A national pizza chain appears to be opening a Harrogate branch.

Rudy’s Pizza Napoletana, often referred to as just Rudy’s, launched in Manchester in 2015 and prides itself on making 'true Neapolitan pizza'.

With sites spanning across the country, the company – part of hospitality group Mission Mars – now has its sights set on Harrogate.

An opening date has not been confirmed, but the company is currently advertising the role of head pizza chef at the Harrogate site.

Little detail of the job role has published online – other than the £36,000 annual salary – and, at the time of writing, the website says it is “temporarily unable to display this vacancy”.

The company was also hiring a general manager through LinkedIn, but the job advert has now closed. It said:

Harrogate, we are coming for you, and we want you to come and join our lively famiglia!

The location of the local Rudy's site has not been confirmed, but the news comes after the Stray Ferret yesterday (December 21) revealed Banyan on Harrogate’s John Street is set to close. 

Rudy’s in Harrogate will be one of many Yorkshire branches, with sites in York, Leeds, Chapel Allerton, Headingley and Sheffield.

The Stray Ferret has contacted Rudy’s Pizza Napoletana for more information.
