This is a nice Pizza Express branch, located on Lapwing Ln in West Didsbury, there is street…read moreparking and a Metrolink station nearby, so the location is good. The location looks good, following a recent refurbishment, in the main restaurant area, there also is a basic upstairs area, ideal for functions and parties, but this area is quite basic. PRO TIP: If you're dining in, be sure to download and use the Pizza Express app, the rewards available are great and depending on your tier status you can get a bunch of free stuff including dough balls, a soft drink, large bottled water and a Romana pizza upgrade. I managed to save over £25 on my most recent trip. The prices are a tad expensive for a chain Italian without these offers, but with their loyalty scheme, it becomes extremely good value for money, especially as you can combine it with a Pizza Express gift card which is often available at 20% off at large retailers such as Amazon and Tesco. I ordered my usual order, a gluten-free Pollo Pancetta, with gluten-free dough balls, the staff were friendly and were happy to make this for me, as they had all the ingredients, even though it was discontinued from the menu last year. I was pleased with the quality of my pizza and the speed and friendliness of service too, especially considering I visited during a busy Saturday, it can get a little uncomfortable here when the restaurant is full and the seating area can easily feel cramped, while is attractive at non-peak times. There is a couple of tables available to sit outside on a rare nice day in Manchester. My guests shared a Funghi di Bosco Pizza, on a Romana base and were pleased with the thin and crispy Romana base and the flavours. 4*

Patience is a virtue…read more The location of this particular Pizza Express - on Lapwing Lane in West Disbury - means it can get extremely busy at weekends. The fact there's three seperate dining areas also means you can sometimes go five or ten minutes without seeing so much as a glimpse of your waiter or waitress! If you're the impatience type, I suggest you go somewhere else or even better, learn to kick back and R*E*L*A*X? After all, food should be savoured and appreciated rather than wolfed down. And believe me, the food at Pizza Express is usually darn good. There's lasagne classica, cannelloni, pollo pesto, melanzane parmigiana, multitudes of salads and side-dishes and a tantalising assortment of pizzas. Regulars usually opt for one of the Classics like American Hot or Fiorentina but there's also Romana pizzas with a super-thin base or Leggera pizzas which are all around 500 calories and include a salad in the middle instead of dough. Even better, this branch is located in an old post office building and retains some of the original features - which should provide a pleasant distraction whilst you're waiting for your waitress to bring your coffee and gelato!

After 21:00 in Manchester on a weekday your food options are very limited, I stumbled upon Pizza…read moreHut and was pleasantly surprised. Nice new location in the Manchester City Center, and they do not turn you away 20-30 minutes early like other nearby restaurants who are closing by 21:30. I was greeted by the manager and was quickly seated. Shortly after I ordered, a few more tables were full of hungry customers. Nice and clean inside and a drink tower towards the rear of the restaurant by the salad bar. Free refills available. They also have a bar in case your in need of that pizza pairing alcoholic beverage. I ordered the meal deal which included an individual sized pizza, a drink and a starter. The mozzarella cheese bites sounded good and were. Only gripe, guess were spoiled in the US and want ranch or marinara with them, they have hot sauce, BBQ and ketchup available at the tables. The pizza came out quick and was delicious, pan crust with bacon, ham, sweet corn and a drizzle of BBQ sauce. Would come back here again, delightful staff and solid food.

I managed to pick up a promotional deal which was a small pizza (including gluten-free) with a side and drink for £11.99. This location is on Fountain Street, a stone's throw away from the Manchester Arndale and only a short walk away from Piccadilly Gardens, and St Peter's Square, all you need to do is turn past the large (and newer) EE store on Market Street opposite Primark, and you're there. The staff seemed pretty friendly and had no problem speeding up my order, the online ordering process was super simple up until when I'd ordered it. I was told my food would take 40 minutes despite requesting ASAP which makes no sense as 40 minutes isn't ASAP: The restauraunt sorted it with a quick phone call and I got my food within 15 minutes or so which was much more reasonable. For my pizza, I ordered a gluten-free chicken supreme, I did enjoy the toppings, especially the chicken but I found the base to be far too thick and bland, it wasn't pleasant at all which was a real shame. This is something I've found to be common with Pizza Hut's rectangular gluten-free base at other locations. 2* - Pretty basic pizza joint, now this might work in your smaller town but in a big city like Manchester where on a regular day there are dozens of fresh italians if you choose here you're pretty much spitting in the face of authentic cuisine.

