Popeyes, the beloved Louisiana fried chicken brand, is launching a new lineup of menu items that will surely excite fast food lovers. Among the new offerings is a tantalizing twist on a classic favorite. As we all know, a good condiment can make all the difference when it comes to enjoying a burger and fries. Whether it's the classic mayo, ketchup, or ranch, or something with a little more kick, Popeyes is listening to its customers and delivering exactly what they've been craving.
Popeyes, which has received rave reviews and even been compared to the likes of McDonald's, is now introducing its Hot Honey range in the UK. This new range was inspired by the popular Hot Honey dip, and after numerous requests from fans, Popeyes has decided to expand its menu to include this delicious flavor. The new items are now available in restaurants and for takeaway, and they include a twist on the chain's most famous product, the chicken sandwich, as well as two other mouth-watering options.
The star of the new range is the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich, priced at £6.99. Like its predecessors, this sandwich features Popeyes' signature shatter crunch chicken breast, served on a soft brioche bun. But what sets this sandwich apart is the addition of a drizzle of hot honey sauce, topped with smoked cheese and pickles. It's a perfect balance of sweet and spicy that will surely have your taste buds dancing with delight.
For those who want more heat, there are also the new Hot Honey Saucin' Wings, which Popeyes promises will pack a punch. These crispy chicken wings are drenched in the house-developed hot honey sauce, making them a must-try for fans looking to spice up their order. And for a bigger meal, the Hot Honey Box Meal is the perfect choice, featuring the sandwich, regular fries, a regular drink, and your choice of either two chicken tenders, three hot wings, or one-piece signature chicken for £10.99.
Dave Hoskins, head of food at Popeyes, explained the inspiration behind the new range, saying, "After seeing the love from our fans for our best-selling Hot Honey dip, we thought it was only right that we take it one step further and launch a range of new products dedicated to the flavor. Combining the texture of our famous Shatter Crunchin' chicken with the sticky and sweet Hot Honey, we're proud to be the first and only quick service restaurant in the UK to offer a Chicken Sandwich and Saucin' Wings that pay homage to this delicious flavor trend. We're constantly inspired by our origins in New Orleans, and Hot Honey certainly comes with that sweet Southern kick."
The new items are limited edition, so they won't be around forever. But don't worry, they'll be available for a while, so you have time to try them out and see for yourself if they live up to the hype. And if you're still not convinced, let us tell you, they do. Our Agency got an exclusive early taste of the new range and we were blown away by the sweet and saucy flavors.
Our Platform editor, Jess Austin, declared herself a Popeyes convert after trying the amazing chicken sandwich. And our Lifestyle writer, Eleanor Noyce, couldn't get enough of the hot honey sauce, describing it as sweet, tangy, and crispy. Even Metro's resident food writer, Courtney Pochin, who enjoyed the new items, admitted that while they were tasty, they paled in comparison to the classic options. She said, "Popeyes is my go-to fast food chain, and while this new twist on the chicken sandwich is undeniably yummy and has a nice warm kick, it's got nothing on the OG version. The classic is a classic for a reason, you just can't beat it."
So, is the new Hot Honey range at Popeyes worth a try? We definitely think so. But hurry, these limited edition items won't be around forever. In other exciting fast food news, popular US chain Dunkin' has launched its autumn menu, featuring delicious new drinks and seasonal doughnuts. And with plans to double its number of shops by 2025, you'll soon have even more options to satisfy your cravings.
