After several recommendations I finally decided to give this place a try because I was in the area.
Ordered a classic parmo and I wasn't disappointed!
Very fresh and juicy , not like some places that serve up a dried up old bit of chicken.
Every ingredient was banging. Even the chips were great and I don't normally eat chips.
The staff are all super lovely too.
It's nice to be able to have a chat when waiting for your freshly cooked food .
Definitely the best parmo in town and I'll be returning to try the pizza , I highly recommend it.- Parking

Hi Rob. Thank you for your kind review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your food. Hope to see you again soon.
Great to see the original Express takeaway back open in Scarborough, same great food and service, just in a new location. Had a delicious full Donner Parmo, I nothing left but a small amount of nice, fresh salad...very FULL now! All the staff were friendly, working hard as it was very busy on a Wednesday night, probably because of how good their food and reputation is. Keep up the great work!

Really friendly and welcoming and the food was amazing. We got a pepperoni parmo and a classic calzone. Lots of food for a reasonable price (and free drinks!) Would recommend!

The parmo was spot on. Ive Had a few in town. But this was definitely the best I've had for a long while.
My partner said the burger was really good, and my daughter demolished the pizza!
Which is a good sign 🤣
Definitely recommend.

Hi Poppy. Thank you for your kind review. We are glad you enjoyed your food. Hope to see you again soon 😀
1st time trying 1st express but it certainly won't be the last, staff were very friendly and food was 5 star. I had doner kebab the best I ever had. The salad was beautifully fresh. Grandson had burger and ate every bit including salad which is a bonus.

Very welcoming and family run. The cleanliness is outstanding. Hand stretched fresh dough made in front of you. Easily the best pizzas I've ever had. This is my new favourite take out. Thank you so much for top quality food and lovely service

First time visiting was very busy inside but we ordered over the phone and was ready when we arrived. We ordered 2 hotshot parmesans 2 meat feast parmesans and a margarita pizza. Owner took a minute out of his time to talk to me he was very confident in his food and I said I would leave a review with my opinion. The parmesans are one of the best I have tasted and 100% the best in Scarborough we all went for the full parmo with is only a couple of pounds more none of us managed to finish it and the garlic sauce again the best around. I definitely will be returning although after the parmesan don't think I'd want to try anything else. I can't comment on the pizza as my youngest disappeared with it but not heard any complaints.- Service

We’ve ordered from here multiple times and recommend highly. The staff are all friendly. Food is always hot and delicious - we regularly order pizza, calzone, burgers, chicken kebabs and Parmos, and everything is always cooked perfectly.
