I don't expect much from these types of fast food places. I do, however expect the chicken at a fried chicken place, to be fully cooked and hopefully hot if I'm dining in. Cold mashed potatoes, pink chicken, dirty place and clearly NO SAFE FOOD HANDLERS in the kitchen. Also overpriced! This place is gonna poison people!! 🤢

December 17, 2024

Pink chicken, workers sticking fingers in the Mac n cheese for a taste then putting the lid on for the next customer. None of the food was hot. I pray I'm still alive tomorrow after eating here 🤢

December 17, 2024

This place is literally soooo slow. Waiting for 15 mins is fine, but I had to wait for like 30 mins, and my other friends say the same thing too. There is usually only 2 people working and they won't even look at you. Hogan court popeyes is deff managed so much better.

December 14, 2024

I arrived at 6:50pm, was next to be served in line. I wasn't acknowledged and my order wasn't taken until 7:08pm. At 7:30 I was asked by an employee what my order was. I told her, and was told there would be another nineteen minutes for mac and cheese. Since by this point I had already been in the restaurant for forty minutes and someone was in the car waiting for me, I said I'd take something else. Everyone who was there when I was had unacceptably long waits. Putting three pieces of chicken in a box shouldn't take that long. If there's a wait, the customer should be told when they're ordering so they have the option of ordering something else. Customers should be at least told when arriving that someone will be with them soon, rather than be left there standing. The food was very good, but the mismanaged way I had to get it wasn't worth it.

I ordered online and selected a pick up time. I arrived a few minutes past my pick up time just to be sure it was ready. It wasn't. However, it was a 10 minute wait. Chicken was great, Chicken sandwich not bad but the onion rings were soggy. Maybe should have pkg'd the onion rings when they did the chicken. Anyhow customer service was top notch as always has been in my experience. Just need to get a tiny bit better on having orders ready that are online ordered.

★★★

As with so many of these types of places. The quality has spiralled since opening. Now they hardly put any sauce on anything. Seems to use smaller Pieces and tastes old. Not a fan of this location.

Chicken is really good! Unreal how large the pieces are. Cajun fries aren't spicy at all...I thought they would be. Mac and cheese is horrible. Slimy, bland absolutely no flavor ughh. Definitely will return for Chicken and try the popcorn shrimp. But I will buy or make my own sides instead of ordering a family meal. Staff was clean, friendly. It is a Super busy location, kudos to the staff. They were going non stop.

December 18, 2024

Every time I come here I always wait so long and they take so long to prepare and they never tell me when my order is ready and they re very slow so I don t recommend this

good food but wouldn t give me chicken 15 - 20 mins before closing and said they were closing when I went in so now I m hungry.

October 22, 2024

12 piece boneless wings (wanted bone in but they didn t have any) 12 piece tenders, $79. No drinks. Store was filthy, employees hardly spoke, not personable at ALL. I didn t notice all the chicken sitting under hot lamps as I was trying to make sense of the menu, what was included and so on to notice until after the fact or I wouldn t have ordered at all. They took our name for the order, but didn t call or name two minutes later when it was ready (grabbed from the bottom of the pile and thrown into a box) instead kept yelling an order number, but didn t tell us our number. Food was cold and super dry. I didn t bother saying anything, with the experience ordering I couldn t imagine how it d be with a complaint. Seriously would not recommend, between the cost vs product received, service, atmosphere I can t even believe there were lots of other people in there. I assume it was also their first time. Kid-friendliness: Did not see a kids menu, it s also one of the digital menus that changes every 10 seconds so may have missed it.

Very low quality products, but it is deep fried chicken trying to survive in a healthier world, however thats not the issue when you pay $7 for a large mashed potatoes and it is served only half full is my issue.

Seemed a little unorganized for supper rush. They pulled us out of line and served everyone else, so we sat in the parking lot for 30 minutes. They were nice and the food was fresh, but I think they forgot about us. I had to go in to get it. They were still making it? It kind of defeated the point of going in the drive-through to not get rained on. Parking: The parking lot is crazy when its busy.

The the quality of fried chicken here is very good. Overall service is good. For atmosphere, its a pretty small space and okay for a quick bite and go, New and very bright, a lot of foot traffic coming and going and standing around during busy times waiting for their meals.

February 22, 2024

Two strikes in a row that they messed up my Pick-up orders. Last time they didnt pack my smashed potato, today they swapped my gravy to macaroni. And it will always take you great effort to claim your credit as well! Also, no napkins or settings at all. Wondered how they have assumed me eating my smashes with my bare hands. Use the chickens instead, I suppose.

Took 30+ minutes to get an order of wings and 3 tenders. Wings were just left on the counter for most of the time we were waiting for the food. upon opening the food at home it was soggy and gross. I had to drive back to the store to get a refund. Not only is this food more expensive than most other take-out chains, this franchise is POORLY run. Save yourself the gas, time, and frustration of someone being able to mess up making a piece of fried chicken.

Was in the city for an event and a friend had suggested finding a popeyes for lunch. I had never been there but love chicken so we found the sackville location. The store was clean and inviting the staff was friendly and truly appeared to be happy tp be there. The food was unbelievable and a supervisor even approached our table before we left to ask if everything was OK and if we needed anything. Was the best experience eating out for as long as I can recall. Will definitely make the 45 min drive just to eat there again.

This was a first time visit for myself and my friend and we were so impressed! Our first observation was how many staff and management were behind the counter ready to serve customers with a smile on their face. You could tell they enjoyed their job. The chicken burger and fries was the best We ever had. The restaurant was very clean and bright. This is also the only fast food restaurant that I have been to where the manager came out and asked us how our meal was. Owners should be very proud of this team. It was an amazing experience thank you

First time here, very underwhelmed. Had the chicken sandwich, it was average at best and barely warm, the Cajun fries were good. Very small seating area so you most likely have to eat in the parking lot like i did. The music is way too loud, nobody could hear the lady calling out thier names, she had to come around the counter every time. (Again, not a big place, only 5 tables, should be able to hear) the staff are friendly, really the only good thing. Wont be back.

So about a year ago I reviewed the Popeyes in the Larry Uteck area - what a huge disappointment. So when one opened near me I thought Id give them a fair shake. Damn good choice! Everything was better, portions, service, and quality. Definitely on the pricy side but they redeemed Canadian Popeyes for me (US Popeyes was always pretty great haha).
