A POPULAR American chicken chain has teased the opening of its new store in Barrhead.
Popeyes has announced that its new drive-thru restaurant will be opening at the town's new retail park "later this year".
The restaurant will bring flavours of Louisiana to Scotland, with its signature 12-hour marinated chicken and original Southern biscuits and gravy.
They will also be serving brand-new breakfast items.
The new store will include a dining area for 56 people, with 16 seats outside.
Tom Crowley, CEO of Popeyes UK, said: "We are thrilled to announce that Popeyes will be opening in Scotland for the first time later this year.
"Opening restaurants in Scotland has been key for us since we first landed in the UK, and we're looking forward to opening across the country, starting with a drive-thru in Barrhead.
"Our recent openings have been some of the biggest to date, not just in the UK but for Popeyes globally, and we are confident that our launch in Scotland will prove just as popular."
