If you want one KFC order that covers both classic fried chicken and crispy tenders, the KFC Chicken & Tenders Feast is the bundle to look at. It pairs 6 pieces of bone-in Original Recipe chicken with 6 hand-breaded Original Recipe tenders, plus 2 large sides and 3 dipping sauces, in one family-style box. It is still listed on the official KFC menu in 2026 as a family meal, so it is a current item, not a leftover holiday special. For broader menu context, start with the full KFC menu, then use this guide for what matters before you order: what is inside, the typical price, the full calorie picture, how it feeds 4 versus 6, and how it compares with the bigger 8+8 feast.

What Comes in the Chicken & Tenders Feast?
Every order of the feast includes the same four components:
- 6 pieces of KFC Original Recipe fried chicken (bone-in, a mix of cuts as the restaurant packs it)
- 6 Original Recipe tenders (boneless, hand-breaded)
- 2 large side dishes of your choice
- 3 dipping sauces of your choice
What is left out of the box matters just as much. There are no drinks and no biscuits. If you are comparing it with the 8-piece Chicken Only Bucket or the 8 pc. Chicken Meal, note those bundles often include biscuits, while this feast skips them entirely. That is worth knowing before you promise a full dinner to six hungry people.
KFC Chicken & Tenders Feast Price (2026)
The typical sampled price for the feast is $30.00. That figure comes from current U.S. menu listings and is consistent across multiple 2026 sources, but it is a typical price, not a national fixed price. KFC locations set their own menu prices, so your restaurant may charge a few dollars more or less. Prices on delivery apps run higher, as the next paragraph explains.
Per-person cost: the math competitors skip
Twelve protein pieces plus two large sides is a lot of food, so the feast stretches further than the “serves 3 to 4” line that most guides repeat. Here is the per-person math at the typical $30 price:
| Group size | Protein per person | Cost per person |
|---|---|---|
| 4 people | 3 pieces each | $7.50 |
| 5 people | 2 to 3 pieces each | $6.00 |
| 6 people | 2 pieces each | $5.00 |
For a group of 4 to 5, this is one of the lowest per-head prices on the KFC family menu. At 6, the two-large-side limit starts to feel tight, and adding one extra large side makes the spread comfortable. Groups of 7 or more should look at the bigger 8+8 feast below instead.
Delivery price reality
On delivery platforms the menu price itself is usually marked up before fees and tip are added. One sampled Uber Eats listing showed the feast at $36.00 versus the $30.00 base, and after platform fees, service fees, and a driver tip, the all-in total can land in the high $30s to mid $40s. In-store or pickup through the KFC app keeps it closest to the base price. Always check the final checkout total for your address before you commit.
KFC Chicken & Tenders Feast Nutrition Facts
KFC publishes the feast at 3,300 to 4,950 calories for the whole bundle. That is a wide 1,650-calorie swing, and it is driven almost entirely by your side and sauce choices. The chicken itself is stable: one Original Recipe tender is 140 calories, so 6 tenders contribute about 840, and the bone-in pieces are relatively consistent. Everything that moves the total up or down is what you pick around them.

| Calories | 140 |
| Total fat | 7g |
| Saturated fat | 1.4g |
| Cholesterol | 25mg |

