KFC Lancaster - Penny Street

You know that moment when you're stumbling down Penny Street at 2am on a Saturday night and suddenly realise you're absolutely starving? That's when this place becomes your unlikely saviour. Yes, it's just KFC, but it's KFC that actually stays open when the rest of Lancaster has given up for the night. The chicken's what you'd expect - sometimes crispy, sometimes not, always salty enough to make you question your life choices the next morning. But honestly, when you're this close to the Castle and everything decent has shut, you're not exactly spoilt for choice. The staff deserve medals for dealing with the Friday and Saturday night chaos, and the chips hit differently when you're properly peckish. It's not winning any awards, but it does exactly what it says on the tin.
