I ordered classic and they gave me spicy and the pieces were the scrawniest I've ever received from any chicken restaurant. Fire the cook. Fire the chicken picker. Maybe 5 small bites of meat off of two pieces. Horrible read more

My coworkers and I decided to have lunch here because we were all craving Popeyes for some juicy chicken. Unfortunately the chicken was a miss. Some were dry which was the original pieces and the spicy pieces look undercooked. We did not want to request new chicken because we waited a while to place the first order. Other than that the fries and the biscuits were great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service was good and that Popeyes is super clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If it wasn't for the chicken, we would have had an awesome lunch time there. read more

Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen - 12 PC Chicken Meal - Fast Food Near Me - Oceanside, California

Came right after dinner, ordered 12 piece boneless wings honey lemon pepper, 1/4 lb popcorn shrimp, rice and peas, fries, blueberry lemonade, and mango lemonade $45 all together I did not enjoy the taste of the honey lemon pepper sauce, it tastes like chemicals so I took it out of the saucy dish to just try it with ranch and the ranch did a good job of covering it up. I didn't like the blueberry lemonade either, it didn't taste like blueberries and it wasn't very sweet. The mango one was better. The "boneless wings" were just tenders that had been torn apart. They were dry and stale tasting. It wasn't good at all unfortunately. Very very dry The popcorn shrimp were good and the fries are always yummy. Their beans have an insane amount of liquid smoke in them, I couldn't even finish them. We sat the speaker of the drive thru for about 5 minutes until I said "hello?" And the guy said give me one moment. After they took my order the food came out fast but it wasn't fresh, I would of waited for freshly fried chicken and french fries Everything was stale I won't be coming back here read more

I like this location, but the crew needs to look at the orders of what the customer wants! I ordered a four piece chicken meal. I ordered 1 breast, two thighs, and a wing. I received 3 thighs and a leg. The chicken was good, but it's not what I ordered. And when I pay extra for what I want, I should get what I ordered. read more

I came here for the first time and the service was quick. And the food was good! The chicken was crispy and salty. Good food.

Zero stars. Don't expect them to get your order right. Or even understand what you are ordering. They messed up a simple order, got the side for a combo wrong, and argued with me that combos don't include biscuits when clearly stated on the menu they include a biscuit. When asked why they don't specify which combos include a biscuit, I was told "I didn't write the menu". Definition of false advertising read more

What's to say? We've been giving business to Popeyes for about 20 years. Chicken & sides always on point. Only recommendation would be to make sure your front door is unlocked at the time your store is supposed to be open. read more

The manager Pedro was awesome. His professionalism and customer service was top notch.

Meh, the quality and service has suffered a bit here so I need to update my review. During and immediately after the Lockdown this Popeye's location was super convenient and the food and service were the bomb! Extra care was put into the orders by the workers and the chicken was always fresh and hot. Fast forward to today when I dropped over $40 in the drive-thru to pick up lunch for me and my surfing bro. Two side items that I paid for were completely missing from the order, the cashier was grumpy, unfriendly, and she didn't give me my receipt. What's more the chicken was dried out, slightly mushy, and tasted like it had been reheated from the day before. I mean I know it's fast-food and all but you're also paying a premium price for this food. This location really has to step up its game, especially with Dave's Hot Chicken, Angry Chickz, and Zzang Chicken now open close by. Honorable mention also goes to Main Chick Hot Chicken and Felix's BBQ for their scrumptious Alabama Fried Chicken. All are better choices when compared to the mediocre fried bird we got here today! read more

If there is a zero star, that is what I would rate this place. We ordered 10 classic signature chicken (2 pc wings classic, 6pc thigh classic, 2 pc breast classic) All online with sides and biscuits. Once I arrived at the window for pick up, manager Gabby told me that there are no classic chickens - just spicy ones. So we were left with no choice but to take what they offer. She asked me to wait at the parking spot up front. Once she delivered the order, I inspected the whole bag and asked her if the chicken parts that they gave us is what we wanted - she told us they don't have chicken breats and she gave us what thighs, wings and legs. Again not what we wanted! Once we arrived home to eat dinner - the beans and rice side we ordered was noticed to be old and dry! We specifically indicated we want ketchup with the order but the manager named Gabby only gave us hot sauce. But she said there was ketchup in the bag. Seriously! This branch needs shaping up! Customers are not animals and we are not to be treated like one! The manager was not even apologetic, no sorry, no compensation. Seriously! read more

