Pizza Pilgrims and Beefy Boys are bucking all the trends. As hospitality struggles to recover post-covid, post-recession, post-Brexit, post-everything else, these two former food-truck traders are opening new restaurants like it’s going out of fashion. The Beefy Boys have doubled their space in Hereford and are creating an elegant restaurant group in the Heart of England with openings in Cheltenham, Shrewsbury, Bath and Oxford, while the Pizza Pilgrims had 25 Pizzerias at the last count, including one in Cardiff. What’s their secret? Tim Hayward – author, broadcaster and owner of the Fitzbillies cafes in Cambridge – gives them a good grilling.
Both will be signing copies of their new books Pizza Napoli: Pizza Pilgrims Recipes and Stories from the Birthplace of Pizza and The Beefy Boys:From Backyard BBQ to World-Class Burgers.
