About PizzaExpress

PizzaExpress is a pizza restaurant at 95 Lapwing Ln in Manchester, with an upstairs room set aside exclusively for children's birthday parties. At a party, a host helps the kids make their own pizzas, and each child receives a pack of things to keep them occupied. That gives families a ready-made celebration format without taking over the main dining room. The menu includes a pizza on a Romano base, a burnt ends pizza and lasagne for guests who want something other than pizza. Soave wine is on the list alongside the food.

Customer Review Summary

Children's parties are the strongest draw, with reviewers describing a host who helped with the pizza making, kept the timing running smoothly and stayed on hand for anything needed. One reviewer also praises the upstairs room used exclusively for the party, which suits a loud group of eight-year-olds. Close behind, families mention the kids eat free deal, the kids meal deal and a kids' pack that keeps children occupied, with servers described as friendly and great with children. Diners also name the burnt ends pizza, which looks huge but is very thin, the Soave wine and the desserts. The complaints are about the food. One reviewer found the Romano base pizza dry and overdone with hardly any cheese, and a lasagne that was mostly béchamel and tomato sauce with three pasta sheets and little meat. Another said the food arrived warm and went cold quickly, and felt it was poor value, though both still called the staff friendly. Several party hosts note their groups cleared away their own confetti before leaving.

    “Just had our son's party hosted here and the kids all had a blast. Logan was a great host getting the food etc and helping with the pizzas, timing all ran really well. Great that there's a room upstairs as well exclusively for it because a group of 8yo boys can get Loud, and it's a really good sized space for moving around in too etc. Thank you!”

    “We went because the picnic I’d planned with my friend was rained off! We were looking for somewhere that was doing the kids eat free deal - summer holidays are just so expensive. My son was so excited when I told him the plan as he loves Pizza Express. This was a great branch! There were plenty of other families there so we felt more relaxed and it didn’t really matter that our kids were being noisy. Peter was looking after us and was amazing! So great with the children. He said he doesn’t usually work at that branch and was just sent there for the day so we felt lucky to have had him!”

    “Today we celebrated a 10th birthday at Pizza Express! 🎊 Our host was Logan, he was incredibly helpful and wonderful with the children! He really got stuck into the pizza making and was always there if we needed anything! We were also able to set up our own backdrop balloon stand and dessert table (@luxe_bakehouse & @luxe_eventsmcr) , we made sure to clean up all our confetti once we were done! Fabulous day! 🥳🎊🍕🎉🎈”

    “We had a great time celebrating Darcy-Beau's 10th birthday! Logan was a great host, friendly, helpful, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The children had an amazing day and thoroughly enjoyed themselves from start to finish. I'd also like to think we were the best customers, as we made sure to clean up after ourselves before we left! Thank you for helping make Darcy-Beau's birthday such a fun and memorable celebration. We'd definitely recommend it to others.”
