Popeyes Arcovia City, Pasig

When I was still in college, Popeyes is already here in Manila, so it was not my first time trying their food. I studied in Katipunan area so I am near Robinsons Sta. Lucia branch so I can say that I ate at Popeyes almost on a regular basis since me and my friend are addicted to their famous biscuits.To bad they stopped operations and I am very excited that they were coming back. I waited for a little longer because the hype is still there and I don't want to be waiting in the long queues. So finally we went to Arcovia at around 11:30am and surprisingly there was no line at all outside, so we went inside and there were few people at the counter, but the whole place is full. The food waiting time is not that long maybe because we were early for lunch. We ordered two piece chicken with biscuit, three piece chicken tenders with rice, a creamy crab soup, mashed potato, cajun rice and a box of 3 assorted biscuits.

Overall I am very sad that their chicken is very ordinary, not even juicy compared before, mas masarap pa ang Chicken Joy eh. The biscuits which was my favorite before did not meet my expectations, it was hard and dense not like before. Mashed potato is a so so. Cajun rice is okay for me and good thing Crab soup was the only thing that saved the day. It was really good. It was really disappointing that my comparison from the old Popeyes is way beyond to the new one. I don’t know what happened. Even the staff are not fully aware of the free wifi, so no job knowledge at all, boyfie asked the cashier and was informed that there’s no free wifi but I am seeing one and I did asked another staff and was informed the same thing as well, but good thing I always check and keep receipts and lo and behold the password is in the receipt haha. For me the long wait and long queues is not worth it at all, In the future I will give it another try and try maybe their burgers and cajun fries and of course the crab soup but I will go there during off peak hours...

Here's their menu just in case you wanna try their food...

This review is based on my own experience and is my genuine opinion of this restaurant, and that I have no personal or business relationship with this establishment, and have not been offered any incentive or payment originating from the establishment to write this review.
