Advantages: Tasty, Reliable, Reasonably Priced Disadvantages: It's A Chain! No Salt & Pepper!
PIZZA EXPRESS: Last night, presumably along with thousands of other people across the United Kingdom, I had a meal at my local Pizza Express. Ask any of us about our meal last night, and most of us would probably respond in much the same way. How was dinner last night? Well, actually it was pretty good. It was really nice. A very pleasant evening. I think you get the drift; Pizza Express is fine. It's a perfectly serviceable chain of perfectly reliable ... ...to descend in large groups, Pizza Express is on a mission for global domination. Don't take my word for it, though. Have a look at their website. This is one seriously successful chain, bigger than you probably imagine and getting even bigger.
HISTORY: Peter Boizot, who honed his pizza-making expertise in the trattorias of Florence, founded Pizza Express in the 1960's. He took pity on Londoners, or so the fairytale runs, because they were unable ...

Advantages: Great food Disadvantages: Might eat too much!
...I went to the Pizza Express in Weybridge on Saturday and was rather impressed with the service generally, so I thought, since I have not written for a while, that I would tell you about these restaurants. Lovely!
LOCATION
The company have branches dotted up and down the country – they are very easy to find – you will come across a restaurant in the high street of most towns and in the main streets of large cities. They’re everywhere.
... ...As you approach your Pizza Express, try not to do so by car, because of the prime location of the stores, car parking is not really that easy around them so if you live nearby it might be a good idea to take a walk.
You go through the heavy door and you stand, most likely in a glass encasement to stop a draft from getting in to the restaurant and therefore cooling down everybody else’s meals. But just sit tight for a few moments!

Advantages: Unusual twist with Italian basics! Disadvantages: Busy at most popular times
Pizza Express provide good and tasty food at a reasonable price in a pleasant atmosphere with classy surroundings. They provide an exciting change to garlic bread in the shape of their garlic dough balls, which must be tried to be believed. Their baked American cheese cake (with a strawberry garnish) is to die for.
The portions are adequate and not overfacing, although you are only allowed one trip to the salad bar. The staff are very nice, although ...

Advantages: Good Service, Great Food, Disadvantages: If you're on a budget
Pizza Express Manchester sets the standard for restaurants of this nature with very polite and proffessional waiteresses and a fabulous interior. This restaurant seats many with a ground, first and second floor, and bosts the ambience of an authentic italian resturant.
The Pizzas are absolutely amazing and mouth watering, once you have eaten a pizza here you will not ever eat one anywhere else. The dough is light, yeasty and mouth watering followed ... ...you've ever eaten a fantastic pizza and you yearn for that flavour again then pay Pizza Express a visit.
The prices reflect the quality and speed of service and you would be ill mannered not to give a small tip to your waiteress, who will have done her best to make you happy. It really does amaze me how much effor the people put in to make sure that you enjoy your meal.
Tables are set apart well to prevent klaustrophobia but the space is utilised ...

Advantages: Slightly classier type of snack meal Disadvantages: Expense
Pizza Express is the place to go for a good, quick american-italian experience. The food is good, although slightly more expensive than it's popular high street rivals, but the atmosphere and decor of the restaurants makes it a preferable alternative when looking for a snack meal rather than an entire evening. The staff are friendly and the facilities clean and well maintained. On a plus point, their dreamy salad dressing can be purchased to take ...

Advantages: Great mains! Disadvantages: But you need to work on the salads!
I visited the pizza express in my home town with a friend for lunch for last week. I thought I would give it a go as I had not been for a number of years. We were quickly seated in the window and although it was the busy lunchtime session, it did not feel overly crowded, although the ambient noise level was high and we had to lean in close to carry on our conversation. We ordered drinks (two diet cokes) which were quite expensive and served in glass ... ...chicken and I ordered a pizza with a side salad, a vegetarian special pizza which I was very much looking forward to scoffing down! We waited approximately twenty minutes to be served our lunch. It arrived and it all looked very good, the dishes were hot and the ingredients on our main plates looked fresh and tasty. My friend commented that her pasta was delicious. There were lots of pieces of chicken breast in the dish and it had a good strong smell ...

Advantages: There are no advantages going here, plenty nicer restuarants in Fleet Disadvantages: Will not go back there again.
...very bad meal at the Pizza Express in Fleet. We order coffee which arrived luke warm, then we ordered the pizzas. As we had an 8 year old with us, we had to ask for the kids menu, it was not automatically given to us.
The pizzas arrived cold and uncooked, smeared in tomato paste, 3 blobs of melted cheese and chopped mushrooms. This was the funghi pizza I ordered. Uninteresting and tasteless. No condiments like crushed garlic/chilli/parmesan cheese ... ...When I complained the waiter went to inform the manager, the manager didnt even get off his chair to come and speak to us.This is the Pizza Express in Fleet. Expensive and poor quality of food. Will not go back there. We went there to celebrate my grandson's 8th birthday. ...

Advantages: great value and great quality food Disadvantages: can get very busy at peak times.
In my opinion Pizza Express is a great place to eat. The environment is warming, welcoming and friendly and the food is of hig quality too.
The cost of a main meal is around £8 give or take a few pennies. However there are always deals and offers floating around such as this 2 for 1 ofer here. http://www.pizzaexpressoffers.co.uk/ Though some may say the menu is limited, i beieve that they cater for everyone.. in all honesty how many different pizza ... ...restaurants.
All in All Pizza Express is one of my faviourite places to eat and i have never had a bad experience there. it is fun to watch the pizzas being made (though this relies a lot on where you are seated) and i have never recieved bad service.. all staff have made my eating experience evry enjoyable and i will continue to go there always. ...

Advantages: Good Food Disadvantages: A little expensive
Pizza Express is a chain of restuarants specialising in Pizzas although recntly it has started to offer a wider range of Italian such as pastas and i can definately reccomend the food. The prices are a little on the steep side but you get what you pay for because the food is very good. The staff a generally nice and the chefs are usually quite chummy and will usually show you how the pizzas are made and possibly even let you have a go. The restuaraunts ...

Advantages: food, service, Disadvantages: some of the tables in the middle of the room are abit squashed together
I love pizza express restaurants last time I went there I had the bruschetta which was lovely and a pizza that i can't spell the name of but that was delicious aswell! We were served by a lovely young man who took order and brought the drinks straight away followed by the food and when we asked for the bill that didnt take long either! Great service always excellent food best pizza chain restaurant by far! Average price for a pizza is about 9pounds ... ...time I went to the pizza express the new one in York and think this is much better than the old one by the river as last time we went there they were very busy and it was rather chaotic whereas the one near browns has it alot more under control and are very well organised ...
