The opening of Milano’s Mediterranean restaurant takes the total number of hospitality staff at Mill Farm to 45.

It features indoor seating for 80, along with a further 40 outdoors under cover and a Giotto Cuppone pizza oven costing more then £12,000, which offers diners the chance to enjoy a revolving stone-based pizza cooked before their eyes.

The eaterie joins Bradley’s Bar, which opened in June, as a seven-day-a-week attraction at the Fleetwood Road site, which is centred around AFC Fylde’s new stadium.

The £18m development also includes indoor and outdoor sports facilities and an Aldi supermarket.

Milano’s manager Matthew Nicholson, formerly of Gilpin Lodge in the Lake District, said: “Milano’s is incredibly versatile, catering for everything from a light bite with friends or work colleagues, to a three-course dining experience. We feel the quality of the interior design is reminiscent of some of the best restaurants in London or Manchester.”
