Pizza Express in Manchester

Great service, staff were extremely helpful. Will definitely be returning in the future!

Nice visit today server was lovely sorry didn’t get the name and both adult and children’s meals were gorgeous. Really like this branch

Great visit, food was served quickly despite it being busy. Staff were friendly and attentive. Will return in future.

me and my long term boyfriend had our first ever date here, was unreal, music was proper nice, food was unreal. service is only 4 because the waiter was a bit of a nutter but he helped with the overall experience x p.s dont the basement

Delicious pizza! Was worth the wait.

We were the only people in the restaurant at 21:30pm on Saturday at the time when my partner said he had seen a mouse. Whilst eating our food felt something run over my foot then looked down to see a mouse running around the bottom of the seating area. Manager was informed he said sorry and was offered no compensation then he went looking for the mice.

pizza was missing items and halloumi was mozzarella bites and cold

My experience in this restaurant was great. The service was fast and the waiters were nice and welcoming. Next time I am in Manchester, I will eat here again

Really unhelpful staff - wouldn’t change a pizza to pasta for my son as he had an allergy. I rang to change it after ordering via Uber eats.

Great pizza express as always, wasn’t busy and food came very promptly.

Me and my partner went to Pizza Express earlier this evening and it’s safe to say I will not be returning. Our food came out at the same time but there was a clear difference in the presentation and size. My partners pizza took up his whole plate, had plenty more toppings and looked more edible. Mine on the other hand was a whole different story. The pizza was no larger than my hand, barely had any cheese and the pepperoni was burnt to a crisp. I believe this is because of my celiac which is unacceptable considering this is an autoimmune disorder that cannot be helped. The service was unsatisfactory, this may have been because the restaurant was busy, but no guest should have to wait 15 minutes to get the bill considering there were plenty of waiters around. Despite this, we were seated fairly quickly, the food came out not long after we ordered and my partner enjoyed his pizza and dough balls very much.

I came in today to get some food and didn’t have a particularly great experience. I’m a coeliac so cannot eat gluten under any circumstances and so chose to order halloumi bites for my starter which is something I have done at other pizza express restaurants (it’s important to note that not once did I get asked whether I would like these as a starter or with my main) my friend ordered non gf doughballs as her starter and a non gf main. The problem occurred when my friends doughballs arrived and my halloumi bites didn’t (I assumed that since I can’t eat gluten the staff would have brought them out as my starter dish). After waiting for 8 minutes wondering if my halloumi bites were coming I asked a gentleman about it and he said they would come with my main and if I wanted them now it would be a 7 minute wait. I decided that since my friend had finished her starter I didn’t want to make her wait for her main so I had to sit for 30 minutes before getting any food I could actually eat and just felt quite dissapointed by the whole experience. Staff were friendly though and the food was lovely when it did arrive.

Really good service and the pizzas were great. Recommend the Burnt Ends Pizza if you like BBQ sauce inspired food. Go for romana pizza bases as you get much bigger ones. Classic is slightly thicker but not by much.

ordered off the set menu bill came, set menu had not been taken off , also mentioned I had a love to shop voucher I wanted to use. 10 mins later staff came back and refused the set meal price as they had processed the voucher first. and forced me to pay full price. NEVER AGAIN AWFUL SERVICE

Ordered through Uber eats on 18 Nov 2023 at ~20:30 (open until 23:00). Delayed from 21:30 to 22:00, then 22:10, now 22:20. Still no food with no arrival, and you can’t call the phone number as takes you to automated line. Do not get delivery from here.

The pizza tasted good, just a shame it was stone cold when it arrived. The garlic bread however was really disappointing, too thick and has literally no garlic flavour.

Dry cold pizza not happy at all please consider this a complaint I can provide any other Information you may need

We went to the restaurant last night, was the best experience we’ve had in a while. Although the place was very very busy, the staff were amazing and the customer service went above and beyond, plus the pizza was superb, thank you 😃

Lovely staff, great pizza and not ridiculously priced.

Grabbed a late night take away pizza after a long journey into Manchester - More than satisfactory and certainly filled the hole in our stomachs!

SEND family group of 45, and they smashed it. Amazing service, friendly, polite, accommodating of our families needs. Can't praise them enough!! Nathan your a ✨️. Thankyou so much, our families often don't get the experiences they got today and you made that happen. Virtual high five 👋.

I only ordered because of the 40% discount plus a £3 discount I had. Still a rip off, totally not worth it.

Food was way too late. Pizza was done on time, but was simply not collected by any driver.

