Papa Johns opens first buffet in Europe

It has an unlimited choice of fresh pizza, pasta and salad.

Papa Johns has partnered with resort chain Butlins to open its first and only Papa Johns Buffet in Butlins Minehead.

Guests on the recent 90s Reloaded Big Weekender in Minehead tucked into an unlimited choice of fresh pizza, pasta and salad following two days of fun and entertainment with friends at the popular Somerset coastal resort.

In addition to Minehead, Butlin’s will add Papa Johns to the menu at its Skegness Resort next month. The development of the new Papa Johns restaurants will be run by a team of around 20 at both resorts.  Butlin’s welcomes around 1.5 million visitors each year to Bognor Regis, Minehead and Skegness will soon be offering Papa Johns at all three resorts. 

Papa Johns now takes the place of the Italian buffet offering at both Butlin’s Minehead and Skegness. The new buffet features a choice of freshly made Papa Johns pizzas, a selection of pasta including penne pomodoro, mac & cheese carbonara and unlimited fresh salad.

“We are proud to have worked with the Butlin’s team to bring Papa Johns to Minehead and Skegness.  Taking over the existing restaurants, the new Papa Johns features our very latest modern store design highlighting our fresh ingredients with vibrant colours and lighting.  It’s a fresh, fun, welcoming look, which creates the perfect environment for holiday guests to feel right at home when they order and enjoy their favourite pizza together, making their Butlin’s stay even more memorable,” Amit Pancholi, business development director, Papa Johns UK said.

Papa Jonhs has been aggressively expanding its presence in the UK, entering high street locations and other non-traditional locations like resorts. In July, Papa Johns opened Hunters Quay Holiday Village in Dunoon, Scotland as part of a multi-million-pound investment in the holiday park’s facilities.
