Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The crunchy coating on the chicken is delicious."
  • "The chicken burger 100% lives up to the hype."
  • "The chicken is so juicy and full of flavour and tastes so much better than KFC."
  • "Truly amazing. Chicken is so, so, so juicy and the batter is godly."
  • "The chicken was cooked perfect, not overdone."
  • "Great crispy coating, lovely flavour and chicken was nice and moist."
  • "The food was really nice. It's a bit on the pricey side, but the quality of the chicken is high."
  • "Fried chicken done right. Perfectly fried chicken on the bone, delicious (chicken) burgers, massive crispy tenders."

Cons:

  • "Nowhere near the hype. Chicken itself was tender and juicy. The coating was crispy enough, but it totally lacked seasoning flavour."
  • "Chicken had a lot of crum, maybe to show chicken size."
  • "Chicken was very dry. Food was served luke warm."
  • "Chicken is way too big for the bun and it’s bland."
  • "The chicken spicy deluxe couldn’t save my disappointment as the chicken was too big for the buns it was thick tasteless and tough to eat."
  • "Tenders were dry as sticks, made my teeth feel so gritty."
  • "Buns where burnt. Charged for Wings despite an offer being on for spending over £10."
  • "Chicken tastes good and is well seasoned, but the batter around the chicken tastes weird."

Service Quality

Pros:

  • "Service wasn't long even though it was so busy! Definitely recommend."
  • "After a short wait, our food was delivered to the table by a well presented & pleasant member of staff."
  • "Love that we can also order online and scan the code and they come to your table. Now that is modern fast food."
  • "Great service and great food."
  • "Service was quick and my order was correct. Restaurant is clean and staff members were very helpful."
  • "Helped us out as it was our first time, order arrived very fast."
  • "Honestly really amazing food and staff. I would highly recommend it."
  • "Incredible service from the people at Popeye's. Opening week and the queue was massive, the managers went above and beyond."

Cons:

  • "The service was poor. Kept forgetting stuff on our order."
  • "The service can be a little slow at times but it's usually only during busy periods."
  • "I had to wait 35 minutes for my food despite already asking once where it is."
  • "Food took ages to come, on top of this appalling experience I found that a burger was missing from my order."
  • "Was as expected in terms of fast food but really enjoyed the food. Chicken was cooked perfect, not overdone."
  • "It's ok, family like it but I prefer elsewhere to be honest especially as its expensive here."
  • "I know this place is new, however if they don't improve their processes this place is going to close just as quick as it opened."
  • "35 minute wait for 3 pieces of chicken, fries, biscuit and drink seems excessive. It's obvious the kids working there don't know what they are doing."
