On July 18, 2023 I called the Popeyes location 3540 US-280 431 N to ensure they had the menu items I was looking for because the one on Hwy 80 Phenix City did not. The lady did in fact answer the phone, but once I asked if they had what I was looking for she rudely smacked her lips and hung up the phone in my face. Didn't even answer me! I proceeded to call...

Service has deteriorated noticeably over the past few months. Examples: I order "mild" and get "spicy" chicken 3 out 5 times. I ask for Ranch dipping sauce and get Honey Mustard. What used to be really good chicken nuggets have become hard, greasy lumps of batter that have been under a heat lamp for too long. There is an issue with the amount of attention...

Popeyes Corporate pig in the lobby

I went into store 2295 for lunch today, July 17th 2023 at 11:39 am, and there was some Popeyes corporate pig in there sprawled out over the table with his office. I tried to enjoy my lunch, but my appetite was lost due to listening to him talk on the phone about the correct way to fire people. You could tell he really enjoyed screwing with people's lives. I was sick to my stomach. that is conversations that can be done from his office. the store served me an amazing lunch, piping hot and fresh, I was ready to dig in, but listening to this pig, I had to get up and leave. just because he has a big paycheck and is some big boss does not mean he can act that way in front of customers. when we go in and pay for our meal, that is our dining room, not his office. I felt so bad for the staff there. when I spoke to the manager I could tell his hands were tied because the pig out ranked him. people like that should not be allowed to go into the stores and act like they own the world.

Desired outcome: pig to meet me at the store an apologize to me and all the staff at that store for the way he acted today. dig into his pockets and buy us all lunch. If not, channel 13 news. they love this stuff.

Popeyes Employees, service, management and/ staff appearance

I suggest there are so many things wrong with this store that only a company rep should surprise visit the store on High Street in Longview TX.

I will never go back. What made me write this is the 10 customers that drove out of the drive thru while I waited behind the man at the order speaker. He was a very patient man. I had one of my kids go to the dine in door and it was locked and no sign to say why. It was 6 pm So we continued to wait. I finally ask the man in front of me to see if the 3 cars I had seen pull around had got their order or just drove off like the others. He pulled up and finally got his order. When I got the

“Lady” at the window I said why is it taking so long. She said people are stupid and cannot figure out the microphone was broken and to pull around and order. I asked why she didn’t put a sign up over the order mic to let customers know She just snarled and I asked you don’t really give a [censored] do you and she just shook her head. A younger employee came over a told the window employee ( I assume was the Mgr that he was going to smoke a cig and walked away without being acknowledged. My food. Was cold and rubbery like it had been sitting there most of the day. This was the second time this past month I tried to get something decent and the mic was broken then and this day. As I drove off in appx 5 minutes that kid was still leaning on the building lighting another cig.

Desired outcome: Close the store.

First of all my heart is completely broken because I went into my local popeyes, the same popeyes that I have been visiting for years. Its at 814a Highway 12 W, the store number is 4706 in Starkville, Ms. I had several of the coupons from the back of the receipt where you get a free two piece and a biscuit if you purchase a large drink. I have been using...

Popeyes Avoid this establishment AT ALL COSTS

A few weeks ago I experienced the worst culinary dissapointment of my life. First of all the wait for our food was interminably long and by the time we finally recieved our meal the food was cold. We ordered a 6 piece nugget deal which came with a side of biscuits and gravy. The chicken was greasy, overcooked, and lacked any sort of flavor. It was if they had deep fried a piece of rubber. I don't know what the hype around biscuits and gravy is all about, because these were disgusting. The gravy had seeped into the biscuit, but it didn't make much difference because it was already as dense and as tasteless as a hockey puck. I would rather starve than eat popeyes again. No really, I would.

Desired outcome: I want a Refund

Popeyes Popeye's Quality

7/12/23 We ordered 10 piece box of CLASSIC chicken for $19.99 in the drive thru. Also, we had a coupon for $3.00 off of a $15.00 order. Once we got home we had a combination of SPICY & CLASSIC. The receipt said 2 wings...we had 4 wings & the chicken was over cooked, dry & very disappointing. The wings were nonedible.

We usually pick up the chicken sandwiches & have never been disappointed. We might order sandwiches again but will not be ordering chicken.

