New KFC restaurant opening in Shrewsbury - here's when

Shrewsbury-based franchisee is running the chicken restaurant on new retail park in Meole Brace

Legendary chicken shop chain KFC is opening its latest new restaurant in Shrewsbury next week.

The site will launch on the new Hazledine Park in Meole Brace on Monday September 14.

Shrewsbury-based franchisee Gastronomy is running the new site which will also be the firm's 50th KFC restaurant opening after launching its first in Aberystwyth in 2007.

The drive-thru and dine-in restaurant will neighbour a new Starbucks which opened last Thursday.

Hazledine Park has been built on the former pitch-and-putt golf course close to Shrewsbury Town's stadium and is bounded by Oteley Road and Hazledine Way.

Other work on the site includes a single-storey building with self-contained retail units, one of which has been let to tanning salon chain Indigo Sun.

There are also 100 parking spaces.

Shrewsbury-based Morris Property carried out the development project on behalf of landlord Shropshire Council.
