The Dorchester Reporter reports the Boston Licensing Board has denied the chain's request for a food-serving license for its proposed Codman Square outlet "with prejudice" after hearing from residents that the square already has more than enough greasy, fatty food in the form of McDonald's and KFC. The vote means Popeyes will have to wait at least a year before reapplying for a license there.

Obligatory Red Sox reference here.

The Huntington News reports student government has given the OK for a proposed Popeyes in the student-center space originally set aside for Chick-fil-A.

The News reports a Student Government Association poll found more support for Popeyes than two competing fried-chicken chains suggested by university officials and that Popeyes business practices gave students nothing to cluck about.

That new Popeye's is open in the American Legion Highway shopping center in Roslindale (the one with the Dunkin' Donuts), and it's definitely not hurting for business. I stopped in last night at about 8:20 and there were 29 people in line in front of me. I don't think I've ever seen that many people waiting for fast food. It still wasn't too slow considering - I got out in about 10 minutes. On my way out the door, the line was as long as when I got in. The cashier told me "it's like this 24/7" although not literally, since it's only open until 10. The food's good, at least for fast food.
