Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen is a renowned fast-casual chain specializing in mouth-watering fried chicken dishes with a rich, Cajun flavor profile inspired by traditional Louisiana cuisine.
Founded in 1972, Popeyes was originally called "Chicken on the Run" before being renamed after the explorer Juan Ponce de León's nickname for Florida. The brand is known for its flavorful and spicy fried chicken, served hot alongside a range of sides such as red beans and rice, mashed potatoes, and biscuits.
The menu also features other Southern-style comfort foods like fried catfish, seafood platters, and sandwiches with various toppings. Signature items include the famous Spicy Fried Chicken, Red Beans and Rice Bowl, and the Bayou Seasoning that adds a unique flavor to their dishes.
