American restaurant chain looks to open in Lewisham town centre
A new branch of American chicken restaurant Popeyes is set to open in Lewisham.
The site is Unit 1 of Lewisham shopping centre currently home to Claire’s Accessories.
Popeyes recently open in Woolwich as part of a UK-wide expansion. They opened their first UK branch in Stratford last year.
The company began like in Louisiana 50 years ago. They’ve recently secured £50 million in funding for expansion in the UK.
Lewisham shopping centre is eventually due for demolition with the site rebuilt, though that’s some years away.

This Popeyes will be a few metres from the Chopstix that occupies the old Carphonewarehouse store. I’m not a fast food eater, but Lewisham will welcome another food on the go business.
Factory farmed chicken. Yum
