Will you try KFC’s returning Potato Wedges when they hit stores nationwide on August 18?

KFC Brings Back Beloved Potato Wedges After Five-Year Hiatus

KFC is officially bringing back its iconic Potato Wedges nationwide on August 18, 2025, after a five-year absence from the menu. The thick-cut, seasoned wedges were removed in 2020 during a menu simplification but have remained one of the most requested comeback items among fans. Earlier this year, a limited test run in Tampa sold out quickly, prompting KFC to include them in its “Kentucky Fried Comeback” campaign. The wedges will be available for a limited time alongside the return of Hot & Spicy Wings, which are also making a nationwide comeback. Customers can order them as a side, swap them into combo meals, or buy them a la carte—while supplies last. Secret Recipe Fries will remain on the menu during this promotion.
