Pizza Express in Manchester

Good food, with good, friendly and efficient service. No complaints.

Servers really friendly, lovely atmosphere and not too busy. Sat by the window, ordered sharing dough balls, budda bowl with goats cheese and chicken and American pizza, all delicious. Recommend this branch.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, very friendly and helpful staff. Food hot and's delicious and arrived in perfect time.

Lovely visit, food was great and pizza 5 out of 5!! Izzy our waitress was very friendly and helpful, thank you ☺️

Came just after the pre theatre rush on a Saturday evening and had good food and great service. Thank you, Willow! 🤗

Great service, lovely atmosphere. Would recommend! Lee was great :)

Lovely food and great for gluten free

Absolutely wonderful warm service, super welcoming and really knowledgeable staff who made our visit an absolute delight.

The BEST pizza I’ve ever had. And I’m including NY pies and Italy here. The kid that made my Romana Calabrio was on point last night. The base was perfect. Thin, slight crunch, but if char on the edges, right amount of toppings and perfect cook. It held together, cut well and the taste was superb. I’m telling you people! This is a hidden gem of pizza. Forget travelling to Brooklyn for a pie, it’s on your doorstep. Two cocktails for a tenner. Healthy glut of rum in each and a great sorbet. Lime and basil was interesting! But great. The guy and girl that looked after me last night. Thank you both. All in all recommended.

We had a fab time and we were well looked after by Amelia throughout our visit. Thank you for a lovely experience and the food, as always, was great.

Esther was absolutely lovely and made our meal wonderful. Food was delicious and tasted fresh. Thank you so much!

Food was very good, atmosphere was very nice. Servers were extremely kind but there was a bit of a wait for the food. Our server Eszter was very nice, highly recommend.

Great food and quality. Amelia out server was fabulous, we were a large group which sometimes can be tricky to accommodate all dietary needs but she was able to do this very quickly and efficiently and all food came out correct.

Best pizza by far. Worth the journey to Manchester

Great food. Excellent service by Eszter.

Lovely, great service and the food was delicious x

Amazing service from Katie! Fast and efficient, good food, a really pleasant experience as a whole!

I always have a great meal here, the dough balls are amazing and the pizza is so good. The service is always brilliant and the staff are really friendly. I would highly recommend this Pizza Express

Amazing experience thank you Katie lovely service really helpful loved the recommendations will be back xx

Katie was fabulous and super helpful

We come into this pizza express a few times a year and I am always impressed with the customer service that me and my children get when we come in. We visited on a busy Sunday when the restaurant was short staffed. I just want to shout out the staff that were on duty that night. Rob, Ruben and Pooja. You were absolutely incredible. You worked your socks off, and although still very busy you gave every single customer just above and beyond service. We had a great time and you made our night so thank you very much.

Great service, the Irish guy was was good.

Reuben was a great server! Food was great! Restaurant was really cold and drafty :(

First time here, food and service great. Reuben our server was great. He was attentive and really nice. Everyone was really nice actually. Will be back we we often go the theatre next door. Great 👍

We had Ruben! very kind and very helpful, great service

Ruben was very attentive great service, food was lovely

Food was delicious, Ruben was very helpful rushed off his feet poor lad, needed more staff.

Esther looked after us & the service was really good. Food was usual pizza express standard. Really impressed.

Fab food, even though it was extremely busy our waitress Esther was really attentive and we all enjoyed the experience

Lovely food and excellent service.

Wonderful food with a lovely atmosphere. Really nice serve, Ester, made our night!!

I had a fantastic pre-theatre lunch at Pizza Express. Our waitress, Eszter, was incredibly friendly and provided excellent service. The food was fabulous and arrived quickly, which was exactly what we needed. As someone with gluten and dairy intolerances, I was impressed by how well they catered to my needs, ensuring I still had a delicious and worry-free meal. Highly recommended!

Aster served us and was very pleasant.

Esther was amazing. Big table and served really quickly. All the order was correct.

Excellent service and very quick, we were served by Ester who was very friendly and knowledgeable, would definitely call here again

Esther was an amazing server! Great food and a lovely evening. Thank you!

Our hostess (Esther) was amazing, the food was really good quality and the atmosphere was great.

We arrived at 10pm, accustomed to having a late dinner, but in Manchester all the kitchens were closed. We were able to have dinner in peace and eat dessert. Very delicious pizzas. We recommend!

Ester was fantastic really attentive and efficient.

pizza and service was amazing. Also my pudding so thankyou very much to esther for her amazing service x

Great food and very well looked after by Eszter!!

Popped in last minute on my lunch break and I’m so glad I did. The atmosphere was warm and inviting with lovely background music. I was welcomed with a big smile from Lee, who then continued to offer excellent service throughout. Food came out promptly and was absolutely delicious. Thank you Lee for brightening my work day. Will be back very soon!

