PizzaExpress has always been my go-to spot for a relaxed meal out.
As someone who eats gluten-free, I’ve found they cater brilliantly without sacrificing taste or options.
So when I heard about their new summer menu, I couldn’t wait to give it a try.
The wings were coated in Sauce Shop’s Buffalo Hot Sauce and served with a creamy blue cheese dip.
They were messy in the best way – tangy, spicy and completely addictive.
Both dishes felt fresh, packed with flavour and ideal for kicking things off.
For drinks, we tried the new Soho Spritz.
It was fruity and refreshing without being too sweet – ideal for summer.
And with their current deal of two for £12, it felt like a bargain.
Then it was time for the pizzas.
I ordered it on a gluten-free base, and as always, it was crisp and light without falling apart.
Each quarter of the pizza had a different topping, which made it ideal for someone indecisive like me.
One part had pepperoni and Calabrese sausage, bringing heat and richness.
Another was topped with baby plum tomatoes and basil pesto, fresh and herby.
There was also a quarter with mushrooms and truffle oil, which felt indulgent and earthy.
And the last section – salty anchovies, olives and capers – packed a real flavour punch.
It’s a pizza that truly has something for everyone.
But then came the real star of the meal – the Calabrian Feast.
It was loaded with ‘nduja, Calabrese sausage, pepperoni and crispy pancetta.
On top of that were two types of mozzarella, Gran Milano cheese and an extra chilli kick.
The finishing touch was a drizzle of hot honey, which balanced the heat beautifully.
Every bite was packed with bold, spicy flavour and rich, creamy cheese.
It was indulgent, fiery and unforgettable.
Now, I didn’t try it myself, but PizzaExpress has found a bold new way to tackle the pineapple-on-pizza debate.
Instead of serving it on pizza, they’ve created Hawaiian Hot Dough Balls.
Tossed in garlic butter, topped with pancetta and pineapple, and drizzled with Pineapple Habanero Hot Sauce, they’re certainly a talking point.
According to new research from the brand, the UK is split 50/50 on pineapple on pizza.
But more than half of people say they’d try these new Dough Balls, which just might be the middle ground we’ve all been waiting for.
For dessert, we had the Birthday Cake Sundae.
It was sweet, playful and totally satisfying.
Layers of vanilla gelato, raspberry coulis, whipped cream and sprinkles made it feel like a celebration.
It even had a mini sponge cake and a topping of Joe & Seph’s Birthday Cake Popcorn.
A proper party in a glass.
PizzaExpress has nailed it with this summer menu.
They’ve kept their classics while bringing in bold new flavours and playful twists.
Whether you’re a spice lover, a sweet tooth or someone who wants variety, there’s something here for you.
And for gluten-free diners like me, it’s one of the few places where you feel totally looked after.
The Calabrian Feast alone is worth the visit.
This menu is a summer treat that genuinely delivers.
