Came here twice while in London because the GF dough balls al forno were just that good - got a salad (fantastic, with lots of toppings) the first time and GF pasta the second. While dishe did not come out marked, each waiter made sure to verbally confirm items were gluten free when delivering to the table. I believe the pizzas do come out on a special black tray to designate they are gluten free. Great selection of GF desserts as well

There were a surprisingly high amount of gluten free options here! Most pizzas could be ordered gluten free and even the dough balls could. The crust tasted great and fresh and the pizza as a whole was amazing. The staff were also very nice and accommodating with everything. All in all this was an amazing place!

The pizza is okay. It comes out on a black slate to distinguish it from the normal pizza. They have a disclaimer that the gf stuff is <20ppm. I’ll report back if I get sick.

Pizza done GF and halloumi bites. Really tasty and no reaction. The GF beer contains barley malt (apparently common in UK) so drink with caution, I avoided.

Ordered a few gluten free pizzas for the table and the houlloumi bites. I enjoyed them but might have enjoyed them more simply because of how hungry I was. Finished it all though and didn’t get sick.

Wonderful experience! I ordered the mixed salad and chicken pesto pasta. I tested both with my Nima and they were safe. The owner said they do many, many gluten-free meals each week and take it very seriously. The food was delicious. I am coming back tomorrow to try a pizza.

Not a dedicated gf restaurant, but they understand gf and take it seriously. My son loved his pizza, lots of options to choose from. The dessert menu had many gf options. The service was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals and I highly recommend this restaurant.

Delicious GF and non-GF pizza. A casual, sit down restaurant but the service was pretty quick. Lots of locations throughout London. Like every restaurant we went to in London, it took gluten-free seriously and ensured there was no cross-contamination.

Friends told us we had to try Pizza Express for GF dining while in London. Their GF Dough Balls made my son who has Celiac happy & full. GF pasta & pizza options. Good for takeout or sit-down. All GF food comes out from the kitchen clearly labels “GF”.

Accredited by the Coeliac UK.

GF & GF Vegan Options.

I had the GFV pizza and it was very good. I wish it had a little more veggies and the crust was great but the other the rest of the base was ok.

No negative reaction and overall good quality.

Went here my first night in London with a friend, hadn’t tried the chain before but was very impressed by its information on its allergen menu (no loose gluten flour in the kitchen!) and its accreditation by Coeliac UK - got dough balls and the vegan pizza to split, it was all really good and felt really safe :)

Pizza express is always great for gluten free everywhere, it’s my go to. Lots of options. Dough balls are great. Every pizza can be done on their gluten free base which is a really good one. If you get the app you get lots of money off.

Staff were very friendly and very accommodating to my gluten intolerance. They serve GF pizza on a black board so there’s no chance of it being mistaken for a gluten-containing pizza. It tastes really good!
