A New Sandwich From the Real Louisiana Kitchen, THAT Chicken from Popeyes, Buttermilk Biscuit and Sweet Honey Sauce Come Together in One Bold Menu Item
MIAMI, Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As a Real Louisiana Kitchen, Popeyes® doesn’t just serve bold flavor, it’s the authority on it. Popeyes’ culinary team is always looking for new ways to bring bold flavors together, and they saw an opportunity to combine some of the menu’s most beloved staples in an entirely new way. It’s no surprise fans have long found their own ways to combine the brand’s signature chicken and biscuits with honey on social media; but now, Popeyes is putting its culinary expertise behind that same craving, transforming it into their newest sandwich innovation, perfect for any meal of the day, available beginning September 28.
The Honey Chicken Biscuit is a simple, yet bold innovation: THAT Chicken from Popeyes on a larger version of our iconic buttermilk biscuit, paired with two sachets of sweet honey sauce, all for just $5.* A recipe that could only come from a Real Louisiana Kitchen. This sandwich brings Popeyes bold flavor and culinary credentials into a delicious, handheld bite, balancing crunchy and soft, savory and sweet, in a combination true to the brand’s Louisiana roots. This is signature menu innovation at its heart, proof that some of the biggest ideas come from reimagining what’s already cooking in our kitchens.
“At Popeyes, quality and bold flavor guide everything we do, and we’re always looking for new ways to bring our most iconic items together,” said Matt Rubin, Popeyes Chief Marketing Officer. “The Honey Chicken Biscuit is exactly that: our craveable chicken, our iconic buttermilk biscuit, and sweet honey sauce, crafted into one new sandwich. It’s simple, it’s unmistakably Popeyes, and it shows the kind of culinary care that turns flavors people already love into something entirely new.”
The Honey Chicken Biscuit arrives on the heels of “THAT Chicken from Popeyes,” the brand’s new national campaign celebrating the bold flavor, handcrafted preparation and unmistakable generosity that have made Popeyes chicken iconic for more than 50 years. Popeyes isn’t just celebrating THAT Chicken from Popeyes, they’re finding even more craveable ways to serve it to their loyal guests.
The new Honey Chicken Biscuit will be available at participating Popeyes restaurants, the Popeyes app, and Popeyes.com nationwide beginning September 28 for $5.*
