Popeyes is set to launch a special menu in collaboration with the popular horror franchise, “Five Nights at Freddy’s,” coinciding with the release of the upcoming film “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2.” The new Freddy Fazbear Crunch Menu will be available starting November 17 at participating locations across the United States. This marks Popeyes’ first promotional tie-in with the franchise, which has garnered a dedicated fanbase since its inception.
The Freddy Fazbear Crunch Menu features two distinct meal bundles designed to deliver a unique dining experience. The first option, the Freddy Fazbear Deluxe Box, priced at $12.99, includes three classic or spicy chicken tenders seasoned with a garlic parmesan rub, Cheesy Bites served with marinara sauce, a Cupcake Cup, and a drink. The second choice, the Freddy Fazbear Box, is offered at $7.99 and consists of the same chicken tenders along with Cheesy Bites and marinara.
In addition to the meal bundles, customers can opt for à la carte items. These include Cheesy Bites with Marinara for $3.99, featuring garlic-crusted white cheddar cheese curds, and the Cupcake Cup, a strawberry-flavored cake topped with pink icing, also priced at $3.99.
Innovative Collaboration with a Fan-Favorite Franchise
Popeyes aims to create a memorable connection between its menu offerings and the cinematic experience of “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2.” According to Amy Alarcón, the chain’s vice president of culinary, the collaboration reflects a playful approach to flavor. “At Popeyes, we love playing with bold flavors, and what better playground than the world of ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s’?” Alarcón stated. “Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria is an iconic part of the film, so we had a blast reimagining that fun, over-the-top energy through our menu. It’s our way of giving fans a delicious taste of the movie’s universe, where that iconic Popeyes flavor meets a little bit of nostalgic pizzeria mystery.”
To further enhance the promotional experience, select Popeyes restaurants will offer limited-edition collectible sticker packs featuring characters from the film. This initiative not only aims to draw in fans of the franchise but also to create a unique dining event that aligns with the film’s release.
“Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” is scheduled to premiere in theaters on December 5, generating excitement among both moviegoers and fans of the franchise. With this partnership, Popeyes seeks to stand out in the competitive fast-food landscape while engaging with a popular cultural phenomenon.
