Honestly, I'm not so much a Pizza Express fan (see my other review of the Highgate location), but the service here puts it over the edge. It may have been because the place was pretty empty, it may be because this is a tourist-heavy location so the staff is trained to be extra nice... whatever it is, it was good enough for me to seriously consider coming back here.
A friend and I were looking for a place with WiFi where we could plug in our computers and do work. Pizza Express had plenty of tables so we decided to try going there. Unfortunately, we couldn't get a table by an outlet (but the staff would have let us move if we were still there when one opened up), but the staff was extremely accommodating. We decided to share a pizza - half a topping I like, half a topping she likes - and the waiter had the kitchen cut it in half and put it on two separate plates for us.
They also let us take over two tables: one for our food and one for us to actually sit at and do work. They never seemed put out by us sitting there a bit without eating, nor did they make us feel unwelcome.
Although the food isn't the best, the quality of the service here (and free WiFi, yay!) almost guarantees that I'll return if I'm in the neighborhood, hungry and needing to get work done.
