Very disappointed only about 15 customers and still service and food quality was poor. Just moved to Macclesfield will definitely make it the picturedrome and wood fire smoked pizza next time. Waitress looked at us with disdain chicken parmigiana was that rubbery I had to give up half way through, asked my 14 year old son and he thought it was disgusting too. Wouldn’t be so bad if the poor service ended there but we then had to wait over 15 mins for the bill asked 2 staff members only got the bill taken off us when we got up to leave. I always always tip but I was that disappointed I didn’t. Pizza Express you need a new manager in here pronto really not good!

Absolutely disgusting service in here today (04/08/2024) Staff seemed to have forgotten about us, when asked where the food was they went to check and came back and said the food has just gone in now. 1hr 20mins later the food finally turned up. Staff not the friendliest in here today. We come here quite a lot but todays visit will definitely be our last.

Booked online to this place for dinner. Not really a good weather for a night out. We were ushered to our table, the place was busy I asked for a place where it’s warmer to sit. We just ordered pizza’s and some drinks. The waitress was very welcoming and polite. She took our order and waited for about 10 - 15 minutes with our order. The pizza was excellent..just perfect ! We really enjoyed it after how many months of not eating pizza. The only thing we don’t like is..there were so many guys eg..probably Uber eats delivery drivers (not sure if they are) blocking the door of this establishment when we left the premises. 2 drivers standing in front of the door..!!! Apart from this it’s a pleasant place to eat pizza! I can highly recommend this place.

We visited here as a family if 6 for our 3 year olds birthday meal. Upon arrival, the place was really quiet, and after reading some mixed reviews our initial thoughts were “oh, have we made a mistake?” We were quickly greeted and taken to our table. Our server Natalie was fantastic throughout. She could not do enough for us. The food and drinks were all served quickly and everything was delicious. The place soon livened up but we did not feel crowded or rushed. Natalie got wind that it was our daughter’s birthday, and added a candle to her brownie and sang Happy Birthday. This was such a lovely touch, and this will definitely be a birthday meal we all remember. Genuinely, I cannot think of a bad thing to say about this Pizza Express, and we will definitely be returning in the future.

Almost empty at 12.25, our waitress was new and we were patient and she did her job well, but time went on before we got drinks, dough balls were great, but my pizza was £16+, thin base, extra pepperoni and chilli, when it arrived it was burnt and very very thin, with the crispness of a poppadom, very salty, soggy chillies, we were a party pre booked for 4 adults 5 children, my order was not the only one to disappoint, our last visit was also disappointing but we gave it another try, sadly we don't recommend Pizza Express and we will not be going again. We have had better meals and pizza at wetherspoons, and before you judge we also eat at far better restaurant's

Upon arrival we were greeted by a young lady. First impressions do have an impact on how well the night will go. The only way i can describe my experience was depressing, All throughout the time we were there i was personally getting laughed at and getting dirty impressions ( as the kids would call it). Not a good look on the business. Only reason I'm giving this a 2 star is because the food was average.

Arrived at 5pm. Only one other table in at the time. Took my son (11yrs) and his friend out for a treat tea. Waited an hour for 2 pizzas.really Small in size - looked more like kids sizes despite being off the adult menu. Both were still hungry after and I cooked again when I got home. Waited a further 20 mins for dessert menu. Gave up. Asked for bill. £45 for 2 pizzas, 1 garlic bread ( pitta size) and 1 drink as one just had tap water. Waited a further 15 mins to pay before giving up and leaving cash on the table to then be asked on the way out if we were paying card or cash. Wouldn’t go again even if it was free

They couldn’t have been more helpful and attentive and they made a birthday visit very special, managing delivery of the preorders to the correct person.

So... Pizza Express, like many chain restaurants, is trying to keep alive during a time where many people will be cutting back on their spending. Gone is the pretentious music with a generic selection for folks in their 30s/40s/50s taking it's place. There are subtle but noticeable reductions in the size of food on offer. It's an effective cost saving strategy, and although there's less value there, it does give you space for more things I guess. A big difference for me is an attempt to heat the plates to keep the pizzas warmer for longer. They still get cold quickly, but that's probably due to the marble tables. Overall, if you can spend £30 per person on pizzas, you've found the best place.

