Pizza lovers can now dine out in style following the refurbishment of a popular chain restaurant.

Pizza Express in Highgate High Street reopened on September 16 with both indoor and outdoor seating for balmy autumn evenings.

The interior has wooden panels, floral wallpaper and mood lighting for intimate meals.

The menu has not changed so customers can dig into favourites including dough balls, American hot or sloppy Giuseppe pizzas, as well as vegan or gluten-free options, and lighter dishes such as the leggera pizzas.

There is also a 'piccolo' children’s menu, signature cocktails and "unmissable" desserts.​  

A spokesperson added: "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."
