THE UK's fastest-growing pizza takeaway chain is set to open up its doors in Dunfermline next week.

Fireaway will be serving up a feast for its customers from its Hospital Hill premises from Tuesday (January 17).

The firm currently has more than 130 stores and the West Fife branch will be the eighth in Scotland.

In 2021, Fireaway won Rising Star Pizza Chain of the Year at the PAPA Awards and those behind the pizzas say its success is based on attention to detail combined with a desire to be different.

Founder Mario Aleppo set out to create an unrivalled pizza experience by going to Italy and meeting farmers who now send him their choicest peeled tomatoes directly from Naples. He then negotiated with mills in northern Italy who prepare the flour to his own specifications.

The menu will provide pizza-lovers with a choice of four bases, four cheeses, four meats and 20 toppings, all available for the same price.

Among them is the Nutella Pizza, which is unique to Fireaway.

Mario said: “We like to innovate and have also introduced the full range of gluten-free and vegan options to ensure there is something for everyone.”

The new branch will be open from midday to 11pm seven days a week and will be partnered with Deliveroo, Just Eat and Uber Eats.
