Popeyes

Mr. Popeye chicken on LaBrea /​Centinela
I will not visit your store again. The Tuesday special is the highest in the city $ 2.49 and you have nerve not to included a biscuit and you charge .49 cent for a person to use a credit/​debit card. Did you forget that you are not the only person selling CHICKEN !!!

This is in a very sketchy neighborhood and has all types of people that I would not invite over for dinner. But inside is actually pretty inviting and clean. My order is right and hot so kudos. The staff seem friendly and very concerned about their speed of service so I am more than happy with my experience.

My first time there, ordered a $ 9.99 special that I saw on their website via Unilocal.This was a Mobile coupon, the woman wanted me to print it while I’m presenting it like it says to do… she said she will accept it this one time like she is doing me a favor! You can mix 5 pieces, I asked for 3 legs, 2 breasts. Said I can only order 1 breast or I will have to pay extra… one word RUDE but the food was great, service not so good!

I ate here last night around 1am and purchased a number 8 (5-​piece chicken strip combo) to share with my partner. Everything was good, until I found a piece of metal wire imbedded in my chicken strip. It made me think what other foreign objects are in that deep fryer.

Worst Popeyes location ice ever been to. They got my order wrong after waiting in line for 10mins plus. They charge you extra to use a debit card, the homeless are inside digging out of the trash can. Always busy here. Bottom line if you have time to kill come here cause u will never return.

This is the worst effin Popeyes ever. They need 0 stars. 1 the drive thru line is always long no matter what time you get here. This is one of the busiest Popeyes on the weekends you would think have more than 2 people here at night but of course their too cheap to do that. 2. They never have BBQ sauce I ordered my food and ask for BBQ sauce at the speaker and she didn’t say they didn’t have any so when I got my food I asked for some again and she said we didn’t have any. And I was upset because if you didn’t have any you should have said it at the speaker because I would have ordered something else because I don’t eat chicken tenders with any other sauce. So the next time I came I asked before I ordered if they had BBQ sauce and she said «yes» with an attitude like I was asking a dumb question. The food is always good that’s the only reason I go back but the customer service is horrible. Horrible horrible horrible!!! The line took so long tonight I listen to 12 while songs on the new drake album.

Long lines no matter what time of the day, since they are open ²⁴⁄₇ 365. The quality food is really good for a fast food place, prices are a bit higher then other fast food, I really enjoy coming here on a late night.

Great food but the owner is nuts if he thinks its legal to charge a fee to use a Debit card… yes a debit card not a credit card!
There is no fee for using a debit card anywhere. stop charging customers this bulls***.

Wack ass workers. Went there today b4 work do get my lunch for today and get my Daughter some food. First, the drive thru window speaker sucks you can hardly hear the lady. So I ordered a 3 piece tender meal and a 5 piece tender meal spicy well to my surprise I got two 3 piece meals smh but of course they charged me to the 5 piece. I had already left. I tried calling and the number is disconnected wtf really. You have one dam job fry chicken and count the pieces. Dam you can even do that right.

This Popeyes sucks. They constantly mess up your order and offer you no apologies when you have to go back and inform them of their error. I have even attempted to call the location at the number listed on the receipt but that number is obviously just there for appearance because you call and there is no answer. This is unacceptable. They need to take their time and get my order right!!!

They forgot my honey for my biscuits. I asked for it twice. Noticed this too late, after I got home.
The counter area is all heavily glassed in. My wife and I could only think about how scary it would be to eat there in evenings.
These things said, the food was very good — typical Popeye’s quality.

Three stars for being close and the food is always good. Zero stars for the fact that the employees have no training and don’t have any home training. Not only could I hear the person working the drive thru talking shit about customers but she COMPLETELY got my order wrong. I ordered a two piece with fries and a biscuit. Got home and I had a ONE PIECE with NO FRIES and a biscuit. How hard is it? Seriously? And fast food workers want $ 15 an hour!!! For what?! Not paying attention just like they did in school!!! Get out of here! Louisiana fried chicken is better, cheaper and they won’t get your order wrong. Definitely going to have to think twice when I get a craving for fried chicken

Every time I’ve been to this location it was a good experience. They remodeled which is a good thing but even before the remodel they kept it clean. The customer service is great also Zulma.(I know her name from the receipt) is great as well as the other Latina lady that’s normally working the register during lunch (she kept leaving when I was trying to read her tag). The food has always been fresh.

I was introduce to this chain business by a friend that worked there and I thought it was the best chicken ever, over the years I feel is going down the drain. I don’t know if is the location or the employees but it just isn’t what it was before. I used to enjoy going in and hanging out with friends while having lunch and now, the employees are rude, it’s like they purposely give you the wrong order. Please check your order before you leave if you are picking up or they claim you order something else and just give you all kinds of excuses instead of apologizing for the mistake. The food is purely batter and almost no chicken, it’s gotten very bad, I know it’s take out food but it wasn’t like that before! The place looks like you are in jail. Not welcoming at all. It’s sad but I think it’s time to discover another place. Very disappointing!

