Popeyes Chicken & Biscuits

Bad food, super rude cashiers, and dirty. Would probably never come back here if you paid me.

Do not go here! Everyone in this area knows how crappy of a place this is. I’ve never had such terrible service in my life!!! We literally once in a blue moon get a craving for Popeyes and instead of driving the .6 miles to this location (I live right down the street) we drive all the way to the town and country location. It’s like twenty extra minuets but I won’t go here even if you were buying. Pretty sure they are prejudice. Service terrible Food terrible and you don’t want to touch anything due to how grungy it looks. Just close so someone els can take ownership of this dump. Look they don’t have a picture or all of their information filled out. This shows what kind of management this place is under. Lazy and don’t care

I find it interesting that I am the first person to review this Popeyes since I first came to this specific location in August 2009 and it was pretty good. Anyway, in late May 2013 I went back and I saw the place had gone to hell entirely.
First thing I noticed walking in is that their air conditioner is broken and they have fallen into the old Popeyes operational trap of being disorganized as shit and being retarded about how to run their business. Basically, this entails making every single order separately, and in order, so that it takes 30 – 40 minutes to get your order, and then they move on to the next person. AKA employing people with the organizational skills of children.
Next thing I noticed was that all of the tables were full of people waiting for their orders, about 6 – 7 people, and they looked exasperated, like they had been there a long time. Among them, a filthy homeless had managed to sneak in, and he was sprawled out in a booth. He looked like a homeless version of Red Foxx.
Well Homless didn’t like the way I looked so he started yelling that I had looked at him ‘wrong’ and so on. At this point, I was ready to leve because of the lack of air conditioning and general hopelessness of the place, its forlorn customers, and its awful employees. Right then the homeless got up and started making threatening gestures towards me and trying to attack me in front of the other customers. Remarkably, none of them intervened, though they seemed to recognize him from their ‘hood’.
‘Oh, dat old _____…he always drunk! And he always be comin’ in here causin’ trouble!’ That’s what the manager said. What the fuck kind of restaurant lets a homeless drunk sprawl out on a table when they know he’s not buying anything.
We called the police. They came in about 6 – 7 minutes. Which is faster than the amount of time the Popeyes was able to make even one order, incidentally.
Anyway, I could not leave the restaurant. We had managed to get the homeless out the door, and at that point he continuously opened the door to yell in, «Come on out here so I can kick your ass» and so on. So we waited for him to wander off and then all got in our car and went back towards Notre Dame, realizing why people from the college never come over here. Turns out there’s a reason.
So, if you go to ND, I recommend you NEVER come here. It’s full of homeless and criminals. All of the customers and employees are from ghetto, so if one of their ilk starts to attack you, you simply cannot expect assistance. They will never side with you over their own. And I think that says a lot about them and their character, that they’d rather defend a drunken addict lunging at people than to take the side of people bringing money into their broken community.
If there is any justice in the world, this Popeyes will go out of business and then the losers around ‘Lincoln Way’ will have one less place to spend their welfare check.
