Pizza Express in Bolsover

But The pizza was extremely burnt and I threw it away. This is the last time I order. The dough was not cooked well the other day. Now it is extremely burnt. It is a disgrace.

Incredibly rude staff. We turned up 15 minutes early and were practically shouted at. We were so shocked we decided to cancel our booking.

I had been served by a waiter named Max and he was truly a delight. His manners, attitude and work ethic was brilliant. I would request him for my next meal here. He was absolutely brilliant. Keep up the good work, Max. Thank you, Max!!

Kirsty was excellent with our loud table of 6 (including a toddler!) she was smiley, chatty, friendly and very quick! Thank you for ensuring a pleasureable lunch!

Delicious pizzas...a bit of a wait but then i suppose you could say everything is cooked to order...pricey but delicious

The service was really bad had to wait quite a long to be seated even tho there was quite a few seats available. Even after seating the waiters took a while to come and take the order. Also, the mac and cheese was over cooked and wasn’t good and we reported it and the staff didn’t seem to care much about it. Even after the food was done no one was coming to bring the bill and I had to explicitly get their attention multiple times. Overall I thought the food and service was poor

Excellent Christmas pizza. Kirsty our waitress was very attentive and helped us use the app.

Absolutely superb experience at this restaurant with our server Danielle who looked after us from start to finish and took real care in making sure we had all we needed. The food was delicious and well cooked when it arrived and we all thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We will definitely be back. Big Thankyou to Danielle for her excellent customer service and attention to detail. Our daughter really enjoyed her birthday lunch 😊

Our waitress Kirsty was amazing. The food was delicious as always. The puddings were epic!! A lovely evening.

Me and my partner came with our little boy for an early evening meal. Fantastic from start to finish, the restaurant was quite busy but our drink order was taken and brought over quickly. Again for food. The staff were amazing with our little boy who was interacting with his animals with them, even though they were busy our lovely server and other staff passing stopped to talk to him and name his animals with him- which was above and beyond in our experience. All our food was incredible and our son who can be a picky eater ate nearly all his pasta and meant me and my partner could finish our meal whilst still hot! 10/10 experience for us and we will be back soon! Wish I would have got our servers name because he was a credit to pizza express!! Tall, brown haired guy with a blue shirt if he sees this- Thankyou! He also took our child’s meal off the bill as there was a kids eat free deal on (that we were unaware of) which was a nice bonus! We usually go to the giltbrook pizza express and first time trying this one but Will definitely return to this pizza express! As we always say “it’s like being on holiday in here” and it certainly was!

I love coming to this restaurant I’m normally served by Kirsty or Danielle. Food is amazing and the service is great. Nothing is to much trouble when you ask for help from anyone. I’ll be back again soon

Popped in for lunch. It was half term and the whole site was busy. Even at 12pm the restaurant was struggling to find tables. They accommodated us after a short wait. Ordered drinks which came out swiftly and once the order was taken dough balls soon followed. Mains came out quickly and were hot and delicious. Not mine but I had a salad so that’s great! Tuna nicoise was packed with ingredients and very filling. Puddings also delicious and a great treat. Louis was a great host, very charming and funny. Friendly staff all round and a great welcome

Was very pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed my Pizza Express experience. Warm and friendly welcome, efficient service, the food was divine.. and the wonderful aroma of garlic in the air !

Very disappointed with the quality of food. Both pizzas were burnt and really not up to scratch. It’s a pitty as I am a big pizza express fan but after today’s experience I will not be returning. P.S. The staff were really nice and friendly.

Kirsty, our server was exceptional, so polite, bubbly and friendly. She is a credit to your organisation.

Perfect. Food excellent quality. Speedy service. Great staff. Very clean.

These went over and above took time to look at all the ingredients so my alligies were considered. Good job.

Amazing food, and brilliant and welcoming staff. We had Danielle and she was amazing. Will definitely come again.

the pizza was stone cold. had to put in microwave which made it soggy and lost the crispyness it was supposed to have

Kirsty’s service was fantastic! She was very friendly and helpful and the food was great 😊

Waited half an hour just to order drinks and still had to ask to be severed twice 😡 took ages for food to arrive got a tiny can of 150ml lemonade for £2 and regular can of Fanta 330ml for £3.55 Food was oily in lasagna at the top was puddles of oil and the crispy potatoes was uncooked chips. Overall not a great experience

Me and my Partner just had our lunch here and enjoyed our food and Kirsty’s excellent service, who took care of us while we were there. We also tried the garlic butter dip for our pizza and absolutely fell inlove with it. Definitely will be back again. ♥️

Really enjoyed the food, staff are excellent too. Thank you. Only one observation, not complaint as such as the pollo pasta I had was amazing, but there was no chicken to see, not one piece. Maybe it’s the recipe 🤷🏼‍♀️.

