Speaking on the news, a KFC spokesperson said: “We’re constantly reviewing our portfolio of over 1,000 restaurants and at times, this sadly means we have to close some.
“We never want to disappoint our team and loyal fans, which is why we always try to relocate our team members to other restaurants, and our fans can always find their next nearest restaurant on our website.”
The KFC in Holbury was rated ‘very good’ by food hygiene inspectors on June 23 2022.
The closest branch of the fried chicken company is in Millbrook.