Fantastic service, scrummy food - and the personal touch. We visited on 13 February and we’re seated at the rear of the restaurant. The greeter was super friendly and really welcomed us nicely. The food and drinks were gorgeous as normal, esp the Peroni reserve and the ginger and blackberry sparkle. We usually choose food to share and we had a couple of starters and mains between us. The server really added the personal touch by requesting that the pizza be split between two plates so we could just enjoy without juggling things around. Paying special attention like that makes all the difference - we never asked for that but little touches really do delight customers. Thank you pizza express for going the extra mile - you probably didn’t even think twice about it but it left a really positive memory for us. We had: mushroom arancini and chillichurri dough balls, duo (half and half) pizza (fungi and spicy chicken) and pollo pesto pasta. All absolutely delicious.

The “Duo “ Romana was very nice but one of our party ordered the leggara which should come on the same light crispy base , it was very stodgy and unpleasant, when we complained we saw the young waitress take it up to the manageress who in the distance shrugged her shoulders and rolled her eyes , the manager came across and argued / explained that they’ve changed the style of it ( although the menu still described it as being on the Romans base ) , the toilets were also in pretty poor condition, shame as Pizza express is a regular haunt of ours

Asked politely for anymore and was told it was an extra 75p for another thimble! Ordered 5 as we had 36 dough balls. Was advised it was company policy now. Picture of garlic butter to follow…..

OK, it's a little Pizza Express in a small Cheshire town, but the pizza calabrese! My god! WOW! I've eaten pizza all over Italy, but the calabrese here is STUNNING. Totally authentic and tasty to the Nth degree. Respect to the pizza chef...amazing authenticity. Most Northern European calabresi are bland and uninspiring. Not this! Fabulous.

It makes me really sad to give a bad review but our experience was really one you wouldn't recommend to anyone. We arrived to be told food would be an hour from ordering. We had to stand at the door for a few minutes while some tables were cleared and I felt there wasn't really a good place to stand as it was so busy. There were tables full of fed up looking customers and after a while we came to the conclusion that the take away and Deliveroo part of the business was being prioritised over the diners. It was hard to get the staff over as they were clearly busy and quite possibly short of people due to covid etc so they were avoiding eye contact with us when we wanted to get the bill or ask a question. The staff who came over were polite without a doubt but no one apologised for the long wait and when I flagged someone down to ask for a clean fork (mine had food on) they happily got me another but I would have liked a 'sorry'. Our table was sticky and our food was OK but not generous. One of the GF Pizzas had a good two inches of dry pizza crust around the edge and the topping was sort of in a circle in the middle. We didn't complain because the staff were probably doing their best in difficult circumstances and lacklustre service is rarely the fault of those who are front of house. The thing was, we would have happily stayed for a dessert and a hot drink and spent considerably more if our table had been properly cleaned and if the service hadn't taken so long. The Deliveroo person was striding up and down the restaurant and the general ambience was busy busy busy, extremely loud and stressful so we chose to leave as soon as we could. It's sad because we are a vegan and a GF vegan and your menu provides us with choices we struggle to get elsewhere. We'd love it if someone took these points on board and we could come back to find it improved.

Birthday night out with friends. I ordered a vegan pizza which looked really appetising on the menu. What I got was salad leaves on a pizza base. Supposed to have aubergine, sun dried tomatoes, humus, chili's and more, all of which was in short supply. Lots of salad leaves to cover the lack of anything substantial atop the pizza base. I made a complaint but the waiter couldn't be bothered to come back to me. Jaw dropping pizz-a-poor service and the quality of the food is an absolute joke. My first and last visit to pizza express, Macclesfield or anywhere else for that matter. In total it cost £26 for a single cow turd of a pizza and 2 beers (£7 a bottle). Absolute amateurs when it comes to food and service but they've got ripping off customers down to a tee. Shameful.

I explained we had been waiting 45 minutes for the bill and he didn't seem bothered. His customer service was terrible as was the waitress who served us. Considering your'e listed at No.5 on TripAdvisor, and we were the only paying customers in the venue at the time you expect more. I also work in hospitality so understand the pressures but it was middle of the day and the place was empty, it simply was not good enough and although the food was great and the hostess was lovely this is 1 of the reasons i can't see myself returning and why i give it 2*

The prices aren't cheap, and we wonder how they will cope with the new competition from The Picturedrome?

I have been going to Pizza Express in Macclesfield for many years and really enjoyed the experience and food until tonight. Unfortunately Deliveroo have moved in and wow what an absolute car crash of a place. Clearly the priority is on pizza deliveries at the massive detriment of the dining experience. Deliveroo drivers and bikers constantly coming in and out of the front door and massive waits for restaurant diners. Clearly the business model has moved to take away. Do not bother going here anymore as the waiters will not tend to you and deliver pizzas to drivers or people ordering take aways. Truely horrifying experience. A real shame. I will not return

Waited 5 mins and the staff ignored us until a 'gentleman' who I think was the manager shouted from halfway up the restaurant 'just sit anywhere' it didn't make us feel very welcome or valued! Young lad who served us was very good though. Food was nice. The staff generally didn't seem interested or very observant. We were the last to leave and nobody said thanks or goodbye.

