Two Cockermouth businesses are joining forces to cook up a new spin on Friday nights out on the town.
From this Friday, film fans at the Kirkgate Centre cinema will be able to order in pizzas from nearby Fermento on Market Place, to enjoy before the film in the Kirkgate’s newly spruced up ground floor bar.
From 6–7pm, Kirkgate volunteers will act as runners every ten minutes delivering orders of piping hot, fresh from the oven pizzas to customers.
Friday night films start at 7pm, with the bar opening an hour earlier.