I was trying hard to choose a "junk food" place because I needed a quick meal. I chose Popeye's because it's close by. Skeptical that they could produce the right order, I went inside instead of the drive up. I ordered a 4 - four - piece large dinner which has a leg, wing, thigh and breast. A very sweet, young girl helped me (great service) and a new employee fulfilled my order. I should have checked, but it was bundled nicely in its bag. When I got home, I only got 3 pieces. 2 thighs and a ratty looking leg. I was so mad because there was no breast, no wing, and the leg had its shortcomings. My gal was also mad that she took the box back to the shop with the receipt. She was met with a luke warm response. They gave her a breast, but kept the leg and did not give her a wing. I still only got three pieces when I paid for a 4 piece dinner. It was a lame response and bad customer service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is clean and the staff is nice enough.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But it's bad when your customer arrives home with a totally wrong order. It makes one think twice when choosing a fast food restaurant. read more

Went in before closing they had no chicken sandwiches left but I got the tenders anyway since I was already there, they overcharged me on this order. I got charged $24 for 6 tenders probably double what it was supposed to be. Don't go here especially at closing time they will rob you! 0 stars! read more

This has has be the worst Popeyes ever they try to upsell you on and what you get is mediocre at best

Food poisoning. Spicy chicken was the only thing I ate that day. I recognized Spicy Chicken exiting my body from both ends read more

Was busy when I went in but Fabian and the other guys had the food flowing! Thanks for the good food. Appreciate it

Multiple times I have been here before I have to get to work and they forget one or two of my items. You can only imagine how I felt when I spent $30 on the 6 tender 12 wing combo and I did not have my 6 tenders in my bag or the cheesecake I got with my order too. I hope they take some time to improve in basic attention to detail to expedite the "fast food" process read more

Terrible wait!!! Ordered my meal at 8:26, order 70071. I didn't receive it till 8:52..... 5 piece tenders and fries They had me pull into the front to wait for my food. The guy who took my order came out after 15 min and said sorry they're working on it. Ten min later I walk in to cancel my order and he rushes to put it in the box and says "sorry for the wait" First and last time eating at Popeyes read more

Had two bad similar visits in a row. This review is about my most recent. Went around 820-30pm. Ordered 5 piece tenders large combo, 2 chicken wraps classic, chicken dippers, and 2 lemonades for roughly $50. Got the drinks and was told to drive to the front. Waited at the front and saw a few other people waiting too. Waited about 15 min before i went inside to check on my order. The order printer had 7-8 tickets hanging from the printer and 4 employees in the kitchen. It took a few minutes before i was offered assistance and i let them know im waiting on a drive through order and they left to check out the situation. My order hasnt been touched yet and the order pad said their average order time was 15 minutes. I was told they did not have spicy tenders and i would have to wait 6-7 minutes for it to come out, i told them just give me classic. The person who i believe was the manager went to get my order together and i over heard her yell at the fry cook. It looked like the fry cook dropped the ball because the only chicken available was classic. No spice or flavor could be seen anywhere, i would have thought i was at KFC. As the manager was getting the rest of my order she told me they were out of dippers abd i would have to wait 10 minutes. At this point ive already waited 25 minutes, i did not expect this trip to take so long and I had frozen stuff in my car. They told me i could replace it with anything on the menu so i just took the boneless chicken wings and left. I go home to check out the bag and they didnt give me the large sides the gave me small and the boneless chicken wings didnt look anything close to what was advertised on their menu. Not worth waiting 30+ minutes for some bland chicken. Ill have to go to a different popeyes next time or KFC, they wont do me dirty like these guys. Last time i went over a month ago same issue with wait times and no spicy chicken. read more

Terrible! I am standing outside this Popeyes @ 9:03pm , they're listed lobby hours say close at 10pm and they clocked the doors. This is so annoying and unacceptable since I had not order through the drive through and they told me to park in front of of the store because the food wasn't ready, saying they would bring it out. Been waiting for almost 15 minutes so I go to walk in to ask where my food is and again the door is locked. I get the attention of the manager ( I assume- she was the only one wearing a grey shirt) and she gives me a X sign with her hands then proceeds ignores. Finally had to drive back through the drive through for my food. Never had a bad experience at a Popeyes in my life but I guess there's a first time for everything. Awful, lazy, terrible service!!! read more

This place is awful worst I've had -someone needs to call corporate office-left out my biscuit I called to speak with management stayed on hold forever I just hung up -chicken in the box couldn't see what one piece was it definitely wasn't a chicken leg I'll tell you that ..taste old and the guys says you come back on your next visit I don't think so , I don't even live here-this place should be shut down especially with all These bad reviews-I usually read reviews first and did not smh ....never again !! They deserve NO STARS- read more

Worst food I ever had , nothing is fresh , had the 2 PC with coleslaw , won't be back , very high prices , no quality.