I would hope you would compensate us after this disappointing dinner.

Thank you for your consideration.

Popeyes ghost pepper 6 for $5 / combo

On 7/12/23 around 3 pm. I wanted to try your ghost pepper wings in a combo. I got what I ordered, but, I must have gotten some wings that have been sitting under the heat lamps for some time. The flavors were there, but, they were very dry and over cooked. The biscuit was also very dry. The mashed potatoes with gravy and they tasted like instant mixes.

I will say the service was good and quite friendly.

The store I went to has only been in operation for around one year. Located on Cheney Hwy in Titusville Florida.

I was the only car in line and I think the only customer at the time.

Desired outcome: I don't mind spending money for good food, but, this was not so good. I usually go to the store on Merritt Island FL. Could I possibly receive a coupon or gift card to try again.

Popeyes Location 10969: The order was placed at 4:21 on 07/11/2023, order # 83, at the drive-through. The attendant told me they would bring my order to my car. I saw a car pull out while I waiting. After 36 minutes I went into the store to see what was happening. I was informed that the chicken would be ready in one more minute. How can it take this much...

Popeyes Service

We ordered online and paid for: 2 pc white meat spicy and Red Beans and Rice

2 pc white meat spicy and mashed potatoes/gravy

When we got there they had no order for us. They asked us to pull forward until they found our order. I waited 10 more minutes and finally went in and showed my receipt. She went over and picked the receipt out and filled it.

We got: 1 drumstick and 1 thigh and the other 1 wing and a thigh.

Also the speaker was not working so you pull to the window.

My take on this is don't order online and surly don't pay online.

2 employees were seated when I came in to get the order and no one seemed concerned about anything. I'm retired from pharmacy/manager and I know how things run. Mistakes are made but there must be an urgency to correct them. I am not mad and will continue to trade there. It is the only one close to our house. Just an FYI and nothing needs to be done on my end. Thank You Mike Cummins

Desired outcome: Nothing Just an FYI which you should want to know about

This afternoon (July 9, 2023, approx. 2:00pm), I dodged a pothole in the middle of the entrance of the drive thru lane to sit in the Drive thru for 30 minutes to get 2 chicken sandwiches. This particular Restaurant is very dirty and unkept. The speaker to order our food was dirty with bumper stickers such as F... President Biden. I wondered if the speaker...

Popeyes Popeyes Store Number 13493

I went to store number 13493 this evening (7/823) @ 7:03 pm. I ordered an 8 piece chicken meal, ALL WHITE meat. I arrived home and found I had been “stiffed”. I actually had three thighs (dark meat) and four legs; no telling why I did not receive 8 pieces. Maybe it is because I am white as a matter of fact! Anyway, I’ll go to Southern Classic Fried Chicken if I want to get a satisfactory order.

Union Parish LA

Desired outcome: I’d like this store to receive word they need to provide me with an all white, eight piece meal.No charge…..already paid!

I have gone to this particular Popeyes twice in the last month and the first time I went on a Sunday and an employee was sitting at a table on her phone and immediately told us that they didn’t have any chicken or sides because there was only three people there so they couldn’t cook food. I went again last weekend and I was told on another Sunday night that...

I ordered chicken at the Popeye's in Russellville, Ar. I prefer the dark meat. When my order was ready I picked it up and the drumsticks were tiny. The top part of the drumsticks were completely gone, leaving the chicken piece to look like a wing drum instead of a drumstick. I will not go back to Popeyes anytime soon. Maybe who you get your chicken from needs to hear this also.

Popeyes Incorrect orders

This location had not got one order correct. Again today. I understand people make mistake. I sit there and watch if the even check the order? Then when you tell them its no correct you get attitude. I will not go to the other location in Cincinnati due to the same experience. As a professional my self I would want to know about problems. Not sure you do. Just the same I want to give feed back for Cincinnati, OH.

Desired outcome: Visit you Cincinnati locations and change your staff if needed,

Store was dirty. Cashier was an African American tall and thin female. Never addressed us, never thanked us. We asked for fresh fries because the fries she gave us was cold. She put the SAME batch in the box again. My chicken was supposed to be mixed. They gave me ALL legs and thighs. The cashier had attitude, attitude, attitude! I asked for the manager...
