A popular pizza takeaway shop in Glasgow's West End will soon relaunch as a sit-down restaurant.

Pizza Magic on Hyndland Road has been open for over 30 years and in that time has become a well-loved part of the community.   

Plans to extend their current takeaway unit into a neighbouring shop will create a 120 seat restaurant with an outdoor terrace called Nostrana.

Owner Marco Stevenson originally applied for permission for the new venue in May 2017.

At the time he told West End Today: "I really care about Hyndland and this area - it is a special place to me and I want to give something back.

"I think the restaurant would be a real asset to people living here, sitting where it does.

"It could be enjoyed by people using the park with children - and with dogs.

"I really want it to be a place where people come to chat and meet and enjoy the area."

After closing their takeaway shop last month, it seems fans of their signature handcrafted pizza won't have long to wait for another slice.

Their website: "Pizza Magic closed on Sunday 27 February - thanks to all our great customers for a wonderful adventure.

"We are now looking forward to launching our exciting new venture as Nostrana in the coming months."
