A POPULAR restaurant chain which serves "fresh flame-grilled chicken" is set to open in Rosyth.

Pepe's Piri Piri will open the doors at their new store on Queensferry Road next week.

The company has more than 70 franchises which sell a variety of grilled Piri Piri chicken products ranging in different levels of spice.

A spokesperson for Pepe's told the Press that the new Rosyth takeaway will be ready for customers on Monday, October 1 and are continuing to advertise for jobs online.

They said: "Pepe’s Piri Piri is Rosyth’s newest fast food restaurant with a spicy edge, where building relationships with our customers and having a ‘people first’ approach is our secret ingredient – it’s not just the Piri Piri!"

Pepe's opened their first restaurant in London in 2004, and own two Scottish stores in Falkirk and Glasgow, as well as businesses in Northern Ireland and in the USA.