Really pleasant meal. Staff were attentive and polite, food was excellent. Zero complaints

Our waitress kirsty was lovely and very helpful, great service and food

Great from start to finish fresh pizza good seats nice big shop no rush last minute good timing for ordering food

First time at Pizza Express, very tasty pizza, I had sloppy giueseppe which was excellent . Indie was awesome as was Gem who made the pizza. Highly recommend. Place is very clean and we were well looked after all evening.

Today we decided to call into Pizza Express at the shopping outlet DE55. What a breath of fresh air was our waiter Louis. He welcomed us , promptly took our drinks order, and allowed enough time for us to make our selection of food, from the extensive menu. He was very helpful and made us very comfortable. Noticing we were trying to take a photo, he offered his help.Louie politely checked if all was good with our food selection, and he noted when we had finished the very tasty salads and pizza and cleared away efficiently. It was such a lovely lunch experience and Louie's showed dedication and enthusiasm of how to offer excellent customer service. This did not go unnoticed by two very greatful senior ladies.

There was no mushrooms and my pizza was burnt

The crispy potatos didn't have cheese on them

Freezing cold food. Watched he the delivery driver do multiple drops on the app. Called the restaurant number 10 plus times and nobody even answered. Cost £20 to get it delivered. Fuming, never again will we order from this app or the place.

A perfect pizza and fast delivery! Brilliant

It’s difficult to post into words the absolute disappointment you provided in a box when you delivered my pizza. I am trying to comprehend how it could have arrived looking as it did, was it fired out of a blunderbuss into the box? Besides the absolute horror show of a pizza you provided, it was cold, chewy and you hadn’t even bothered to slice it properly. I imagine someone in the kitchen worked hard to prepare, cook and check this, having endured dozens of hours of training for some genius delivery driver to presumably shove this sideways somewhere on the way to me. This also cost about five times the price of the alternative you sell in supermarkets, not worth it all. Avoid at all costs.

Pizzas were delivered folded and rolled into corner of the box. Lifting them from the box left most of the topping stuck to the box.

We pre- booked a table for 4 of us, and we were seated fairly quickly with a pleasant welcoming. The young waiter kept asking if we were ready to order, but we didn't mind, but we didn't understand why because it wasn't busy late in the evening. I guess that they might want to finish promptly. However, it was a nice meal without anything to complain about, and we were looked after with a smile 😃 definitely recommend this venue, so check it out, and I'll look out for new reviews, just to see weather you agree with me.

Had prawn pizza bland only 5 prawns and 3 small green tomatos.

I ordered a starter, a pizza and a dessert. They did not have the dessert I chose and delivered a different one.

pizza was cold, delivered over a wall because the delivery driver didn't know where they were. very disappointed.

We dined here on a Friday late afternoon and we’re greeted so politely and welcoming by the manager Lucy! Our server Molly was amazing too, very helpful and really on point! A fantastic service, great food and amazing staff! Thank you for a fantastic experience xxx

Save your money and go to an independent talian restaurant.Food very average but expensive,service poor with absolutely no attention to detail.Can't see this chain being around for much longer.

It was a very good experience here. Though it was very busy and it took about 15-20 min to order food but it was worth it. Service was really good and even in a very busy environment, the waitress was very calm and helpful. Didn't feel like she was rushing to serve another table.

Visited as a convenient meet up location with family. The Manager on duty and ALL staff were exceptional, polite, efficient and nothing too much trouble. We had elderly relatives with us who loved the food, quality of service and their first visit! Really couldn't fault the whole thing.

well, it looked like the pizza box had been dropped on its edge as the topping was in a heap at one end of the box and not on the pizza. first time I've ordered, and also the last. Truckers deliver your ingredients to make these things. Is it too much to ask to have the finished goods delivered in good condition to us?

Great service. Sat outside. Welcomed and treated well. Enjoyed all the orders which were shared as we just wanted a very light bite in this heat.

Cheerful and friendly staff, excellent pizza and a lively atmosphere.

Nice place to eat. Friendly staff.

Mid week early evening visit so quiet, staff are polite and efficient. Perhaps need to 'wash' not just wipe the tables once in a while.

Food was freezing cold!! Horrendous

We went for some lunch as the food court was closed, the restaurant was busy but we were seated within 5 minutes. Our order was taken shortly after, there was two staff members waiting, two chefs with one manager. They were trying their best but were clearly understaffed, i felt sorry for them because it was like they are working for 10 people. Our order took quite long to make, the pizza tasted nice but the prawn pasta was a disappointment, it was cold and tasted stale. Pizza express if you are going to serve frozen pasta baked in the oven please take it off the menu, we can get the same from iceland for £1. The manager on site named James was kind enough to take the pasta off the bill as we could not eat it. Thank you James for excellent customer service. I feel that its not the staff’s fault that this place has so many bad reviews, the management above needs to hire more people during busy periods at least.

