Pizza Hut announces major refurbishment for Milton Keynes restaurant

Pizza Hut Restaurants unveiled a £346,960 restaurant makeover at its Milton Keynes Hut.

The re-opening is part of a multi-million pound nationwide redesign programme by the casual dining company. A brand new menu will also be rolled out in the revamped Hut that includes the new Ultimate Thin pizza – featuring Pizza Hut’s thinnest ever crust – Kentucky style BBQ ribs, frickles (fried pickles) and American style waffles.

All of Pizza Hut Restaurants’ icons – including the Ice Cream Factory, Salad Station and Buffet – still take centre stage, but form part of the new, interactive design that includes a central preparation station offering a range of desserts including warm cookie dough, and a self-service soft drinks hub allowing guests to refill drinks at their leisure.

A contemporary new cocktail bar has been introduced offering guests a unique Hut experience. This great addition will transform the restaurant into a fun evening destination appealing to a wider customer base across Milton Keynes.

Restaurant Manager Carl Payne said: "We are really excited to show off our new makeover. Visually it’s unreal – the restaurant looks really modern and cool with new wall art and quirky seating booths. The bar is the best feature though it’s really prominent and the bright lights give it the wow factor."

“Guests can look forward to a new menu too. There’s something for everyone from pizzas to chicken dishes, BBQ ribs, and even fried pickles! We can’t wait to hear what they think!”

The investment in Milton Keynes is part of a broader £60 million refurbishment and restructuring programme for the business, secured through private equity investment from Rutland Partners in late 2012.

Pizza Hut Restaurants’ newly redesigned Hut can be found at: Units C & F, 2/16 Midsummer Arcade, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, MK9 3BB.