Waiter Rob was so lovely and very attentive

Was given a menu and left for 20 minutes whilst the waiters fluttered around the tables offering drinks that already had food. Sad to say we got up and left. Very confused as to who the resturant clientele is aimed at, set up like a restaurant for people that don't have much money for food, but wish to dress up and act like it's a cocktail bar and get pissed. I would say stay away from this place if you want to feel welcomed and actually have the opportunity to order food. I wouldn't have minded but the place was nearly empty.

Robert has been incredibly helpful especially with my friend who is vegan. He has provided everything requested and more! If I could give more that 5* I would! Thank you for making our birthdays memorable.

Rob served us and the food was amazing!

Welcoming, efficient and polite. Served by Rob

Came to pizza express for a birthday treat! Had such lovely service in particularly Rob was amazing! He was super smiley, and gave great recommendations :) thanks for making my birthday so great, will defo be back !!

Had great pizza's last night and the staff were very friendly.

Tasty pizza, good coffee and lovely atmosphere.

Food was amazing, service amazing, great vibes.

Great service. they were very busy but very attentive

Food was lovely, staff were engaging and attentive.

Thoroughly enjoyed our starters and pizza. Service great. Good atmosphere.

Pizza was tasty. Drinks were far too expensive. A non alcoholic beer was £4.65. A glass of wine was £8.95. Needless to say we drank warer

4 Adults & 1 Child booked in for 4.30pm. We ordered our food, Would say a slight disappointed because 2 of our pizzas turn out to be on the cold side and also would say tasteless. Service was not the best as once they serve you your food they never once returned to our table to ask how was the food or even asked did we want more drink. Atmosphere was good only because there was 5 of us on our table and not meaning Pizza Express. Glad we paid on the app because we would still be waiting to pay. So all in all would say Disappointed.

The main challenge with Pizza express is their menue change very often from visit to visit. This branch is so far better than the others but again they keep changing the menue and sometimes good quality items get dropped. I think they need a more static menue.

Our order got completely mixed up because they can’t hear over the music and the number of customers. As we were going to the theatre, we decided not to change it but both the waitress and manager were more on the defensive side trying to find excuses rather than taking responsibility. Won’t be coming back to this one. Also, We were told that we had to order specific starter for the children’s menu When at three other pizza expresses we have never had to do that. Absolute shame

Missing items, food delivered cold Poor standard of food !

I ordered at 17:32, it’s 20:07 and my order is still not here. It says it’s been delivered. No call from the restaurant to apologise for delay. Absolutely shocking level of customer service from a well established chain.

Good experience, fast and efficient service. Busy during the time we visited, so recommend booking at peak times.

Lo visité ayer. Muchos de nosotros pedimos pizzas y calzones y dos de nosotros pedimos un plato de pasta. Llegaron pizzas y calzones pero cuando llegaron nuestras pastas, todos habían terminado sus pizzas. Cuando finalmente llegó la pasta, fue difícil y tuvimos que devolverla, a estas alturas ya habíamos esperado más de lo que debíamos para la pasta y no queríamos esperar otros 20 minutos así que terminamos sin tener nada. Los platos deben ser sacados todos juntos, definitivamente no debe esperar lo suficiente para que todos los demás terminen el plato antes de obtener el plato que pidió. No estaba ocupado, así que no había razón para que esto sucediera.

Great food on busy Christmas Eve service, the manager which served us was very attentive with drinks and orders, no mistakes and very helpful with using the app

Amazing food and the kindest staff. I honestly love coming here and it is in a great location. The food tastes fresh and delicious

We had a broken chair and no cutlery. Food was good but as it was so busy service wasn't the best.

Reservamos Pizza Express Oxford Street, ya que estaba cerca del Bridgewater Hall, donde estábamos asistiendo a un concierto. Dejamos mucho tiempo para nuestra comida (llegó a las 5. 30 pm y necesitaba salir a las 6 . 55 pm). y recibimos una cálida bienvenida a la llegada. Nos mostraron a nuestra mesa y una orden de bebidas tomadas. Nuestros entrantes llegaron a la mesa en 20 minutos y en este punto el restaurante no estaba ocupado. Lamentablemente, entonces esperamos 35 minutos para nuestra red principal y tuve que preguntar sobre los tiempos, ya que estábamos preocupados por llegar tarde al concierto. Lo mismo sucedió cuando dijimos que queríamos pagar la cuenta, tuve que ir a llamar la atención de alguien. Esto fue una pena, ya que la comida era deliciosa, especialmente la ensalada de atún Niçoise. El restaurante no estaba tan ocupado, pero nos preguntamos si tal vez las empresas de recolección de alimentos, Deliveroo, Uber Eats, etc. estaban distorsionando la cantidad de demanda que había en el equipo, ya que nos dimos cuenta de algunas colecciones en curso. Vergüenza realmente como todo el mundo era amable y la comida era buena.

