Our team gave a warm Glasgow welcome to the famous Louisiana chicken brand Popeyes Louisiana Chicken UK 🐔 . Opening the 50th UK restaurant and the second location for Glasgow was no mean feat following the traffic stopping success of the first store in Barrhead but trust chicken lovers to queue for 23 HOURS to be the first to get their hands on the famous chicken sandwich. We also invited The Darcy Twins down for a sneak peek ahead of launch before offering incredible money-can't-buy prizes to the first 50 guests in the queue, including custom Popeyes sneakers designed by Custom For You and Box Fresh with press on nails from House of Naf.
