Pizza Express - Chichester

We came to Chichester for a birthday weekend and to take the bus to the sandy beach of West Wittering. We were spoilt for choice for places to eat here but decided on Pizza Express because its consistently tasty. This branch did not disappoint! We received a lovely warm welcome, it smelt so good, had nice lighting and the food was delicious. I am normally so happy that I can still order the retro Four Seasons pizza but this time spotted a king prawn pizza. Oh my!! On a thin large romano base this was utterly heavenly! The dough balls were piping hot, the bottle of montepulciano was delicious and a perfect temperature as usual. We turned into animals and made utter pigs of ourselves by ordering desert-chocolate fudge cake and Billionaire's pudding, all so yummy. Our evening however was made perfect by the delightful and charming waitresses Elaine and Kerry, these young ladies were so attentive and lovely. A huge thanks to them for making our evening so very special.

The greeting and waiting staff at this restaurant were outstanding, displaying exemplary politeness, friendliness, and attentiveness, earning them a solid 5-star rating. While the pizza was good and up to par for Pizza Express, there was a missing item that I had requested. The waiter was very apologetic about the oversight, though it was not a major issue for me. I do have two concerns about this establishment. Firstly, the state of the floor was quite disappointing. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty when I visited at 1pm on a Sunday, the floor appeared as if it had not been swept or mopped in days, which may have contributed to the presence of flies buzzing around. Additionally, while the pizza maker did wear a hair net, his beard was not properly covered, which was surprising. Although the food has a 5-star rating, the condition of the floor makes me question the validity of this rating. Overall, the pizza tasted good and the staff were excellent, but the state of the floor was a bit unsettling.

My family and I, went to Chichester for the day. And we stopped off at PizzaExpress for lunch. PizzaExpress offer a wide variety of food, options, ranging from starters to main courses, to deserts. The staff are always very friendly and the food is exquisite.. You will always leave here with a full stomach. This PizzaExpress is just down the road from the cathedral. Would highly recommend.

We, myself, my son and a friend arrived at 6pm, by 7pm I was asking where are mains were, we had another hours wait for desserts coffee. They were far more interested in their takeaway business, they couldn't have cared less about us the patrons eating in. When paying we were asked if we'd like to add a tip, I declined, saying the service was shocking

The food was great but unfortunately the service wasn’t. I couldn’t see any staff as we walked in so we waited at the desk to be greeted but no one arrived so we seated ourselves. We weren’t sure if it was open but a table of what I assume was off duty staff members assured us that it was open. As we sat down a staff member appeared and walked past us and headed straight for the family that had just walked in and seated them and took their drinks order whilst we sat for a few minutes and waited to be acknowledged which only happened after one of us had asked for menus. Once they’d realised we were there (despite sitting in the middle of the empty restaurant in clear sight) the service was ok and we managed to order some drinks. We were charged for two large beers when we only ordered one which we’d only noticed once we’d paid and left. All very disappointing.
