Popeyes is launching a major menu shakeup with three newcomers for spice lovers
- The American fast food chain – famous for its chicken sandwich – arrived in Britain in 2021
- From today, two limited-edition spicy main courses can be ordered in UK stores
Popeyes is launching three sizzling items in UK stores today, which is great news for spice lovers.
The New Orleans-born chicken brand is shaking things up with the addition of two new limited-edition menu items: the Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich and Buffalo Saucin’ Wings.
The mouthwatering Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich puts a spicy twist on Popeyes’ famous Chicken Sandwich, blending spicy Buffalo with the flavors of cooling Ranch.
The sandwich features a crispy fried chicken breast, marinated for 12 hours in Popeyes’ signature blend of Louisiana herbs and spices, then slathered with hot Buffalo sauce, cooling Ranch and fresh pickles and nestled in a warm brioche bun.
Meanwhile, following their success with fans in the US, the fiery Buffalo Saucin’ Wings marks the first time sauced wings have graced Popeyes’ restaurant and drive-thru menus in Britain.

Available in 5, 8 or 12 wings – or as part of a meal, including fries and a drink – the wings are a must-try for fans looking to spice up their order.
Drizzled with Popeyes proprietary spicy Buffalo sauce, Buffalo Saucin’ Wings are packed with flavor in every bite.
But that’s not all: the Popeyes UK menu also includes the juicy and smoky Louisiana BBQ Wrap.
This tasty wrap is made with juicy Popeyes chicken tenders, bold barbecue sauce, and smoked cheese, all wrapped in a soft tortilla.
The delicious new menu items will be available today, Tuesday, March 19, at all Popeyes restaurants and drive-thrus nationwide and for delivery to all locations.
Dave Hoskins, Head of Food at Popeyes UK said: “We are delighted to announce the launch of Popeyes Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich and Buffalo Saucin’ Wings.
“This is the first time sauce wings have appeared on Popeyes restaurant and drive-thru menus in the UK, following their success with fans in the US.”
He added, “Both the sandwich and wings are made with our in-house developed sauces, created by our team after fan requests for more Popeyes flavor combinations.

“Designed to be spicy with a hint of heat, and paired with cooling Ranch, we’re confident both new additions will set the nation’s taste buds popping – and we can’t wait for people to try them.”
The launch of the smoky and spicy menu editions at Popeyes follows the national rollout of Popeyes Brekkie Menu.
Fans don’t have to wait until lunch or dinner time to sink their teeth into Cajun-spiced food, as Popeyes launched an expanded breakfast menu at UK locations in February.
Designed to shake up the UK grab-and-go breakfast scene, the menu offers a mouthwatering range of breakfast favorites with a New Orleans twist, including breakfast sandwiches, muffins, biscuits and Cajun Hash Browns.
The menu puts a New Orleans twist on the country’s favorite breakfast classics and features a whopping 22 items to choose from, including the star of the show: the tasty Big Cajun Breakfast Roll, available for £4.99.
