Popeyes Failure to Serve

My family and I went to Popeyes on 8537 South Freeway in Fort Worth, TX around 8:30pm on 3/29/2023. We waited at the register for about 5 minutes or so waiting for someone to take our order. We received looks from several employees, but none of them said anything to us. Finally, a manager appeared from the back of the restaurant and told us the dining area was closed. I asked him how can the dining area be closed when the door was unlocked, and we have been in here for at least 5 minutes or so? His only response was "I said the dining room is closed" and proceeded to force us out.

This was some of the worst customer service I have ever experienced, and I have experienced a lot of bad customer service at this restaurant.

I do not see myself visiting this restaurant again until something is done about the service here.

Desired outcome: I would like to see better customer service from management if nothing else. I would also like a response from upper management to know that something will be done.

Popeyes Service and food

Wanted advertised fish. Girl in drive-thru said, we ain't got fish". I then ordered big box 2 thighs spicy, red beans and rice, mashed potatoes.

Drivethru girl was chewing food and very rude- ghetto! Got home and mashed potatoes had the juice from red beans and rice over it, the red bns were like soup and biscuits werecold and hard! For anew location, they definitely need new staff and management before doors close!

Sharonville, ohio on Lebanon rd.. absolutely terrible!

Desired outcome: Refund and or gift card for a different location. Laura Stander1052 Adams RdLoveland, Ohio 45140Laura.[protected]@yahoo.com

Popeyes Cold food

I went to the Popeye's on Austin Peay in Memphis. The drive through speakers weren't working so I had to drive to window. Ordered spicy chicken and fries. I should have known they would be cold. I got one fry out when driving away and it was cold. I live 5 minutes from the store and my sandwich was cold. The fries are always cold.

I like the taste of the chicken but there is a KFC, bojangles and a small business chicken place within the same distance of my house.

This Popeyes needs to up its service, food heat and service.

Desired outcome: Please get these people to show some pride in their product and store.

Popeyes Food quality

We stopped at the Ft Worth location 8537 South Freeway. The food was terrible, it was so soggy, extreme hot and the bread was stiff as a board. It must have been baking under the heat lamp for hours... To my surprise when going inside to ask for a fresh sandwich or refund the long line of people were also from the drive thru doing the exact same thing. The employees did not care, gave attitude but when there is that many people saying the same thing you have to check the shelf life of the product you are serving.. something does not add up. I witnessed the cashier place back the orders that were returned under the heat lamp to be served again to someone else... I was in shock, I could not eat my food knowing this is how they prepared the meals. We simply just walked out and left with my reciept. We had ordered 2 spicy chicken sanwichs with fries and drinks.

Desired outcome: Would like a refund honestly, or a voucher to get our sandwhiches at another location. We love popeyes but this location was the worst...

Popeyes Rude staff

920 pm yesterday evening. Went to pick up online order and person at drive thru was very rude and slammed door in face while I was asking a question. Sat at drive through waiting to speak with someone about weather they would be reopening later since all outside lighting was still on and no one would come to window. Drove around to main entrance and that was when we discovered 3 of the workers standing outside the door smoking weed. (drive thru lady, some man that claimed to be maintenance and another young black guy) While we was arguing with the 3 workers about smoking weed on company property and on company time another customer approached in a car. We was at least 15 ft from the workers and the smell of marijuana was so strong the other customers had to smell it as well. The owner needs to be aware of what is going on at his establishment because these disrespectful workers that treat customers rude are ruining his business. Tried to call the 10786 us-441 Belleview, fl popeyes location several times and the phone number is just a busy signal, no way to contact anyone for this location.

Desired outcome: Would like an apology for the rudeness of their workers and an acknowledgement that the owner is fully aware of how his business is NOT being ran.

Popeyes Management

Popeyes Kings Highway Port Charlotte Florida. Been going there for over a year hoping it would improve, Food is good. Management is lacking, first you can only eat inside because

the call box was broken for months, drive through and drink machine only works sometimes in the lobby. Today I went there for lunch and the inside was closed and the drive thru was open sat in line behind two cars waiting for 1/2 hour and never moved, finally just left. The owners of Popeyes in this area need to be informed of the Poor management and correct these deficiencies ASAP. (They are losing lots of money now)

Walter E Elam

Desired outcome: Fix the problem with Proper Management

Popeyes Popeye's claim to give back to community is proven to be false

In February, 2023, I called Popeye's at Midlothian Trnpk Richmond VA, and spoke to the manager. I inquired about an in-kind donation to our non-profit agency. She gave me the name and number for a Brian Thrower to talk to about our need. I was unable to reach him and left several messages asking him for a call back. He never did respond. I didn't give up! I emailed him several times, appealing for a response. He didn't bother to answer. THIS DISREGARD WAS RUDE AND HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL. I sent verification documentation: IRS letter of Determination letter, copy of 2022 NEWDLETTER FEATURING THE PHOTOS OF DISTRIBUTION OF EASTER BASKets to nurses for each infant in their NICUs.

