The Colonel is not just any old fried chicken provider. His secret recipe is adored by millions worldwide.Anything is better than an empty unit.

So in other words, take away only.It does feel like we are in a time warp.  We now have Iceland and Superdrug back again, so if KFC arrives we only need a Peacocks and it’ll be like The Oaks never closed!Personally I don’t think Acton needs more fried chicken, but I suspect it may threaten some of the other chains who may not be as good (not that I speak from experience).

"....... with a strong transient population."Well they've certainly got that right about Acton!

More junk food. Just what Acton needs.

They describe it as "Urban Small Box" which KFC explain is ..."Our smallest footprint yet, the Smallbox asset offers the best of both worlds, fitting into 1,000 sqft with a unique design while still offering customers a great experience. We look for units in high pedestrian area with a strong transient population."

KFC were here previously. Were on the left hand side of the entrance into the Oaks Shopping Centre.
