Bring the Pizzeria to Your Event
Looking for pizza van hire in Cheshire for a wedding, party, corporate event or special occasion? Vincent Van-Dough brings our mobile wood-fired pizzeria directly to your venue, serving freshly cooked pizza at events across Cheshire and the North West.
From our unmistakable Starry Night pizza van, every pizza is stretched, topped and cooked fresh on site in our Italian Zio Ciro oven. At around 500°C, pizzas cook in approximately 90 seconds, allowing us to keep fresh, piping-hot pizza flowing throughout your event.
Whether you’re planning an intimate celebration or feeding a much larger crowd, we’ll tailor the service to suit your event and guest numbers.
The van might catch your guests’ attention first, but it’s the pizza we want them talking about afterwards.

Authentic Neapolitan Pizza, Properly Made
Hiring a pizza van shouldn’t mean compromising on the pizza.
We make our dough using Italian flour and slowly ferment it for around 24 hours before service, helping to create the light, airy crust Neapolitan pizza is known for.
We use quality ingredients including:
Italian tomatoes
Fior di Latte mozzarella
Fresh basil
Proper Italian meats and cheeses
Homemade hot honey
Fresh chillies
Nduja
Garlic roasted toppings
Every pizza is opened by hand, topped fresh and cooked on site in our Italian Zio Ciro oven.
The result is pizza that feels lighter and fresher than many people expect from a pizza van.
Cooked at around 500°C, our pizzas are ready in approximately 90 seconds, with light, airy crusts, bubbling cheese and those little touches of char that come from cooking at intense heat.
And because everything is cooked right in front of your guests, the oven becomes part of the experience too — pizzas being stretched and topped, flames rolling across the oven and fresh pizza coming out throughout service.
Being mobile changes where we cook it. It doesn’t change how seriously we take the pizza.
Pizza Van Hire for Almost Any Location
One of the advantages of hiring a mobile pizza van is that we can bring the pizzeria to places where traditional catering isn’t always practical.
We’ve set up at everything from wedding venues and private parties to business premises and outdoor events. As long as we have suitable vehicle access and a safe, reasonably level space to operate, there’s a good chance we can make it work.
Office Car Parks
Private Driveways
Fields & Farms
Wedding Venues
Business Premises
Sports & Community Venues
And the best bit? We’re completely self-sufficient. We don’t need access to your electricity or water supply, and we don’t need a generator humming away in the background. Everything we need comes with us, which means we can set up in some pretty remote locations if that’s where your event takes us.
Not sure whether your location will work? Tell us where you’re planning your event and we’ll happily take a look.
How Our Pizza Van Hire Service Works
Speed and quality are the two things we care about most. Our carefully tailored menu helps us deliver great pizza at serious speed, without compromising on either.
We normally arrive around 2–3 hours before service, giving us plenty of time to position the van, fire up the oven and prepare everything fresh on site before your guests are ready to eat.
Once service begins, we want to get pizza into people’s hands quickly. Nobody wants to spend an event standing in a queue waiting for their individual pizza to be made.
That’s why, for larger gatherings, we serve our pizzas by the slice.
Fresh pizzas come continuously from the oven, they’re sliced and served, and guests simply grab a plate and take a couple of slices. Once everyone has had their first taste, they can keep coming back for more throughout the 2-hour service.
It’s a simple system that allows us to feed a large gathering in minutes rather than hours.
If we tried to make an individual pizza for every guest at a 100-person event, the first person could be eating long before the last person had even been served. Our system means we can get that initial rush of guests fed quickly, then simply keep the fresh pizza coming as people return for another slice, try a different topping or go back for their favourite.
Nobody has to decide on one pizza, nobody needs to stand around waiting for an individual order, and there’s no expectation that everyone has to eat a whole pizza in one go.
Everyone gets fed quickly. Everyone gets full gradually.

Pizza Van Hire FAQs
How much does it cost to hire the pizza van?
Our catered events start from a minimum booking of £500, which covers up to 50 guests. Larger events are generally priced according to guest numbers, location and the requirements of your event.
Get in touch with your date, location and approximate guest numbers and we’ll put together a clear quotation.
Can you cater for dietary requirements?
Yes. We can cater for a range of dietary requirements, including vegetarian, vegan and dairy-free options.
Gluten-free bases are also available by prior arrangement, although because we work extensively with flour containing gluten, we cannot safely cater for people with coeliac disease.
If you have guests with specific dietary requirements, let us know when booking and we’ll talk through the options with you.
What happens if it rains?
A bit of rain won’t stop us cooking. Our pizza van is set up so we can continue preparing and cooking your pizzas in wet weather.
If the weather is so bad that your guests don’t want to come outside to the van, we’ll simply change the way we serve.
We’ll cook several pizzas at a time, box and slice them, then bring them inside to wherever your guests are gathered. We’ll keep doing this throughout the service, bringing in fresh, piping-hot pizzas until everyone’s had enough.
It might mean missing out on some of the theatre of watching the pizzas being cooked and the flames in the oven, which we’d always prefer your guests to experience, but the important bit doesn’t change:
We’ll keep cooking. We’ll bring the pizza to you. And everyone still gets fed.
