- Popeyes just brought back its Seafood Menu nationwide starting February 16, with shrimp, a fish sandwich, and a surf-and-turf combo.<\/li>\n
- The shrimp is getting four new dry rub options: Garlic Parmesan, Lemon Pepper, Buffalo, and Ghost Pepper.<\/li>\n
- Fried Pickles are back, too, after selling out during Popeyes’ pickle takeover last year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nFast-food fish is one of those things that makes me pause for half a second. But Popeyes is also one of the few chains that rarely flounders, and now it’s officially back in that lane with its Seafood Menu returning just in time for Mardi Gras season.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\nPopeyes<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n As of today, February 16, you can grab the Butterfly Shrimp Tackle Box with eight pieces of crispy shrimp, a regular side, and their iconic biscuit, or go for the Surf & Turf, which stacks shrimp with chicken tenders\u2014because Popeyes understands that sometimes it’s too hard to choose. But it’s the four brand-new dry rub options you can add to your shrimp order or tackle box that are sure to grab everyone’s attention: Garlic Parmesan, Lemon Pepper, Buffalo, and Ghost Pepper. <\/p>\n
\n If you’re more of a sandwich person, the Flounder Fish Sandwich is back, too, in both classic and spicy, featuring a flaky flounder fillet marinated in Popeyes’ Louisiana herbs and spices, battered, and fried until it’s doing the most. It’s listed at $5.99, same as the shrimp tackle box and surf-and-turf options, though prices can vary by location.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\nPopeyes<\/span><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n And how can we forget about the fried pickles? Popeyes brought them out during last year’s pickle menu takeover, and they reportedly sold out nationwide. Now they’re returning as a side for $3.99, served with ranch\u2014and yes, “crispy, golden-brown fried pickles battered in Popeyes signature seasoning” is as delicious as it sounds.<\/p>\n
If Popeyes wanted to make sure nobody leaves with just one item\u2014or at least several orders of the fried pickles\u2014mission accomplished.<\/p>\n
