KFC Menu Prices at a Glance
KFC has two price levels. Order a sandwich and drink from the main board and you pay about what any chicken chain charges. Order a Box Feast or use the app and the same chicken costs less. Knowing that gap is the easiest way to spend less.
The prices below are national in-store figures checked in November 2026. Because almost every US KFC is franchised, one bucket can cost $2 to $3 more in California than in Alabama. Delivery apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats usually add 25 to 35 percent, so they are not the menu price.
KFC Deals and Value Menu
Box Feasts replaced the old Fill Up boxes and carry most of KFC's value menu. Each is a full meal in one box, rising in $2 steps as the chicken portion grows.
| Deal | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| $7 Box Feast | $7.00 | Chicken, a side, a biscuit and a cookie in one box |
| $9 Box Feast | $9.00 | More chicken plus side, biscuit and cookie |
| $11 Box Feast | $11.00 | Largest box, chicken plus two sides and a biscuit |
| Taste of KFC 2 pc Deal | $5.00 | Two pieces of dark meat chicken, a side and a biscuit |
| Taste of KFC 4 pc Deal | $10.00 | Four pieces of dark meat chicken, a side and a biscuit |
| Famous Bowl | $5.00 | Mashed potatoes, corn, popcorn chicken, gravy and cheese |
| KFC Snacker | $3.00 | Small chicken sandwich, single item |
| Chicken Little | $2.79 | Chicken filet on a small bun with pickles and mayo |
| Fill Up Box | $19.99 | Family box, chicken with two large sides and biscuits |
Two more ways to save: the KFC app has offers that never appear on the in-store board, and KFC Rewards points convert into free sides, drinks and eventually chicken. Many franchises also run a fixed weekday bucket deal, so ask at the counter.
KFC Bucket Prices
A bucket is chicken only. If you want sides and biscuits too, the meal version in the next section is cheaper than buying them separately. Buckets come in Original Recipe, Extra Crispy or mixed at the same price.
| Bucket (chicken only) | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 8 pc. Chicken Bucket | $21.99 | 950 to 2450 |
| 12 pc. Chicken Bucket | $29.99 | 1320 to 3650 |
| 16 pc. Chicken Bucket | $34.99 | 1950 to 4800 |
| 8 pc. Tenders Bucket | $18.99 | 1040 to 1600 |
| 12 pc. Tenders Bucket | $24.99 | 1560 to 2400 |
| 20 pc. Nuggets Bucket | $12.99 | 800 |
| 50 pc. Nuggets Bucket | $34.99 | 2150 to 2970 |
Good to know: the calorie range is wide because it depends on the pieces you get. An Original Recipe drumstick is about 130 calories, while an Extra Crispy breast is about 530.
KFC Family Meals
Family meals are KFC's best price per person. The 8 piece meal at $29.99 feeds four adults, roughly $7.50 each, while the same food bought separately costs closer to $37.
| Family Meal | Price | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| 8 pc. Chicken Meal | $29.99 | 8 pieces, 2 large sides, 4 biscuits |
| 12 pc. Chicken Meal | $39.99 | 12 pieces, 3 large sides, 6 biscuits |
| 16 pc. Chicken Meal | $47.99 | 16 pieces, 4 large sides, 8 biscuits |
| 8 pc. Tenders Family Meal | $27.99 | 8 tenders, 2 large sides, 4 biscuits, sauces |
| 6 pc. Chicken plus 12 pc. Nuggets | $27.99 | Mixed family box with 2 large sides and biscuits |
| Fill Up Box | $19.99 | Chicken, 2 large sides, biscuits, smaller family box |
| 40 pc. Saucy Nuggets Party Pack | $24.99 | 40 nuggets tossed in your choice of sauce |
KFC Chicken Combos
A combo is bone-in chicken with one individual side, a biscuit and a medium drink. It costs about $1.50 less than ordering the items separately, which makes it a good pick for one person.
| Combo | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 2 pc. Chicken Combo | $8.89 | 480 to 1490 |
| 3 pc. Chicken Combo | $11.19 | 630 to 2020 |
| 4 pc. Chicken Combo | $12.99 | 760 to 1990 |
| 2 pc. Chicken (no side or drink) | $5.49 | 260 to 1060 |
| 3 pc. Chicken (no side or drink) | $7.49 | 390 to 1590 |
Dark meat is cheaper and lighter per piece. Two Original Recipe drumsticks come to about 260 calories, while one Extra Crispy breast is more than double that.
