Takeaway to reopen as late bar

A doomed Italian takeaway in Wolverhampton city centre will re-open as a restaurant and late night bar within three weeks, it has been revealed.

Soprano's in Princess Street closed in May, just months after it reopened following a three-year refurbishment. It will be relaunched under new management next month, with a restaurant serving Italian/American food, upstairs lounge.

Drinks could be served until 4.30am some nights.

Business partners John McGhee and Jim Parker are behind the new venture. The pair already run McGee's Irish Pub and McGhee's sandwich bar in the city.
