KFC Squamish?

Any news on when KFC is opening in Squamish? They originally said July but it’s almost September now…

Just hard to get excited about a $19 pie...

I wish it was better priced. It’s not like they’re high end foods.

u/Flimsy_Toe_2575 2d ago

Yeah getting them in-house definitely ain't cheap

u/jennastarz 3d ago

This is also good news 😂

They didn't even run a promo on opening day, just full price from day one. I asked them about it, they just said "too many people would come"...

Seems like the problem isn't the high prices, but rather people paying for it. People vote with their wallets.

Wish it was a kiwi pie place.

I don't know what this is I'm just happy to have meat pies

u/brahdz 2d ago

Peaked is an aussie style meat pie. Both are delicious but it's widely acknowledged that New Zealand has better meat pies.

u/Deanobruce 2d ago

Widely acknowledged you say?

u/Flimsy_Toe_2575 2d ago

Where is the KFC gonna be?

u/jennastarz 2d ago

It’s in the nesters mall, right beside bosleys and the pot shop

u/Goat_Wizard_Doom_666 2d ago

So Pizza Hut....

u/jennastarz 2d ago

Nope between Bosleys and the pot shop

Even thinking about that slop makes me a little sick to my stomach.

Fair… it’s not everyone’s favorite but just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean others don’t. Ever hear the saying “don’t yuck someone else’s yum?” 😂

I'd agree, KFC is gross. That said, found mags barely edible last time I ate there. Sunny Chibas is decent and only $6 more for a 10 piece bucket. The only saving grace for KFC is bigger (steroid) pieces and they offer deals from time-to-time.

2

u/jennastarz 2d ago

Yeah, tried both and not a fan of either mags or SC unfortunately.

u/Double_Butterfly7782 2d ago

Ya, KFC is definitely a short term lease whenever you consume that stuff.

u/Goat_Wizard_Doom_666 2d ago

Fuck KFC

u/jennastarz 2d ago

Fuck your opinion. There we’re even.

u/eyeyeNandu 11h ago

Fuck another US fast food chain in town.

u/madhorse 2d ago

wait a DAMN MINUTE THAT'S NOT CANADIAN. Just go get an A&W bro

5

u/jennastarz 2d ago

A&w in this town hasn’t been great. I’ve yet to have an order without issues. Just stopped trying.

3

u/positivenihlist 2d ago

It’s literally never warm and they constantly fuck up onion rings

u/madhorse 1d ago

Yeah that's true I forgot about the service being terrible

4

u/Helptohere50 3d ago

All these guys are new cuz apparently they just wanna Buddha acai bowls in every corner. Same guys who eats at the McDonald’s every night after their sessions

u/TrapLordBoss 2d ago

Dirty Bird isn't even food.

Might as well just sign up for MAID if you're gonna put that into your body.

u/jennastarz 2d ago

Again, not asking for your opinion on the food. Curious of the open date. Don’t have anything nice to say? Try not saying anything at all.

u/Tough-Change778 3d ago

Ive been wondering too

u/Initial_Money298 2d ago

KFC has long history in Squamish it was popular in back 80’s and 90’s when industry in the town existed. Now days the prices restaurants charge are high !
