The experience

Some of our favourite events happen in back gardens. Birthdays, anniversaries, christenings, engagement parties or simply a long summer evening with friends: private party pizza catering turns dinner into the entertainment. We bring the restaurant to you: a wood-fired oven glowing with real flame, a menu your guests order from whenever hunger strikes, and pizzas that emerge blistered and charred, fresh off the fire. There is no buffet going cold on a trestle table; everyone eats fresh, and everyone watches theirs being made. We handle the plates, napkins, sauces and every scrap of rubbish, leaving your garden exactly as we found it. From intimate gatherings to milestone celebrations, we make hosting feel suspiciously easy.

Hosting at home

Can you cater a garden party at home?

Yes, we set up in your garden, cook every pizza fresh to order and clear away afterwards. We need a flat space of at least 3m by 4m and no mains power or water for the oven, and side gates and driveways are usually no problem at all.

If you are unsure about access, send us a photo and we'll confirm. If you need fewer than about 20 pizzas, our DIY pizza party is a great fit, at £250 plus VAT and drop-off only.

What is a relaxed alternative to doing a BBQ yourself?

Pizza cooked in your garden by us: we bring the oven and cook every pizza to order, so nobody is stuck at the grill. We bring plates, napkins and sauces for every guest, plus boxes for any leftovers, and we take all the rubbish away.

Each pizza is 10 inches, which makes a good meal for one. Our pizza catering starts from £12 per head plus VAT, with a minimum booking of £400 plus VAT. For prime summer weekends, May to the end of August, the minimum may be higher depending on demand.

Can you cater a christening or a milestone birthday?

Yes, christenings, milestone birthdays and anniversaries are all private parties we cater, at home or at your venue. Tell us about any allergies or dietary needs when you book and we'll go through them with you before the day.

Vegetarian pizzas, vegan cheese on request and gluten-free alternative bases with notice (contains mustard) are all available.
