Popeyes UK is set to pull out all the stops to showcase its Southern hospitality as it brings a taste of Louisiana to West Yorkshire.

Guests looking to visit on launch day are advised to get down quickly to beat the round-the-block queues which have become synonymous with Popeyes UK restaurant launches, with diners at the drive-thru in Manchester queuing for 25 hours before the opening.

Tom Crowley, Popeyes UK Chief Executive Officer, said: “Following the success of our existing Popeyes sites across Yorkshire, we’re really looking forward to opening our newest restaurant at Snowhill Retail Park. This will mark our fourth restaurant in the region, and we’re ready to bring a taste of New Orleans to Wakefield.”

The new Wakefield drive-thru restaurant will be at Snowhill Retail Park and has brought over 100 new jobs to the local area.
