“Popeyes moist chicken”

Yvette H.
7/14/24

I enjoy Popeyes chicken at Vandegrift Blvd in Oceanside, Ca and Popeyes chicken on Vista Way in Vista, Ca chicken is always moist and hot. They're Popeyes chicken on Oceanside Blvd in Oceanside, Ca that their chicken is over cooked and very dry. (dark meat).

“Worst customer service”

Eric S.
10/23/24

Decent food but done of the worst customer service I've have had. Would give lower review if possible. Front counter had no line and attendance spent 15 MINUTES arguing with each other over who would take my order; all refusing to serve me. When they saw to me they literally threw my family order in the bag to send me off.

Waited forever for my food just to get home and find out the chicken wasn't even cooked all the way.

Waited 20 min no one took our order. We ended up going to KFC. Better food and service. Need to train your employees on customer service skills.

The size of their pieces of chicken are astonishingly small. I didn't know that a thigh could be bite sized. What a rip off. Never again.

I got a Popeyes story for you, 1-6-2023, the Fort Smith AR. One on zero st. I go there and there is a long line, two people give up their place in the drive thru, so i finally get to where you order and there is a sign that says please pull up to the window, well 20 min later i get there. I was getting 3 orders for the office and they proceeded to tell me they can only take one coupon from me so i explained how long i was in line and she said sorry, so i asked to speak to her manager and she said the same thing after i explained it to her, finally the manager got me her GM and no help there either, so asked for a phone number of her supervisor, she wouldn't give it to me and said she was the GM, to which i said well your a Horrible general Manager then and she told me in a very hateful way that i could just leave and then called me a $#*!. Now im not writing this for any perks from Popeyes in any way, from this experience i am Through with this company, i wouldnt take any thing from them if they offered it. And i will tell this story to the mountain tops, now i know they wont go out of buisness from me telling of what happened to me, but i will not be silent!

Placed an order on mobile app for Popeyes
Location: ******* Vanowen St. Reseda *******. Picked up my order, it was missing the 8 pcs Nuggets. I called the number of the store and was told that I can pick it up, when I got to the store the person in the front stating that their phone is broken and that I called the office. So I asked her what are u gonna do about it? She said nothing, i didnt receive ur call and I am not giving u the missing item. I called the number again somebody picked up stating that she remembers me calling and put me on hold, hanged up and never answers again when I tried calling back. I called the number over 10 times and nobody picked up, I left a message. Tried calling customer service but there is no way to speak to a live agent. Person in the store aren't very
Helpful and this is not the first time that this happened. I was explaining to them that I had to go out of my job and will be late to pick up my kid at school. The nuggets is for him btw. This is not about the nuggets or how much I paid it's about the stress, the inconvenience it caused me. I had to drive back and be late to pick up my kid. I paid my food, followed the process, they messed up and making it impossible to make up for their mistake. The people at this store shows no love for their work, maybe u aren't getting paid right or do not like what u do but u applied, agreed and getting paid for the job so it is ur responsibility to perform ur duties. Reported them to BBB.

I understand a price increase but $6 for cup of lemonade is ridiculous. You better off going to the store. Sad

The Popeye's in Spanish Fort Al has great service, and the chicken is fresh, crunchy and batter not too heavy. Highly recommend.

In my opinion their popcorn shrimp is overcooked and the pieces are tiny, more like a piece of breading with very little shrimp.
