Founded in Louisiana over 50 years ago, Popeyes offers a selection of chicken products including fried chicken sandwiches, hot wings and tenders, as well as American-inspired sides and sweet treats.

Their latest UK branch is set to open in a vacant unit in St John Street in Cardiff city centre that has been left empty for years. While the top two floors of the unit are currently used as an escape room, the ground floor has been vacant ever since its former occupier BrightHouse closed down before later collapsing into administration.
