March 2010 will see the 45Th year since our founder Peter Boizot opened the first PizzaExpress restaurant.
In 1945 Peter Boizot returned to England after travelling to Italy. To his dismay he was unable to find a authentic Italian pizza anywhere.
After finding his first restaurant loctation and import a pizza oven from italy, Mr Boizot strated the company we know and love today
Meni the corrent manager of the first PizzaExpress, Wardour Street say ...
" Its takes more than a few words to describe the pride, success and fun we having work at PE Wardour Sreet. Having previously worked in Southgate, I moved to the Wardour Sreet in 2007 and enjoyed everyday of it!
Its a small restaurant in a hearth of theatre-land and popular Soho, itself an area rich in a arts and music, with bags of its own history. Soho was in fact at the forefront of rising popular culture in the sisties, just as Peter Boizot introduced a real Italian pizza to the local people.
The building still retains its original chram and is unique among our other restaurants. WE are ofetn full in the evning with a diverse and ecletic mix of regulars, tourist and theatre-goers that like a good banter!
My team and I feel privileged to work at the original PizzaExpress. WE have a competitive streak and a passion for food which means we are always aiming for the top and are very pround to be part of the history.
