Popeyes Employee Tells Customer at Drive-Thru: "All We Have Are Breasts, Wings, and Thighs" | He Drives Away Laughing

A man pulls up to the drive-thru at a Montgomery Popeyes location to order and an employee comes on the speaker and says, "All we have is breasts, wings, and thighs." When he orders a "number one," the employee suddenly remembers that they are "out of sandwiches too." So then what do you have? 😂

In September 2023, a man pulled up to a Montgomery Popeyes drive-thru at night and got a quick run down by an employee of everything they were out of.

This is what happens when Popeyes runs out of food but keeps the drive-thru going. It's a classic tale that you might laugh at as long as someone else is telling the story.

Customer Leaves Popeyes Drive-Thru Laughing

Kayree Ali from Atlanta posted a video on TikTok on 30 August 2023 showing the drive-thru at "Popeyes East Chase Montgomery Alabama" which would be the location at 9036 Eastchase Parkway in Montgomery.

The video starts with Kayree waiting at the drive-thru for someone to take his order.

A Popeyes employee gets on the speaker and gives a quick rundown on what they are out of.

He said:

"How you doin' now, all we have is breasts, wings, and thighs. We have no sweet and spicy or no ghost wings. We only takin' card, and no add-ons at the window." -Popeye's drive-thru employee

Kayree says, "Can I get the number one?"

The Popeyes employee replies, "Oh, I'm sorry, we out of sandwiches too."

Kayree laughs and the Popeye's employee is also heard laughing on the drive-thru speaker.

Kayree says, "[Expletive] alright, thank you, bro," and drives away laughing.

Some people might have gotten angry at the thought that they would not be able to get their Popeyes fix, but this man laughs it off, which shows he is a good sport, even though the caption on his video says, "Bruh just close the store."

The TikTok video can be seen below.

Yahoo! Life writer Bailey Fink reported that Popeye's new "sweet and spicy wings" are getting rave reviews. They are tossed in a chili, garlic, and ginger blend "that brings a mild heat, plus a hint of sweetness in every bite." Fink wonders if Popeye's will decide to keep the new sweet and spicy wings on the menu due to their growing popularity.

Have you tried them?

Comments to the Video

One person in the comments compared this Popeyes location to a McDonald's that uses the excuse that their "ice cream machine is down."

A user named 'Joe' shared, "My Popeyes gets pissed off if I try n order more than 2 things."

A user named 'Tricey' wrote, "Welcome to Popeyes, we out of chicken." She was joking.

Another user, 'Eman' says, "At least they got chicken. I went to Popeyes one night and they said the only thing they had left was biscuits."

A user named 'Coda' wrote in the comments, "Last time I went to Popeyes they were out of EVERYTHING *and* their soda fountain didn't work...AT 2PM."
