New bottomless pizza restaurant Moto Pizza opens on Fore Street

Essex-based chain Moto Pizza has opened its first Ipswich restaurant, offering unlimited pizza and 50% off deals to celebrate its launch.

The big picture: The restaurant, which opened on Wednesday, has taken over the former Takayama site on Fore Street, marking the chain's third location after successful venues in Chelmsford and Colchester.

Why it matters: This brings a new dining concept to Ipswich, with the restaurant offering unlimited pizza during lunch hours between Tuesday and Friday.

The details:

  • Opening hours are 12:00 to 22:00 Tuesday to Saturday

  • Sundays operate on reduced hours of 12:00 to 20:00

  • The venue is closed on Mondays

  • Walk-in tables are available for groups of 1-4 people

  • Larger groups of 5 or more need to book online

Opening promotion: To celebrate it's opening and test their service, the restaurant is offering 50% bottomless pizza until Sunday 2 February.

Background:

  • The site was previously home to Takayama Japanese and Korean restaurant

  • Takayama relocated to St Nicholas Street in April 2023, with the site remaining vacant until now

  • Initial plans for the site proposed a venue called Papas Pizza before eventually becoming Moto Pizza

The bottom line: Moto Pizza's expansion into Ipswich represents another vote of confidence for the town centre, as the chain brings its third restaurant to Suffolk's county town.