This chain serves cheap ingredients [pasta, bread, tomato puree, rubbery cheese and economy sausage toppings on standard pizza bases and lumps of dough] for silly prices. Nearly £7 for less than a pint of half decent lager ! The service was no better either. We bought the set menu and were charged for individual items from the standard menu. Also waited ages with hungry kids when the place wasn't even a quarter full. Why any discerning person would ever want to patronise this rip-off chain is a complete mystery.

Took ages to order, get food and pay. Waiter was pleasant but seemed to spend ages talking and taking orders from tables.

We have visited a couple of times over past few months as we get regular discount off the food bill. Staff have always been pleasant and helpful & service has been good. Food is OK. Personally I wouldn’t visit if we didn’t get the discount as I do not think it is good value for money, if we had to pay full whack for the food. I heard a while back from family members who visited Pizza Express, who were given info by their waiter, that the pasta dishes and also some other dishes were not made onsite and were brought in. I cannot Warrant the cost of these dishes knowing this and have never ordered any of these dishes because of this and have always ordered pizza, as these are made fresh.

We really enjoy going for tea here, and it’s our go-to meal out. I’d say make sure you never pay full price, vouchers are always available online and they offer really good student discount. Staff are all really helpful and friendly.

Upon arriving service was good but then no one came to take our order or drinks for almost 15 minutes. Food was all hot and tasty but a bit spicy. Very clean as well.

We went for lunch,the place wasn't busy and was nice and clean. I had the bolognese which was nothing special but pleasant enough, what spoilt it was that it was only warm. The problem was probably that it was served in a cold dish. The non alcoholic drink I had was lovely strawberry Sicilian lemonade.

Gotta love the pizza's here - always hot and fresh. The vouchers that you can get for Pizza Express make it much more reasonable for a quick lunch or dinner with friends - not sure I would pay full price! The staff are always helpful and friendly. I find the drinks expensive but the staff are also happy to bring a jug of tap water to your table if required.

As always great food at a reasonable price. Our server tonight however made the evening. My daughter turned 7 today and a great fuss was made over her. Will definitely return.

Had a voucher for a birthday free bottle so went on a Friday early evening. Wasn't too busy ordered children's pizza starer of prawns which were good a pizza and chicken pesto pasta. Seem to be a mistake with bringing our mains so was a delay. Manager was very apologetic. Other staff were a bit slow. Pizza was good, pasta wasn't as nice as previous visits.

We visited pizza express for our tea last Friday and I have to be Honest its proberly one of the noisiest restaurants I've ever been to, the building itself is all open seating from one end to the other and it has low ceilings, this meant that the noise level was excruciating , we felt that the waiters and waitresses should have ear plugs as part of thier standard uniform as we couldn't imagine working an shift there without going home feeling slightly deaf !

We have been coming to Pizza Express for a few years, since our children were small, visited on Saturday as an end of GCSE treat but came away disappointed. The menu has hardly changed in the years we've been visiting, out of pasta bolognese, hardly any cheese on one pizza, had to ask for pizza cutters, service uninspiring, overall Pizza Express needs to do better if it is to hold on to customers once their children reach teenage years!

This was the first time in this branch and we were not disappointed. 3 vegans in the party and the food was lovely. Clean setting, lovely service and great food. Only niggle was the music which was a little too loud for comfort. We will be back.

I visited here with my friend and his son following a trip to see the local football team. We had endured the coldness of a November outside but the warm welcome we received soon made us feel we had made the right choice. We arrived about 20 minutes before our booked time but we were shown to our table with the minimum of fuss. Our drinks order followed promptly and we were soon tucking into our starters of Dough balls, Bruschetta and Garlic Bread. All three were very tasty. We didn’t have long to wait for our main courses either, even though the place was buzzing with fellow diners. Two portions of Lasagne plus the Spinach and Ricotta Cannelloni were just as good as the starters. Service was polite and efficient. Well done everyone. We enjoyed our visit so much that we are planning a December visit to another local Pizza Express.

Slow service. Must be short-staffed. Moved tables as got dripped on from leak/condensation and the same happened on the 2nd table. Had a drip land on my last mouthful. It was freezing. So cold that I had to put my coat over my legs. The food was very tasty but overall it was not a good experience.
