FAQs
HOW MUCH PIZZA WILL WE NEED?
This always depends on the type of event. For evening weddings where the majority of guests will have eaten during the day we suggest catering for between half and two-thirds of a pizza per person. For events where pizza will be the main food then we suggest between two-thirds and a whole pizza per person.
WHAT HAPPENS IF WE HAVE ORDERED TOO MUCH?
We will always cook the amount of pizzas you have ordered, so if it isnt looking likely you will consume all the pizza within the serving times agreed then towards the end of service we will cook and box up the leftovers so guest can have a takeaway pizza or they can continue to graze later into the evening.
WHAT HAPPENS IF WE RUN OUT, CAN WE ORDER MORE ON THE DAY?
To limit food waste, we only bring the amount of dough for the quantity of pizzas you have booked. Our dough takes 48 hours to proof so it’s not possible to make extra on the day.
DO YOU PROVIDE PLATES AND NAPKINS?
Yes, we provide white paper plates and napkins as standard. We also carry pizza boxes for leftovers or whole pizza requests.
CAN YOU DO GLUTEN FREE?
No, we do not offer gluten free pizzas as our pod is too small to have a gluten free area and thus cross contamination can occur.
WE ARE STILL FINALISING NUMBERS, CAN WE CONFIRM FINAL NUMBERS CLOSER TO THE DATE?
Absolutely, upon booking we will ask you to choose a quantity of pizza so we can raise the deposit invoice. The final balance is then due 2 weeks before the event at which point you can confirm your final numbers. We will then adjust the balance invoice to reflect this.
HOW DO WE SECURE THE BOOKING?
To finalise the booking, we just require a few details from you. We will then raise a deposit invoice for 20%, once the deposit is received we can confirm the booking. The balance is then due two weeks before the wedding.
BUFFET STYLE OR A WHOLE PIZZA PER PERSON?
We offer two types of service, buffet style and pizza per person to order. The buffet style service works much better for private events, we lay out four serving boards and then keep serving fresh pizza all evening. It means guests get served much faster, they can try a few different flavours and they can graze at their own pace rather than having to eat a whole pizza at once.
