Pesto first opened its doors on Manchester’s Deansgate in 2006, bringing the concept of Italian piattini to the city for the first time.

Following the success of the inaugural Deansgate restaurant, three further sites opened on Liverpool One’s Paradise Street, the Trafford Centre’s Great Hall and the largest Pesto to date on Glasgow’s lively St Vincent Street.

November 2011 saw Pesto’s Italian piattini concept brought into a traditional pub environment with the opening of Pesto at the Cabbage Hall and most recently Pesto in a Pub Farnworth, Widnes, Pesto Prune Park, Wilsden, Pesto at the Dibbinsdale Inn and Pesto at the Waggon and Horses in Sheffield!
