In a paragraph

PizzaExpress Chester The Exchange is the St John Street chain pizza restaurant for Dough Balls, Romana pizzas, kids menus, vegan and gluten-free options, delivery, collection and practical city-centre meals.

What it's like

PizzaExpress Chester is exactly the sort of place that is easy to sneer at until you are with tired children, mixed dietary needs and no appetite for a dining debate. Then the Dough Balls start looking strategically sound.

Chain pizza doing chain pizza

It sits at The Exchange on St John Street, handy for the Amphitheatre, walls, Eastgate and Picturehouse side of town. Nobody needs to pretend it is a local discovery. Its job is predictable pizza in a useful spot.

Worth knowing

PizzaExpress is not special, and that is sometimes the point. Use it when children, allergies, offers, booking and a known menu beat the romance of choosing somewhere better.
