    Drive through wasn’t working so I called inside and they said they “were running behind and would be open at 2.” Now I know why I never come here. Not happy with my new chicken overlords so far.

    This sandwich might be better than Chic Fil A but their service isn't even close.

    My wife wanted to try one so I went and grabbed us lunch. I still can’t get past the non spicy patty. She felt the same way. Not as good as CFA. Sorry guys but that’s the final verdict. CFA still the best chicken sandwich.

    Sucks but not surprising. I don't think they could anticipate the increase in business like this. They aren't great in execution to begin with. Increase sales by 10x and it was bound to be a disaster.

    But go back at 2.

    CFA isn't spicy either. To each their own but I prefer the non-spicy Popeyes to CFA. Add the spicy sauce and whoo boy.

    Popeyes has neither good nor bad service, it's like roulette

    Sometimes you'll end up getting an extra fry and a biscuit. Other times you'll be missing your red beans and rice. But it evens out

    I have not yet tried this and I hope it is as good as advertised. I have a real soft spot for CFA because they used to give free sandwiches at ND tailgates and added in a coupon for another. Hard to shake that memory, and I love Popeyes.

    If Popeyes ever decides to make their filet spicy, it’s no debate. Their spicy chicken is 6.1, .9998.

    I'm honestly surprised they are using sauce to heat things up and not going with the already elite spicy tender formula they have.

    I'm still gonna like it. No pickles though.

    I'm pretty sure my location did spicy chicken, not just sauce.

    You're missing out on the pickles.

    PDQ is owned by the same company who runs Outback, so their sandwich is probably 1200 calories. They closed the one here in Mobile, replaced it with a Cookout :awesomeface:

    Line was long this time around so I figured we were good to go, but as it turns out they don’t have the sandwich yet at this location. This privileged white guy is not happy right now!
