Popeye's Chicken Opening Up In Calgary

[hurrdurr]

Went on Christmas Eve - Was about 6 people in front of us and a 10 minute wait after ordering.

Food was fresh and delicious (could be spicier though) biscuit i enjoyed but i always get honey and butter to put on it. (In Canada they charge for honey smh) - If you don't like the biscuit try it with honey/butter and maybe a piece of chicken or tender on it.

I don't think I could eat the biscuit just on it's own

I went back to the Edmonton location last night.

Chicken was MUCH better (way less salt). However, they were "out" of the regular chicken (only spicy) and I'd have to wait 10 minutes for the next batch. Like wtf?

And its been over a month and their ice machine STILL doesn't work for their pop. I'm actually going to send a complaint in as that is bullshit, warm pop completely ruins the experience.

But overall, the chicken is infinitely better than KFC/Mary Browns.

Why would you complain about getting a fresh batch lol

i find if its straight outta the oil its hella greasy, but if it has time to sit in the warmer it drains off.

Hang on a second. People drink pop without liquor in it?!

Fritou opened literally on top of it last week. Like slightly west of it across the street.

Tried the Calgary popeyes and I can confirm that it is much better than the Edmonton version. Still not living up to the hype.

Going down to phoenix soon. Will try and report back.

Taco Bell's Naked Chicken Chalupa just went nationwide in US yesterday I believe.

You should try that as I heard great things. It's too bad we won't be getting this in Canada yet.

Anyone visiting the states should try it and report back. I want to eat like 10 of those right now

[R154]

You're on.

I am a severe Coke addict. Its why I never keep the stuff in the house. However, I HATE pop with alcohol in it. I don't even really like pop except for Coke.

Just had a 3 piece spicy combo with onion rings.

It's basically the same as in the US. Less greasy here.

Biscuit was cooked properly. Tomco's was definitely overdone, almost burnt.

Onion rings were cold though. Sitting around for a while.

[SmAcKpOo]

How much was it?

Yup.

Parking lot was full, everybody was eating in, drive thru had three cars. When I left parking lot was still full, drive thru was packed.

They forgot to give me a straw, so maybe check, or have service animal to keep your temper in check.
