Pizza Express - Stirling

Nice pizza place to eat at. Staff were great and very attentive and chatty. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed. The food was delicious, however both pizzas we got (Sloppy Giuseppe and BBQ Burnt Ends) were finished with pepper… a lot of pepper, and we finished our meals with our mouths burning. That said, the food was truly delicious, and I would recommend Pizza Express to any pizza loving person.

3.5/5 for our experience, so rounding up to 4. The restaurant is in need of some TLC with broken floor tiles and peeling wood on the dividing walls. The service was excellent friendly and efficient. The kids meals were great with a healthy stater, small pizza and pudding for £7.25 which we felt was great value. The adult pizzas however were a little disappointing. The gluten free base is tiny and the cost should reflect this. Toppings are a little sparse on adult pizzas mozzarella doesn’t make it to the edges. I‘m a pizza chef myself so completely understand that too much topping makes for a soggy pizza, but I wouldn’t leave a large section without mozzarella. I would definitely recommend this place for kids.

The restaurant has a charming decor and is very clean. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, which enhanced our dining experience. It’s wonderful to see that Pizza Express provides a substantial discount for students through Unidays, making it a great reason to stop by. The food was excellent, and overall, it was a fantastic experience.

We didn't eat at the restaurant but instead opted for their new delivery service, which turned out to be quite disappointing. Our two pizzas arrived cold and over half an hour after they were picked up, despite our home being just a five-minute drive or bike ride away. The delivery person casually mentioned that he had picked up two other deliveries before ours, which explained the delay. When I called the restaurant to express my concerns, they were polite and seemed surprised that it took so long to cover such a short distance. They suggested I file a complaint through the Pizza Express Chat, which we did. Unfortunately, the only compensation offered was a voucher for one pizza, meaning we would have to purchase another to use it. The restaurant itself is lovely, but I would not recommend ordering delivery from here.

We stopped by for dinner on our way back north at the end of our holiday. The food and service were excellent. It was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday night. The kids' meals were a great value. However, the cheesecake dessert was a letdown—definitely don’t order it! It wasn’t worth £3.50, let alone £7.50; it was quite small and didn’t come with any cream or ice cream on the side. I mentioned my disappointment to the staff, but they informed me that the pricing is set by headquarters and didn’t offer a refund or discount despite my request.