SLOWEST DRIVE THRU EVER! they messed up my order they’re way too slow and they give you attitude on top of it all. This place sucks! I got home my order was wrong tried calling about 5 times and they never answered

why is so hard to get an order right these days… i love going back to work with with the wrong order, it turns me on. i guess it really is my fault for not doing their job and checking my order, my bad! oh and if you ever try to call to let them know your are missing a bunch of food, dont bother because the line just rings and ring, i would have better luch being caller 100 for a radio station than getting through to them. shout out to you popeyes

Why did I go here? I know why, I wanted some of those ghost pepper wingettes. There pretty good at other locations. It just always seems like this chicken here has been under a heat light. Their friendly going through the drive thru. I appreciate that but, the chicken didn’t seem fresh and the bag had a big grease stain once I reached home. I know it’s greasy but not saturated

This location makes me wanna cuss.
They’re forever putting spicy/​mild chicken in the bag when we didn’t ask for it. It supposed be mild unless we specify spicy and vice versa! They’re also pros at giving us dark meat when we asked for white…
The time before today’s visit, they totally botched the order. We didn’t receive what we asked for and the food wasn’t fresh. Wasted money. This time… Once again. They put spicy chicken tenders in the bag when we asked for mild… The fries were OLD … There was dark meat (2 thighs + leg) in the bag. We asked for Spicy white meat (1 breast + 2 wings).
I honestly don’t think they even care about getting the order right. Consistently going through the motions and asking «May I take your order?» …but getting the order TOTALLY wrong, is a redundant, ridiculous practice that I care not to engage in anymore. More dead presidents wasted… (When did money start growing on trees??)
I’ve thought about contacting corporate, but that may not even make a difference. It’s past time to find a new Popeye’s location to visit.
This place definitely got some free cash out of us. :-/

So I go thru the drive through for my aunt at 930pm today. I place my order and ask the gentleman while ordering can he make the food fresh. He never acknowledges what I asked him instead he just tells me to pull around to the window. I get to the window I give my debit card and he gives me the food. I ask him for condiments since he didn’t offer me any. I tell him what I want then this man had the nerves to say is that it. But from the jump he had an attitude and was very rude. Now I remember why I hate going to places in the hood and I why I Wld rather cook at home rather than deal with people’s attitudes all the time. SMH!!!

Some people think Popeyes is the best thing next to a tropical island. In my opinion the food taste more like a tropical hurricane. I ordered the 3 piece chicken tenders with beans and rice. well they called it beans and rice although I did not see 1 bean. maybe it should be called bean sauce and rice. (now this is my experience) The chicken tasted horrible that I gave the left overs to my dog who eventually gagged it up. it’s true. I will not return.. More power to the people who love it.

Food good customer service VERY INCONSISTENT as like today with a cashier named COURTNEY… long story short she seemed in lala land not all present and needs to learn to listen better.
I’m done.

Awful experience top-​to-​bottom: Service, Food, Packaging. This Popeye’s has the wife, toddler and daddy (me) and our stomachs worse off on this otherwise pleasant Saturday evening. Never again. Ever!
Service — Drive-​thru girl repeated our order then proceeded to snap at us for not catching that she had excluded from her rundown the cole slaw we had ordered. «That’s why I reviewed your order for accuracy,» she bristled. I can forgive that because the cole slaw was just about the only edible thing in our order.
Food — YUCKERS! The chicken wings, chicken nuggets and newly released Bayou Buffalo Wicked Chicken (it was wicked alright!) were all — each & every last one — cold, rubbery and tasteless. We actually felt guilty for feeding our bodies this «food» that was so far from fresh it made us wonder whether this was some sort of sham Popeye’s. Love that chicken from Popeye’s? We once did. Now? Haaaated it!
Packaging — Cajun fries were buried at the bottom of the greased-​out paper container bowl thingy (not as pictured on the drive-​thru board with the fries neatly arranged next to the chicken like friendly acquaintances, not lustful freaks). This, too, was a barely forgivable infraction because the fries were fairly tasty. To add insult to injury, our bag contained NO condiments, NO utensils, and NO straws. Do I have to ask for EVER-​EE-​THING?
Not sure if this place sucks arse because it’s in the hood, and hey, it’s A-​OK to meet a low bar in the hood. Or, like I said, they’re just a sham operation selling overpriced food with underpaid workers who couldn’t give two snots about customer satisfaction.

Feeling ripped off— drove into the Centinela & LaBrea location.
Ordered the dinner specials— sign says deal includes drinks— asked about the drinks was told it was an extra $ 1.10 — told that I should have asked for the Combo
Hate to sound petty but hate getting ripped off even more.
Order carefully!!!

I love Popeye’s. Their fried chicken (spicy batter) is delicious. The mashed potatoes are to die for… with little bits of meat in the gravy… *heaven* Their cajun rice is also delicious and full of meat. So flavorful! I also love their biscuits! So warm and flaky!
This location is the closest to where I live, but it’s still a commute. Worth it though! The staff are really friendly and helpful and I like places where the employees have good attitudes.

Five stars for the fried chicken and biscuits. I’d give the biscuits more than five stars if there were more than five stars to give.
One star deducted for the venue. They have bulletproof windows in front of the cashiers. Which might tend to make me want to deduct even more than one star except they clearly aren’t all that worried about a holdup as there are giant holes in the plastic at eye level. So all the windows do is make it difficult to pay and hear the cashier.
The most crowded I’ve seen the place is Mondays. 99 cents for two pieces of dark meat, $ 2.49 for two piece white, 99 cents for 2 biscuits. Did I forget to mention that if you only get one thing here, get two biscuits? Or maybe a dozen. They hold up pretty well in the fridge if you make sure to heat them up in the toaster oven. Don’t even think about microwaving them.

Oh What the hell, it’s fried chicken from a Chain!
But it’s finger licking good.
This place is probably the best fried chicken chain place you can go to.
They were having some 2 for 1 deal… Or 5 for 4.99 i’m not sure it was good to eat late night when nothing else was available.
Granted this place is located in the heart of some of the finest privately owned fried chicken makers, when nothing else is open, i’d run here for some greasy, crispy goodness.
It’s a bit of a seedy neighborhood, so get your chicken, roll up your window and get out of there asap.
