KFC opens first ever pub with fried chicken available to order to table during World Cup games

KFC has announced the opening of its first ever pub which will be screening the live World Cup matches. Customers can enjoy a beer during the football while also getting some fried chicken delivered straight to their table.

The fast food chain's latest venture, 'The Colonel's Arms' is being advertised as a traditional British pub which promises an unmatched football viewing experience for eager football fans as the World Cup commences, the Mirror reports.

Inside the quirky new London establishment, there will be Colonel approved beer, a football table and a specially designed KFC delivery bell which customers ring to have fresh chicken and gravy delivered to their table while they watch the games on the big screens.

The pub, on Fulham Palace Road in Hammersmith, London, will be open exclusively for one week only from November 25 to December 1 for walk-ins and tickets will be available to buy in advance on EventBrite.

KFC has even developed Colonel's Arms Bar Kit's for people who would rather enjoy the experience at home, with a goodie box made up of a limited-edition pint glass, two coasters, a bar mat and a bottle opener.

The kit will be available to buy nationwide on the KFC Merch Store from November 25 with delivery also being available in most areas.

Since then, his secret Original Recipe chicken made up of 11 herbs and spices has become a global phenomenon with over 900 restaurants across the UK and Ireland alone.

In July 2019, KFC signed up to the Better Chicken Commitment which is a set of six criteria that have been composed to improve the lives of all chickens within the KFC supply chain by 2026.

Since the KFC Foundation was launched in 2015, they have paid out grants of up to £6 million to their charity partners which are passionate about developing and nurturing young people across the country.