No other nearby restaurant I checked offered this, but Pizza Express did. I usually wouldn't order a dessert, but since my phone was charging, doing so gave it a bit more charge time.

I don't think so and this new branch of Pizza Express provides the perfect location. Situated in the middle of Piccadilly Gardens, it's flooded with natural light throughout the autumn and winter and turns al fresco in the spring and summer with half a dozen tables spread outside on the patio. The good news for locals is that the company have just announced that they're extending their Special Offer of 50% off all pizzas eaten in until 31 January. All you have to do is log onto the website and download the coupon. And you thought your Sunday couldn't get any better!

Plenty of parking onsite and upon entering the establishment I was greeted by the loud noises of children running around but surprisingly clean especially with the amount of families there. Not appealing as it may sound but it's to be expected what would you expect when parents are taking advantage of the lunchtime offer. I took to getting a margarita pizza slice and a hawaiian with salad, and knowing that the fizzy drink was a concentrate I decided in procuring a nice cold bottle of san miguel from the bar which does have a small selection of beers and ciders as well as wine. The margarita pizza slice was slightly doughy with a bit too much sauce, mind you consistence is key especially if you was churning out pizzas left right and centre and the pineapple chunks on the pizza did seem a bit too dry though If I wanted a hawaiian I'd expect a subtle tang from the pineapple to compliment the ham which is not what I got though, though it seemed this was forgotten. The staff were friendly enough with everyone which did make eating out comfortable. Overall if you want something quick to fill a gap then yes bearing in mind it could be practically hit and miss with the pizza, but would recommend going for an alternative on their menu such as the lasagne. or the bucket of chips which did look crisp and chunky. I have yet to visit pizza hut stockport at a later time to see if the ambience changes.

The rest of my group included 2 vegetarians, a celiac and someone who hates cheese, all of who were carted for nicely. The staff dealt with our group pretty well, despite a few awkward requests. For those of you who don't know, I work for the NUS which meant we all have NUS extra cards. So yeah, a decent but not amazing experience but given on the day we qualified for 40% off, I have absolutely no complaints whatsoever.

I last reviewed this place in October 2020, since then I have become more and more of a regular,…read moreand this Pizza Express branch on King Street has truly impressed me to the point I wouldn't go anywhere else in Manchester for pizza now, they deliver one of the truly good gluten-free pizzas around, not only that but this place also stands out compared to other Pizza Express branches, in terms of service and food quality, this is not just one of the best places to grab a pizza in the city (at a competitive price) but one of the best Pizza Express branches in the country. The staff are super friendly here, much more than you'd expect from your average chain Italian, they have begun to remember my face and order, even the Chefs say Hi, as I sit next to the open kitchen. My current favourite order is the Pollo Pancetta This is described as "Chicken, crispy Italian pancetta, tomato with garlic, red & yellow roasted peppers, mozzarella and parsley" I feel all the flavours complement each other very well, making a pizza that isn't just visually appealing but one that tastes great too. The gluten-free selection here is pretty good, including a small number of other dishes such as penne pasta. They do have a nice selection of spirits including Bacardi Rum and Kettel One vodka, I would like to see a better range of cocktails however as it always works out a tad expensive ordering a double spirit mixer. The gluten-free dough balls are normally cooked well, with a generous helping of garlic butter. PRO TIP: Complete a Pizza Express survey based on your experience, and you get your next portion of dough balls (RRP £4.50) for FREE! Better yet, you can use this with other promotions too such as Tesco Clubcard Boost or Unidays 30% off for students. The restaurant looks and feels good, the service is good, the food is good, so an upgrade to the full five-stars is certainly deserved.
