Kingsley's Chicken is a fast food retail chain based in Weston Creek, Australian Capital Territory, a suburb of Canberra. As of 2014, the chain operates 7 outlets in the ACT and one in the neighbouring city of Queanbeyan, New South Wales.

A controversial advertising campaign in 2000 which used the catch line "They get a trip to London, and we get the GST. Is that fair? Kingsley's unbelievable chicken, awesome chips, because we care" was pulled from the air following complaints from the Federal Government. The Government claimed the advertisements - which also showed images of Prime Minister John Howard and Australian Democrats leader Meg Lees - breached regulations restricting political advertising.[1]
