We are just incredibly thankful for their community, outreach and generosity! Thank you so much, you are a wonderful!! Sincerely, The Waples Mill PTA Family“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Great food and great people! We watched as we ate our fantastic dinner as one of the employees came and greeted the local elderly veteran by name and had a wholesome conversation with him telling him how it was their veterans appreciation day!The manager was the kindest soul and checked in on us and everyone else with great charm! It was a refuge from our hectic DC day trip and we found great solace from the big city within these walls, thank you!“

“This is the best chicken in the DMV! It’s juicy, well cooked, and decent size. I can’t say the same about their rice, fries or any other side. The portions and taste of rice have room for improvement though, they add too much water and can use a little more flavor.“

“Fabulous food ! Friendly staff! Kid friendly ! Everyone was happy !“

“Popeyes always gives a perfect piece of fried chicken...but the prices are getting out of hand...chicken is the world's most consumed meat in all the world and by every religion....it's also the fastest meat from conception to slaughter....but is becoming so expensive, that I now only have fried chicken from Popeyes only on rare occasions...“
