Place and location in the movie: In front of Kentucky Fried Chicken, Kentucky, USA
Actual place and location: In front of Kentucky Fried Chicken, 701 Northwest 119th Street, Miami, USA
What happens here in the movie: Felix Leiter (Cec Linder) and his colleague Johnny (Peter Cranwell) follow Odd Job (Harold Sakata) and Mr. Solo (Martin Benson). (They think they are following Bond, but 007 put a homing device in Mr. Solo’s pocket).
Visited by 007 Travelers: July 2019
NOTE: Back in 1964 director Guy Hamilton chose the spot in Miami, because Kentucky was mentioned in the restaurant’s name. He didn’t know that KFC is a nationwide franchise, that is in many other cities besides Kentucky.

Thank you. I looked up places while watching Goldfinger and your site came up every time.
Hello Jaime.
Thanks. We are glad you found our site. Keep on Bonding 🙂
You are absolutely magnificent, 007Travellers! I think I looked on Google maps a while back to see the area I thought was the scene of the Kentucky Fried Chicken, but I must not have had the right location because although the site is significantly updated 55-plus years on, it’s amazing how you can see the basic structure, and indeed more amazing that the same business is there after all this time!!! Fantastic!!!
Thank you very much, Philip. It was great to visit KFC in Miami.
