KFC is open Christmas Day if you'd rather skip the roast for wings - is your local on the list?

Not me already thinking about leftovers on Boxing Day... YUM!

While most of us have our Christmas feast game plan on point, there's always that chance of a last-minute kitchen disaster – side-eyeing you, mum.

Or maybe you're just gunning for the ultimate convenience, aiming to dodge the whole cooking ordeal altogether! No judgment here, we all want that extra time with our loved ones.

Well, now there’s no need to stress about a backup plan because Santa, ahem, the Colonel, has pulled through, and KFC will be dishing out their fried chook all day.

Selected KFC stores will be open on December 25, with special holiday hours to suss you and your crew out with their 11 secret herbs and spices.

From 10 am to 8 pm, you can roll through the drive-thru or strut into the store to snag your chicken fix.

Here's where you can get your fried fix this Xmas:

UPPER NORTH ISLAND

  • Whangarei

AUCKLAND

  • Albany
  • New Lynn
  • Lincoln Road
  • Quay Street
  • Botany Downs
  • Mangere Central

And if you're questioning a fried feast on Christmas Eve, Boxing Day, or New Year's Eve, why not roll with all three? All KFC NZ stores are business as usual.

So, what's your pick? I get it's the season of giving, but I'm seriously eyeing up a bucket of wicked wings to keep all to myself this Christmas.
