Who we are:
At PizzaExpress, we’re all about good food, good times and being our true selves - just like Peter Boizot intended when he opened our first Soho pizzeria in 1965. His bold spirit, love of real Italian pizza and passion for people shaped who we are today: one team, keeping things simple, putting our customers first and growing together. Peter’s legacy lives on in every slice we serve and every warm welcome we give. Cheers, Peter.
