Popeyes Louisiana Chicken - Reading The Gateway

Reading’s Gateway has a new contender in the fried chicken game, and Popeyes Louisiana Chicken is making some serious noise.

Signature dishes like the Classic Chicken Sandwich and the Bone-In Chicken are the stars, each piece marinated for hours in a bold Creole spice blend.
