About

Pizza Express Aldwych is a vibrant Italian restaurant serving freshly made pizzas, pasta, and seasonal dishes in one of central London’s most cultural districts.

The restaurant sits right at the junction of Aldwych and the Strand, surrounded by theatres, hotels, and historic landmarks. This prime spot makes it a popular choice for pre-theatre dining, business lunches, or relaxed meals with friends. With Covent Garden, Somerset House, and the River Thames just a short stroll away, Pizza Express Aldwych is perfectly placed for locals, professionals, and visitors exploring the area.

The menu celebrates classic Italian flavours, with pizzas at the centre. Guests can enjoy favourites such as the margherita, american hot, and sloppy giuseppe, alongside lighter options from the leggera range, which feature a fresh salad in the middle of the pizza base. Pasta dishes include pollo pesto, lasagna classica, and bolognese, while starters like dough balls, bruschetta, and garlic bread are perfect for sharing.

Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diners are well catered for, with dishes such as the vegan giardiniera and gluten-free american hot. Desserts include indulgent choices like chocolate fudge cake, tiramisu, and gelato. Drinks range from Italian wines and beers to cocktails and soft beverages, ensuring there’s something to suit every occasion.

The atmosphere is relaxed yet lively, with stylish interiors and attentive service. Families are welcome, and the piccolo menu ensures younger guests enjoy their own set meal with dough balls, pizza or pasta, dessert, and a bambinoccino.

With its mix of authentic Italian cuisine, inclusive menu, and prime Aldwych location, Pizza Express Aldwych is a reliable favourite for theatre-goers, professionals, and visitors alike, offering a slice of Italy in the heart of London’s West End.
