PizzaExpress Richmond Red Lion Street

In the bustling heart of Richmond, a short stroll from the river, PizzaExpress Richmond Red Lion Street offers the kind of welcome that has made the PizzaExpress name a fixture of British dining. Stylish yet relaxed, the room glows with soft lighting while open kitchens provide a little theatre; the aroma of baking dough and garlic sets the pace for an easygoing meal. On sunny days, the garden beckons for leisurely al fresco moments.

The cooking leans Italian-inspired, with a clear love of crisp bases and clean, balanced flavours. Romana pizzas are the house pride, wafer-thin and satisfyingly crisp, with favourites such as the Margherita, American Hot and Padana showing the brand’s knack for harmony. Simple starters like bruschetta and garlic bread with mozzarella ease you in, while comforting al Forno plates, from pollo pesto to Lasagna Classica, bring warmth. Salads keep things bright, and desserts like gelato or Chocolate Fudge Cake close the curtain sweetly.

Whether gathering the family, slipping in for a quick lunch or settling into date night, the friendly team and consistent charm make it an easy choice. Pair your slice with something from the bar and let the evening unspool.

Follow the scent on Red Lion Street, claim a seat in the garden or by the kitchen, and let the good times roll… thin and crispy.
