KFC Southport - Eastbank Street

Right, so you're after some fried chicken in town? The KFC on Eastbank Street is your spot. It's got a 3.6-star rating from 859 Google reviews, so it's not exactly fine dining, but you know what you're getting. Buckets of chicken, fries, the usual KFC stuff. It's cheap as chips, which is always a bonus.

It’s dead easy for families because, well, who doesn't like chicken and chips? Couples might find it a bit loud and hectic, especially on a Friday or Saturday night when it's open till 10pm. Weekdays it shuts at 9pm, and it opens at 11am every day.

They do the job if you need a quick bite and don't want to break the bank. It’s in the centre of Southport, so handy if you're doing some shopping. I wouldn't say it's a place you'd book, just rock up.

Worth knowing: it can get pretty busy at teatime, especially with kids after school, so maybe go a bit earlier or later to avoid the rush.