Nipped in before a gig, grateful to be seated quickly on a wet n windy Friday evening at 18:30. Food ok, shame no draft beers

While I had a disappointing experience, I was contacted right away and was asked about the circumstances. Their responses were very fast and they did what they could to remedy the situation. I will definitely give them another chance because I really appreciate their customer support. Thank you.

Really good food, and good prices.o by

Fantastic service, really friendly and approachable. Food was gorgeous, I had the Christmas feast and was hot and tasty. The manager I think her name was Christina, she really helped look after us! Will defo be back to this pizza express!

Had a quick meal on Friday evening and Katie was fantastic. Really good service and always on hand!

Delicious food. Were with the boys, just threw in some half liters, then had a nice pizza.

Had a fantastic time. Got settled fast and the food was amazing. Thank you to Willow who made sure we had everything we needed.. 5*

Willow was very nice very fast server- thank you! Food was also very good and came extremely quickly .

Great dining experience, our server Amelia did an amazing job

I came in for a meal by myself. I was greeted by a lovely lady (didn’t catch her name but she was short with brown hair) who quickly sat me down and took my order. I had a calamari to start and the Chicken Calzone which I would highly recommend. A lovely girl called Amelia was very attentive and offered me a second drink and dessert. I would highly recommend coming here, couldn’t fault it!

Booked in for an early dinner with my family before attending a show at the theatre. I was greeted with lovely smiles and was seated on my table straight away! Our server Amelia was so warming and lovely! I had a lasagna which I would highly recommend! All around great food and great service from Amelia!! Thank you.

Had pizzas for lunch. The service was prompt and friendly, especially from our server Willow. The atmosphere was relaxed and everyone was welcoming. Definitely a good place to go.

Katie was extremely friendly and professional and paid extra attention to my 4 year old daughter who loved the food... especially the ice cream dessert which Katie added chocolate sauce to. Thanks Katie

Food tasty but not very hot. Had to go find a server for cutlery. And wrong table number on menu so struggled logging onto app. Otherwise good option before theatre

Ubicación perfecta para el Teatro Palace - la comida era tan sabrosa, fresca abundante. Nuestro servidor era amable y eficiente. Siempre usará este restaurante cuando vea un espectáculo

Great location when the kids want pizza express and nothing else will do for them. Good atmosphere and ideally located for the theatre.

Great food. Massive shout out to Lee and Rob. Lee is super friendly, credit to the restaurant 👍😎

I have been to many other locations for this chain and never been so disappointed by the food and service as I was last night, we brought a friend there for the first time and had decent service to start off but then felt like we were being ignored along with all the other tables around us. Tables were not being cleared and we had to repeatedly ask for water. Everyone was waiting for their food for over 40 minutes and all though our pizza was good the sides were incredibly disappointing.

Amazing service by a lovely waiter called Lee. So welcoming and friendly, will be back every single time in I'm in Manchester!!!

Never had any onions for the pizza that I ordered then ordered a drink from the menu not in stock it seemed everything I ordered was out of stock. Service was poor asked several times for a drink only to be ignored.

100% recommend pizza express. 100% would not recommend just eat

Staff were very helpful but the food was not up to standard expected of pizza express.

The Pizza Express order page kept putting the delivery time back by 5 minutes repeatedly. Now, 2.5 hrs after I placed the order, it's still showing that the courier is at the restaurant. My order has not been delivered & I have no cancel option.

Everything you know and love about pizza express. And great to see it busy whilst not having to wait for a table.

Visited on a Tuesday afternoon. Very clean and tables well spaced. Lee was the only sever and was very efficient and organised. Good food and clean toilets. Open kitchen,

Nos sentimos tan desagradables en este restaurante. Nuestra comida no ha sido servida por más de una hora. Llegamos alrededor de las 6: 45 pm y esperó hasta las 8 : 30 pm pero aún así no se sirvió comida, ni siquiera los aperitivos que pedimos. Seguimos nuestra orden, pero ellos sirvieron primero a los que vinieron después de nosotros varias veces. ¡Así que nos fuimos! ¡El peor restaurante en el que hemos estado!

As a traveler, I visited with my son. The pizza was tasty, but I felt very unwelcome. To make matters worse, they cleared my food while I was still eating!!! Unbelievable!!! A place I will never visit again!

26.08.24. I went with my daughter to eat there because I had already ordered takeout and loved it. Pizza is really good, service too. Only I don’t give it 5 stars because I didn’t have a smooth wine… but I recommend it!

