Popeyes has officially opened a new West Broadway location, adding another spot to Metro Vancouver’s growing fried chicken scene.
Taking over the former Moderne Burger spot, which had been vacant since 2023, the fast-food giant is now serving up its crispy, buttery, and boldly seasoned fried chicken in a prime location.
If you’re a fried chicken fan, you already know the hype.
Popeyes, the Louisiana-born chain that has been delivering affordable, flavour-packed fast food since 1972, has been expanding aggressively across Metro Vancouver.
Just two years ago, there were barely any locations in the area.
Now, the brand is popping up everywhere, including the long-awaited Metrotown outpost that opened in December 2024.
This new West Broadway location shares space with Tim Hortons, creating a one-stop shop for iced capps and spicy chicken sandwiches.
The bright orange cafeteria seating and modern fast-food setup make it a casual, no-fuss spot to dive into some crispy tenders and buttery biscuits.
With Broadway SkyTrain construction shaking things up, West Broadway has seen plenty of changes.
While some spots like Yushang Hot Pot and Simit Bakery didn’t make it through last year, the area has also welcomed new cafes, including Aidan’s Cafe and AVIK Cafe near City Hall Station.
The addition of Popeyes means another major chain is betting on Broadway’s future as a go-to food destination.
Expect all the Popeyes staples, including crispy fried chicken, the famous chicken sandwich, Cajun fries, and buttery, flaky biscuits.
Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen is now open on West Broadway, replacing Moderne Burger.
