Reviewing POPEYES - My FIRST TIME! 

From a Michelin Star Indian Restaurant to a Popeyes Chicken... I just love the variety on your channel Gary... and eating your biscuits with gravy is ABSOLUTELY the way to go!

What a pleasant man. I have to hand it to you Gary, I'm watching your channel for a while now and your standard of content and delivery is a breath of fresh air.

I really like the variety of your videos - from high end restaurants to fast food and then your pubs and normal restaurants. Really enjoyable to watch.

Wouldn't want to be sat in front of Gary in Economy on a Longhaul flight. He'd be smashing the IFE screen behind my head for 12 hours! (great food reviewer BTW).

Another great review as always. I must say, the quality of your video is crystal clear and razor sharp!!

Restaurant order screens aren't great for a multitude of reasons. Best advice I can give as a tech guy is to use the pad of your finger instead of the very tip, press instead of jab, and leave a slightly longer pause between the buttons.

LOVED that you dipped your biscuit in gravy! Solid!!

Gary, I'm giving you 10 out of 10 for being an absolute hero foodwise, you really know how to keep your fans entertained with your choices of food, well done and thank you.

Was looking forward to hearing your review of this popular chain which has made its way to the UK. Another great review!

Brilliant fair review as always Gary I will definitely have to GIVE IT A GO

They keep on coming and and never disappoint! What a great way of spending my Friday afternoon, binge watching Gary. Love it…..Thanks.

Nice to see the number of subscribers going up week by week, Gary. Good, honest review again Gary!

Smashing review..as always ..definitely going to try Popeyes soon. .the Sauce reaction was there Gary..

Another great video Gary, thank you

Gary! Amazing video as always!

I love these reviews. Gary is very polite and seems to be a good, ordinary person which makes the reviews something to connect with. My grandchildren dragged us to Popeyes in Reading. Ordering on the screens was not easy and they had fingerprints on them, yuk! As for the food, it was OK but not worth the money. We ordered fries, but they had seasoning on them! Another yuk! But the kids loved it. I wouldn't bother again, can cook much better and cheaper at home, but I appreciate that's not the point for their customers.

Gary, you just need to tap the touchscreen like you would on a smart phone. You're applying too much pressure for too long which is why it's not registering your presses. Just lightly tap the screen.

Love your videos Please keep 'em comin'!

As always gary a great review, bloody hell your becoming a superstar reviewer . Had popeyes in the usa 20 yeats ago and thought it was amazing .

I don't know why i like you so much you always make me hungry.Great vid Gary.

Not what I expected to be honest but good to know ! One finger and tap lightly works best and yeah bloody brioche buns....cheers Gary !

Never tried this place but might just have to now after another great review, well done Gary and camera man

Thank you Gary, another professional well balanced review. I don't really like fast food but I would always trust your reviews. Another great job my friend 👍👍👍

Hi Gary the menu is a touch screen and it is not a press screen (ie you don't need to use strength to get the screen working 😂😂😂😂)

Don't use two fingers on a touch screen uncle

It's like you're reading my mind with these reviews. You really do cover all the bases restaurant wise.

Hooray ... another video ! ... Thnx Gary .... 😍

Always love watching your videos. Chills me out! And good honest reviews. You need some 'Let's give it a go' t shirts n jumpers!

I make this sort of stuff at home all the time, with generic corn flakes. You don't need to deep fry them, an air fryer or oven works. If I do have time, I deep fry them twice in a wok. And the reason? I went to Popeyes, and became addicted.

The trick is not to poke the touch screen, lightly press for a second or 2 usually works

Yes it’s a biscuit, yes you dip in gravy( we order them for breakfast here in the US) or put jam and butter on them ! They look really good actually! Thanks for the video Gary Dear♥️‼️🙋‍♀️🥰We love you❣️

Takes me back to my childhood in New York, Gary. Thanks for this...

Enjoyed that Gary. Good to hear the tenders were tender. Only thing lacking was Elvis in the background singing Love Me Tender.

