A well-known fast food chain has confirmed it will keep several of its restaurants open on 25 December. Many will be available for dine-in or drive-thru, catering to tired Christmas travellers or those seeking an alternative to traditional festive grub.
KFC has announced that 90 of its outlets will welcome the public on Christmas Day. With over 1,000 KFC branches in the UK, it's advised to check the opening hours of your local branch as most will remain closed.
Earlier this month, the fried chicken giant unveiled its festive menu, featuring two versions of their Stuffing Burger. The Stuffing Tower and Stuffing Stacker both include their original recipe fried chicken fillets, sage and onion stuffing, cheese and a spicy cranberry sauce.
KFC stated: "Santa may be snoozing on Christmas Day, but some of our team members are still cooking so you can get your chicken fix. To avoid disappointment, visit our Find a KFC page to see each restaurant's seasonal opening hours."
These branches will be open for drive-thru and dine-in, but not for deliveries.
The company clarified: "Our fryers will be turned off on Christmas Day, so KFC Delivery will be unavailable. KFC Delivery, Uber Eats & Just Eat will be delivering on Christmas Eve and Boxing Day as usual."
Many KFC branches will also be open on Christmas Eve and Boxing Day, though once again the chain recommends customers check their local branch's seasonal opening hours.
