EXCLUSIVE: Data shows assaults at KFCs nearly every day in England and Wales Most violent branch of the chain has been revealed as in Brixton, south London
KFC fast food restaurants in England and Wales were the scene of a violent assault nearly every day of the year in 2022, new police crime logs reveal.
Staff at the fried chicken takeaway joints face year-round aggression from angry and irate customers, and have to deal with punch-ups breaking out between diners.
Now, new police data has revealed the most violent KFC branch is the one in Brixton, south London.
The data gives details of incidents including employees being pelted with their own chicken by angry diners and one terrifying moment where staff had to barricade the doors from a mob of rampaging youths.
Fights have started inside the restaurants that have seen customers kicking and punching one another, with some disputes carrying on inside after being triggered by a car parking row outside.
The survey, carried out by freebets.com, uncovered a total of 297 assault incidents logged last year by police at KFC restaurants in England and Wales.
However, as 10 of the 44 police forces were unable to provide data the true total could be even higher.
London logged a total of 37 punch-ups at KFCs last year, with the most being recorded at the branch in Brixton Road, south London.
Videos shows how this chicken shop was the scene of chaotic fight when a woman in hair rollers chucked a wet floor cone over the counter at a worker before attempting to grab her.
The footage of the KFC in Brixton, shot in July 2019, shows the evening dispute between the two women escalate into a full-blown fight.

Could you imagine this article from an American media outlet, lol?
We need the same over here. Where KFC, MacDonalds and other fast food places get rated for violence.
Hmmmm … is there a link between fried chicken and crime? How about watermelon? I think I’m going to get a grant from the guberment to study it.
Number 1 is Brixton where they had black riots several times in the 80s.
Well surmised.
I wonder also, but hold more than suspicion as impenitence as such.
Must. Not. Comment.
Engaging. Emergency. Self. Censorship.
Call me naive, but the secret seasonings are not such a secret mystery as they were in the Colonel’s day.
I don’t get it. What’s to fight over?
;-)
I want to know the most dangerous Popeye’s and Chuck E Cheese in the US.
Don't forget that this is Brixton, UK:
Popeye’s - probably somewhere in central Atlanta
Chuck E Cheese - probably Oakland
I wouldn’t bet against you.
Hmmm... muslims?
*migrants*?
2 A.M. Waffle House or IHOP
You may be on to something here: Perhaps the secret combination of salt, pepper, paprika, ginger, and oregano triggers behavior in humans normally only seen in wild animals?
Stands to reason...
Customers must be soccer fans.
Eight assaults over two years? Any Waffle House worth its grease will see that in an average month.
