New Fast Food Restaurant Comes to Windsor Shopping Center

The new restaurant will be located in what was once an drive-thru McDonald's.

The Town Planning and Zoning Commission accepted an application for a new fast-food restaurant to be located in the Windsor Shopping Center: a Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen.

Popeyes will be located in what was once a McDonald's.

The storefront has been empty for years, according to Town Planner Eric Barz, and the owner of the property will be combining the front business space with what was once a beauty salon to the building's rear.

A wall will need to be knocked out to combine the two units.

On the application, the owner said the establishment of a Popeyes in the shopping center will bring new jobs to town, improve the building's exterior and interior, and keep locals from driving out of town to go to a Popeyes.