The food on this occasion was poor. The pizzas were overcooked and the amount of topping was sparse. The music was so loud and so people were having to shout at each other to be heard. The tables are so close together that the waiting staff were brushing against the tables as they went past.

We were in Manchester for the Christmas Markets and picked to eat at Pizza Express due to it being one of the only places nearby that we could find with good gluten free options! Unfortunately, however, it seemed that the restaurant was severely understaffed (not the staff's fault at all) but it definitely impacted our experience with very long wait times and one drink being initially missed from our order. However, one other issue we found was the difference in gluten free vs regular pizza. Different toppings were ordered, but it was the same type of pizza off the same menu, yet the gluten free option was significantly smaller (the picture below really doesn't do it any justice, it was comical). The rest of the food was lovely, including a chicken Caesar Salad, 2 other Pizzas and a child's bolognaise, all of which was very yummy!

Unfortunately food took 1 hour 45 minutes to be delivered and was cold on arrival. Portion size of salad was tiny - really disappointed.

Excellent pizza and Doe balls, Very tasty indeed. Thank you.

Food was highly disspaointing. Vegan pizza was one of the worst i've had, with poor quality and volume if ingredients

We were all really happy with our evening at pizza express. I thought I'd deserved a table but I'd made a mistake amd it wasn't on the computer. The kind man that greeted us did a bit of swoplng about and fitted us 5 in. Excellent service from all waiters including the Greek man who was very friendly and helpful. All staff on the ball and we were sat close to the kitchen and could hear how well the team worked together. They have it off to a t! All in all a great night, we will return

This pizza express in Manchester is located in the Corn Exchange. It’s downstairs and nicely laid out. Service is a little slow but the food is good.

The service was rushed, a huge lack of customer service

Went in Sunday 24th, ordered a lasagne that came out cold. As I cut into it I knew it was cold, it was hard and there was no steam. I stuck my finger in it and it was cold. Wasn’t cooked at all. The sauce wasn’t runny and the cheese wasn’t melted - as if it hadn’t been defrosted. Had to send it back but took a while to get anyone’s attention. It came back out, same exact one but now was slightly burnt. There was no need to burn it, just wanted it to be actually cooked. The manager was apparently informed but didn’t get any comp for it even though I had to send it back so I didn’t leave a tip. They also had forgotten a plate of dough balls that we had to wait for at the start. So it wasn’t great. We had a gig to go to so wasn’t interested in wasting time. I have emailed the restaurant as instructed by the comment below, but no one ever got back to me. They’re not interested in remedying their mistakes either!

Pizza Express always delivers on quality and service.First visit to Corn Exchange yesterday, very enjoyable experience, staff especially friendly and polite and food absolutely delicious. Highly Recommend

If I could give less than zero for delivery for an Uber eats, I would. Over an hour for a stone cold pizza and I mean cold not warm. Driver tracking always saying one stop away. It's not the first time either. I would simply give up on delivery unless you just want to people to use extra express delivery.

What a pleasure it was to be served by Mizhgan on a recent visit to the Pizza Express in the Corn Exchange in Manchester. 2 of my friends and I were there for an arena show and were very glad we chose Pizza Express for our pre-concert meal after receiving excellent service from Mizghan. She was friendly, kind and went above and beyond for us on more than one occasion, despite it being a packed out restaurant at tea time. She’s a real credit to the company. Thanks again Mizghan for making our night even more special!

Pizzas were tasteless and toppings hardly seen .

Wow what a change tonight me and my family had an absolutely amazing evening amazing food pizza was outstanding dough balls so fresh. The staff so friendly interaction with the children very accommodating and the atmosphere in the restaurant was great could not fault it one bit definitely will be returning again thank you to management and all staff

We booked in advance and received a good welcome on arrival. We were able to order drinks, starters, and mains at the same time, and our food was served fresh and hot. We both had original dough balls, and I had a classic La Reine and my husband had a classic American Hot. I had a passion fruit lemonade to drink and my husband had a large Peroni. We each had the Honeycomb Cream Slice for dessert. The service was friendly and efficient, and the restaurant was clean, and there was a good atmosphere.

This restaurant offers a free class visit to local school children where they get to make their own pizza - it was an amazing experience for them! The staff are so kind and generous and the pizzas were delicious! Thank you so much

This order was the worst I ever received. Couldn’t even eat it, the chicken was cold and when we tried to microwave it it stunk out the whole house, then speaking to just eat they wanted proof of the food after I had thrown the food away so they offere £3 from a £30 order. Absolutely horrible

Service was amazing, the staff are super lovely and accommodating, food was awful and insanely overpriced. First visit in years and I will never ever return. Everything was tasteless. So disappointing when you’re paying £16-17 for a small pizza. Only thing decent was the dough balls and even they taste the same as the ones you get in the supermarket… don’t waste your money.

