Pizzeria to open in former Barclays Bank building

Rudy’s Pizza Napoletana has revealed it is to transform the former Barclays Bank building on Bury New Road in Prestwich which has stood vacant since August 2022.

The spacious 3,000 sq ft venue will offer 150 covers, including a 30-seat covered courtyard.

The annoucement follows the success of venues in Didsbury, Sale, and most recently Altrincham and will mark the eighth location in Greater Manchester and the first in North Manchester.

Neal Bates of Rudy’s said: “We can’t wait to re-open the doors of this previously unloved venue in Prestwich and share our passion for Neapolitan pizza with our North Manchester fans and future Rudy’s lovers.

“With its ever popular high street, lively vibe and welcoming community, Prestwich is the perfect place for our next adventure, and we look forward to joining the incredible food and drink spots already here and contributing to the suburb’s success.”

The new Rudy’s Prestwich will create up to 40 jobs.
