Popeyes® UK is bringing its famous Louisiana fried chicken to Llanelli early next year. The restaurant will open a stone’s throw from the Scarlets’ stadium, following successful openings in Cardiff City Centre, Cardiff Bay, Newport and Swansea.
Most recently, fans queued for 18 hours in Swansea – all hoping to be one of the first to try the legendary Popeyes® Chicken Sandwich. Llanelli residents will be able to dine in or takeaway, and enjoy a taste of the full Popeyes® menu, including fan-favourites like the iconic Popeyes® Tenders, and Signature Chicken Wraps, alongside the Chicken Sandwich.
Each piece of Popeyes® chicken is marinated for 12 hours in its signature blend of Louisiana herbs and spices, then hand-breaded and battered to deliver that world-famous ‘shatter crunch,’ complemented by tasty extras like Biscuits and Cajun Gravy.
Tom Crowley, Popeyes® UK Chief Executive Officer, said:
“The response to our Welsh openings has always been fantastic, and we’re now excited to bring the spirit of New Orleans to Llanelli. Opening our fifth Welsh restaurant marks another big step in our growth journey, and we’re looking forward to welcoming guests to Popeyes in Trostre Park very soon.”
The new restaurant will be located at Unit 15 Parc Trostre, Trostre Road, Llanelli, SA14 RA.
