KFC has brought back its iconic Zinger Double Down sandwich after a five-year hiatus, with a spicier twist on the original bunless burger.
The limited-edition sandwich is now available nationwide for £7.49, running from today until March 16.
The return follows years of demand from fans seeking the unique creation that replaces traditional bread buns with crispy chicken fillets.
The new version features two spicy Zinger chicken fillets serving as the buns, creating a bold, bunless burger experience.

Between the crispy fillets, customers will find two servings of KFC’s signature Supercharger Mayo sauce and two slices of melted cheese.
For the first time in the sandwich’s history, KFC has added a crispy hashbrown in the middle, adding an extra layer of crunch to the already indulgent creation.
To mark the sandwich’s return, KFC has unveiled specialised packaging designed to maintain its signature crunch.
The new box features greaseproof lining to protect the crispy chicken fillets.
It also includes ventilation holes, specifically engineered to prevent steam from affecting the texture of the sandwich.
Brand manager at KFC UK&I Phoebe Syms said: “The Double Down isn’t just a menu item – it’s a KFC icon with a cult following like no other. Fans have been calling for its return for years, and we’re beyond excited to finally bring it back with a fiery twist.
“We’ve made sure it’s everything they remember and more, from the legendary crispy chicken ‘buns’ to brand-new packaging that keeps every bite as perfect as the first.
“This is all about giving our fans the ultimate Double Down experience they’ve been craving – but they’ll need to be quick, as it’s only here for a limited time.”
