Having ordered the carrot cake and coffee, I was informed that these were unavailable at the time of ordering. The location had limited supplies of different items on the menu which I have yet to encounter in a Pizza Express.
The team were apologetic in that respect and were warm and friendly throughout. The food tasted great but I notice the size of the portion and the amount of butter given on the doughballs was small; The smallest I have come across where other branches are a lot more generous!
Little improvements such as having cutlery on my table would not go a miss. A staff member delivered my dough balls without any cutlery. The soft drinks provided were warm in the bottle; normally they are chilled from a fridge.
Little niggels made it a less pleasant experience than normal but I would visit again.
Lovely to see some Italian wines from unusual grape varieties on the menu - I enjoyed a glass of Soave from Northeastern Italy. We skipped starters and shared a Caesar salad and the La Reine pizza. There were a few issues here - firstly the kitchen was out of egg, Parmesan and Cos lettuce, so our Chicken Cesar salad was just chicken and rocket leaves (we were still charged the £13 though). We also went for the ‘classic’ pizza base, which turned out to be a thin base (not thick as described) and overall quite a small pizza. I would recommend opting for the Romana base which is a thin base (though no thinner than the thin classic base we had), but the pizza is considerably larger. We shared a pudding of brownie with vanilla ice cream afterwards, which was delicious.
