A Boroughbridge takeaway has opened a second branch in Harrogate.
Bozza Fodder, which was first established in the kitchen of the Fox and Hounds pub in 2019, began serving food at The Manhattan on Beech Avenue last Thursday.
Owner Mark Davies, who moved from Teeside to Boroughbridge, said he hopes to bring a taste of the northeast to north Yorkshire and introduce Harrogate residents to a “proper Teeside parmo”.
Mr Davies said he launched Bozza Fodder, which currently offers takeaway, eat-in and delivery services, after realising Boroughbridge “did not have a food delivery service of its own”.
He said after struggling to find IT work locally, he turned to the kitchen to develop his skills.
Mr Davies and his partner Rachael have since offered the town traditional takeaway-style food, including pizzas, burgers and wraps, which he said is “nearly all made in-house”.
Now embarking on a new venture in Harrogate, Mr Davies said:
“I play a lot of pool and started playing at the Manhattan club in Harrogate.
“When I told the owner about my venture in Boroughbridge, he too had an unused kitchen which we thought could be used to benefit us both.”
Bozza Fodder’s chicken parmo.
Bozza Fodder Harrogate also offers both eat-in and takeaway food, as well as delivery services around the centre of the town and as far as Jennyfields and Starbeck.
Chicken parmos, pizzas, gyros, toasted sandwiches and desserts are all available at the new Harrogate site.
Mr Davies said people can expect “the same great service we provide in Boroughbridge but with a few twists to the menu”, adding:
“It’s very exciting times and I’m looking forward to seeing new faces and getting good feedback. Harrogate is a big place, but we have equally big ambitions!
“My mum passed away not long after I started the business, and she always wanted me to do well.
“I’ve put my heart into it for her and I hope she’d be proud how far we have come.”
Both Bozza Fodder branches are open Monday to Friday, from 4pm to 10pm, and 1pm to 10pm on Saturdays.
