Low Risk NYC Grade: A

Across the available record, Popeyes has six inspections on file, the first dated 2024. The most recent visit was on Apr 3, 2025. A low risk rating suggests inspectors haven't found much to be concerned about lately.

The trend has been moving in the right direction: five violations last time, one this time.

The pattern that stands out is non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material, which has been cited three times.

That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Bronx restaurant scores 77. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
