Today, when I arrived at Popeyes, I told the manager on duty that I had a promo code. He looked at me with a bad attitude and said, “No, no, promo codes don’t work here.” I replied that, as far as I knew, it was valid, but he got upset. So I said, “Okay,” sat down, and downloaded the Popeyes app. From there, I ordered the exact same offer I was trying to redeem with the coupon. When I placed the order, he gave me another dirty look and, reluctantly, went to the back. They eventually gave me the food, but I can’t be sure—still, it left me with the feeling that something was off.
Earlier today, I had only eaten lunch, and by the time I left work, more than 5 hours had passed without eating again. After picking up the food at Popeyes, it took me about 15 minutes to get home.
When I arrived, I went upstairs, and all of a sudden I started feeling dizzy. I had stomach pain, broke out in a cold sweat, and everything around me started spinning. I felt nauseous, very unwell, and out of balance. My lower lip began to feel numb, as if it were falling asleep, and I noticed my heartbeat was irregular.
The food made me feel extremely sick. I was feeling so awful that I just lay down and slept for about 2 hours. When I woke up, I still felt stomach discomfort, so I went to vomit. About 10 minutes after vomiting, I started to feel better.
That’s when I realized it was the food that had...
Read moreDrove an hour away to get Popeyes since this is the only halal one in NJ and wanted to see the hype. While making my order, I added the offer with the spicy chicken sandwich and since the location was far, I made the purchase and left so I wouldn’t delay my lunch break. Once I got there, I was given one sandwich and saw on my receipt that only one sandwich went through. I applied the offer and made sure I saw it prior to me adding my payment info. I provided the offer and the number for the cashier, but she refused to take it. My order was well over $10 and unfortunately this was the only halal location. I ended up ordering another sandwich since it was for my wife and went back home. I checked my bag and as part of the chicken meal, there were suppose to be biscuits. Checked all the boxes and there were no biscuits. Not only is there only 1 halal location that’s an hour away, and there was bad service/technology invested behind the application, but my order wasn’t even fulfilled. This is just a very disappointing first time experience.
EDIT: Popeyes corporate reached out and gave me a refund plus $5 on my next purchase. Was pleased to know they took care of me right away. Tried their fish sandwich and it was really good. So changed my 1...
Read moreThis place is absolutely horrible. The manager clearly doesn’t know what he is doing. I ordered the Sandwich only & I saw it’s available in Golden BBQ flavor for the same price of $4.99. I asked for it & the manager is telling me that it doesn’t come in that flavor. I pointed out 2 places on the menu where it says it does & he had a shocked face like he didn’t know, & precisely because he didn’t know & it was obvious he did not, he proceeded to lie to me & tell me that he’s waiting on HQ to change the marketing when he himself had no idea what the promos were. If he was being lazy & didn’t want to put in the effort of actual customer satisfaction, then I would have rather him be up front about him not feeling like doing his job than lie to me about it. He offered me only the classic sandwich & didn’t even ask if I wanted it spicy, which I did, but at this point I was ready to leave and go to work. As a previous employee of the company, this manager’s attitude was completely unacceptable. I hope a replacement is made in...