Surprised but pleased by how many people are anti self service. I work in retail currently, been there about 6 months. I'd say about 65-70% of our customers go for self service (give or take certain days, Saturdays are always so busy you don't keep track). But the ones that don't feel strongly about it and I always appreciate that conversation. I'm often left standing alone behind a counter watching people go to self service on quieter days. We aren't paid much but it's a challenging job. So it's rewarding to see people still prefer the interaction with humans. I'd always argue a computer is less likely to find or even offer solutions to specific problems. You're more likely to find a resolution with people intending to help people. Machines don't have that as a function. Ps, long ramble aside. Enjoy the channel, keep finding your videos somehow and I appreciate your fair/reasoned approach to food. It's refreshing when a lot of channels call everything great, or there's financial incentive to review positively. You can be fair, point out the flaws and rate on quality and still be respectful. I enjoy that about your reviews. 😊😊👌✌️

Another excellent video!! Love the variety of restaurants and places you visit. This is definitely one on my radar after last eating them in the USA. Chicken sandwich and the tenders looked amazing. Good to know it's not only me that has problems with the dreaded ordering kiosk, I would rather order on a phone app than use those machines. Hope all is well and hope you have a great weekend, take care

Hi Gary great review again ive never been to popeyes but will try it sometime well done 👍

The technology you got love it, I've got a sledgehammer you can borrow.. haha

Just what the UK needs.....More Chicken Shops and oh.....Barbers Shops and Costa Coffee!!!!! 😛

Oh Gary - that touch screen almost got the better of you 😀. Love that you did a fast food place and loved that I was mainly impressed with what you got, chicken tenders and chips look to be the food of choice. Good advice re touch screen hygiene as well, I honestly hadn’t thought about multiple users 👍

Great review Gary. The chicken tenders and the gravy, were the the best things there. Never been a lover of these touch screen ordering. Especially, having to hit the areas; very frustrating,to order!!! Many thanks for sharing with us, much appreciated 👍👍👍

I am German but I work in the United States for a German-owned pharmaceutical company. My aunt and uncle brought my grandmother over to visit and they saw a Popeye's commercial on television and they asked to go there. I think they ate there 25 days out of the 30 days they were here!

Spent ten minutes trying to help an elderly gentleman to check in on a touch screen at my GP surgery today, unfortunately he couldn’t remember his date of birth. Had to direct him to the grumpy receptionist, poor soul was upset. Technology is great if people can work it. Not a fast food fan but I’d maybe give this one a go.

The variety of restaurants you go to is amazing 👏 I'm going through your past videos to find out what joints I need to go too. In time all bad restaurants will fear your presence. Good thing is they can up there game. I'm a fan of your channel probably. the best food content channel 👌 around.

A really good visit taste test and fair review 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌 I again have never tried popeyes,nothing in my area for two hours at least- but I have seen vids and I would like to try. Tenders definitely the deal here. Excellent as always Gary

It's a touch screen, not a press screen!

Yummy!! Glad you tried popeyes they make pretty good chicken here in Canada!! Thanks Gary!

Great review as always Gary food looks tasty gotta love fried chicken keep up the videos mate

I see Gary, I watch. Congratulations on building your channel up mate

Biscuits & gravy are a beloved staple of American fast food culture so you dip away Gary!

I’m a recent subscriber,you seem like a lovely bloke,really enjoy your videos thank you

Hey Gary this is definitely a different review.... Loved it keep up the good work 😊

Great review. I like the way you review chain restaurants and fast food outlets too. I very rarely eat in such places but I would definitely try Popeyes.

Absolutely loved the 5 guys video really got me thinking about another fast food chain i think you would try called WingStop never had it myself would love to see what you think 😌😌

Garry next time you use one of those machines try not pointing your finger at it 👉 But use the finger print part of your finger☝️If this doesn't work try using the knuckley part of your hand to push through the glass to the chosen item 👊.

Gary putting in some real legwork ...From Witby to Richmond...Great Work... Popeyes Spicy Chicken Burger Deluxe is the business

Cheers Gary there's one coming to Swansea and I can't wait.

Hi Gary. Like you avoid mushrooms, I’m not a fan of chicken so I won’t comment on the food. However, your criticism of the touch screen operation and it cleanliness is very relevant. Particularly when eating food with our fingers. A sachet of sanitiser with each order should be mandatory. Cheers.

I like the fries oc(cajun) ally.. Great review.

Well done again gary we are getting our first one built in aberdeen where i live so your vlog very helpful cant wait to try it i will give you my score when it opens but i agree chicken on the bone well overdone such a shame but i will get the tenders thanks to you again gary another great vlog thanks.

I do love their scones (biscuits) with honey, delicious

those order screens have put me off for good

In my humble opinion Popeyes has the best fried chicken as well as the best chicken sandwich of any Fast Food joint. Also, there gravy for the mashed potatoes is great. Good video.

