Pan-Asian noodle chain Chopstix has opened its 71st UK store - in Newcastle-under-Lyme.
The brand has moved into the old Edinburgh Woollen Mill shop on High Street and is ready to serve up customer favourites including salt and pepper chicken, chicken katsu curry and caramel drizzle chicken.
The Newcastle-under-Lyme store has been developed alongside franchisee group Sparta Foods, who have previously opened and operated Chopstix's very first dark kitchen trial site in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent.
The store is the first of many to be opened alongside Sparta Foods, with plans to open multiple Chopstix units over the next few years.
Rob Burns, marketing director for Chopstix, said: "We have such a loyal set of customers and we're thrilled to be able to open a store in Newcastle-under-Lyme.
"We can't wait for customers to get a taste of what Chopstix has to offer. We're here to mix things up in a faster, fresher, tastier way."
The noodle bar's popular dishes are also available to order from Uber Eats, Just Eat and Deliveroo.
