The company has put a planning application forward to Powys County Council asking for permission for an outlet at the Buttington Cross Enterprise Park, next to the roundabout of the A483 and Rhalt Lane.

It says the restaurant will bring 30 full time and 35 part-time jobs to the town. It will include a drive-through, that the planning application says will account for about half of the expected trade.
