A wonderful little place
I went to Pizza Express for an anniversary meal with my partner - neither of us had been there before but both of us love Italian food and thought it would be an interesting mix of fast food restaurant/quality restaurant and we were both pleasantly surprised!The building itself looks quite beautiful and inside is really rather posh, the staff dress nicely, the lighting is complementary, the tables are set beautifully and the decor is lovely.We were quickly attended to and we didn't have to wait too long for our meals. There was a great range to choose from, it was actually hard to pick what to have but I went for a lasagne which was quite large and very filling, but very tasty indeed.It is quite expensive but you definitely get what you pay for, and despite the fast food sounding name of the restaurant it is far from it and the sort of place I would happily have a romantic meal in again.

Great food and atmosphere
Love the Jesus Lane branch of Pizza Express, especially if you get a table in the Libary room, not the conservatory, although its nice in the Conservatory, conversations bounce of the high glass ceiling like nobodies business and you cant really hear what your party is saying most of the time due to the noise. The libary is lovely though, really charming and adds to the quirkiness of this Pizza Express, alot nicer than other PE in cambridge. Again its pizza express, so no surprises what food is on offer, but you know you can rely on the food being consistent and good, and the service is always pretty good, bar a few times when it is very busy at peak periods, they usually handle it well. Always come back to this place and will do so with a group of us girls in a few weeks time!

loving the location
My first Pizza Express experience was at the branch here about 6 years ago. I'd passed the Pizza Express on my way back to the train. It was a frigidly frosty February day, and the gently lit restaurant looked especially enticing. I'd never actually heard of Pizza Express before, and didn't even realise it was a chain, but after my first Pizza Express experience I have to say I really was very impressed. The Menu was great. The staff charming. The toilets were stylish & impeccably clean. Best of all, the bill scarcely made it into double figures.

Pizza in a fabulous setting
At first sight you may walk past Pizza Express' pillared facade in Jesus Lane, not realising it's a restaurant. Inside it is equally lovely, with a comfortable waiting area and a simply stunning mirrored dining room. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed. The food is consistently good - the fiorentina pizza with egg and spinach is always a treat, as is the generous salad nicoise with its dinky dough balls. Children are welcomed, although I prefer to savour this branch of Pizza Express without ;) Dessert-wise, the tiramisu and cheesecake are particularly good, and they make a good strong cup of coffee. For a chain-stylr restaurant, this is surely as good as it gets.
