Great food although the allergy book was a little confusing for this coeliac. They did have gluten free options and the pizza was very tasty. I was part of a large party and the others enjoyed several cocktails on the 90 minute limit. The service was good and everyone was friendly.
Lovely pizza restaurant. Plenty of gluten and dairy free options. Knowledgeable staff. Could of done with more staff on when we went as it took a while to get attention once our pizzas were finished and we wanted pudding. Lovely vibe to the place.
Well it is pizza express, just one of those chains going through the daily monotomy of making pizza.
The best part ... the food was paid for by Tesco Clubcard Vouchers on a 2:1 basis. So just £23 pounds spent on two pizzas and a sharing platter.
As can be seen from the sharing platter, a lot of food for three people. Everything stored and reproduced for the masses at minimal cost. Definitely no love here. There was enough cheese to redistribute to the local community. The bread was crispy to the extent I did not know whether to use a gum sheild to stop my gums from being lacerated or take it to the local radio station for acoustic effects, for breaking glass.
Now the gluten free base .... recipe not right cooking very poor. See photo. Very very thin, brown and hard and dry and hard and just rock hard. The centre was cooked for the first nanometre and raw dough on top. Take a look at the Classia Pollo Italiano, just raw dough above a wafer thin cooked layer. With the ingredients on top looking like the night before's take away.
Come on Pizza Express you are better than this. Put some love back in your food.
Customer services asked us for more details, which I supplied. Thank you, we look forward to redeeming our vouchers and our next visit 🤞.
We had a wonderful lunch and were so well taken care of by Shabba. My son has Coeliac disease and nothing was too much trouble with regards to making sure he was able to eat safely. Thanks Shabba! We’ll definitely be back!

Got a takeout from there it was a bit of a nightmare to order over the phone so ended up hanging up and getting my wife to order online. Which cost me about 6 pounds cheaper than what the lad was charging me over the phone. But they do gluten free food so my daughter enjoyed it and will go back .
