01 The story, in three paragraphs

Why everyone keeps coming back.

Pizza Express Ltd, located at 141 Torbay Rd in the heart of St. John's, NL, offers a delightful Italian dining experience that seamlessly blends classic pizza flavors with a welcoming community vibe. This pizza restaurant stands out not only for its mouthwatering menu but also for its vibrant and fun atmosphere, making it an ideal spot whether you’re grabbing a quick slice solo or enjoying a casual meal with friends and family.

Their menu is a celebration of comfort and rich flavors, with standout offerings like their jumbo Garlic Fingers with Cheese—oozing with melted cheese and perfectly garlicky crust—that will instantly draw you in with their golden, crispy edges and inviting aroma. You can pair these with an array of dipping sauces ranging from creamy Cheddar and zesty Donair to cool Ranch and classic Pizza sauce, each adding a flavorful punch to every bite.

For those craving heartier meals, the Wings, Fries, and Poutine selection hits the mark. Whether it’s the one-pound wings tossed in your choice of mild, medium, hot, BBQ, or honey garlic sauces, or the Ziggy Fries Poutine that layers crispy fries with rich gravy and cheese curds, every dish bursts with robust flavor and satisfying textures. The Wing Dinner and Chicken Fingers and Fries options bring variety and comfort, offering a perfect balance of spice, savoriness, and crispness that will keep you coming back for more.

Dining at Pizza Express Ltd goes beyond just fantastic food. The restaurant recently relocated just a few doors up to a much larger, more inviting space that perfectly complements its upbeat character. With TVs and several seating options ranging from stools for a quick bite to cozy tables for longer meals, the ambiance is casual, lively, and incredibly welcoming. As one enthusiastic guest, Jonathan Young, vividly shared, this upgraded location “is very FUN,” and the friendly staff add a genuine touch of warmth that transforms a simple pizza night into a memorable occasion.

Customers consistently rave about both the taste and service. Tee Buff’s TikTok-inspired visit unveiled a delicious pizza and wings combo, complemented by “super super nice and friendly” staff, making it clear that Pizza Express Ltd prioritizes not only quality food but also an exceptional customer experience. Matthew Gough echoes this sentiment, praising the “good food,” “cute little spot,” and “really nice front end staff” — a testament to the spot’s ability to charm visitors and locals alike.

Fast service paired with non-greasy, flavorful food is another hallmark of Pizza Express Ltd, as Kieth Voong points out, highlighting the great value and speed without sacrificing quality. And if you’re a first-timer hesitant about delivery, rest assured—it’s been perfected here. Ches Ruth’s glowing review of their jumbo deluxe pizza delivered flawlessly on a rainy night sums it up best: this is already a “favorite pizza joint in St. John’s” that leaves patrons eagerly awaiting their next visit.

In summary, Pizza Express Ltd is a beacon for anyone seeking authentic Italian-inspired pizza with ample variety and a hearty side of comfort food, all served in a bright, energized setting with genuinely friendly faces. Whether it’s the cheesily irresistible garlic fingers, the perfectly sauced wings, or the fun and quick dining environment, this local hotspot captures what it means to crave pizza and truly enjoy every bite.

New location! Just a few doors up from the old location. Very FUN store front with tv and several tables and stool locations to grab a single, or order from friendly staff and relax for your order. It's great to see the tremendous location upgrade!

We tried this place for our first time on this rainy night and had it delivered by SKIP (who also done a great job and followed instructions). We had a jumbo deluxe pizza and it was AWESOME! This is definitely our favourite pizza joint in St. John's now and we can't wait to come back to the east coast and have it again next time. Thanks for the care that you folks put into your pizza (toppings very evenly spread on every slice). If you are looking for a great pizza to try, give this place a try and you will not regret it. Happy eating!
