Popeyes Coming to Crossroads Station

A short time ago I mentioned that Popeyes was going to built in the former Hakim Optical on West Portage. Now we have a Popeyes announcement for the east of Winnipeg on Regent at Crossroad Station.

The closing of Payless Shoes across North America left a glut of real estate in many communities including Winnipeg where we had several locations. Some of those locations are attracting interest while others sit empty as most of the continent looks to find new uses for retail space.

In the case of Crossroad Station the wait for a new use came quick. The popularity of Popeyes in Winnipeg is evident any time you drive past Seasons of Tuxedo. The location there is always busy both inside the store  and the drive-thru. There is no doubt that the location on Regent will be extremely popular.

Also part of the complex where Popeyes will be located is an EB Games and an Ultracuts.

Zoning is just going through so expect a few months to pass before we see Crossroad Station Popeyes go up but should be ready for fall/winter of 2019.

  1. This is Crossroads Station. Kildonan Crossing is across and originally I heard Popeys was going beside Ben & Florentine.

  2. I corrected to Crossroads.

    Think they were looking at a few locations in that area.

  3. Yes, I'm sure Kildonan Crossing was one of them. Popeyes Chicken coming to Chief Peguis & Henderson beside the BP along with 9Round Fitness and Qdoba. Popeyes Chicken is also coming to Garden City.
