Being served up on the Christmas menu are six new items that combine the flavours of New Orleans with British festive classics, from as little as £1.50:

• The Festive Superstack Sandwich
• The Festive Feastin’ Roll
• The Chicken Festive Feastin’ Roll
• Sage & Onion Hash Brown
• Frostin’ Mint Shake made with Oreo
• Caramel Latte

The Festive Superstack Sandwich is a “next-level” take on the fan-favourite Popeyes chicken sandwich.

It features a juicy, 100% fresh Shatter Crunchin’ chicken breast topped with Emmental cheese, a tasty Sage & Onion Hash Brown, plus fresh pickles and lettuce for extra crunch.

The tasty combo is then stacked inside a soft brioche bun and topped with a swirl of spicy and sweet Cranberry Habanero Sauce and mayo.

It combines the poppin’ flavours of New Orleans with the comfort of a classic Christmas roast – and is the new kid on the block for annual festive sandwich competition.

Popeyes has also revealed its first-ever festive breakfast roll with the launch of the Festive Feastin’ Roll.

A festive version of the much-loved Popeyes Big Cajun Roll, this brekkie treat consists of a sausage patty, four juicy bacon rashers, a free range egg, a Sage & Onion Hash Brown, all topped off with Cranberry Habanero Sauce in a perfectly toasted premium brioche bun.

Fans can wash the festive breakfast roll with the new Caramel Latte, with a sweet kick to start your day.

For those who fancy a bit more cluck for their breakfast, The Chicken Festive Feastin’ Roll will also be launched across select restaurants nationwide – featuring a Popeyes Signature Herby Chicken patty, topped with a free range egg and American cheese, Cranberry Habanero Sauce and finished with a tasty Sage & Onion Hash Brown.

Fans can treat themselves to a Sage & Onion Hash Brown as part of a meal, or as a tasty standalone side.

This New Orleans spin on sage & onion stuffing combines the best-selling Popeyes Hash Brown with the traditional flavours of this iconic festive side.

Fried-chicken lovers can also opt for the Festive Superstack Box Meal to get more chicken and more bang for their buck this holiday season.

Combining the Festive Superstack Sandwich with a choice of two Tenders, three Hot Wings or one-piece Signature Chicken, served with regular fries and regular drink, all from just £11.49.

Fans can round off their meal with the launch of the limited-edition Frostin’ Mint Shake made with Oreo.

An indulgent combo of festive minty flavours, the shake is made using thick Jersey cream, with a fresh minty kick, and topped with crunchin’ Oreo pieces.

It’s a frosty treat perfect for festive indulgence.

Dave Hoskins, Head of Food at Popeyes, said: “This festive season we want to give our guests a taste of the traditional holiday flavours everyone knows and loves, but with a true Popeyes twist.

“We’re proud to reveal our first ever festive menu in the UK, and what better way to do it than with a nod to our New Orleans heritage.

“We know our fans love when we put a spin on a classic, and our Sage & Onion hash browns are a delicious all-day way to enjoy the flavours of a roast potato – what’s not to love?

“We’ve also snuck one into our new Festive Superstack Sandwich alongside our world-class Shatter Crunchin’ chicken, Emmental, and some cranberry habanero sauce, giving our guests a familiar taste of the holidays with an unexpected Louisiana kick.”

The Festive Feastin’ Menu is available from November 5, in nationwide Popeyes restaurants, drive-thrus and via delivery.