Placed an order and they accepted it but now they are refusing to give my delivery drivers the order. Their store phone also is not in service. I think this store needs to hire people who actually want to do their job.... Why accept the order and payment then tell all of my drivers you are closed 30 mins before you actually supposed to be closed read more

Was told to move to front because order would take longer than usual. 6 minutes later received cold food. Cold Fries not even warm. Unsatisfied with this service. Workers were slow. read more

Happy to have a Popeyes so close to coastal Oceanside. Clean, fast and accurate. I was shocked at the customer service - you could feel the training and intention. Very genuine. I wish the speaker box wasn't 2 cars away from the window, not a great drive thru design but nevertheless it ensured our food was given to us hot. You can get country or spicy chicken. They have sandwiches, Mac n cheese, beans, coleslaw, biscuits, tenders and family meals. A variety of fountain sodas including Hi-C. Welcome to the neighborhood Popeyes! read more

Rip off. I spent 32.00 on 8 tiny pieces of chicken and coleslaw. I have never seen 2 chivken legs this small. The thighs were also tiny. The breasts were also tiny. The wings were the only thing of normal size. The sign said this meal would feel 3 to 4 people. That would be true if the people eating were children. My wife is petite and she ate 4 pieces of chicken. I ate the other 4. The plain chicken was over cooked. The spicy was actually good. However the legs were no more than 4 inches long and three bites worth.The thighs were 4 bites and done. I could go buy 4-5 whole rotisserie chickens at the grocery for what I paid 32.00 for at Popeyes. Don't waste your money on this place ever read more

Sara the manager convinced me not to trust her leadership or her staff. I ordered multiple sides of mashed potatoes and gravy that came with no gravy. It bummed out everyone I bought them for as we had been talking about our orders for hours while returning on a roadtrip and her store getting it wrong was like giving hungry people who ordered a sandwich and were given only slices of bread. But Sara didn't seem to care when I uncharacteristically returned the next day with the untouched potatoes sans gravy. She rolled her eyes in a "not again" way and she just shrugged her shoulders when she said she wouldn't correct the order. I've worked in hospitality for 30 years and recognize professional apathy and managerial incompetence when it shows itself and Sara's behavior showed me I cannot trust her to meet other professional expectations like food safety and customer service. I'm not feeding my family whatever this careless manager is letting slip out. read more

I was in the area and was really hungry so I decided to stop by. There wasn't any customers in the dining room which I thought was strange. I get to the register and a young guy with a lot of hair helped me. He was great and on top of things, I told him what I wanted and he suggested a combo which was a better deal. I was so hungry I almost ordered everything on the menu. I ordered the popcorn shrimp combo and two drumsticks with a sweet tea. Omg it was very good and the sweet tea was delicious!!!! Can't wait to go back!!!! read more

Well, last time I blasted this Popeye's location because they were terrible. Bad enough that I haven't wanted to come back. But as fate would have it, I was in the area, and I really wanted some chicken and decided to gamble. This time (7:30ish) was different from the last though and I have I have to give them credit because it was a great experience. Ordered nuggets and tenders and both were lightly crispy and hot and very juicy on the inside. Fries were hot, lightly crispy and flavorful on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Biscuit was hot and lightly flaky. In short, food was as good as it gets, the drive thru line was short, the visit at the window was short as well and the staff looked motivated and took care of business. I was quite pleased and will be back! read more

The food tastes amazing, if you ever get the right order. 4 visits, not once was the order right. This is it though, I'm done after today. After ordering, the person repeats my order and I have to correct him. Then because it was so far off, asked to double check. He rolls his eyes and repeats my order... I said no, that's still not right. Eventually we get it right. Then my Order comes up and I check it myself but as I was doing so on the counter they ask me to move, this is where it's my fault. Head to the car to just check my order and nope it's wrong. Go back in and they won't correct it. Fuuuuuuu** this place. read more

I normally don't eat at Popeye's, so I'm not sure if this is the norm. I went through the drive thru today and ordered a chicken sandwich combo with medium french fries. When I drove away I noticed my fries (about a handful of them) were just tossed in the bag. They were not in a container or bag themselves. Is this something normal that is done at Popeye's? read more

fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me; fool me three times, "forget" the peace sign... I love Popeyes hence I try my luck for three separate occasions hoping for a different outcome but I don't know where they find these backwaters citterns that work night shift, staff service is terribly lacking. How has such a popular fast food chain managed to not improve their customer service even a tiny amount despite being so popular. read more
