Yep, still not bothering with this stupidity. It could be the greatest sandwich on the planet, I still wouldn't put up with the savage morons who think this kind of behavior is acceptable, ESPECIALLY taking a human life over the possibility of not eating a damned sandwich that can be eclipsed with basic culinary knowledge. Saw a long ass line from the Popeyes around my way. Decided, "nope", made my own and added some Colby jack cheese. Was good.

Even though there was a sign saying they were out my Popeyes had the sandwiches. I like that it’s thicker than Chick-fil-A.
Unfortunately, they put way too much batter on it. This made it completely fall off the meat. I was left with a batter sandwich. This was with the regular flavor. Next time I might try the spicy recipe.

Wait, someone is going to PRISON for killing over cutting in line for a goddamn sandwich? Are they putting crack in the batter? Well it be argued that Popeyes is that f***ing good. Which begs the question why the hell did someone break Texas Chicken to New Zealand but not Popeyes.

Actually, now that you mention it, the few times I've eaten Popeyes their chicken has gotten me sick. That said, back when I used to work across the street from a Popeyes, their sides were a regular for my lunch. Loved their mashed potatoes and gravy and rich and beans. Also their cajun fries were really good too. What I hate most about this Popeyes Chicken Sandwich thing though is that it's completely overwhelming the fact that McDonalds has brought back the McRib (for a limited time only). It's the freakin' McRib and it's getting almost no press. I love Popeyes. Went tonight to get some chicken strips. See the drive thru is going out to the street. Park go to enter and the main door is locked. Have to walk around the store and the register line is 15 people long. Yep everyone but me wanted a chicken sandwich. They were fairly fast at filling orders,and gave me a free drink for having to wait so long. The McRib I like but got burnt out it last year. A friend was managing a Mcdonalds and they ran out of the Mcrib buns before they ran out of patties. They were told to throw the ribs out. So she took them and gave me like 40 of them frozen. Had a birthday part for some friends and we finally finished off the case and a half of mcribs my friend got from work. Never had bad chicken from popeyes. It is always just right. But their sides can be hit or miss depending on the location. The one near me has great cajun rice and mashed potatoes but their green beans and red beans and rice arent that great.

I've had 3 of them. I work across the street from a Popeyes and when I get off is a good time to avoid a long line. I've never been less than fifth in the drive-thru; otherwise I would skip it. They are ok. But just ok. For me, it's about what and what with Chic-Fil-A. I appreciate how thick the chicken is. You really feel like you are getting more bang for your buck. However, I was disappointed that the spicy sandwich is just a spicy mayonnaise on top of the sandwich. I prefer the Chic-Fil-A method of the actual meat being spicy. Overall, its delicious, but it is not worth standing in a line for hours.

Some lady came screaming out of the Popeyes parking lot yesterday and nearly T-boned me. I’m going to assume she was pissed they were out of chicken sandwiches.

Went last night, still great. We waited about 20 minutes inside which I expected but it was pretty calm.

A friend i used to work with at Burger King who is now a manager for popeyes, posted some vids on her stories with the lines going out into the damn street. I also saw a vid from here in San Antonio of a cashier and a customer violently throwing trays at each other. Now you have a murder..
It's just fast food chicken, people. F***

Finally had one. And I gotta say, worth the hype. That’s just a damn good chicken sandwich. Just really crispy and juicy. Not worth going to jail for, but not by much.

Yeah, last night I saw a line onto the main road at the Popeye's near me. I do want to try this sandwich but any time I mention it to my wife she just shoots it down, possibly because of the various idiocy surrounding this stuff.

Tried in again today. It's fine, but it's not as good as it's hyped up to be. Still prefer Chick-fil-a.

Okay I went to Popeye's today for the first time....the place is a fiasco. The place was insanely busy, which I expected, but what excuse is there for not having napkins around? Or forks and spoons? Or butter? Or not having the value meals clearly listed on the screens? Or having a sign up for a kids meal chicken nuggets but not having nuggets at all? This place is clearly amateur hour that isn't ready for the hype involving their sandwich. As far as the sandwich itself goes, it was fine. It's solid. I don't get why it's dramatically better than a typical Wendy's Homestyle chicken sandwich.
I'm telling you guys. Lee's needs to make some sort of awesome chicken sandwich available. Get a bigger breast strip type deal and put it on a bun, put some ranch on it, and watch the billions flow into the coffers.

When In-N-Out opened in Dallas there was a huge line every day for weeks.
Then the hype died down and you could get a meal there in a reasonable time frame.
Then I had some and it was really pretty meh.

I remember when I made the first thread about the sandwich and mind you it was before it blew up, it was great. Given the blow up, the hiatus and now this new hype I wonder if it tastes the same as it used to. I've heard rumors that they might have changed the recipe around but I don't know yet.
I think I'll try it out in a few weeks, on a Wednesday, at 10AM when I'm off of work or something lol. There's no use for me to go during lunch time but if I can slide in around then in the morning I'll be good.

IT'S A f***ING SANDWICH!!!! Jesus Tapdancing Christ. Not gonna lie, I fell into the hype and had it. It was okay. Didn't blow my mind and wasn't worth the long ass wait I had to endure. I've personally made better in my home(I use my own blend spice rub on the chicken before I cook it). And people are killing others over it. Again, PEOPLE ARE KILLING OTHERS OVER A PIECE OF CHICKEN!

I still haven't tried one. And I don't know if I'll ever have one. I can't put my life on the line for a chicken sandwich.

I probably won't try one either. I have tried eating Popeye's several times. Each time was an utter disappointment. It was simply not appealing to me at all.
