Popeyes Purchase reciept

For over 2 months the store in Pensacola Florida on Saufley Field Rd has been handing out drive through receipts that cannot be read. I have complained to the MANAGER several times but nothing has been done to correct the problem. It is a violation of Florida law to fail to provide a clearly legible receipt. I have given this information to the manager several times, and on two of those occasions I have recorded video of the occasions so nothing can be denied. NOTHING on these receipts can be read or recognized. Because these receipts cannot be read my employer is refusing me compensation - which now amounts to approximately $50.00 in November alone. I would like to have this problem resolved quickly, otherwise I'm afraid I will have to take action on a different path.

Desired outcome: FIX OR REPLACE THE DRIVE THROUGH REGISTER.

Popeyes Overcharging for combo

I visited your store #5958 on rt.4 paramus last night and was charged for items I did not order. I ordered a #1 classic chicken combo with a sprite and fries. Should have been 9.99 plus tax and when I pulled up to the order they told be $14.97. I told them that that was incorrect and she said no you ordered a combo with a drink and fries. I replyed yes but it shouldn't be that high. They charged me for large fries which I did not order and they said we don't have small drinks so your getting a medium. I told her that you should charge me for the med just because you don't have a small. My receipt states 9.99 #1 classic combo, 2.00 for large fries &.80 for med coke. I ordered a sprite by the way. I told them she was overchargeng me and didnt like the way she told me well that is the price. She took a $1.00 off but wouldn't take the rest off. I will never go to this place again. They were rude and told me well thats the price. I can't even image how many other people they are taking advantage of. My transaction id3 [protected]-57874

Popeyes Drive Through 30 plus minutes

We're having issues here at the Popeyes on Wax Rd. City of Central, Louisiana. My husband waited about 25 minutes in line. He parked the SUV and went inside along with another couple who followed him inside having waited in line for some time as well. The people told my husband and the other couple they were not doing any orders inside only drive thru... So they went back out and got back into line. Luckily no one had driven up while they went inside... My husband said he saw quite a number of people who had given up and left.

Desired outcome: Install cameras and learn what is going on and work to correct it.

Popeyes Bad service at restaurant

Popeyes restaurant located on 7131 Reading Rd, Cincinnati, Ohio 45237 is the worst one I have been to. The incident occurred on Tuesday, 11/1/2022 at 3:15 pm the line was long in the drive thru, register was malfunctioning and employees had no way to give change. So each person has to pay the exact money or card. Another problem there was not enough staff members to cover for the particular shift. Horrible customer service and unsanitary conditions and long waiting time on orders. I would never go to this restaurant again.

Desired outcome: Better employees and on time orders

On 11/3/22, we stood in the drive thru line at Popeye's Chicken located on the corner of Springboro Pike and Alex Bell. My main complaint is that there was an employee that came to the parking lot and told all the cars standing in line at the time that the registers were closed. There was one person about 3 cars back that refused to move so that all the...

Popeyes Refund

On 10/21/2022 I placed an order for $21.70, I canceled the order and requested a refund. the clerk told me I would get my refund deposited to my citi bank acct. I return about 3 times to see why they did not refund the money. I requested managers who told me I had to wait for 5 to 7 days. As of today, I got no refund. I would like the organization to train the employees so they can take care of our refund, etc the employees are not friendly and the managers have bad attitudes. I hope I can get my refund and want you to know that I will never use popeyes again.

Desired outcome: Please refund.

Popeyes all your meals size chicken and sides

Purchased a 11 pc chicken meal at your Abbeville La store on Wed 11/2/22 and I purchase quite frequently but the size of the chiucken pieces was rediculiously small, the sides, cole slaw reduced by a third and the only thing same as past was the frenchfries, You have lost my business. I will go to Kentucky Fried Chicken or elsewhere from now on. You can't cheat people for long and once you have lost a customer you have lost them for good.Too bad because you had a good meal and I didn't object to the price increase but not the way you are shorting your customers.

Desired outcome: you have to earn back my business and I am not buying your meals as is.

The Popeyes Restaurant located on 7131 Reading Rd in Cincinnati, Ohio, 45237 is the worst Popeyes I have been to. The service is slow and the people are rude. The last time I was there you could not enter the restaurant and the register wasn't working. I would advise upper management to look at this Popeyes for better service. In my opinion it is the worst Popeyes in Cincinnati.

Popeyes Service

1. Popeye's either doesn't have chicken or sides. I'm not sure how a chicken place can't have chicken. And this can be as early as 1:00 p.m. in the afternoon

2. You have to have exact change or amount of money.

3. Whatever specials they are offering they don't have.

I suggest someone from corporate office do a surprise visit and catch them in the act.

Desired outcome: Better service. Provide the food that they are advertising.

Popeyes Biscuits

I have never been to Popeyes. We are vegetarians. I saw your commercial and your biscuits looked great.

We pulled over to your Berkeley location on San Pablo Avenue.

We bought one coleslaw and 6 biscuits.

There wasn’t any butter but I don’t know if that’s what accompanies the biscuits.

We went straight home. I opened the box and they were hard as rocks 🪨 !

Door stops !

We don’t know if this was a joke.

Desired outcome: An apology and our money back. Disgraceful. Was this a joke ?

Desired outcome: I pay money I want what I paid for

Popeyes inability to have food orders the way I ask

I contacted the popeyes in Anchorage prior to making a door dash order to ask for all dark meat.

I was told they couldn't do anything til the order came in so I then ordered the food and was told that I could not change it to all dark meat.

everytime I place an order at this popeyes there is a problem last time I ordered a 4 piece meal and was charged for it but I received a 3 piece meal instead.

I really like Popeyes but as a customer I can't should not be a phrase used.

I have been a restaurant and retail manager before and if you tell customers you will do something you should do it.

Please talk to the staff and store manager about customer service.

I guess I will have to use another place to order lunch from.

I am just very disappointed in the customer service atmosphere at this particular store.

Desired outcome: more professionalism better service honesty in business practices.

We had been looking forward to eating at Popeyes after it had been closed for a month or so. First of all we arrive and there is a super long line to order inside, I see there is like 20 or so employees just going back and forth, only one register open and taking forever, as I am waiting I start seeing employees just hatting doing nothing in the doorway and...

Popeyes 2 piece combo dinner

A Popeye's restaurant opened on Oshkosh ave. in Oshkosh, WI. I tried it for the first time tonight. First off, they have parking for about 10 cars and when you enter the parking lot you are actually facing the exit traffic from the drive through. I don't know what idiot designed that but he should not have got paid. Next, I went in, ordered a 2 piece chicken combo dinner and told them I wanted the original not the extra crispy chicken. They gave me an empty cup for the beverage that comes with dinner. I went to the machine, only added a little ice, and dispensed my beverage (Coke). By then my dinner box was ready. I took it and my coke with me and went home. I open the box to find that I have extra crispy chicken instead of regular. I taste the Coke and it tasted watered down even though I had hardly any ice in it and I only live 5 blocks away so I know it wasn't the ice that watered it down. Next, I tasted the mashed potatoes and gravy. Needless to say, it was not great. I went to their Facebook page and wanted to post a review and what a surprise it wouldn't let me post it. Overall, I wouln't ever bother to spend a dime there ever again.

Desired outcome: $8.91 refund. Richard Diedrich1400 Buchanan Ave. Oshkosh, WI. 54902
