Food / Drink The official Popeyes thread

Popeyes for lunch it is

 

[Shawn1112]

Wrong. Go to a non shit Popeyes. I've probably had 15-20 so far. All have been amazing.

As I said, has potential and will try again when the hype dies down. But my sandwich today was not worth the hype at all.
Very dry and not much spice at all.

 

[Mook]

If you're expecting it to be actually spicy, prepare yourself now.... Then again, I seem to have a higher tolerance for fast food "spicy".

Ok, I'll admit I was a bit nervous with wombat's review...I had had one on Saturday and it was awesome but they werent overly busy then. Today, there was a line out the parking lot for the drive-thru and a line inside. They were pumping out sandwiches like crazy so I was a bit scared I would be hit with inferior quality.

Upon opening the wrapping, I was presented with a big piece of chicken. The first bite told the rest of the story....full of flavor, super juicy, so good. I dunno how they did but all the ingredients, including the bun, work together in perfect harmony. It was so good.

If I had any complaint, its that it needed more of their sauce.

 

[wombat]

Mine was still juicy, just wasn't piping hot like they've been in the past. I've legit watched them make the sandwich everytime I ordered in the past so I knew it was fresh.

 

[wombat]

Also, I'd still go back and get it again even if it was that way ?

There's the old trick to get ingredients taken off so they have to make a custom one for you all fresh and ready to go and then ask for the ingredient on the side, like the pickles if that's what those are?

Was just thinking that same thing. Ask for one without the sauce and pickles if that's what they put on it? I don't even know what the sauce is?

 

[RICH17]

Got mine about 3pm today. FANTASTIC. Juicy, flavorful, cole slaw was on point, Would bang again.

 

[Mook]

I TOLD YA. I TOLD Y'ALL.

 

[RICH17]

yea, was really good. Way more juicy than chickfila

 

[boostedguy05]

Impossible, chifillocrap is so juicy even the breading is wet.

 

[Mook]

Popeyes makes CFA look like a dried up 90 year old woman.

 

[bmoore04]

CFA > Popeyes.

The breading is a disappointment. Its not spicy at all. The overall kick is disappointing. Wendy's has way more kick.

Maybe the Wendy's by you sucks, but the one by me is always on point. Never been dried out, and its always juicy with crispy breading.

That's a lot of sammiches.

Stopped at the Kenosha one today. Drive thru line was backed up around the building and into the street, zero parking spots in the lot open.

Aaaand the store was trying to accept a delivery. Lmao the driver was pissed.

Ended up at KFC down the street. Will try again later.

Wendy's has never been spicy, ever. And I used to eat like cardiac arrest amounts. Nothing you get from a fast food joint is spicy.

 

[PANDA]

Tried to get this yesterday. 50+ people in line at a Popeyes downtown.

 

[FESTER665]

People are fucking nuts.

 

[cacicgtp7]

That’s ridiculous - not sure if it’s funny though

 

[Chet Donnelly]

Its now more dangerous trying to buy a Popeye's chicken sandwich in the ghetto than crack!

 

[SirMarco]

Might try this for lunch today. There is one about 10 minutes away. It's never busy.

 

[P40E]

Im going to try this , but I'll use the drive thru for safety .

 

[Chet Donnelly]

This type of behavior never happens at Chick-fil-A!
