Who We Are
Born in New Orleans in 1972, Popeyes began with one small restaurant and a bold idea — to serve legendary Louisiana-style chicken like no one else.
Now we’re bringing that same flavour, energy, and southern spirit to Ireland — building a community of passionate food lovers and future leaders.
We’re on a mission to become Ireland’s most loved quick-service restaurant brand — and this is your chance to grow with us.