We decided to try something new. It looked like a pizza folded in half not as nice looking but no the less still delicious 😋 we had the garlic dough balls they were spot on too

I visited today as an ex employee for an amazing company! i had beth as my server and all i can say is that she delivered the best customer service that i have never encountered! She is pure amazing and lovely, and i’m so glad she was our server as i had an amazing time here! Beth is just so warm hearted and so nice! Thankyou for a lovely time!

Danielle was amazing she is such an attentive waitress. She went above and beyond for us and other guests around us.

everything was ok, the atmosphere, the food, but the forks and knives were dirty, the staff was not attentive to the order and brought me minus one menu and we had to wait for the last menu. otherwise everything is ok. more attention to the cleanliness of the cutlery and the others which are not disposable

Friendlt staff. Quickly resolves any issues.

Only a small selection of food available as they ran out of ingredients. Sunday and farthers day, running out on such a day was bad management. Will not be going back.

Brilliant service and food from Beth thanks

Very fast and efficient service with a wide and varied menu.

Very nice pizza express, family friendly and staff lovely - Danielle was super friendly! 😊

Pizza was alright. Very dark inside in the restaurant it was not well lit

Great meal and excellent service from Danielle who made a real fuss of our 2.5 year old boy. Thank you!

Angel was amazing and really welcoming!

We visited yesterday and having a couple of different dietary requirements (one gluten free and one vegan), were a bit worried. We really shouldn't have been. From the delightful young man that seated us, to the lovely girl that served us. A great experience with five star food. Thank you so much,we will definitely be back!

We visited late Saturday evening so not exactly buzzing with people. Food was great and catered well for the cloeiac and vegan I was dining with. I tried the dough balls from both GF and vegan and they didn't taste any different and as a muggle I'd be more than happy to eat them. Certainly worth a visit. I had the spicy calzone which was amazing, GF smokey BBQ pizza which also went down very well and the vegan Margherita didn't disappoint. If you are at the Outlet it's certainly a better experience than the other options, bar the waggas.

Amazing staff, clean restaurant, tasty food. Fast efficient service. Altogether a lovely experience.

About the service excellent 👍 Staff very excellent indeed Absolutely amazing food Friendly for babies and toddlers Going again when visit the area 💙

Tonight we had max as our server. He was so so lovely and really made our night, looked after us so well. Thank you so much #maxslays

There is a really good vibe here, which is created by the young team. Unfortunately, the caps the chefs were wearing weren't covering the entirety of their hair. There were three hairs on my plate. Once I saw them, I couldn't eat my pizza and it put my friend off their pizza too. The server was very pleasant about it and I did not have to pay for my pizza.

Nice food, a little bit pricey for what it is, the good thing is that the kids get some crayons and an activity book to keep them entertained

The pizza was cold. I tracked the order and the driver seemed to be held up at the restaurant. He was polite and apologetic.

Food was brilliant, although my order notes were not listened too at all !

A great space, out table felt like we were in a corridor with everyone bundling past. We were told that it was one of the few tables left, however there were other tables that were empty for the whole time we were eating!

Really excellent for a family trip with two under two after shopping

Wonderful food and quick service. Max was absolutely lovely and checked the food was okay, was patient while we ordered our food. Great atmosphere, not too loud and good music.

Having called in to eat we were surprised to be told that there was no tables available even though there were lots of empty ones. We dutifully agreed to call back in 30 mins and booked a table. When we returned the place had cleared considerably and we were shown to a table. We asked for the table number so that we could update the app of our visit but the duty manager didn’t know as it wasn’t her store. She was obviously filling in for an absent manager. We waited for 25 minutes for someone to at least take a drink order but no one came. There were a stream of diners arrive and seated and all got their orders taken before us. The site was woefully understaffed both on the floor and in the kitchen. My wife noticed that the manager even started to help the cooks as he was under too much pressure. Eventually we gave and left…hungry and disappointed. There is no wonder that business’ fail due to miss-management and understaffing.

Really enjoyed our lunch we had here. The staff were extremely friendly and it was a great environment for kids. The kids and adults menu was great and the food was delicious. Not been to one for years but really enjoyed it and will go back!

Very nice pizzas. We ordered the dough balls with cheese, beetroot salad, bread with mozzarella and duo pizza. The dough balls and mozzarella bread are ok. The beetroot salad was really good. Three pizza flavours are amazing.