Thankyou for your review Gary me and myson will be going there in Liverpool hopefully it will be a good place to go. We would like to let you know what it was like 👍

13:41 Hey Gary - great video. Thanks for the nostalgia trip as my Mother used to make those fried scones/biscuits and serve them with lashings of butter and golden syrup. You’re not the only one who has problems with those screens either. 😂

A lovely video but very sad. This used to be Don Fernando's, a really superb Spanish restaurant where I spent many, many happy evenings. I'm sure you would've enjoyed it too, Gary. It was absolutely superb and I'm very sad it's no longer there.

I thought that order machine was going to be ripped off the wall, and launched out the window 😂

Yet again you smashed it,not the screen 😜. You always come up trumps giving a good honest review. I definitely go there for a Popeyes chicken dinner . Thank you 🙏🏼⭐️😜👍❤️

Biscuits and gravy, very popular in USA but never seen the biscuit before so thanks Gary. Nice video. Regards from Sheffield UK.

........so many takeaways now. What really worries me, is where all the food is sourced from. We don't ask do we, or do we care when we are hungry. All the best😎☯️

PLEASE PLEASE try wing stop xxxxxxxxxxxx we love you gary xxxxx

Have been to Popeyes quite a few times in Texas (have family there) and love it. Didn’t know they have branches in England!!! Would definitely try with Hubby Joe, but unfortunately not near us. I actually laughed out loud with you ordering on screen - thought it was only me that was so impatient - they are so annoying. As usual, another great review, Gary!

Never heard of POPEYES untill now. Food looked good, going to LA and Vegas soon will try one out there. Great vid Gary.😀😀

"Popeye's Chicken is F**king awesome" - Little Nicky

I had the unprivileged of trying a local popeyes near me after reading a local rag review raving how good it was.As i love fried chicken ill give it ago.. But i was disappointed with dinning experience. For me with fried chicken it is all about the coating. But for me it was like eating crushed cornflakes plus also the gravy and mash was crap imo. I have better fried chicken in many chippys. Thank you for your video

Love the way your microphone matched your shirt :)

Glad you tried Popeyes Gary chips and gravy always a winner we love it in the Midlands 😊😊😊Enjoyed the video best wishes Diane 😊😊

Chips and gravy Gary? You’ll be saying aye up and breading whippets next mate haha #convertednorthernboy

Biscuits and sausage gravy is an American classic for breakfast, had some in Chicago recently. Another great post. Off to Reading with junior opp tomorrow for his driving theory, perfect timing for this Gary, Popeyes or 5 Guys 😋😋

A fair review. Thank you.

Looks spot on gal I’ll defo try it now you have recommend it 🐥

I hate self-service. It is a way to get rid of staff and cash. I would just leave.

Funny how passing money over never used to leave us reaching for hand sanitiser!?

Another great vlog

A good review. Blessings from Texas,USA. 👍😊❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

Here's a bloody brilliant idea: have people take your order! It has worked fine since the first restaurant opened in Britain. I am heating some chicken in the oven tonight. Getting hungry.

They should be paying you to use those god awful touch screens.

That looks nice,love the. Hicken coating😊

Best food reviewer on this platform🔥

Im sorry mate, but when you have to thump a screen for an order, you lost me there! Even my GP surgery has a machine like that, covered in every germ known to man - I give up.

Admittedly wanted to watch you bang the screen a bit more

It's another winner, Gary's chicken dinner. Looked to be a great takeaway meal, would do me nicely.

"That was a pain in the " - good save 🤣

touch screens don't like it when you use 2 fingers....

I agree with you Gary on the hygiene aspect of touch screens, I always use my knuckle instead of my fingertip and it works!

Another restaurant I recommend is the Filipino chain called Jollibees. They do a meal deal of fried chicken with either fries, spaghetti or sticky rice with gravy or spicy sauce. I recommend the spicy chicken with sticky rice.

I hate those touch screen gimmicks and always have problems with getting them to work. Perhaps a slightly harder touch with a hammer would work better.

Love the content but use 1 finger FFS it's user friendly but not idiot proof

looking forward to this, as usual il comment now at the start before I watch, and again at the end after I watch .. iv had pop eyes biscuits and gravy, once.. it was nice fair play...

Gary your videos always brighten up my day. Thanks and keep up the good work!

Gary, I know what you need to try next time you're near one- A Greggs "restaurant". A steak bake or a sausage, cheese and bean melt and a bacon and sausage breakfast roll with a latte. Tuna crunch baguette and a triple chocolate muffin will sort you right out. Fuelling the northern commuter for decades. Keep up the good work. 🙂