KFC Chicken Calories by Piece
This is the table most people search for. Figures are for one piece with skin and breading.
| Piece | Original Recipe | Extra Crispy | Kentucky Grilled |
|---|---|---|---|
| Drumstick | 130 cal | 170 cal | 80 cal |
| Wing | 130 cal | 180 cal | 70 cal |
| Thigh | 280 cal | 340 cal | 150 cal |
| Breast | 390 cal | 530 cal | 210 cal |
Kentucky Grilled Chicken is the low-calorie choice, cutting a breast from 390 to about 210 calories. Not every restaurant stocks it and it often sells out in the evening, so call ahead for group orders.
KFC Tenders Menu and Prices
Tenders are whole-muscle chicken strips, so they cost more per piece than nuggets. Dipping sauce is included, and most restaurants will toss your tenders in a sauce at no extra charge.
| Tenders | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 2 pc. Tenders | $4.99 | 260 |
| 3 pc. Tenders | $6.49 | 390 |
| 5 pc. Tenders | $9.49 | 650 |
| 8 pc. Tenders | $13.99 | 1040 |
| 12 pc. Tenders | $19.99 | 1560 |
| 3 pc. Tenders Combo | $8.69 | 820 to 1440 |
| 4 pc. Tenders Combo | $10.49 | 1030 to 1740 |
| 5 pc. Tenders Combo | $12.19 | 1200 to 1910 |
| 3 pc. Nashville Hot Tenders Combo | $9.69 | 1050 to 1650 |
| 4 pc. Nashville Hot Tenders Combo | $11.99 | 1400 to 1950 |
KFC Nuggets and Saucy Nuggets
A plain nugget is about 40 calories. Saucy Nuggets are tossed in your chosen sauce instead of served with a dip, adding roughly 45 to 130 calories depending on the flavor.
| Nuggets | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 8 pc. Nuggets | $5.99 | 320 |
| 12 pc. Nuggets | $8.49 | 480 |
| 20 pc. Nuggets | $12.99 | 800 |
| 50 pc. Nuggets | $34.99 | 2150 to 2970 |
| 8 pc. Saucy Nuggets Combo | $9.00 | 820 to 1220 |
| 10 pc. Saucy Nuggets Combo | $9.99 | 900 to 1330 |
| 12 pc. Saucy Nuggets Combo | $10.50 | 970 to 1475 |
| 40 pc. Saucy Nuggets Party Pack | $24.99 | 1400 to 2150 |
KFC Chicken Sandwiches and Chicken Littles
The KFC Chicken Sandwich is a thick breaded filet on a brioche-style bun with pickles and mayo. The Spicy version uses a spicy sauce rather than a hot breading, so the heat is mild. Chicken Littles are the mini version and the cheapest hot sandwich on the board.
| Sandwich | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| Classic Chicken Sandwich | $5.49 | 620 |
| Spicy Chicken Sandwich | $5.49 | 650 |
| Saucy Chicken Sandwich | $5.49 | 590 to 670 |
| Chicken Sandwich Combo | $8.49 | 1000 to 1400 |
| Chicken Little | $2.79 | 350 |
| 2 Chicken Littles | $5.29 | 700 |
| Chicken Little Combo | $7.99 | 750 to 1350 |
| KFC Snacker | $3.00 | 360 to 420 |
KFC Famous Bowl and Other Bowls
The Famous Bowl is the best calories-per-dollar order at KFC. It layers mashed potatoes, sweet corn, popcorn chicken, gravy and a three-cheese blend.
| Bowl | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| Famous Bowl | $5.00 | 590 |
| Famous Bowl Combo | $6.99 | 590 to 880 |
| Nashville Hot Famous Bowl | $5.00 | 680 |
| Nashville Hot Famous Bowl Combo | $6.99 | 680 to 1170 |
| Mac and Cheese Bowl | $5.00 | 520 |
| Mac and Cheese Bowl with Chicken | $6.49 | 720 |
KFC Wings
KFC wings are bone-in and come plain or tossed in sauce. Sauce goes on after frying, so the coating stays crisp a little longer. They are sold in fixed counts.
