Taunton KFC says they will remain closed as deliveries of chicken have not yet made it to the store.
An employee at Bridgwater KFC, said: "We are hoping to open today as we are waiting for a delivery.
"We are unsure of what time the delivery will come but we hope it will come before tea-time."
Stores in Glastonbury, Frome, Wincanton and Weston-super-Mare have also been affected by the delivery problems.
A number of residents have spoken out in anger on social media about the closures.