Amazing food, was soo tasty! Great service by Tryff, would definitely come again!

Came very quick but food was cold

Didn't enjoy my food, cannelloni, which was undercooked and very runny/sloppy. My daughter had a pizza which she enjoyed. Manager did offer an alternative but l really didn't fancy anything. For me not a great experience but think my daughter liked it.

Mizhgan was lovely, took really good care of us and our kids!

Served by Mizhgan who was very polite and attentive and made it a very memorable experience for a special meal with my wife. Thanks Mizhgan! She is a credit to the Pizza Express brand.

Lovely staff and lovely atmosphere, food is not to my liking personally but I think its good for people looking for italian style pizza x

Popped in for a late lunch. Service was fine although only one staff member serving so when it came to paying there was no-one to be found. Took a while to be given the bill & pay. Atmosphere was a little quiet but we did arrive at an odd time. We were seated across the restaurant to the rest of the guests which I guess just made it a little solitary. Food & drinks arrived quickly and was lovely!

Suitable for a large group but as with any chain a bit bland, especially when they get your order wrong

Good restaurant, staff and food. Basement location so no view outside

Visited again, loved the crispy thin Pizza's. Staff lovely and very efficient.

Awful experience and service, food took 90mins to arrive. Whenever we chased this up the waitress just replied ‘it’s not on my head’. Completely unacceptable response. We had booked in advance so surely the restaurant knew how many diners were expected. Other groups left without their food. Won’t be back.

underrated! The classic dough balls with the garlic butter might be my favourite thing in the world, been so many times and will continue to re visit everything i have eaten has been great. All servers are really nice too

Humair waitress not only takes ages to take the payment but also don't know what discounts are valid which days. Compared to other restaurant a really big disappointment.

NATHAN was very kind. Customer service 10/10. Pizza came quick and it was really tasty. Thank you Nathan. Will come again.

My friend and I had been to a spa in Manchester and chose to eat at Pizza Express as we had some Tesco Clubcard Vouchers. The Corn Exchange was the nearest Pizza Express to us so we chose this one. It was a hot sunny afternoon and most diners were outside, however the branch of Pizza Express does not have outside seating so we went inside. Naturally it was very quiet due to the weather. But the service was good and the food delicious. Previously we have always had the vegan nourish bowl at Pizza Express but as this is not on the new menu we had the Beetroot Buddha Bowl instead. It was delicious! For dessert I had the vegan ginger cake which was gorgeous and my friend had the Lotus Biscoff cheesecake. The desserts here are delicious! All in all a lovely experience.

Extremely slow service by a dark hair waitress, not knowing the menu and one more waiter to serve the next table and them having the food earlier than us. Management needs to train them properly imo.

Had the most wonderful experience and service with Miz - was on my lunch break, service was great, she was so kind and attentive! She managed to cater to make my meal entirely vegetarian which made me so happy. Give her a raise honestly! Couldn’t have asked for more. Will be coming again!

pizza was ok, not bad, but not amazing. very hot which was good. service was good. i’d come back here again.

We visited here after seeing a show at the arena and were greeted by a lovely waiter which provided crayons and a children’s menu for my daughter. Service was fast and the staff were really friendly. Food was good.

Definitely worth a visit - great 50/50 Romana pizza; amazing brownie and ice cream and wonderful friendly service! Only thing that let it down was thr Pollo Pesto pasta which tasted amazing but the portion is tiny! I was still really hungry afterwards. Other than that it all tasted great tho and a perfect lively atmosphere on a sat night for pre-concert meal! Just order the pizzas if you want to be full...

Pre show meal here for us. As usual very busy so you need to book ahead as many were turned away. Good menu with calories shown and gluten free also available. We had dough balls, calzone and leggera pizza with caramel dessert slice to follow. All absolutely delicious.

Had a okay experience. The dessert was the highlight.

Order was all correct, matched the menu descriptions, and arrived safely packaged. There are enough vegetarian options to find something you like. Ordered during the tail end of the lunch rush so we weren't fussed about delivery time, which was pretty close to the estimate.

Driver didn’t fallow directions

Visited on a busy Saturday night (we had booked) and food was fine but the atmosphere is somewhat ruined by a constant stream of delivery drivers walking past our table to the kitchen to collect takeaway pizzas. McDonalds have also made this mistake and it...

