Their actual chicken nuggets are better than Chick-Fil-A.

Bigger too. And 100 % chicken breast.

Now their service, well ... that's probably why they are closing.

30 yrs ago they had OK chicken and friendlier service than, "It'll be 20 min for da spicy" The one in Jennings has only been open for a few years and it hasn't been busy since the first month it was open.

there has been a lack of KFC locations in La for a while now. Covington/Mandeville hasn't had one for years. I do get nostalgic for the Original recipe and the coleslaw every once in a while. When I was growing up in the 70s it actually came in a bucket-but even then no location in Covington, had to import from Hammond.

Never cared for KFC, but the pot pie is good.

There are more than 6 KFCs in that area, there’s a new on in Lafayette off of Kaliste Saloom that isn’t closed according to the article.

ETA: I wish that one would close and would convert to a Popeyes

The location in Kenner will give it to you in a bucket.

A lot of people hate on KFC Original. I think it's because they think it is greasy. But that moisture is no oil. It's tender because it's pressue fried.

Original has less fat than the crispy.

The pot pie is good, nuggets are as well. I like the original recipe every now and then.

Except for the cole slaw the sides are horrid.

I always said that Popeyes needs to buy that KFC and open another Popeyes there. Maybe they will now. It is a brand new building dang near. Never a line at KFC, but the line is around the block at Popeyes.

Close down every single Louisiana fast food store if you think service is what's pushing them out.

KFC's are jam packed here in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, also in Indonesia- super packed. I knew the original franchise owner in Jakarta and he made a mint when he sold out- billions! Now he follows his son on the Formula 2 circuit.

They have Popeyes here in UAE, but most people prefer KFC. The biscuits I love and they are quality here.
