The restaurant will continue to offer children’s parties in addition to featuring a click-and-collect service, allowing visitors to pre-order and easily pick up their pizzas from a takeaway point leading directly into the play park

Papa John’s first opened in Ribby Hall Village in 2009 and, with the new premises granted a new 5-year franchise license, the restaurant chain is set to enjoy a continued partnership with the establishment. The old site will be repurposed into an extension of Ribby Hall Village’s nursery, adding 36 new child spaces to accommodate the growing local community.
