A typical Classic Chicken Sandwich in Phoenix is $5.49; in New York it is $5.99. Those are city medians (6 restaurants against 25 restaurants), not one store standing in for the skyline. Same chain, two city medians, pickup prices from Popeyes own ordering system.
This page is the city, not a restaurant. Phoenix’s figure is the median pickup price across 6 Popeyes restaurants we priced; New York’s is the median across 25. One expensive airport location cannot drag either city, and one cheap store cannot pretend to be it.
Inside Phoenix a Classic Chicken Sandwich runs $5.49 to $5.49 at most of those restaurants (middle 80%). Inside New York it runs $5.49 to $6.89 at most of those restaurants (middle 80%). The city-to-city gap on that item is $0.50 on the medians, which is a statement about the two cities, not about a single till in either one. A spread inside one city is why a state average hides half the story.
To compare two specific addresses, use Store mode on the picker above. A Popeyes in Phoenix is not “Phoenix.”

Phoenix’s restaurants listed 3 comparable items often enough to publish a city median that New York did not. New York listed 0 that Phoenix did not. Those stay off the city-to-city table, because a median for a city that barely sells the item would be a fake number.
Common in Phoenix, not in the other city: Strawberry Cupcake Cup, Caramel Apple Cheesecake Cup, and Large Cajun Rice.
Each price is the median pickup quote at the restaurants we priced in that city, not one celebrity store and not a mean pulled by an airport. Tax is not included. A gap of a few cents on one sandwich is noise; 69 overlapping items pointing the same way is a difference between the two cities.
Compare a different pair of cities with the picker at the top, or see every priced Popeyes restaurant on the price map — the map is store grain; this page is the city sitting on top of it.
What this does not do yet. It does not match a Chicken Sandwich to a Whopper, and it does not hunt down the cheapest restaurant for a custom order. Those are next. This page is the city-grain question: two cities, same chain, median overlapping menu, different typical prices.
