**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.
