Chicken Wraps, anyone? 

Calling all Popeyes fans, your favorite chicken chain is dropping their signature flavor to your summer with the launch of the new Chicken Wraps! That’s right; it features the same legendary Louisiana flavor but with a whole new twist. They’re wrapped and packed, which makes them perfect as an on-the-go meal if you’re in a hurry!

For a limited time at participating locations, Popeyes is offering these Chicken Wraps as they feature everything you love about their chicken. Each of them consists of hand-breaded and battered chicken tenders, crisp lettuce, shredded cheese, and crunchy pickles. What’s great is that these wraps are topped with your choice of Classic, Spicy, or Honey Mustard spread, all rolled in a soft and warm tortilla inspired by the brand’s famous biscuits. With three variations, each wrap costs $3.99. 

Looking for refreshers to match your Chicken Wraps? Say no more, as Popeyes is here to save the day with their new Blueberry Lemonade and Tea beverage lineup, just in time for summer. These new drinks build on the brand’s viral Pickle Lemonade hype! Now, what’s included in the berry-infused offerings? There’s the Blueberry Lemonade (Chilled or Frozen), Blueberry Cane Sweet Tea, and Blueberry Unsweet Tea

Chef Amy Alarcon, VP of Culinary Innovation at Popeyes, said that they’ve taken their iconic Chicken Tenders and wrapped them up to offer something new to guests in a portable way. She added that the brand wants to create Chicken Wraps that are still undeniably Popeyes. One way to do it is by infusing the flavors from their famous biscuit into their wraps, as their signature flavors shine through together with the chicken. 

Great news, they’re available starting today (June 2, 2025) at participating locations nationwide. You can also get them via the Popeyes app and website while supplies last. Go get them while they’re hot! 🤩

What About McDonald’s Snack Wraps?

We know what you’re thinking: Popeyes is coming for McDonald’s with their new Chicken Wraps! Well, it so happened that Popeyes gave us the first taste of Chicken Wraps way before McDonald’s gave us their Snack Wraps. Popeyes’ Chicken Wraps also have the same filling as McDonald’s, from crispy chicken strips to lettuce, cheese, and sauce, all wrapped in a tortilla. The sauce is the only difference you may see (and taste). 

But don’t worry, just yet; McDonald’s is still planning to release its Snack Wraps. They just kept pulling it back for unknown reasons. In case you don’t know, McDonald’s official account shared a cryptic social media post hinting they will return to all U.S. locations by the 14th day of a month that was not specified. All we know is that they may drop by this year. Let’s cross our fingers that they drop one of their most-awaited menu item real soon!

If you think that lobsters are only served at fine dining restaurants, think again. McDonald’s is a testament to that with their McLobster, but this time, it’s Panera! They will bring back two favorite seasonal menu items: Lobster Roll and Lobster Mac & Cheese. They hit the Panera menus back on May 21. However, they’re only available at select Panera cafes in the Northeast. 

Check them out:

During this tropical season, Yogurtland is introducing new fruity flavors that match the hot (or warm) weather. These flavors are unique enough that you can’t find them in any other froyo place. But if you still want that fruity tropical taste of summer, then here’s the flavors to choose from: 

  • Spicy Strawberry Watermelon Sorbet – This treat is made with real strawberries, watermelon, plus a hint of chili for a little spice. The flavor is inspired by a tropical street fruit and local markets that are vibrant enough. 
  • Guava Passion Tart – Crafted with real passion fruit and guava that are combined to create a refreshing escape in the tropical breeze. 

To top your frozen yogurt treats, Yogurtland is offering the new Ocean Gummies and Pineapple Chamoy Gummies to customize your froyo. They will be available for a limited time this summer, so make sure you’ve topped up your treats before they’re gone.

From The Club

Popeye’s Chicken Wraps will surely be the talk of the town, as it looks like they’re coming after McDonald’s Snack Wraps! 🤣 But for me, it all differs with the taste of the breaded chicken inside. I’m up to try the two wrapped treats as soon as the Snack Wraps come out. Crossing my fingers that the cryptic 14th post will be June 14, so in that way, people can start having the summer of wraps!
