Papa Johns expands in Northern Ireland with Belfast opening

To mark the launch, the store will sell any large pizza for £10 for a limited time.

Papa Johns will open its second store in Northern Ireland on 21 May at Upper Newtownards Road, Belfast (BT4 3JD).

The branch is part of the company’s longer-term plan to open 20 additional locations across the region over the next 10 years.

The Belfast opening follows its first Northern Ireland store, which launched in Ballymena in December 2025.

To mark the launch, the store will sell any large pizza for £10 for a limited time, available for both collection and delivery.

Papa Johns operates more than 450 outlets across the UK and continues to expand through new store openings and product updates, including its recent sourdough-based menu items.

The Northern Ireland rollout is being overseen by franchise operator Rana Abhol of the Rana Group, who has worked in the pizza sector for over 25 years.

Abhol joined the brand in 2017 and currently runs more than 25 locations across the UK.
