KFC Hours & Breakfast
KFC hours vary by restaurant. Official location pages checked for this guide showed examples ranging from about 10 a.m. opening to 11 p.m., midnight or later closing. Use KFC’s location page for the selected restaurant rather than assuming one national schedule.
KFC does not currently have a standard nationwide U.S. breakfast menu. A new “Open House” test restaurant that opened in McKinney, Texas in late September 2026 is testing breakfast, specialty drinks and other new items; that test should not be treated as the regular KFC menu nationwide.
Nutrition & Allergen Information
KFC provides nutrition and allergen information for its U.S. menu. Calorie ranges in this guide reflect standard menu builds or the range published for a category; sauces, pieces, side choices, drinks and substitutions can materially change the final total.
KFC kitchens handle wheat, milk, egg, soy and other major allergens, and shared fryers or preparation areas can create cross-contact. Guests with food allergies should use KFC’s current official nutrition/allergen tools and confirm concerns with the restaurant before ordering.
