Pizza Express

Paddington's newest arrivals, Pizza Express, have thought of everything, with specially themed artwork featuring a famous bear and a certain station.

The new restaurant in Merchant Square can seat 154 and estimates that 1,000 kilos of dough will be used in its first month – that's 4,000 pizzas and 1,000 portions of their trademark Dough Balls to you and I.

Al fresco eating is catered for, with stunning views over Paddington Basin, the Fan Bridge, paddle-boarders and the Grand Union Canal. Menus include Pizza Express staples with even more low calorie mains and desserts, a new range of premium pizzas, new gluten-free recipes and some specials for the summer. Children can enjoy the classic Piccolo menu and create their own pizza from just £3.95.
