Popeyes ‘Halal’ Louisiana chicken arrives in Essex Chelmsford
HALAL STATUS Fully HalalOur chicken is Halal in Chelmsford. We don’t serve any alcohol or pork in our restaurant.
International US fried chicken chain Popeyes has brought its famous Louisiana chicken to Essex’s Chelmsford.
Located on the High Street, the brand has not only confirmed with FtLion: “Our chicken is Halal in Chelmsford,” but also clarified: “We don’t serve any alcohol or pork in our restaurant.”
Having made its big UK debut late last year in London’s Westfield Stratford, Popeye’s UK website says that in addition to “sourcing UK Sourced, Red Tractor chicken… all of our chicken will be Halal”.
With delivery kitchens in London’s Whitechapel, Battersea, Bermondsey near Tower Bridge, and Maida Vale, Essex’s Romford is scheduled to open in July, with future sites that include London’s Ealing, Reading, Brighton, Oxford, and Gateshead.
With over 3,400 restaurants across the globe, the brand is planning to open 350 sites around Britain in the coming decade.
Founded in New Orleans in 1972, Popeyes’ “chicken is freshly prepared daily in our restaurants, NEVER frozen”, and they “marinate all our chicken for 12 hours in our signature blend of Louisiana herbs & spices and then hand-batter to create that famous Popeyes Shatter-Crunch”.
