Rudy's to open new Leeds restaurant and they are giving away free pizza

Rudy’s Pizza Napoletana will be opening a new restaurant in Leeds and are offering a limited number of free pizzas.

The new Rudy’s, following in the footsteps of a Leeds city centre branch and one in Chapel Allerton, is one of many exciting 2023 openings we have to look forward to. The new restaurant and takeaway will be based in Headingley.

The Otley Road arrival is expected to open in the spring. Rudy’s first launched in Manchester back in 2015. There are branches based across the country with the third Leeds restaurant sure to cause excitement among fans.

Rudy’s follows the authentic Neapolitan tradition of pizza making, serving classic recipes such as marinara, margherita and calabrese, all originating from Naples, the birthplace of pizza. Rudy’s dough is made fresh daily using Caputo ‘00’ flour which ferments for at least 24 hours, alongside ingredients imported from Naples, including San Marzano tomatoes grown on fields next to Mount Vesuvius, and Fior di Latte mozzarella.

The dough is cooked in a Stefano Ferrara oven for just 60 seconds – resulting in a soft and light pizza.

Roles are being advertised for the new restaurant. You can find out more here.

Neal Bates, Rudy’s managing director, said: “We are delighted to announce that our next Rudy’s site will be located on Headingley’s bustling Otley Road. Leeds has been incredibly welcoming to the Rudy’s famiglia since we first opened here in 2020, and we can’t wait to expand our sites in this city. Headingley is a great location for Rudy’s, and we can’t wait to open our doors this Spring.”
