You will soon be able to tuck into tasty pizza overlooking the River Yare at a pub on the outskirts of the city. 

The Water's Edge in Bramerton will host Big Nap Pizza Co from September 8 and it will be there every Sunday from 5pm to 9pm. 

The new business is run by Leo Payne, 40, who is a childhood friend of the pub's head chef James Stewart.

Pizzas will be served from an outdoor kitchen and the options include the 'Margzzz', his take on a Margherita with a basil reduction, and 'Salami Slap' with Suffolk salami and pickled jalapenos - both with San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella and parmesan.

He said: "My job takes me all over Europe and I have spent a lot of time in Italy where I was inspired by the food.

"I am using the Naples technique, with very fluffy light bases, and elevating it by using amazing Norfolk and Suffolk ingredients."