| Wings | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 6 pc. Wings | $6.99 | 560 to 760 |
| 8 pc. Wings | $8.99 | 750 to 1010 |
| 12 pc. Wings | $12.99 | 1120 to 1520 |
| 24 pc. Wings | $23.99 | 2240 to 3040 |
| 6 pc. Wings Combo | $9.99 | 880 to 1400 |
KFC Sides Menu and Prices
Individual sides are single-serve cups. Large sides feed three to four people. Two individuals cost more than one large, so go large if you are sharing.
| Side | Individual | Large | Calories ind / large |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mashed Potatoes with Gravy | $2.99 | $5.49 | 130 / 590 |
| Secret Recipe Fries | $2.99 | $5.49 | 320 / 760 |
| Mac and Cheese | $3.29 | $5.79 | 170 / 540 |
| Cole Slaw | $2.99 | $5.49 | 170 / 340 |

| Green Beans | $2.99 | $5.49 | 25 / 50 |
| Baked Beans | $2.99 | $5.49 | 190 / 380 |
| Mashed Potatoes without Gravy | $2.99 | $5.49 | 110 / 480 |
| Biscuits | Price | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Biscuit | $1.29 | 180 |
| 4 Biscuits | $3.99 | 720 |
| 6 Biscuits | $5.49 | 1080 |
| 12 Biscuits | $9.99 | 2160 |
Tip: green beans are the lightest item KFC sells at 25 calories, and they are included in meals and Box Feasts at no upcharge. Swapping fries for green beans in an 8 piece meal saves roughly 700 calories across the family.

Does KFC Serve Breakfast?
Almost no US KFC serves breakfast. Most open around 10:30am straight into the lunch menu. A few older franchises in Kentucky, Tennessee and parts of Georgia still sell biscuits and gravy, chicken biscuits or country ham biscuits, but that is a local decision, not a national menu.
A KFC breakfast menu you saw online is most likely from another country such as Malaysia, India or Australia. The nearest US option is a biscuit with honey at $1.29 once the store opens.
KFC Opening Hours
Hours differ by franchise, and drive-thrus often stay open later than dining rooms. These are typical US hours.
| Day | Dining Room | Drive Thru | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monday to Thursday | 10:30am to 10pm | 10:30am to 11pm | Standard hours |
| Friday | 10:30am to 11pm | 10:30am to midnight | Busiest evening |
| Saturday | 10:30am to 11pm | 10:30am to midnight | Extended weekend hours |
| Sunday | 10:30am to 10pm | 10:30am to 10:30pm | Some close earlier |
Most locations close on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day and run reduced hours on Easter Sunday and New Year's Day. Airport, travel plaza and Taco Bell combo stores set their own hours.

How to Save at KFC
- Pick a Box Feast over a combo: a $9 Box Feast has more food than the $8.89 two piece combo, plus a cookie.
- Choose large sides when two or more people eat: two individual mac and cheese cost $6.58, one large is $5.79.
- Order dark meat when paying by the piece.
- Use the app first for Rewards points, free side codes and delivery offers.
- Skip delivery apps for pickup orders; the markup can reach 30 percent.
- For groups, the 12 piece meal at $39.99 beats two 8 piece buckets at $43.98 and adds three large sides.
KFC Nutrition Notes
Sodium is KFC's biggest watch-out. One Extra Crispy breast has about 1,190mg, over half the daily guideline, and gravy adds more. Kentucky Grilled Chicken and green beans move the numbers most.
The lightest full meal is a two piece dark meat Taste of KFC deal with green beans and no biscuit, around 350 calories. The heaviest single order, a large mac and cheese with an Extra Crispy breast and a large soda, passes 1,400. Fried items are not vegetarian, and the beans, mashed potatoes and gravy contain animal-derived ingredients, so the reliably vegetarian items are corn, green beans and the biscuit.
