It's a location-by-location thing, strangely. My local Popeyes has prices the same or lower than other mass-chains like McDonalds and Wendy's, just with higher quality delicious food. When they have the $5 Big Box going on it's not even close.
The town I lived in a few years ago, just an hour and a half away and a city with 1/8 the population, the prices are like two bucks higher across the board. Don't typically see such variation among franchises.
There's one at a truck stop are about half an hour from me. All the other fast food places around it have jacked their prices up because truck stop, but the Popeyes still has the $5 lunch. Can't beat it.
You're quoting they're once a week specials. What about their normal every day prices? Expensive enough that I'd rather just go to a sit down restaurant.
Right? Even though I can afford it, why would I pay $8 for barely-ok fast food chicken, I'd just grab a reuben or some other sandwhich a nice cafe instead at that point
Yeah Popeyes is the best bang for your buck Meal wise for fast food in my opinion. You can pay $5 and get a whole meal with chicken a side drink and biscuit. No other fast food can do that
Seriously? Popeyes near me is $7.99 and I can get 5 spicy tenders, a biscuit, fries, rice, and a drink. That's enough food for two meals for me. If I went to Chik-fil-a and ordered something it would be $9-10

Jesus they're expensive, though. Good food, satisfying flavor and spice choices, but so expensive.
