Menu & Specialties

Our menu is built around two main pillars: bone-in chicken and our legendary boneless offerings. Guests rave about our Boneless Buckets, which are packed with 100% white-meat chicken strips, perfect for dipping. Pair them with a Large Fry, perfectly crisp and seasoned, and a container of our rich, smooth Large Gravy—a combination that keeps our regulars coming back. Whether you're a fan of spicy or classic flavors, we have something to hit the spot. We take pride in the variety we offer, ensuring that every visit can be a new flavor adventure or a comforting return to your tried-and-true favorites.

The foundation of our kitchen is the Original Recipe chicken, a timeless classic that never goes out of style. Each piece is marinated, hand-breaded with that secret blend of 11 herbs and spices, and then pressure-fried to lock in juiciness while delivering a signature crispy skin. For those who prefer a boneless option, our Chicken Tenders are a top seller. They are crafted from all-white meat chicken, tender and moist on the inside, with a perfectly seasoned, golden-brown breading on the outside. Don't overlook our Popcorn Chicken, either—these bite-sized morsels are ideal for snacking, sharing, or adding to a larger meal for an extra crunch.

Completing the meal are our Classic Sides, each playing a crucial role in the KFC experience. Our Secret Recipe Fries are a fan favorite, with a unique coating that keeps them crispy longer. The creamy Mashed Potatoes, famously paired with our savory Gravy, create a warm and comforting side dish. Other popular choices include the buttery Corn on the Cob, the tangy and crisp Coleslaw, and the rich Mac & Cheese. And no meal is complete without a Hot Biscuit, baked fresh throughout the day and ready to be slathered with butter or used to soak up every last bit of gravy.

Our Commitment to Freshness and Quality

At our Airdrie location, freshness is not just a buzzword—it's our operating principle. Our team members arrive early each day to begin preparing the chicken, sides, and biscuits that we're famous for. The chicken is hand-breaded in small batches throughout the day to ensure that what you receive has been freshly prepared, never sitting under a heat lamp for an extended period. This commitment extends to our sides as well. The mashed potatoes are made from real potatoes, the gravy is mixed from scratch, and our biscuits are baked multiple times a day to guarantee that warm, fluffy texture you crave.

We understand that quality control is essential for a consistent experience. Our kitchen follows strict procedures for temperature checks, holding times, and ingredient storage. The cooking oil is filtered and changed regularly to maintain that clean, crispy taste without any off-flavors. We source our chicken from trusted suppliers who meet the high standards set by KFC Canada, ensuring every piece is plump, juicy, and free from unwanted additives. From the first bite of a drumstick to the last crumb of a biscuit, we want you to taste the care and dedication that goes into every item we serve.
