    I reckon Pizza Express is by far the best of all the restaurant chains, probably eat there once a month, sometimes more…

    It’s perfectly fine, but this is STW. So unless the pizza oven is built in front of them using artisanal tools, then it’s just inedible crap.

    yeah the price of beer in those places is always a killer, £5-£6 for a 330ml bottle of peroni or even worse *shudder* a 250ml bottle. yup Tap water with ice all the way.

    MrsMomo and I went to our local one last Thursday for some pre-gig food and drink, used a 3 courses for £12.95 voucher and turned £6 of tesco clubcard points into a £24 voucher, alright, spent £18 on a bottle of wine, but 3 courses and a bottle of wine for £20 isn’t too bad in my book.

    MrsMomo also states that they have far and away the best gluten free pizzas of all the chains and dough balls of all the chains.

    Like my LBS I figured I could get a discount at Tesco by bringing in cake.

    They told me they already had plenty of cake.

    £4.25 in that London as well, so jekkyl must be dining in some sort of VIP secret Pizza Express?

    That was pre cinema and shopping.

    Then I suspect the £15 spend at the pizza place paled into insignificance!

    I’m a bit of a hipster foodie **** and will usually quite happily eat in Pizza Express – their pizzas are actually pretty damn good.

    The problem is that it’s in Dundee: not great if you live in the south of England, which is littered with high st. Pizza Expresses (Expressi?)

    lol, I meant pseudo posh wannabe type restaurants in general not just pizza express, however 4 quid isn’t much better.

    Better than most proper restaurants tbh.Pizza Hut’s is actually a really good effort, it’s just that it’s a really good gluten free Pizza Hut pizza, with all the same character as a normal pizza hut pizza. Good or bad…

    If I had ever eaten out with my mates at my dads expense i’d have doubled the bill too.

    ….and menu is pretty limited..

    Well, they sort of do pizzas. If you’re not into that, probably best if you go somewhere else….

    Our town in London suburbia has a Pizza Express and Ask Italian opposite each other. They’re both by the same company (well they were anyway)

    My 4 year old son’s favourite restaurant is Ask, what have we done? 🙄

    I hate myself for saying it, but £4 for a 330ml bottle of Peroni* in central London is *shudders* quite reasonable.

    *Which isn’t even that nice.

    …at the risk of sounding like a broken record, it’s also cool that they carry gluten free beer, and do more of a range of deserts than most. Makes no difference to most people but it’s real attention to detail and willingness to go further and I reckon that reflects well outwith the funny diet stuff. Mostly we get to the desert and it’s, oh well, guess I’ll have an ice cream.

    (Greens pilsner btw; not bad at all.)

    Tesco vouchers.
    Many of vegetarian options.
    Very predictable portion sizes and published nutritional values for my diabetic daughter.
    Loads of branches.
    No nuggets of poo in their ice according to that recent investigation.

    God bless Pizza Express and all those who sail eat in her.

    If I go to the British Museum, I’ll go the the Pizza Express in Coptic Street. I always get a big ‘za usually an Americana Hot, and I’m pretty sure I’ve never paid £15 for one even without Tesco vouchers.
    Thought so, less than twelve quid. And I expect to pay more to sit in a nice room, with service, rather than grab a couple of slices from a street vendor and try to find somewhere to sit and eat it while trying to juggle the ‘za and a bottle of drink.