We just popped in for a quick lunch and wanted to leave a review thanking Becky/Rebecca who was our server on the day - the food was good as always but we were super happy with the service today, she really brightened up our day!

My daughters and I were served by Dan who went out of his way to make our visit enjoyable. My daughters eat a plant based diet and were not only provided with those menus but also plant based wine ones as well. Exceptional service, delicious pizzas and would highly recommend.

We were late, but they still had a table for us, quick friendly service, tasty pizza, bit expensive if you are from Yorkshire.

I was greeted with a smile at the Manchester Corn Exchange I was with my son for a chat and food. We were directed to a convenient table. The service was good and our waitress Megan showed a good knowledge of the menu and was keen to make sure that all was well throughout our visit. The timing of the food delivery was good. The food was as good as the service. Recommend to friends.

A really well run restaurant. Food is always good, service quick and great staff. This is our go to restaurant in Manchester. Pizza Express franchises can be hit or miss - this is a hit. Recommended.

I really appreciated that they accommodated my allergies/intolerances I felt safe and they understood. Unfortunately the place was so so loud I had to shout to talk to the other people on table and it left me with a headache. Also I found the prices very expensive for what it was. I also thought it was unfair that a vegan margarita was more expensive than a regular. Essentially I had to pay more because of my allergies.

Megan was a delight! Lovely service and friendly :)

Was served by Andreas today. He was extremely attentive, happy to chat, and an all round great waiter :))

Absolute excellent food and service from Andreas. I arrived half an hour before closing time and they were happy to serve me which was a pleasant surprise as I was expecting to be knocked back.

Andreas was great start to finish even used Toby tall on the receipt section lol . Joking aside great service lovely food

Had the pleasure of being served by Yas today. The food was brilliant and Yas was very welcoming and a brilliant server, making sure all was good with our table. She is definitely an asset to the restaurant. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal out today.

Tasty food, quick service and friendly staff. Great for pre-gig meals too for the nearby AO arena

Nice music which fits perfectly with the delicious food. Thanks Tryff also for being really pleasant. Totally recommend it!

Amazing service, very accommodating host with exceptional customer service skills! Couldn’t recommend it enough, the food was also spectacular- very quick too! Thank you :)

We had a fantastic time at our Pizza Making Party! Thanks for being such a great host and we loved the extra touches for the two birthdays in the house as well - all very much appreciated :)

We went to this Pizza Express before going to a gig I had rang ahead and checked if the restaurant was accessible. A member of staff came to us outside and put down a ramp for the wheechiar user to enter the building and directed...

Lovely staff all very friendly and welcoming, will definitely come back if we visit the area again 😊

Attended on the 16th Sept before a gig, upon arrival the restaurant was quiet and plenty of space, and we were greeted by a lovely man. Our server then came over, who we found out was named Sam. For our entire visit he was friendly...

Very enjoyable afternoon dinner. The service from Tryff was excellent,thankyou.

21st birthday party for 12 and the b day girl books the wrong restaurant. Thankfully Sam saved the day. Seating us and serving with a smile. Even took the time to talking through allergies. Made the evening amazing!!!!+ THANK YOUUUU

Tryff! A very good host catered to our needs of a couple with a young child. Service was fast, food was delicious and even gave my little one 3 free dough balls

Really amazing food and beautiful atmosphere. Tryff was our server and he was extremely nice and helpful, always checking in on us it was a really sweet and comforting experience

Tryff was amazing! Great service and great conversation. He’s the man.

Excellent service and a friendly smile - really enjoyed my experience here.

Food was lovely & we were looked after by Sam who was extremely friendly & accomodating. Would definitely recommend.

Mark was very kind and welcoming, served me with a smile and was super fast checked if everything was OK. 10/10

Fast, friendly service. Beautiful pizzas.

Excellent service and Tryff was very accommodating and helpful with my partners preference for very spicy food by adding extra chillies and chillie flakes!

Amazing food & great atmosphere Tryff was attentive & made our visit enjoyable by going above & beyond

Fantastic service, great food! Thanks to Yas for looking after us and for being so accommodating with kids’ choices! Perfect!

Nice and quiet. Portions were generous and food was very tasty. Great service from all staff but especially Tryff who has a great personality and was quite entertaining, especially with my kids. Would definitely recommend.

Great spot of dinner after a day exploring Manchester. TRYFF was our server and he was great! Thanks ever so much.

Tryff was really friendly, provided quick service, food was really really good we especially enjoyed the billionaire sundae

Had a great night here with my boyfriend food was 10/11 an the lotus sundae I had was delicious great service by tryff thank you for our evening 😀 xx
