I ordered shrimp, it was taste less and uncooked. I asked them to replace it, but still it was same. Totally waste of money

I bought two special meals yesterday, Tuesday. I have never eaten such bad fried chicken, which is not fresh and very dry.

October 31, 2024

This is the worst Popeyes! They simply do not know what they’re doing. And they do not follow food hygiene rules…I watched while a customer brought a piece of chicken back and the employee put it in the tray to sell again until another customer told her she could not do that. I asked for my money back and never returned to this location again.

Good service from all the employees on Sunday night. They were respectful and helpful even though there was a delay in the food being ready and provided us updates on the time left and then even came to our table to give us the food directly. Food quality (burgers, fries and chicken) was also good.

August 14, 2024

Another example of poor hiring. None of the staff care. I asked for my sandwich to be made fresh and it was somehow breaded, deep fried, and assembled in 4 minutes. Anyone who’s ever made ice before can tell you it takes longer than 4 minutes to fully cook a piece of chicken in a deep fryer. I guess cheap labour pays for itself.

My mother had never tried Popeyes. We were feeling hungry, so I grabbed 2 specials, and she's hooked! Chicken is hot and fresh even after driving home and eating there. Mashed potatoes with gravy is the best. Staff are extremely helpful, friendly, and courteous!!!

August 2, 2024

Manager is a black lady she is creating her own policy. For example I ordered 4 piece plater they gave me the fries in the same box with the chicken, any other location I went to they would always put in separate box. Also, they gave me a medium drink where I believe i am supposed to get L drink. When i asked them gently they were so rude and one of the indian girls she put fries is dine in box but very less and threw on the counter said “there you go”. We do not expect this kind of behaviour! Hope head office will address this. Note: i do not want any gift card or free meal just rectify your employees please.

As per the staff the company has the policy to leave the water running ALL THE TIME to clean the utensils. There are many ways to clean utensils. Waste water is wrong, world is getting droughts. We have to take ownership of what is happening in the world and act responsibly.

This franchise owner should have his this store taken away from him !! You can tell he s super cheap ! You walk in, barely any ac on, all of the booths and chairs are ripped and have duct tape on them ! Buy new chairs !!! This is your establishment, have some pride ! Oil is old, had that old oil taste and because of it, everything tastes gross .When you order a combo, they barely give you any fries. That s the problem nowadays with these franchise owners, if you re going to buy a franchise, do it properly or don t do it at all!

The chicken thighs were so juicy.. i wanted to cry. The meat on the drumstick was very thick and fat. Youbknow.. chunky chickens peri peri is no match. Yet alone Safas fry chicken. If you want thick and juicy, this is where to come get juicy chicken. The server was very approachable and catered to my menu specifications quite well. I requested for good chicken.. se said.. Ill give you good juicy fry chicken i waited maybe 3 -4 minutes.. and I got nice thick juicy juicy chicken. The best . I saw there was a few skinny drumsticks.. but they made sure to use the tongs to seperate from the good quality and the least desirable. This will be my number one juicy chicken place. Ill add this also.. the drumsticks are the best... I usually like to test good drum stick by tasting and sucking the bone.. and then making my way to the meat part. All i can say is .. the drumsticks are very juicy. I love it.. very thick

The food was good except for 1 rude employee who spoiled our dinning experience, not just with the customers but other staff too

Ordered chicken, wow, got the 2 chicken sandwiches and 8 nuggets over 20 minutes later, with no warning of a long wait time. Asked for a coke zero, saw the cashier fill up my drink, I asked her if its coke zero, she says yes, confirmed it was normal coke with the manager.... Normally love Popeyes, hated this experience.. Sorry girls, but this review is for you...

This Danforth location has restored our faith in Popeyes. We talked with Bhoomika on the phone as we had a couple questions prior to ordering. Bhoomika was very nice and polite. She followed our introductions perfectly. The food and service from this location was excellent. Thank u Bhoomika for ur excellent service. We will only order from ur location in the future. Our last two orders prior where from the Kingston Rd location and they where terrible.

You can try ordering ahead, good luck getting anyone to acknowledge you when you get inside the store(later than the order stated)...and then you can wait for them to prepare your order

The Indian female employee at the register is very rude and unprofessional, she gave us old fries that were limp and not fresh and were clearly fried in old oil, and she charged an extra dollar for what we ordered from the original price. The original price was $4.99, but she changed it to $5.99 .

December 22, 2023

I got the 2 piece combo it was horrible and my stomach went upset.

December 22, 2023

Bikes are not allowed. Seriously ? It was just a matter of a take out which would hardly take a couple of minutes. Was Popeyes going to take the responsibility if my bike got stolen? Worst place to work as well. They will fire you if you are not the store managers favorite.

The attitude is garbage . Coleslaw salad smelt like absolute garbage, once I tried it I had to throw it out instantly. It was most definitely expired so no doubt the chicken was and on top of that it had hair in it and not just one piece but all of it. Never thought I d leave such review on a restaurant/ fast food joint page but everything was garbage. Never returning. I wouldn t even leave a one star if it were an option.

I wonder if the the owner have ever worked in the store to understand the amount of stress his/her employees are going through due to NO COOLING in the vicinity. I will not blame the employees a penny if they are rude or running out of breath!! The place is a total sauna during summer!!! Its time to wake up Mr.owner!! I would suggest employees not to hesitate at all before reaching out for help!!!

The food was great as per usual. I had the oppurtunity of reviewing 3 free meals. All specials and the food was serve hot , fresh and delicious. I do wish that their restaurant could be renovated. It doesnt really accompany a family setting which is disappointing. Its moreless a place for bachelors. I would like for there to be more happy Customer service Reps. But when it comes to the quality of the food.. they make such fat , thick and juicy chicken. Its so yummy. The regular chicken. Is very very very! Juicy. Im usually a spicy investor, but the regular 7piece .. is just oh so scrumdeliyumcious! After I finished my meal you should have seen how thick I got. I felt Good! Definitely will recommend this location . Plus inside is so cozy...Great Pitstone if your on a road trip.

Stop giving attitudes to your customers. Tried to Redeem my app offer but the they didn t have the items exactly as shown in the offer. All store employees need to be educated on how to compensate customers. If I am paying for a 10, I am supposed to get a 10, you can not simply give me a 9 and walk away.

I found this location to be clean, food is good and if they have the item cooked already quite fast. If not ready made you have to wait for them to make it for you, but worth the wait as its fresh. Staff is friendly and helpful. I had some questions about certain products and the lady had no problem helping me out. (She seemed like she was the owner/manager. Her interaction with other customers was also very friendly, helpful. There was a younger girl behind the counter who came out to help a customer who was in a wheelchair who needed help with something, went out of her way to make sure the customer got what she needed Their biscuits and biscuit sandwiches are awesome, really enjoyed them. Chicken was properly cooked (have had issues at other locations) This location can get quite busy at times, its definitely a popular place

But when I asked for spicy chicken they told me it s finished not ready to cook because it s 10.15 PM and they want close at 11 PM. I really didn t like their approach and like an icing on the cake chicken turned to be undercooked. I only enjoyed one piece among three.
