You can also get the Chicken Wraps Bundle, with two wraps and a premium lemonade, for $9.99. See our full Popeyes Chicken Wraps guide.

Two new Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwiches

Also launched on May 4, 2026, the Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwich ($5.49) adds sweet and smoky Honey BBQ sauce to Popeyes’ classic fried chicken filet, with pickles on a toasted brioche bun.

Full Popeyes Menu by Category

Signature Chicken (bone-in)

Popeyes’ bone-in chicken is marinated for 12 hours in Louisiana seasoning, then hand-battered and fried. You can order it Classic (mild) or Spicy, and both cost the same. It is sold in combos (2 or 3 pieces with a side, biscuit and drink), and in larger orders for groups. See the Popeyes Family Meal guide for bucket sizes.

Chicken Sandwiches

The Classic and Spicy Chicken Sandwiches use a buttermilk-battered chicken breast filet with barrel-cured pickles and mayo on a brioche bun. The 2026 lineup also includes the Bacon & Cheese versions and the new Honey BBQ sandwiches. Full Chicken Sandwich menu →

Tenders, Wings and Nuggets

Hand-battered tenders come in Classic, Spicy and Blackened, with a dipping sauce. Popeyes also sells bone-in and boneless wings in several sauces. Details: Tenders, Wings and Nuggets.

Combo Meals and Boxes

Combos add a regular side, a biscuit and a drink to your chicken, sandwich or tenders. The Big Box is a drink-free value meal that returns several times a year. See Popeyes Combo Meals and Big Box & Bigger Box.

Sides

Popeyes’ core sides are Cajun Fries, Red Beans & Rice, Mashed Potatoes with Cajun Gravy, Coleslaw and Homestyle Mac & Cheese (Mac & Cheese usually costs a little extra in deals). Every side comes in regular and large sizes. Full Sides menu →

Popeyes Nutrition and Allergens

💰 Tips to Save Money at Popeyes

• Order in the app. Many deals, like the $5 Faves, are app-only or must be asked for at the counter.
• Feeding a group? The $20 Family Meal (9 pieces, a large side and 4 biscuits) is usually cheaper than ordering combos separately.
• Skip delivery markups. Prices on delivery apps are usually higher than in-store prices.
• Watch for the Big Box. It has returned twice in 2026 and is one of the best-value meals in fast food when available.
