Description Here in the UK, we use 100% fresh chicken, marinated for 12 hours in our signature blend of Louisiana herbs & spices. Then, it’s breaded and battered by hand to create that famous Popeyes shatter crunch texture. From Louisiana to London, we have big plans for nation domination over the next few years. So sit tight, a store will be poppin’ up near you soon 🍗

At Popeyes, diversity is more than just a policy, it’s who we are and where we come from: New Orleans, Louisiana. With us, be who you want to be. Bring your authentic self. We want to create an environment where everyone is encouraged and supported to be their very best.
