Fans of the national pub chain J D Wetherspoon will be delighted to learn it's announced plans to open a new venue in Leeds, with £2.25 million set to be invested for developing the site.
Spoons announced the as of yet unnamed pub, which is expected to be called The Angel, will open in Wetherby. It has exchanged contracts to acquire the building of the Sant' Angelo Italian Restaurant on High Street.
This comes after the Italian restaurant announced it was shutting down due to the rising energy costs after 13 years of operating. The pub chain giant hopes to complete the transaction by early October, with the creation of between 50 to 60 jobs.
