KFC has re-opened one Portsmouth restaurant for delivery only - here's how to order

The fast food giant shut all of its branches across the city last month following the coronavirus outbreak.

However KFC has announced it has re-opened 11 of its restaurants across the country for delivery only – with a limited menu.

This includes the branch at the Pompey Centre in Fratton Way.

KFC is also donating thousands of meals to NHS workers.

A spokeswoman for the fast food giant said: ‘Over the last week, we’ve reopened 11 of our restaurants in the UK. They’re open for delivery only and are serving a limited menu, operated by fewer team members with new procedures in place to help ensure we’re following social distancing guidelines.

‘There’s still a need for affordable, accessible food at this time - so we want to do our part.

‘We’ve also donated thousands of meals from all our open restaurants to those on the frontline, including the NHS and key workers, in partnership with Deliveroo, and will continue to do so each week whilst the situation continues.’

Supermarket opening hours and restrictions in place

KFC is also re-opening restaurants in Heaton Chapel, Tamworth, New Oscott, Manchester Hulme, Aldershot, Ipswich - Cardinal Park, Glasgow - Pollokshaws Road, Glasgow - Great Western Retail Park, Enfield - Coliseum Retail Park and Manchester – Deansgate.

The chain is also looking at additional restaurants to open over the next few weeks, however the company says that if they can’t do it responsibly, they won’t do it at all.

Portsmouth residents will be able to place orders with the KFC in Fratton with the Deliveroo and Just Eat apps.
