Quick info
About PizzaExpress
Inside the ICC, PizzaExpress is a pizza restaurant at 8 Centenary Sq in Birmingham, overlooking the canal and Brindley Place. It opens daily, so the dining room is available every day of the week. The menu is built around pizza, with the Four Seasons Pizza and the Duo Romana among the choices, and a Warm Roasted Veg and Chicken Bowl Salad sits alongside them as a non-pizza option. An autumn menu adds bolder, spicier dishes to the range. Members of the PizzaExpress Club can redeem rewards on their visits.

Customer Review Summary
Pizza is the main draw at this ICC location, with diners praising a bbq brisket beef pizza on a sriracha and tomato base, the Four Seasons, and a crispy base with loaded toppings. Close behind are the Warm Roasted Veg and Chicken Bowl Salad, where one reviewer singles out the fresh roasted aubergine, along with halloumi fries and polenta chips. Service comes up repeatedly, with staff described as friendly, warm and courteous, helpful with signature pizza choices, and willing to make food as requested. The room is described as calm and quiet, and one reviewer mentions it overlooks the canal. Criticism is limited but specific. One reviewer describes a waitress as rude and condescending after failing to explain the deals they asked about, which led to an overcharge. Another didn't like the blue cheese dip and found the new dessert nice but not worth the cost, and one wished for better draught beer. One diner heading to a show notes the staff served them straight away.

“Waitress was rude and condescending after failing to explain the deals we asked about resulting in us being overcharged. Continued rudeness when trying to resolve. Could have been solved by clearer communication and more friendly attitude! :) Next time will be sure to spend my lunchtime readying over the terms and conditions instead of assuming the servers ability to communicate.”

“I absolutely loved the service at PizzaExpress. I visited yesterday with my family, and the food was amazing. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming. A special thank you to our server, Kal, who is from Nepal. She made our visit even more enjoyable with her kindness and excellent service. I have never experienced such friendly service before. Thank you, PizzaExpress, and especially Kal, for making our visit so memorable. We will definitely be back! ❤️”

“PizzaExpress really said “we don’t miss”. The pizza was straight-up elite — crispy base, loaded toppings, and zero regrets. The vibes were chill, the staff were super nice, and honestly my plate was empty in like 3 minutes 💀. If pizza had a main character, it would be PizzaExpress. 10/10 would absolutely demolish another one.”
