Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) has been found to have breached hygiene regulations in one of Britains most popular branches.

The company said it admitted to not having proper pest control at it’s branch in Leicester Square, London, while attending a hearing at City of Westminster Magistrates’ Court, in central London.

Environmental health officers from the City of Westminster Council said cockroaches, rodents and flying insects were found during a routine inspection of the property located at Coventry Street back in 2008.

KFC said it also admitted failing to provide hygienic facilities for handwashing and failing to keep the restaurant clean and in good order during Thursday’s hearing.

The firm, based in Woking, Surrey, also admitted poor design and construction of the premises resulting in inadequate food hygiene practices.

After the hearing, KFC spokeswoman Nina Arnott said: “These charges date back to August 2008 and, as soon as we were made aware of the results of the inspection, we took immediate action to bring the restaurant back up to our strict hygiene standards.

“A new manager has been installed and the restaurant has performed well on recent EHO (environmental health officer) inspections.

“It has just undergone a complete renovation and we are closely monitoring to ensure that our high standards are maintained.”

KFC will be back before the court later this year.
