Love That Seafood: Popeyes is Bringing Back the Shrimp Tackle Box Alongside New Wildberry Beignets

Y'all love our chicken, but you haven't truly experienced Popeyes culinary mastery until you try our Shrimp and Wildberry Beignets.

Popeyes is known for crispy, delicious fried chicken, but loyal fans know those Louisiana flavors aren’t just from the farm - we also do a bit of fishing. Did you know Popeyes is (almost) the #1 best-selling QSR shrimp in America*?  In celebration of that, Popeyes is bringing back the famous butterfly shrimp in the the Shrimp Tackle Box starting March 22nd.

The annual fan-favorite features eight plump and juicy butterfly shrimp marinated in an authentic blend of Louisiana seasonings and then battered in Popeyes traditional southern crispy coating. These delicious shrimp come bundled with a signature side and a hot buttery biscuit for only $6** in store, or for $5 when you order pickup on the Popeyes® App or on Popeyes.com. If you’ve been craving some seafood and still want some chicken, we even have a Surf-and-Turf combo for the best of both worlds.

And for those looking for a sweet new menu item, Popeyes new Wildberry Beignets are a warm and light New Orleans style pastry with a mixed berry filling and covered with powdered sugar. The Wild Berry Beignets are available in 3pc, 6pc and 12pc options with prices starting at $1.99.

Both menu items will be available at participating U.S. Popeyes® locations nationwide starting Tuesday, March 22nd for a limited-time only.
