Common questions.

How many calories in a Popeyes chicken sandwich?
Classic Chicken Sandwich: 690 cal (28g protein, 50g carbs, 42g fat). Spicy: 700. Deluxe: 725. Bacon & Cheese: 820. Blackened Chicken Sandwich (no breading, no bun frying): 340 cal — a legit lighter alternative.
How many calories in Popeyes tenders?
3-pc Handcrafted Tenders: 375 cal, 30g protein. 5-pc: 630 cal, 50g protein. Per tender: 125 cal, 10g protein. Sauce cups add 80–150 cal each.
How many calories in Popeyes Cajun fries?
Regular: 490 cal (6g protein, 58g carbs, 26g fat). Large: 720. The Cajun seasoning itself is essentially free — the calories are the fries.
What's the healthiest thing at Popeyes?
Blackened Chicken Sandwich (340 cal, 27g protein) — the standout. Also strong: Original Leg (160 cal, 13g protein), Mashed Potatoes w/ Gravy (130), Red Beans and Rice (260 / 8g protein). Skip the biscuit (260 cal) if you're keeping the meal under 500.
How many calories in a Popeyes biscuit?
260 calories: 4g protein, 26g carbs, 15g fat. It's a Southern-style buttery biscuit — heavy for one piece of bread but iconic to the meal.
How many calories in Popeyes red beans and rice?
Regular serving: 260 cal (8g protein, 30g carbs, 12g fat). It's under-appreciated as a side — more protein than any of the other sides and lower fat than mac & cheese or coleslaw.
How many calories in Popeyes bone-in chicken?
Original or Spicy (same calories, different heat): Breast 380, Thigh 280, Leg 160, Wing 210. A 2-piece meal (breast + leg) is 540 cal for the chicken alone — add mashed and biscuit and you're at 930.
How many calories in Popeyes nuggets?
6-pc: 260 cal (15g protein). 8-pc: 320. 12-pc: 490. Nuggets are hand-battered chicken breast pieces, similar profile to the tenders but smaller.
