    2 piece? I'm not waiting 20 minutes for a snack, need at least 3 pieces (preferably all dark meat).

    I go all dark meat for sure. Before the sandwich, it didn't take that long. Your point still stands.

    Drove 15-20 minutes to go to Popeyes and didn’t get it. There were probably 40 cars in the drive thru wrapped around into a strip center parking lot, and at least 50 white people inside. No thank you.

    On the way home from visiting gfs family. Stop at a random ass gas station and notice there is a Popeyes Taco Bell Pizza Hut combo restaurant. Strangely nobody in line or even inside. My heart is racing as I ask if they have the sandwich. “Yes sir we sure do” walk out with 2 spicys with no wait. :bzzzz:

    Sandwich is very good, better than CFA? I say yes. Shake Shack’s Chicken Shack is much more similar. This is a different experience than what you get at cfa.

    Driving back home to Atlanta and had to take a piss. Saw a sign for a Popeye's so I said fuck it let's see how this goes. The location was in a gas station. They don't have a drive thru at this location. Walked in to a line of 3 people. Ordered and got my food in less than 10 minutes. Very damn good sandwich.

    The regular is good but the spicy mayo puts it over the top. Can't ever see myself ordering the regular again given the choice.

    This is risky. Many folks who said this last time ended up missing out. The odds that Popeyes fucks this up again and has to put another halt on the sandwich are...not insignificant. It’s kinda their thing.

    I think it's common for gas station/truck stop locations to be a little higher on fast food. I assume its bc rent is higher bc the gas station brings in foot traffic for them.
