Pizza Express

Recently I lost my «Pizza Express virginity» and visited the restaurant by the beautiful Ipswich Docks. As a fan of deep pan pizza, I was skeptical to try the famous thin base pizza’s that were a speciality at Pizza Express. however, after a couple of bites, I was hooked. The pizza’s taste like real Italian home-​made pizza’s with fresh dough and creamy tomato purée. The presentation of the pizza’s was extremeley aesthetically pleasing and just as tasty. The restaurant itself is much bigger than it looks and the staff here were very welcoming and friendly.
Top tips:
1) Visit at night time. The lights along the bay set a very nice scene.
2) Save room for dessert. they’re amazing even if you don’t have the biggest sweet tooth

This was my second visit to this Pizza express. Went in for tea the first time, and it wasnt great, so left it a while to «bed in» before returning. Popped in on a monday at 2ish? for a late lunch. Service was fine to start with, but took a downturn as all the staff left except for one poor waitress, who had to serve the remaining 6 or so tables, plus the overs who popped in! Doughballs (what else!) to start, followed by a Fiorentina and a chicken ceaser salad. Food was lovely, and the romana base I had was exactly what I wanted. Resteraunt was clean and tidy, but very warm as it was a sunny day and they have soooooo much glass! Prices were reasonable, and the little Peroni Gran Riserva was an excellent companion to the Pizza. The lack of staff was an issue however; the phone was left to ring for ages until the chef popped out to answer it, and another table left without being served. This is no reflection on the waitress, who did as well as anyone could ask, but the management may want to rethink their staffing levels!
All in all, was enjoyable, and I would revisit. However, its still not a patch on the excellent Pizza Express in Lloyds Avenue! If you fancy a Pizza, id pop there instead, unless I really wanted to be on the waterfront.