WoMen of Connection Ministry (WOC) is a non-profit agency located in Richmond VA. WOC SPONSORS AN EASTER BASKET PROJECT FOR HOSPITALIZED INFANTS IN THREE NICUs. The parents, nurses and volunteers who's concerns and efforts show that they care deserves recognition.

23. of Connection Ministry ([protected]@gmail.com) had hoped to apply to Popeye's for a food donation for to feed 62 people. WOC asked for: 124 PCs of signature mild chicken. 62 biscuits and honey omen 64 sides. I understand that this was a large request, however we believed it was possible. We needed this donation by April 17th, 2023. All we expected was an answer.

Desired outcome: Please provide WoMen of Connection Ministry WOC with this in-kind donation of:1). 124 PCs of your white meat, mild chicken2). 62 beside orders of your Mac &cheese3). 62 biscuits

Popeyes Popeyes # 10596

Ordered a Tackle Box for lunch and my wife ordered a child’s 6 piece nuggets meal. We waited a long time for our food. Others around us were getting their food and we ordered before them. I went to the counter to complain and the girl said they were working on ours. I waited another long period of time and went back to the counter to get a refund to leave. She said they were putting our order together and bring it out. I went back a third time and saw an order sitting on the back counter. A manager,I thought came out from the back and said here is your order hot and fresh. Carried it to the table to discover the fries were not hot and fresh and we started to eat. Looked at our receipt and saw we were charged for another fry and had only received one. Went back to the counter and asked for a refund for the fries we aid for and didn’t get. The same person said “we don’t give refunds I’ll get you another fry”. I took our receipt back that I had given her and walked away. I heard her talking about the customer who wanted a refund for a fry order but didn’t hear any replies.

We had bought your nuggets before and they were good, these were super small and very had a lot of grease in them.

I tired calling about 4 different phone numbers to verbally complain and none of the numbers listed for your corporate office were numbers that were working numbers.

Very disappointed.

Desired outcome: A refund of my order, merchant ID is [protected]. Order number 66Total order was $14.34William Pate2507 Watson DriveJackson, MO 63755Phone 573-382-1336I have my receipt if you would like a copy

Popeyes The food I received

On Monday March 13, 2023 at 6:30 pm I placed an order at popeye’s store number 12388 drive thru window for a 10 pieces (only was given 8 pc) big family meal for $24.60. Upon arriving home and sitting down to eat the meal I just bought, I discovered the chicken had been cooked so hard that the skin disintegrated when it was broken(see photo), the bottom of the biscuits were green (see photo), the red beans and rice smelled so bad it would make a maggot gag, and the mashed potatoes were old and dried out. I would have went back to this location but it wasn’t around the corner from where I live besides I had to cook started cooking something for my family and myself to eat. I’m so so disgusted by this every time I think about it, I get sick to the stomach.

Desired outcome: Money returned and person(s) responsible be reprimanded

Popeyes Popeye locations in Milwaukee, WI 53223

I have ordered several times @ 4 different locations in Milwaukee and have had horrible service. either the the order is wrong or they are out of chicken (white meat), They will give you spicey when asked for mild. Lobby not open, so sit in drive thru for 30 min or more, get to front and told we out of chicken. Deliveries are wrong, I don't care how much you complain nothing gets done, no one responds to us. Have tried several locations here in Milwaukee & all are the same. Managers & employees are unprofessional. You all at Corporate Office or the local stores do not care. It's all about getting our money for poor service and food. You can close all of them down as far as I am concered. I'm tired of wasting my money and get no response when trying to contact the store or anybody. Something needs to be done about the poor, unprofessional treatment we receive here in Milwaukee.

Popeyes Food/condiment lack

To whom it may concern:

I am very frustrated with my local popeyes. Just about every time I order it for door dash, something is missing. However, my complaint today is for a pick up order #43 on 03/12/2023. I ordered 4 different meals via the app and my husband went to pick it up. However, was told they only had the meat (no sides or biscuits) which was not indicated on the app. I tried to use the app to file a complaint but when I asked to escalate to an agent, one never appeared in the chat. Therefore, I am reaching our using this forum and would like to be compensated for the missing items please.

Desired outcome: Compensation for missing items and better supply at local Popeyes.
