Rudy's Pizza Napoletana has announced it will be opening the doors of its much-anticipated Harrogate restaurant next weekend.
On Saturday 11th April, Rudy’s will bring its fan-favourite true Neapolitan pizza to the new John Street restaurant - and bookings for Rudy’s Harrogate are now open.
The new pizzeria will open in the 2,800-square-foot unit, the former Banyan Bar and Restaurant, with approximately 120 covers in the pizzeria and 35 covers outside.
In anticipation of the opening, thousands of local pizza lovers have already secured themselves a free pizza through the Rudy’s Pizza on Us giveaway, which sees 3,000 free pizzas given to Rudy’s fans who sign up via the Rudy’s website.

The Harrogate pizzeria will also be hosting a dedicated charity evening on April 11th in partnership with the Harrogate Homeless Project.
Profits from this event will go directly to the charity’s work preventing homelessness and supporting those affected to move towards independent living.
More information and bookings for the event can be found at www.rudyspizza.co.uk/harrogate-charity-night.
Commenting on the new opening, Neal Bates of Rudy’s Pizza said:
“We’re really excited for our Harrogate launch and have been delighted by the response to our opening and our Pizza on Us offer.
“Whether you’re one of the lucky 3,000 joining us for free pizza, attending our charity evening with the Harrogate Homeless Project or simply keen to come along and experience a slice of Naples right here in Harrogate, we can’t wait to welcome you to the pizzeria from April 11th and establish ourselves as part of the town’s fantastic food and drink scene.”
Since launching in 2015, Rudy’s has grown from one base in Manchester to 36 pizzerias nationwide including restaurants in nearby York, central Leeds and Chapel Allerton, North Leeds.
The Harrogate pizzeria will be its second opening this year, with more plans in the pipeline for the rest of 2026.
