Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen — Restaurant in New York

Popeyes was formed in Arabi, Louisiana, a suburb of New Orleans, Louisiana, in St. Bernard Parish. It first opened its doors on June 12, 1972, as "Chicken on the Run". Owner Al Copeland (1944–2008) wanted to compete with Kentucky Fried Chicken, but his restaurant failed after several months. Copeland reopened the restaurant four days later as Popeyes Mighty Good Chicken. By 1975, the company had been renamed as Popeyes Famous Fried Chicken. Copeland started franchising his restaurant in 1976, beginning in Louisiana. The chain expanded to Canada in 1984, and opened its 500th restaurant in 1985. B. P. Newman of Laredo, Texas, acquired several franchises in Texas and surrounding states. Two hundred additional locations were added during a period of slower expansion. By 1990, Copeland Enterprises was in default on $391 million in debts it had taken on in its 1989 purchase of Church's, a rival fast food chain also focusing in fried chicken, and by April 1991, the company filed for bankruptcy protection. In October 1992, the court approved a plan by a group of Copeland's creditors that resulted in the creation of America's Favorite Chicken Company, Inc. (AFC) to serve as the new parent company for Popeyes and Church's.[14] AFC went public in 2001 with initial public offering (IPO) of $142,818,479.[15] On December 29, 2004, AFC sold Church's to Arcapita (formerly Crescent Capital Investments) retaining Popeyes.[citation needed] On August 8, 2000, Popeyes announced a franchise development plan/agreement that included 35 new restaurant locations around Australia in a bid to solidify their presence within the Asia Pacific region. All were to be located in Sydney, the capital city of New South Wales. On June 17, 2014, Popeyes announced it had re-acquired full control of its seasonings, recipes, and other proprietary food preparation techniques from Diversified Foods & Seasonings, which remained under the control of Al Copeland and his estate after the creditor sale of Popeyes to AFC. Popeyes had continued to license the seasonings, recipes, and techniques from DF&S for a yearly 'spice royalty', before buying them outright for $43 million. DF&S remains the main supplier for Popeyes until...

I ordered large mashed potatoes and gravy on the side. The gravy was in a different container than it usually is. The guy working was telling me it’s the same size but it’s not. The container is way smaller. I was going to buy another side of just gravy and he’s telling me it’s going to be about $4. Just for a side of gravy! Which is crazy!!!!. He could have easily just given me another one the same kind he gave me that’s not usually in the container it comes in. I would’t go back there. The staff are rude. And he’s not the only one. They always have an attitude. If your unhappy than maybe you should find another job. Only good thing is their mashed potatoes but there cheap when it comes...

All the staff is amazing except that one girl working as a shift lead, I asked her to buy extra spicy mayo sauce but not inside of the sandwich, she was very rude and she said we don’t do that, btw, i always get somebody to fill me a small cup of that sauce and i pay them whatever they want, thats way easier for me and for them, because usually when i ask for extra they don’t put extra.

Unlike her, the guy shift lead came and he was very helpful and he did what i wanted without any problems, thanks to him.

One last thing, this location never pick...
