The ones in the Denver area seem to be fine.

I always feel empowered since I bring the diversity into the Popeye's when I eat inside.

And change a few things back to where it was, like the dirty rice.


And bring back the onion rings. Keep the chicken tacos far, far away.

It’s fascinating how other fast food franchises don’t try to copy chick fil a. CFA has lines wrapped around every location but nah let’s keep hiring the ghetto convicts who despise the customer

Popeyes in Texas are next level because they replace the big mamas with hard working Mexicans. Clean restaurants, decent service, fresh food. Incredible


Not East Texas, specifically Longview. There are two locations here that have to rank bottom two for fast food customer service. So why go there? The food is always great. It’s a weird paradox.

If Popeyes were like Chik Fil A or Canes, they could probably quadruple their annual sales.

That was my thought the other day when posters were criticizing the food at Cracker Barrel.

Last week I bought a couple of three piece dinners. It was 50% skin and fried dough and tasted terrible.
A couple days later I bought two chicken meals from Cracker Barrel. Very tasty.

I have a friend who works for CFA corporate and it’s really just a completely different company culture. They spend so much time focusing on quality and process that it just filters down top to bottom. They’re a pretty impressive company. I don’t think any of the others have the discipline to do it. They just let the franchise owners railroad the brand and DGAF as long as they collect their fees.

2 questions

1. Do Louisianans feel the same civic pride in Popeyes as Georgians do with Chick Fil A

2. Why are they always out of Blackened tenders ?

If Popeyes ever got Canes or Chick Fil A level service, they'd rule fast food.

I had a bad experience about 3 years ago and swore I would never go back. Screw them and their bad attitudes and incompetent employees.

The ones around here are usually pretty good, not super fast or anything, but the crews are usually very friendly and the food is what you ask for.
I stopped in last week and got a 10 piece box, I had to wait a few minutes, but I had fun joking around with the crew and they loaded me down with the Cajun Sparkle Packs. I love that stuff on everything.
Oh, they gave me a bunch of extra sporks in my bag too.
Best modern invention ever. Perfect for eating beans and rice.
