Free pizzas will be given away when Kent's first Domino’s dine-in restaurant opens near Maidstone.

The fast food chain has announced its new diner will launch in Loose, on Saturday, September 3.

The firm revealed last year it was converting the former Spar store in Boughton Parade in Loose Road into a restaurant.

Alongside more traditional collection counters and waiting areas, the venue will also feature the 60 seats and tables where people can eat in.

The Spar closed in May 2015 after facing competition from a new Sainsbury’s and work began in May this year to convert the building.

Domino’s announced the first 250 personal-sized pizzas will be handed out in cheese and tomato or pepperoni flavours. The launch will begin at 1pm.

There will also be competitions to win one large pizza every month for a year, your height in pizza, or one of four £25 Domino’s dine-in vouchers.

It will deliver to areas including Loose, Coxheath, Boughton Monchelsea, Tovil and Downswood.

The Loose branch won’t cover the centre of Maidstone or areas near Barming as there are already Domino’s outlets serving these areas.

The company is also looking for trainee, assistant and deputy managers for the new eatery and those interested are asked to email dominos-feedback@outlook.com by August 25.
