The Pan-Asian sensation is launching in the town this week with some amazing opening deals for Guildfordians.

Chopstix, the UK’s favourite noodle bar, has announced it’s heading to Guildford as it opens its newest store.

The store, which will be opening its doors on 22nd May, has taken a spot in the Friary Shopping Centre on North Street.

To sweeten the deal, Chopstix is also bringing with it more than 1000 free meals to Guildfordians who get in early.

There will be free medium boxes on offer for the first 100 people through the door, with 1000 free portions of spring rolls available for those that miss out on the box deals.

The new venue, which joins the food court in the shopping centre, will be open between 11am and 6pm Monday to Wednesday, as well as Friday & Saturday. Thursday’s will see opening hours extended from 11am until 8pm, and the store will be open from 11am until 5pm on Sundays.

With the new store being Chopstix’s first foray into Guildford, the popular chain is set to bring a fresh option for food lovers in the city centre.

The chain has quickly become one of the UK’s most popular quick service restaurants, with its focus on Asian flavour in a quick and accessible way making it a firm favourite throughout the country.

As well as take away classics like Sweet & Sour Chicken and Salt ‘N’ Pepper Chicken, Chopstix has a range of fresh flavours including the all new Apple Pie Spring Rolls dusted in Cinnamon Sugar, and brand favourites like the restaurant's signature Caramel Drizzle Chicken.

Fans will be able to order for delivery or takeaway from the new store.

Rob Burns, Marketing Director for Chopstix, said: “We have a legion of Chopstix fans across the country, and we’re incredibly excited to bring our fantastic Pan-Asian flavours to Guildford.

“Whenever we open a new store, we’re always mobbed by people that want to break free from the same old fast food offerings. They want something fresh, new and that has great tastes and flavours without breaking the bank, and it's no surprise that the stores are packed with people from the minute we open our doors.

“The new store brings with it 20 new jobs to Guildford, and adds a bit of diversity to the food options available in the centre. It’s a really exciting time for us, and we can’t wait to see all of our great Chopstix fans when we open the doors.”

Guildford’s new Chopstix store is just the latest in the expansion plans of the group, following new openings in Basingstoke and London’s O2 in the past few months. Now numbering over 110 locations across the UK, Chopstix has stores in almost every major city and town in the country.

The noodle bar’s popular dishes are also available to order from UberEats, Deliveroo, Just Eat, or through the Chopstix app.
