I have been here twice this year, both times the food was excellent and the staff were lovely. The restaurant itself is nice and has a great view of the river. What more can you ask for? As well as this I am lactose intolerant which can cause problems when eating out, however at this restaurant they have an entire vegan menu and they will adapt pizzas to make them lactose free. The pizza dough recipe here does not contain milk. The staff here take intolerances seriously and are very helpful when you have questions. In my experience, some restaurants act inconvenienced or do not understand when you have a dietary requirement, but I can eat at this restaurant with confidence as I know that the food will not upset my stomach whatsoever which is rare as I have a stomach condition on top of lactose intolerance. They have amazing vegan garlic bread, even my partner was impressed with it. The vegan cheese that they use is really good too, unlike most places. This is our go-to restaurant now in York and I highly recommend it.

Beautiful old building, leaves you thinking what used to happen there. I've liked Pizza Express since the 1990s. It's still got it. Superb staff. Very polite. They want to make sure you are having a good time. Nice fresh pizzas, not full of grease. A bottle of Peroni somehow tastes better in a Pizza Express than elsewhere.

If you've been to one Pizza Express, you'll know what they're like; there usually isn't much difference between them all. This York one stands out from the others I've visited though. It's in a nice Victorian building overlooking the river, so you get a nice view of the bridge when sitting by the windows. Food itself is the usual - served nice and hot, didn't have to wait long even though it was very busy. Staff were the stars of the show though. I didn't get his name unfortunately but, whoever the tall dark-haired Italian man is, send him my thanks! Very friendly, gave great recommendations on wine, and was very helpful and patient with me while I was having issues with the PE app.

Seated at 6:25 pm, drink and starter served by 6:30 pm, but my pizza didn’t arrive for another 35 minutes. Staff were friendly but never checked in on me in a half‑empty restaurant, it seemed they were busy with takeaway first. Food was tasty, but that wait was unacceptable.

Excellent food. Service was really good. We have visited other Pizza Express Restaurants many times and this is by far the best as the food was cooked to perfection and we didn't have to wait too long between courses. Please also thank the waiter who served us. I forgot to mention how brilliant he was. He was so welcoming and my husband enjoyed talking about football with him! You deserve the 5 star review!

As always, Pizza Express has great food in some lovely settings - here, right in the river beside one of the main bridges in York. It's not cheap, but it's quality food with good service. My only slight disappointment this time was the distinctly-average glass of Montepulcciano d'Abruzzo, but that's a minor quibble, as the food itself was great.

Popped in for lunch with my wife the place was deserted as you can see from my pictures the service was exceptionally slow the place was empty because it was the beginning of November. we had the Padanna pizza which is goat's cheese, sweet caramelized onions, spinach mozzarella tomato and garlic oil I also had a portion of chicken put on the top and it was delicious always love Pizza Express. I also had a great lemon drink in a can. Many thanks for your response. Shame everyone doesn't. Like PX in skipton

We have been visiting Pizza Express on Museum Street for many years. It has a great atmosphere - relaxed, friendly and nicely busy. The staff are always helpful and pleasant. I can honestly say that we've never had a bad experience.
