The company began in Essex, but is now expanding across the country, with plans to build on the 26 stores already open.

It also delivers gourmet burgers and a selection of desserts, Ripu advises the store's milkshakes are gorgeous too.

Fat Pizza has the following mission statement on its website: "We do things differently at The Fat Pizza.

"After literally decades within the industry we thought that there would surely be a better way of delivering pizza. It seems that every pizza chain has different deals at different times all to "trick" customers in to thinking they get value for money when they do not.

"We do not have deals, just Great Prices for Great Fresh Pizza!

"We decided that we would focus on making less profit from each of our orders... stupid you're thinking... you'll go out of business in months. To be honest, we were a little scared too... Our business plan works if we basically get our customers to order more times than they would otherwise... So how do we manage that??"

"Simple.. we do not charge you extortionate prices in the hope that you will use us more often!"

The store in Milton Keynes is located in Monkstown Park, there is no dine-in option.
