Larry's Pizzeria opens in Hoveton on the Norfolk Broads

Mary and Jamie Thompson have launched Larry's Pizzeria in Hoveton where customers will be able to have “pizza their own way”. 

The pair set up their former catering business in 2015 after they found a pizza oven at a caravan show and began experimenting with handmade doughs and toppings.

Larry's, named after the couple’s cockapoo, was then born when they took over an empty premises in Norwich Road.  

“We’ve been bursting to tell people for months,” Mrs Thompson said.
