Popeyes to open 7 new locations

It will also open its first-ever drive-thru at Rotherham.

Popeyes is on track to open 20 restaurants before the end of 2023, with seven locations set to open this year.

The first restaurant will open in Cambridge followed by a restaurant in Reading this month. This will be followed Cardiff in March. The fast food brand is also set to open its first drive-thru in Rotherham. 

“Now that we’ve established a growing presence here, we’re excited to start turning our attention towards building an industry-leading employee value proposition for our UK teams and identifying where we can make a difference in the communities we’re part of,” Tom Crowley, CEO at Popeyes UK said.

Popeyes currently has 17 restaurants and delivery kitchens in the UK.
