Maybe I should finally just try this thing too

Ideal Popeyes order is definitely bone in spicy chicken + red beans and rice.

Guys, don't look at the nutritional information on them red beans and rice...

I can tolerate anything but sodium, there's probably an entire mine in them

Ha I finally go get one the wait was 10 minutes in the drive thru and it either is really average or they made it sloppily. Too much hot sauce made the whole thing taste too salty maybe the regular one would have been better.

That was underwhelming. Maybe I got this at the worst possible time, when they're still expecting crowds but aren't getting them? This place had stacks of packaged sandwiches under a heat lamp.

I tried both the normal and "spicy" one. They were fine but nothing extraordinary. Like 5/10, and I am extremely easy to please with fast food experiments. The spicy was not that different from the non-spicy.

Holy crap. Amazing.

Right?!?! Des Moines still doesn't have them

I finally got a spicy chicken this weekend. It was a good sandwich but I wasn't blown away.

Still haven’t had it

DaBigTrain · « **Reply #138 on:** May 19, 2023, 05:37:17 PM »

There’s a Popeyes in hays now

nicname · « **Reply #139 on:** May 19, 2023, 05:42:23 PM »

I’ve tried every major fast food spicy chicken sandy and Popeyes is by far the best. KFC is second. I get a Popeyes sandy w/ no sides once every two weeks on Tuesday in Salina.

The problem w Popeyes is that it’s very slow and often very busy. Luckily the Salina store is never busy when I pull up.

Sandwich is always crispy, huge chunk of breast meat. The spicy sauce is wonderful.

At peak freshness, you cannot beat Wendy's (add Am. Chz). And you can never beat Chick-Fil-A (add Am. Chz and mayo). Popeye's is never worth the gamble.

Gamble in terms of service or quality? I’ve never had poor quality Popeyes.

Consider yourself lucky, my Kansas brother.

It sucks that the spicy part of Popeyes is some gross mayo

DQ12 · « **Reply #144 on:** May 19, 2023, 08:01:59 PM »

CFA and Wendy’s are still top tier for me. I tried Popeye’s offering once and it was inoffensive but I’ve never had the desire to try it again.

I’m mostly in the same boat. Love Popeye’s spicy fried chicken and other offerings, but their sandwich was underwhelming. Chick-fil-a is so consistently good it’s really not debatable for me.

I’m taking the raising canes chicken tendies all day ever day over any of those Sammie’s

I only had the Popeye's one once, but the quality of the chicken was on another level. Like, super tasty actual fresh fried chicken but a sandwich. Wendy's is really good when it's good, but still a frozen patty that does not touch Popeye's. CFA is always super mid for me.

Same. Same. Same.

You'd prob like the KFC spicy sando. Try it w/ a Mtn Dew Sweet Lightning (Peach Mtn Dew). Killer combo

Popeyes and chik-fil-a are their own tier. I like Popeyes better because I like their sides better. The waffle fries are an abomination.
