A new pizza restaurant is set to open in Warrington’s Golden Square Shopping Centre on 12 April, creating 15 hospitality jobs in the process as well a speciality pizzas for Vegans.
Chester-based food group Pheby Food Concepts Group Ltd has taken over the glass-fronted former Prezzo building in Old Market Place, and is set to reopen it as its third Dough Dough wood-fired pizza restaurant and takeaway. As well as using local contractors to refit the building, PFC Group Ltd will create 15 new roles for hospitality workers in the Warrington area.
“The hospitality industry has been hit incredibly hard in the past year,” said PFC Group Ltd owner Des Pheby. “However our brands have weathered the storm well thanks to our early adoption of ‘ghost’ or dark kitchens (a kitchen set up for food delivery only). So I’m delighted that we’re now in a position to be expanding our Dough Dough brand with the launch of a new site in Warrington, and with it, the creation of jobs for local people.”
Dough Dough has two further sites in Chester and Liverpool, with a fourth opening soon in Derby.
The Warrington site will open on 12 April – the same day the government’s ‘Roadmap out of Lockdown’ aims to have all hospitality venues open to serve customers outdoors, with no curfew and no requirement to have a substantial meal in order to have an alcoholic drink. All customers must order via table service however.
Seating up to 40 customers outside, Dough Dough Warrington will have covered, heated alfresco areas available to pre-book, perfect for enjoying a meal or drink whatever the weather.
“Dough Dough restaurants are all about good times with good people and we think the good people of Warrington will love what we have to offer them,” added Mr Pheby. Just last week Dough Dough announced it now has products on its menu which have been certified with The Vegan Society’s Vegan Trademark. Dishes including the Vegan Margarita and Vegan Ortolana will carry the Vegan Trademark on Dough Dough’s menus.
