Founded in 1972 Louisiana by Al Copeland who dreamed of serving the best fried chicken.

50 years ago in New Orleans, Louisiana. A taste sensation was born. What started as one small restaurant with a dream of creating the world’s best fried chicken is now a craze that has swept across the world, serving in over 4,000 restaurants … and we’re not stopping there. Y’all are coming with us? We’ve Now Landed in the UK! With big ambitions over the next few years to spread our joy across the country. It’s more than just food, it’s soul, it’s sass. We believe in the power of good food.. Our flavour for life was born in the depths of South Louisiana where life is spirited, soulful, and the food is no different. It’s the reason our chicken is busy becoming the world’s worst kept secret.

So, we’ve finally landed in the UK to become your most loved chicken brand. About time too! Quality is royalty at Popeyes. That’s why we use only 100% Fresh Chicken, marinated for TWELVE WHOLE HOURS in the bold and flavourful Cajun seasonings of Louisiana. The best of both nations in every bite… UK, the 51st state. Y’all better believe it.
