Popeye’s legendary Flounder Fish Sandwich is making its triumphant return to Popeyes locations nationwide. This isn’t the first time this crispy catch has graced the menu, and it makes a return about once a year.
First launched in 2021, the Flounder Fish Sandwich quickly became a cult favorite. Its secret? A succulent flounder filet, marinated in Popeyes’ signature Louisiana herbs and spices, then golden-fried to perfection. This flavorful fish sits enthroned on a toasted brioche bun, nestled alongside crisp pickles and your choice of either classic tartar sauce or a spicy spread for an extra kick.
