Popeyes

I like Popeye’s but our experience here was pretty terrible. My husband ordered spicy chicken and fries, I ordered mild chicken and mashed potatoes. Despite assuring my husband that the spicy chicken was with the fries (and marking the box ‘spicy’), they put the mild chicken with the fries and the spicy chicken with the mashed potatoes and my husband ate all the mild chicken, assuming it just wasn’t that spicy. In addition to the spiciness in the breading, which I didn’t especially want but could tolerate, the spicy chicken also had a rubbery, gelatanous texture and didn’t really taste like chicken. It was very unappetizing. My husband also requested ranch dressing and they didn’t include any, and the food took forever to come out. The biscuit was the only good thing about the meal.

Fried Chicken has great flavor and the sides are wonderful. Red Beans & Rice is my favorite. Popeyes chicken has more flavor than the place that now goes by three letters

Well, the chicken here wasn’t too bad. I’d never been to a Popeye’s before, so I was willing to give it a shot. I absolutely hate whatever KFC does, and would easily choose Popeye’s over that – but Chick Fil A is quite a bit better than Popeye’s. I’m not sure if I should have a fast food chicken hierarchy so easily accessible. … …
The most exciting thing about our visit (on the way back from the Indianapolis airport) was the manager. She announced quite loudly to the entire restaurant that she was running on 45 minutes of sleep over the past two days and that MARCUS was going to DIE if he didn’t figure out how the BISCUITS and FRYERS worked. I never saw Marcus but wanted to escape from the place as soon as possible, so I assume he was thinking along those same lines.
The manager was going a liiiittle crazy, so I downed my meal and got out of there as soon as possible. She pretty much eclipsed anything else I’d write about – price seemed fairly reasonable, restaurant seemed fairly clean – so I don’t remember too much else…
