Restaurant Description

*This restaurant has closed. If this restaurant is open or has reopened, just let us know.

The Popeyes story began in New Orleans back in 1972, when Al Copeland opened a quick-service restaurant called “Chicken on the Run,” selling traditional mild fried chicken to the folks in small New Orleans suburb of Arabi. But business was slow, and Copeland realized that he'd have to sell a spicier alternative to his standard chicken recipe if he wanted to impress flavor-seeking New Orleanians. Copeland had already been experimenting with the flavorful Cajun recipes he'd been enjoying all his life and soon reopened his restaurant as 'Popeyes,' named after the character Popeye Doyle in the movie 'The French Connection.'. With this new concept, Copeland made his mark on the world. He found his success through the delicious New Orleans-style fried chicken that has now made Popeyes famous throughout the world. The rest, as they say, is history. Today, Popeyes has more than 1,818 restaurants in the U.S. and 27 international markets including Puerto Rico, Japan, Germany, Korea, United Kingdom, Mexico, Panama, Honduras, Jamaica, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Guam, Canada and Jordan.