Poor experience, kitchen got my order wrong twice but instead of being courteous about it I could overhear one of the Cooks (I believe his name was Kyle) arguing with the waiting on staff about it and then proceeded to glare at me from the kitchen. My order was incorrect, it wasn't personal in any way however, the pizza I received to begin with was lukewarm at best and dry, when your paying over £10 a pizza you expect it to be hot at the very least. To be fair to the waiting on staff and manager, they were great and their customer service was excellent and they did try to make it right but by that point I was fed up. If you're going to have an open kitchen at least have the kitchen staff concentrate on the task at hand and instead not try to intimidate or belittle customers (which I then overheard later on). As someone who visits regularly with family and are all Gold Members, we will all be giving it a wide berth for the interim.

the pizza is as thin as paper and the pizza was so cold I couldn't even eat it gone straight in the bin

Was served by a lovely lady called beth,exceptional service 10/10 I hope you get some recognition for this great young lady

First of all, the place is dirty. The waiters make a mistake with the order I ordered a margarita pizza that was missing cheese 😅

Food was as expected for the usual Pizza Express however it took 3 hours to get a meal and dessert in what was a relatively empty restaurant and that's with us prompting staff to engage with us. Wouldn't bother with this particular store again.

Took 5 minutes to seat us and waited a further 10 minutes without a single person coming anywhere near us. What made it worse was people who came in after us were seated and ordering before a single word was said. Needless to say we left hungry and annoyed. Awful service.

A rare experience but would certainly eat there again.. Staff were jolly and friendly. Food was most enjoyable and in a nice relaxing atmosphere.

If you intend on spending three and a half hours to eat a pizza and a dessert, this place is for you. For everyone else however, it is not. This place has the least engaged and slowest staff I have experienced in a long time! At the time of writing, I've finished eating and have been waiting an hour for someone to ask to pay for the food. They have had a full staff change over whilst we have been here, if we had got up and walked out without paying I don't believe anyone would have noticed

stone cold on arrival. To eat in the restaurant is amazing, but to order out has been disappointing

Lovely place. Well presented, clean (very nice toilets). Food was of a good standard and friendly staff. Nothing too much trouble.

pizza cold for second time and again not cut up into slices, shame because flavor is nice. maybe stick to collection as I'm 8 min down the road

hi I was unable to get seated as the lady refused to serve me , and said I should wait as she was busy chatting to a customer who was seated and eating her food . She was extremely rude towards me and I can only assume it was because I was of Indian nationality . The restaurant was quiet with only 2 customers . No greetings at all when i entered the premises . I said hello , to which the response was , I am busy . I would normally expect a welcoming and warm greeting from a waitress , but this was cold and unwelcoming .

Came to Pizza Express for a bite to eat after some time hitting the shops. We must say, Lucy is the most caring and down to earth waitress we have ever been greeted by. She elevated the experience by being so bubbly and chatty which was great to see. The service provided right from walking through the front door was impeccable and Lucy is an absolute credit to the company. The food was very nice, explained well and presented equally as good. We had such a great time and will definitely be back and really hope Lucy is serving and greeting us on our next visit 😁

Always good at pizza express, but this one seems top - Danielle was fantastic and made the visit a dream! Thanks all!!

First time going out to eat right after New year. The welcome was warm and friendly, we didn't have to wait. Our server Amber was incredibly friendly and kind. We had a few issues with our drinks as low in stock after New Year. Amber went above and beyond to meet our needs. The food itself es was really tasty there were so many vegan options. Definitely would go again not just for the food but also the good service.

Dined in your restaurant the other day, had great service and delicious food! Was promptly seated by the female manager, believe her name was Lucy. She went over the menu with us and offered to get us drinks to start us off and some great recommendations! Overall a really lovely and inviting experience:)

Fab place, had such a lovely meal! Food was really good and service was amazing. We had a lovely manager named Lucy serve us! Made sure we had everything we needed and made our visit super pleasant. Will definitely be returning

Popped in after some Christmas shopping. Greeting set the tone straight away, happy, and helpful. Food was really quick and amazing. Would recommend to anyone 😋

Lovely afternoon with a nice pizza and friends

Pizza express is a generic pizza chain restaurant. The food was as I expected, but I do think everything is slightly over priced. I don't have any specific complaints or praises really.

Food was stone cold and completely different to previous orders

Ordered 5 times and pizza is always cold.

Great pizzas and sides served with a smile. The staff are really helpful and service was good. The Christmas Wreath pizzas were a little bit different. Nice!

They was waiting for a driver to pick up the order. The driver made the take out place reorder the pizzas as they was cold.