| Protein | 10g |
What pushes the feast toward 3,300 or 4,950
Two large sides of lighter options (coleslaw or green beans style sides) with mustard-style sauces keep the bundle near the low end. Two large sides of mac and cheese or mashed potatoes with gravy, plus heavier sauces and extra cheese-based sides, push it toward the high end. The gap between the lightest and heaviest side combinations is roughly 1,600 calories for the whole box, or about 250 to 400 calories per person when six people share. If calories matter to you, pick your sides first and treat the sauces as the easy win.
Per-person estimate
That works out to about 825 to 1,240 calories per person for 4, or about 550 to 825 per person for 6, before drinks or extras. Confirm the current numbers on the official KFC menu page.
Which “Feast” Is This? A Quick Name Guide
KFC has several similarly named bundles, and ordering the wrong one is easy. Here is the lineup as of 2026:
| Bundle | Contents | Typical price |
|---|---|---|
| Chicken & Tenders Feast (this page) | 6 pc. chicken + 6 pc. tenders, 2 large sides, 3 sauces | $30.00 |
| Chicken and Tenders Feast (8+8) | 8 pc. chicken + 8 pc. tenders, 3 large sides, 4 biscuits, 4 sauces | $40.00 |
| Festive Feast (seasonal) | 8 drums and thighs, 2 large mashed potatoes, 4 biscuits, gravy | Varies |
| Value Feast boxes (2026) | Solo box meals, a separate lineup | $7 to $11 |
The key differences: the 8+8 feast adds biscuits and a third large side, while the seasonal Festive Feast has no tenders at all. Delivery apps sometimes show the 6+6 item under names like “Friendsgiving Feast,” which is the same bundle.
Sides and Sauce Choices
Choosing the two large sides is one of the best parts of the feast. Common options at most U.S. restaurants include Secret Recipe Fries, mashed potatoes with gravy, mac and cheese, coleslaw, and BBQ baked beans. Availability varies by location.
The three dipping sauces get picked at checkout. Common choices include Honey BBQ, Ranch, Buffalo, Honey Mustard, and Sweet N’ Tangy.
Allergens Information
The feast contains several common allergens across the breading, tenders, sides, and sauces. The main ones to know:
| Allergen | Present |
|---|---|
| Egg | Yes |
| Milk | Yes |
| Soy | Yes |
| Wheat | Yes |
| Gluten | Yes |
KFC kitchens use shared preparation areas and equipment, so cross-contact can occur even when an ingredient is not directly in your item. If you have a food allergy, check the current official allergen information before ordering.
Chicken & Tenders Feast vs Similar KFC Meals
If you are deciding between family bundles, this comparison shows where each one fits:
| Meal | Chicken | Tenders | Sides | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chicken & Tenders Feast | 6 pieces | 6 pieces | 2 large | Mixed groups that want both chicken and tenders |
| 8-Piece Chicken Only Bucket | 8 pieces | None | 2 large | Classic fried-chicken fans who skip tenders |
| 8 pc. Tenders Meal | None | 8 pieces | 2 large | Tender-only fans |
| 3-Piece Chicken Big Box Meal | 3 pieces | None | Individual side | One hungry person, not a group |
| 5-Piece Tenders Big Box Meal | None | 5 pieces | Individual side | Solo tender dinner |
The feast wins on variety per dollar for groups. The bucket wins when everyone wants bone-in chicken, and the 8 pc. Tenders Meal wins for tender-only crowds. The big box meals are individual portions, so they are a different category entirely.
How to Order the Chicken & Tenders Feast
Order in-store, through the KFC website, or through the KFC app, which is the smoothest option for customizing sides and sauces. Delivery is available through DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub where the local restaurant participates. The app shows the exact price for your location before you pay.
Is the Chicken & Tenders Feast Worth It?
For groups of 4 to 5 that enjoy both fried chicken and tenders, yes. At a typical $30, the per-person cost lands between $6.00 and $7.50, undercutting most combo meals per head while giving everyone a mix. The deal gets weaker for groups of 2 (too much food unless you want leftovers) and for groups where everyone only eats one style of chicken. Watch the side choices if calories matter, confirm the price for your location, and skip the delivery apps if the markup bothers you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are drinks or biscuits included with the feast?
Neither is included. The box has chicken, tenders, sides, and sauces only. Add drinks or biscuits separately if your group needs them.
What is the difference between the 6+6 and 8+8 feasts?
The 8+8 version has 8 pieces of chicken and 8 tenders, 3 large sides, 4 biscuits, and 4 sauces at a typical $40. The 6+6 feast has 2 large sides, 3 sauces, and no biscuits at a typical $30.
How much does the feast cost on delivery apps?
Delivery apps often mark up the menu price itself: one sampled listing showed $36.00 versus the $30.00 base. Platform fees and a driver tip can push the all-in total into the high $30s or $40s. Ordering through the KFC app or picking up keeps the price closest to the base.
Which side choices keep the calorie count lowest?
Lighter sides like coleslaw or green-beans style options, paired with lighter sauces, keep the bundle near the low end of the 3,300 to 4,950 calorie range. Mac and cheese or mashed potatoes with gravy push it toward the high end.
