Popeyes Service time

On 7/14/22 at approximately 6pm I pulled up to the drive thru at Popeyes in Lumberton, tx to place an order. At 6:30pm I was still waiting to place my order with no response from whomever was working the drive thru. We HV now sat here for45 min and had to pull up to the window to place our order. Their excuse was that they couldn't hear our vehicle. I drive a very loud truck.

Desired outcome: Something needs to be done about their courteousy and response time.

Popeyes Fries, Chicken Tenders

The Popeyes store # 13494

My husband and I normally don't eat out much for this very reason, we decided to treat ourselves with Popeyes and bought a chicken tender meal, with coleslaw, fries, mash potatoes, biscuit.

First, the chicken tenders were too hard, and not even warm, we live only 10 minutes from the establishment, the fries were not warm and tasted old, the biscuits was hard and not even warm. In otherwords the meal was terrible.

This is why we hardly eat out. Very dissappointed.

Desired outcome: Compensate my purchase of $20.07

Popeyes Accurate order taking

We go our local (Gambrills, MD) Popeyes once or twice a month, because we like the food.I wish I could say the same about the service. I usually order 2 thighs, extra spicy, and a large mashed potatoes, with gravy on the side. The servers rarely mess up the chicken order, but almost always put the gravy ON the potatos. (Note, my way a!lows me to have biscuits and gravy for breakfast.) I've grown tired of filing useless complaints with store management. Useless, because they replace that particular item, but on my next visit, the gravy is back on the potatos. Actually, THIS time, they gave me 3 thighs, instead of the 2 I had ordered, as well as putting gravy on the potatoes.

It may seem to you to be a trivial probem, and that's how I treated it at first. I ignored it. After several times, I complained to the store manager. Fat lot of good THAT did. I'm deriding now whether to go somewhere else and/or tell my local Nextdoor Neighborhood bulletin board, or Facebook if I can find their address.

Too bad. I really liked the chicken.

Desired outcome: Filling my order correctly.

Popeyes The 5 piece anniversay special, for 6.99

I visited the Popeye's at 67 Mercury Blvd. Hampton Va. on 6/29. and I ordered the 5 piece. The chicken was stacked up very high and I asked for the last chicken that was fried. The associate did give me more chicken but it was also old and dry. Those associates in that store are unprofessional and rude. I went to Popeye's at 5201 Mercury Blvd Hampton, Va. on 7/6/22 and asked for the same 5 piece. Their chicken was also piled up, old and dry! The associate said the special was over and I payed $6 for two pieces of chicken. I am disappointed in the quality of service and chicken, I have been receiving from Popeye's. The prices have gone up tremendously and not to receive good chicken is not acceptable. I forgot to take pictures of the other chicken but it looked the same. I am from New Orleans and the way the chicken look and taste is deplorable.

Desired outcome: I would like some quality tasting chicken but unfortunately that may be asking too much. I would like a refund and better training of the associates and managers to uphold the integrity and quality of Popeye's chicken.

Popeyes Rude Unprofessional Service

7-4-2022 6:30

Drive thru was not busy but woman taking orders was slow taking the order and after I placed an order for 2 Classic chicken sandwiches, she was rude and only said "is that all, pull up. I got to the drive thru window and a young man cashier said 2 Spicy sandwiches and I replied, "No it was just 2 classic". The woman in the back yelled it was 2 spicy and refused to give me the regular non-spicy. She was rude and her behavior was very unprofessional and unnecessary. The man at the register said we don't have any and so we left. This is not the 1st time we were treated poorly so we decided to file a complaint. Will not ever go back to this Popeye's to be treated like crap. I will not eat what Popeye's wants me too, I'll eat what I asked for

Desired outcome: Hire some employees that want to work and can have a little respect for the people who support your business. Your reputation is declining. Management must not be doing their job

Popeyes Quality of Food

Hello,

I ordered food from Popeyes in Beloit, WIsconsin on Saturday 2 July 2022. The time on the ticket is wrong and when I brought it to their attention they stated that the system is inoperable. On my way to work as a healthcare provider:

I ordered the following:

2 pieces of chicken (thighs)dark meat spicy

cajun rice

bisquit with 1 honey pack

Strawberry soda

1 apple pie.

Here is what I received:

2 pieces of white meat chicken very dry

fries

bisquit with no honey

orange soda

1 apple pie

I corrected the young man at the window and he stated he thought I said fries and when I shared it was cajun rice he said to keep the fries and handed me a small container. He corrected the drink to Fanta Strawberry.

When I opened the box

The chicken was dry, old, and cold

I did not consume the fries they were tossed

the cajun rice was very water and the rice was soggy

the bisquit was hard

the apple pie was cold

the fanta strawberry soda tasted like water.

When I attempted to resolve I was not piven my money back in the amount of ($12.11).

When I called I spoke with a Morgan on the same even because I had to woark a double she apologized and understood, and gave me a code for the next time I came in to redeem it.

I arrived on 4 July 2022 at 14:00 and spoke with Juan the General Manager and he stated he could not replace my money he could only give me a free meal. I shared it isn't free I paid for a service.

Could you please help

Natalie Edlebeck

Desired outcome: I would like a refund in the amount of ($12.11) and an apology for the service. Juan knew the bisquits was hard, the chicken was old.

I placed an online order for the $5.00 Shrimp Tackle Box Popeye's location at 7711 Annapolis Road, Lanham MD 20706. However, the employee stated that it was not offered at that particular location when I was never given any indication that the offer was not available. I was issued a refund but it is frustrating to place an order but it isn't available. I am hoping that this matter can be rectified.
