy crew should ever make $15 per hour. You all should be ashamed of the level of laziness in this establishment. read more

The food at KFC is not bad, nor is it good...its cheap and fast...service most times is good/friendly. The staff at Valero are friendly and care about their store. Its near our home and convenient, so we go there often for gas and lotto. I go to the kfc when my wife works late lol read more

What a disappointment 20 minutes to wait for our food!! And my rice box was cold Took it back and had to wait another 10 minutes for that Only received when I went up to chase them up about it!! Totally under staffed for a tea time rush Will not be back read more

Tonight my family went to the LJSilv,ers and KFC in Elgin. We spent almost 100, to feed 8 people. We came with a 5 dollar coupon for a huge platter. they stated that they could not except the coupon on my smart phone, that it had to be printed (the coupon said that showing on a cell phone was ok) We asked for the manager and the lady that told us we couldn't use the coupon was the manager, a Ms Erica Muniz. We asked for the General Managers name and number and she informed us that she did not know the name or number of the General Manager (very smugly) When we arrived home we found that half of the items we ordered was not in the bags. We had to drive 10 miles back to the restaurant. When we arrived we showed the workers the receipt. We had circled all of the items that we didn't receive. They became belligerent, accusing us of not being honest. One girl said that she was positive that we received everything. The manager was our initial cashier, even though the receipt gave another name. When we returned the manager was gone. When I informed them that my spouse was on the phone with corporate, they asked us to leave and said they were closing 2.5 hours early because they were shorthanded. They did end up replacing the food once they realized my spouse was talking to corporate. Horrible, Hoorible service and attitudes. read more

*AVOID AVOID AVOID* Marjorie (older Spanish rude b*t*h) deserves a zero in worst ever customer service. This was THE WORST drive thru! I ordered from the Long John Silvers menu- The family Fish and chicken meal-asked for extra tarter for the hush puppies, she then had the nerve to ask "how much tarter do you need you only got three pieces of fish" Are you kidding me???? It should not matter what was on the order-if the customer asks for extra tarter then provide it without question! This is not the first time she has been EXTREMELY RUDE but It will be the last time I go back there. She should NOT be working in a public establishment serving rude attitude to valued customers. read more

Very disappointed in the service from this location , I went through the drive through at this location today at 7:20 pm. Was excited about having kfc chicken for dinner attempted to place an order for the family bucket for 8 pieces. Was told they did not have regular only crispy said they where out of regular and I could only have crispy. I asked if they where out as in they had no more at this location or if just the regular was not ready . Employee then came back to the intercom and said we have it it's just not cooked , I then asked about how long the wait would be before ready . I was then told 38 minutes until it would be ready . I then asked for a minute to look over minute and decide if I would get something else because of the wait or if I would wait for the chicken . Then the employee came back on the intercom and rudely asked so are you just going to wait there or you going to get the crispy or order the regular , I need to know so I can know if we need to make some . I then asked if I could speak to the manager and was told she was the manager she said her name was Samantha . I asked so you are not making any regular chicken until I place my order even though your out , this is the first time I heard of this at any of there locations . At this point the employee attitude and verbiage and elevated voice . Who seemed provoked by my request of regular chicken became uncomfortable. And I no longer wanted to place an order from them , I was unsure if some one would make my order special in the wrong way or the freshness of there food . I will not be returning to this location , thankfully golden chick is down the road where the staff are kind and food is always ready and hot . read more
