This is definitely the best chicken-based chain in the US, better than Chick-Fil-A and KFC. By the way (unfortunately), I live in a very racially divided town, and when Popeyes moved in virtually every one of my black and Hispanic friends went there every day for lunch.

The dirty rice is awful. Biscuits are great. Fries aren't bad, the seasoning is good but the fries get cold quick.

The best chicken chain in my opinion. Although I might be biased since I am from New Orleans. Also the best mashed potatoes in my opinion. I'm also very impressed by the flavor of the Red Beans, and that's saying a lot, trust me.

Most suburban cats dont go here because they tend to be in urban war zones...but this chicken is pretty bleeping good for fast food. Get it spicy with red beans -n- rice.

First of all the Popeyes in San Marcos Texas in selling bad or spoil chicken with their 89cent special of 2 dark pieces. I went there Wedensday July 12, 2006 and bought a 2 piece. I knew something should have been wrong when my homegirl said " I heard the chicken was bad", but being the typical guy I said F-it and bought it. I also knew something should have been wrong when dude gave me 4 pieces instead of the two I ordered. I was like "damn they hookin it up". Anyway went to Austin and then came back to SM and when I exited of 35 I threw that shit up and will never go to Popeyes in Austin San Antonio Area ever, or until I feel like going.

Best fried chicken to come out of a drive-thru. Much better than KFC. And you can also get red beans and rice. The biscuits used to be great, not quite as good anymore but still delicious.

Popeye's in Franklinton,La. is slow,unfriedly, no matter when you go there you are asked to wait if you go through the drive-up, most of the time you have to blow your horn to get their attention. I know these people are not paid very much,maybe if they gave better service they would deserve better pay.

Out of the chicken chains that I've ever been too, I like Popeye's the best. Their chicken has a good flavor overall and i think that their cajun fries are a nice complement to the chicken as well.

This company serves the best chicken in town, not to mention there biscuits. I wouldn't eat here too much if you want to mantain your wasteline, but other then that its great. In reference to the bad customer service experiences, get over it--they hire at minumal wage so what do you expect as far as great customer services.

MY WITH AND I WENT OUT TO EAT AT POPEYE'S IN LAKELAND, FLORIDA BECAUSE WE HEARD THAT IT WAS GOOD, HOWEVER WE WERE TURNED AWAY BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T TAKE CREDIT CARDS. IS THIS THE AGGENTA OF ALL THE POPEYE' EVERYWHERE OR IS THIS ONE ISOLATED STORE. IF THIS IS THE WAY IT IS WITH ALL STORE'S YOU ARE LOOSING A LOT OF MONEY. I WON'T BE GOING BACK TO POPEYE'S AGAIN

I love everything on the menu at popeyes! The red beans and rice are the best. Popeyes cajun gravy makes the potatoes awsome. My boys can't seem to get enough of the potatoes. We only eat at Popeyes when we are on the road for travel hockey. so its a real treat. I wish we had a popeyes here in south Ft. Myers Florida. Then again it might prove to be too much temtation. The weight thing , you know.

Popeye's Famous Fried Chicken 3

I recently visited your new location at the Westgate Mall in Brockton, Ma. Having been in the business for 37 yrs, I was appalled at the way we were treated. I do realize that the location had recently opened and I also know that mistakes happen, but what was done to us was unforgiveable. We were given at least 2 wrong items, and one was never even ordered. The lines were long, but we arrived at the opening time, when everything should have been prepared and ready to go. While waiting to receive our order, there were 6 or 7 people ahead of us and all were waiting to return wrong items. When I went back to find out what happened to my side order and found it was never even ordered, the young lady who was supervising spoke to the girl who waited on us and she looked right at me and said They changed everything after they ordered. Having been in the restaurant industry for 37 years, 20 of it in management, and having trained dozens of servers, this person would work for me for as long as it took to get to the time clock and punch out. Even if a customer changes his/her mind after ordering, which has happened to me uncountable times, absolutely NEVER should reference be made in front of a customer, never mind in a line with a dozen others. Absolutely nothing was done to compensate for this huge faux pas. We were embarrassed in front of literally dozens of people. If you need someone to train your people in courtesy and professional treatment, let me know. To top it all off, my companion was given the wrong dessert. I have always enjoyed your product, but will likely never go back, as I will not be treated this way.

UPDATE: I'm going to have to try their Red Beans and Rice again. So may people have told me how good they are, and a few reviewers have commented on them as well. Maybe it was just a bad batch. Worth a second look. ORIGINAL COMMENT: Their chicken is good, but not as good as Church's. I love Red Beans and Rice, but not theirs. The rest of the stuff is OK.

This place does put KFC to shame. Their chicken is far superior and not as greasy/mushy. Their onion rings are killer, but unfortunately they are major gut-busters. Make sure you have some Maalox or Pepcid nearby. I like their red beans and rice as well.

Chincy, cheap and very unfilling. Every thing at Popeyes is low quality. I ate a sandwich for $3 and was hungry an hour later because it was small and a waste of calories, too much grease and the batter was awful.

Not the cleanest place in the world, but the New Orleans Spicy Chicken is excellent. You can hear your arteries busting with each crunchy bite. But what a way to go. Everything else on the menu is pretty nasty, save the buttermilk bisquits.

Ate at the newly opened Popeye's in Rogers, AR. First and last time I go there. Floor was filthy, cleanup people used their hands to wipe off the tables, cashier put thumb in my empty cup as she handed it to me, employee uniforms were spotted with sauce, grease, etc... Where's the Health Department? The manager was there....yakkin' with the help... Lady in front of me was comlaining about her order... I should have gone across the street to WENDY'S.

Chicken is spicy and tasty, and I love the mashed potatoes. Problem I have with my location is they never have enough employees working, on my last 2 visits there were 2 employees, one young kid doing all the cooking, and one girl running the registers and filling orders. The tables and condiment counters were filthy. I asked the girl if someone had called in sick and she said no, they were the only people scheduled.
