Eat & Drink
Located in the heart of Colchester’s historic Dutch Quarter, tucked away behind the imposing Victorian Town Hall. The perfect place to grab a pizza and take in the views of Britain’s Oldest Recorded Town.
PizzaExpress believes that dining out should be one of life’s highlights. It’s why every PizzaExpress pizzeria is packed with pizzazz and only the freshest and perfectly sourced ingredients will do. It’s why every dish is made with care — and flair. Because at PizzaExpress, a pizza doesn’t just mean dinnertime, it means showtime.
On the menu you’ll find icons you know and love like Dough Balls, American Hot or the Sloppy Giuseppe, as well as vegan or gluten-free options, and lighter dishes such as the Leggera. Not to mention the children’s Piccolo menu, signature cocktails and unmissable desserts.
So let PizzaExpress turn your main course into a main event when you dine out, takeaway or order for delivery. And if you join the PizzaExpress Club, you can earn treats on the house every time you dine, from a free child’s meal and more at Gold to doughballs at Bronze.
