A new pizza restaurant is set to open in an empty unit in Castle Quarter.

The Redwell Vault Pizzeria is the latest business to announce plans to move into the top floor of the shopping centre. 

The business currently operates out of Redwell Brewing Company and Taproom in Trowse and this will be the first additional branch of the popular restaurant. 

Owner Sam Brown said: "It is really exciting to be expanding the brand at Redwell.

"We really feel that this will complement the other offerings already in Castle Quarter and add to the overall experience."

The site was once the home of Hank's Dirty vegan restaurant before it relocated to the former home of Cocina on level four of Castle Quarter in 2023.

The pizzeria will be selling a range of toppings, including vegetarian and vegan options.

Mr Brown said: "We will be serving our core best sellers, which have all been created from scratch.