Great restaurant, conveniently located. Wasnt particularly busy for a Sunday evening. Great team, very helpful and knowledgeable! Both pizzas were hot, served quickly and of good quality. Decided on desserts as well and the sundae and cheesecake were great! House red went down well and good coffee to finish off the meal!

Today I ordered my favorite Pollo Pesto Pasta from your restaurant.. The pasta arrived white and not green.. We asked the waiter why.. The waiter was convinced that we were wrong and the pasta was right and kept arguing with us.. So we pulled out a picture from your restaurant's Instagram to make sure it should be green.. He didn't try to listen to us and kept talking while leaving us and said I'm just a waiter and I'm passing your comment to the chef.. So why didn't you do that the first time?.. After a while the waiter disappeared for a long time which strangely made the restaurant without service.. it was the time for the staff to change.. But it was the longest exchange I've ever seen in my life.. And the new waiter came without making eye contact with us at all, talking to us with his eyes somewhere else.. We smiled at him and he didn't smile and didn't make eye contact with us.. This branch is the strangest branch of Pizza Express I've ever visited.

The food was excellent, I went for a Sloppy Giuseppe pizza which was delicious, washed down with a nice Peroni of course. My daughter , who is aged 9, enjoyed the dough balls, pepperoni pizza and chocolate brownie. It was great to take up the kids eat free offer, also she enjoyed the bambinocinno at the end! The service was excellent, Kanika served us and she was such a great host, from welcoming us in, through to when we left - so friendly and helpful. The food courses all arrived in good time which was great too, when eating out with a child especially. It was a really good experience all round.

Ridiculous service. ‘Kids eat free’ but if we are so slow to remove your main course dishes (25 mins) and you have the theatre to go to so don’t have time for your kids to order dessert then we have to charge you more than an actual kids menu price!!! response received and has no bearing on me as we won't be back- worst Pizza Express in the country

Mis amigos y yo fuimos a cenar a este Pizza Express el 25 de agosto. Después de terminar nuestras pizzas, uno de mis amigos fue al baño y mientras estaba allí vio al chef - ¡el chef! - saliendo de un cubículo y saliendo del baño sin lavarse las manos. Cuando mi amigo compartió esto con nosotros, todos estábamos disgustados. Mi amigo se acercó y miró la cocina abierta, y vio que el fregadero de la cocina estaba lleno y rodeado de masa y no parecía estar en uso. Cuando el servidor vino con la factura, le expliqué lo que se había visto y pedí hablar con el gerente sobre esto. El servidor era encantador, amable y comprensivo. Era excelente. Lamentablemente, unos minutos después, el propio chef vino a hablar con nosotros. Como alguien que maneja un negocio por sí mismo, me sorprendió esta terrible decisión. Había pedido hablar con el gerente: obviamente el gerente debería venir a mí. Enviar al chef, por un asunto tan incómodo de higiene personal, es una gestión sumamente deficiente. Lo que empeoró las cosas fue que el chef, en lugar de disculparse, se mostró a la defensiva y grosero con sus asquerosas acciones. Admitió que no se había lavado las manos en el baño, pero insistió en que las había lavado en el fregadero de la cocina antes de preparar cualquier comida. También afirmó haber hecho contacto visual con mi amigo sobre esto y sugirió que se asegurara de que su amigo lo viera lavándose las manos. Hay muchos problemas con esto. En primer lugar, mi amigo dice que no hubo contacto visual. En segundo lugar, ¿por qué querría el chef hacer tal contacto visual a menos que supiera que había hecho algo malo? En tercer lugar, el fregadero evidentemente no estaba en uso inmediato. Finalmente, aunque todo lo que el chef había dicho fuera cierto, sigue siendo antihigiénico y repugnante salir del baño -y en el proceso tocar superficies, tocar la puerta del baño, abrir la puerta de la cocina para llegar al fregadero y demás- sin lavarse las manos. De manera crucial, el chef admitió que no se había lavado las manos en el inodoro. Le expliqué cómo esto era antihigiénico y poco profesional. El chef no se disculpó remotamente. Se puso agresivo conmigo y me preguntó si no lo había entendido. Me sentí intimidado y sorprendido. Mis amigos y yo queríamos que esta situación incómoda terminara y la cuenta se pagó rápidamente solo para que pudiéramos salir de allí. Es absolutamente repugnante que el chef usara el inodoro, y luego saliera de un cubículo -especialmente usando un cubículo, no un urinario- sin lavarse las manos. En lugar de que viniera el gerente cuando le pedí esto, vino el chef. En lugar de disculparme, tengo agresión y grosería. Una experiencia horrible.

Great place for meal after the theatre.. Very convenient. Food good
