Hide AdPopeyes is yet to announce the official opening date of the Meadowhall branch, which will have room for 80 diners.
The American brand says chicken fans in Sheffield will be able to experience their "world-famous shatter crunch" and enjoy the taste of New Orleans in the UK, with its signature 12-hour marinated chicken, plus original Southern biscuits and gravy.
Also on offer is a brand-new breakfast menu, including the Big Breakfast Roll made up of a sausage patty, egg, streaky bacon and American cheese in a bun. They also do a variety of sausage, bacon, egg and cheese muffins, cajun hash browns, and its famous Louisiana buttermilk biscuits served with cinnamon sugar or chocolate spread.
As is becoming a tradition with Popeyes' UK openings, the new venue is set to pull out all the stops to showcase its Southern hospitality as it brings a taste of New Orleans to shoppers at Meadowhall. Ahead of the launch, chicken fans can enter for the chance of winning one of their famous Chicken Sandwiches at the opening by signing up via the Popeyes® UK website, with more giveaways to be announced closer to the launch.

Hide AdTom Crowley, CEO at Popeyes UK, said: “We are thrilled to announce another Popeyes restaurant launch in Yorkshire later this year. Our Rotherham restaurant opening in May was our biggest ever launch, not just in the UK but for Popeyes globally, and we’re confident that Meadowhall will be equally as popular."
Darren Pearce, centre director at Meadowhall, said: “We’re excited that Popeyes has chosen Meadowhall for the opening of its latest restaurant, bringing a taste of Louisiana to the centre.“
Popeyes is incredibly popular with people of all ages and will be a fantastic addition to the growing range of restaurants and cafes we already have on offer. We have no doubt that the New Orleans-inspired menu will prove a huge hit with our visitors."
