So the coke was probably the best cause it's hard to screw up a coke unless you don't know the formula for you know the the you know the water and the syrup so unfortunately for them they were actually able to do that so Oh I I I never finished the The sandwich the sandwich was a lot better after I I heated it up in the microwave not really what I have planned but it did work out well Anyway that was OK I mean what would have been a lot better sandwich was hotter but I didn't melt the cheese so anyway yeah so they're coke was the best part so if they don't get it twisted I mean it wasn't like this wasn't like super.

Oh my god I just got the average on this thing 3.5 all day there's gotta be a recount on that...

The Only Fried Chicken Game in Seattle

Finally, Popeyes has arrived to wash away the hipster hubris of what pretentious Seattle chefs pretend to call "fried chicken" (Bok-a-Bok, Ma'ono), and at a fraction of the price.

TL;DR: get the Bonafide Big Box if that special is going on.

Man, what a depressing state of affairs where a giant corporation has more soul than any supposed "Soul Food" restaurants up here.

If you grew up enjoying delicious comfort food from the South (Bojangles, Church's, every random hole-in-the-wall, your grandma's house), and find Seattle's interpretation of it to be a disrespectful travesty, then just give up already and get a three or five piece from Popeyes (depending on how long it's been for you).

The staff are mostly very sweet, hard-working, respectful young women that take you back to classic Southern Hospitality. I've only ever had one issue where one employee sold me on a special that apparently didn't exist and then handed me off to another for the bad news.

Truth be told, if you can handle the commute to the Renton location, their service is a bit more of a well-oiled machine.

If you've never had Popeyes fried chicken: get the original with as many biscuits and you can eat and throw in a diabeetus-level sweet tea. Oh, and do try to get there when it's busy so the chicken is fresh. Ain't nothing sadder than a dried chicken breast.

Expect to have trouble finding a tiny and uncomfortable seat in their sparse dining area and consider eating in your car as a last resort (another case to be made for the Renton location -- superior seating).

Popeyes if all about the breading. It's perfectly crispy, salty, buttery, and just greasy enough to satisfy that craving. You'll find yourself eating every last crumb.

The meat is perfectly brined -- salty enough and no need for any additional sauces (as it should be). The spicy formula is okay, but why mess with success? You will never find a better mass-produced fried chicken recipe, nor will you find a better fried chicken in the whole of Seattle.

Just don't buy extra and attempt to reheat it eat it cold. Popeyes was meant to be eaten fresh.

Besides the delicious Cajun fries and the impossible-to-improve, buttery, flakey biscuits (same applies: eat while hot), the other items are not amazing and should not be the focus of your purchase. Jollibee makes better hand pies and the shrimp in the PNW Popeyes menus are a joke compared to the South (huge prawns).

Just stick to the fries, chicken, and biscuits. If you never spent any time outside of the Seattle area, you'll be wondering how you've lived without real fried chicken...

Now this is going to be a long rewiew apology to anyone reading this. My mother, sister and I had just gotten out of a play that gave us a Popeyes coupon. It was late so we just decided to use the coupon, when we looked for directions, the website said it would close in less than 10 minutes, so we tried looking for another place to eat. We just so happen to drive past Popeyes and see cars still in the drive through, to our surprise they were still serving but trying to get rid of any remaining drive thru customers, fortunately they told us we would be the last people the would serve for the night. This was about 7-10 minutes after they were suppossed to close so I understand any frustration or annoyance of working overtime. When we start to order the lady taking our order had a very unfriendly attitude with us to begin with, but when my mother had explained that we had coupons once she finished ordering the lady rudely said that we were suppossed to tell me that beforehand, now I have to start all over. My mother and I looked at each other in shock, and disgust with her attitude and snap. My mother then apologized and told her the coupon, which turned out to only be for chicken wings, even though the coupon just says a chicken meal. When my mom asked if we could just get the chicken tenders instead of the wings the lady harshly replied no the coupons says the wings only. My mom said that it only said a chicken meal and the lady continued saying that was the wings and we could only get the wings. We just ended up not using the coupon and just ordering 3, 3 pieces. When we got up to the pick up stop the lady told us they only had enough for 2 three pieces, to be honest I was a little upset, but it is what it is, so we tell her that's fine. She rings up the total and says 28.40 and we're all confused because 2 three pieces shouldn't be that much. My mom repeated the total as a question and the lady says yes, for 2 three pieces and combos. My sister snickers in the back of the car and my mom and I exchange looks like "is she serious?" My mom again says we just wanted the 2 three pieces. This could totally biased. Looking at it one way, it was after hours and we had still made them serve us food, and made the order complicated by not explaining the coupon, then not using it, but in another way, I think the service was just not ok even if it's...
