Pizza food truck hire in Mons
At a glance
Outside the steep core
In the cobbled lanes around the Grand-Place, manoeuvring is awkward. A square, car park or site on the edge of the centre works better.
Industrial backdrop
Old mining sites in the Borinage have wide courtyards of brick and cobbles, a striking setting for a truck with a burning wood fire.
Open days and staff parties
Around Mons there are offices and business parks. At an open day visitors arrive in waves, and the truck keeps up with that rhythm effortlessly.
Cobbles, slopes and the right pitch
The centre of Mons climbs up to the collegiate church and the belfry, with narrow cobbled streets where a food truck does not like to zigzag between parked cars. For an event in the old town we therefore prefer an open spot: a square, a spacious courtyard or a car park where the truck can stand straight.
Standing level is no luxury for a wood-fired oven. On a slope we correct what we can, but flat ground is always better for the oven and for the team working in it. Send us pictures and a rough sketch of the location beforehand, and we will decide together where the truck goes and which street is the best way in.
The Borinage as a backdrop
West of Mons lies the Borinage, the old coal-mining region with slag heaps, workers’ houses and mining sites that are heritage today. Grand-Hornu, with its large oval courtyard, is even a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Such sites are popular for company events and cultural evenings, and their broad, paved courtyards give a food truck room to spare.
Even an ordinary company site in Frameries or Saint-Ghislain quickly becomes a place where colleagues linger once the truck arrives. The wood-fired oven draws onlookers, the team bakes at pace and pizza by the slice lets everyone taste. If you expect over 150 attendees, an additional baking station joins in, and the queue stays manageable.
Permits and practical arrangements
If the truck has to stand on a public square or city car park in Mons, the city has the final say. The organiser must apply for the city’s permit to use public space; we attach our technical sheet, with the truck’s dimensions and an explanation of the wood fire. On your own company site or a private estate, none of that applies.
We drive in well ahead, giving ourselves ninety minutes before the first order to light the fire and lay out the dough. Water, refrigeration and worktops are in the truck, so we ask little of the location beyond a solid pitch. When the baking ends, two hours or a little more after it began, we leave everything neat.
Mathieu en Chloe, een supersympathiek duo, hebben van ons tuinfeest een enorm succes gemaakt. Hun pizza’s zijn overheerlijk (zuurdesem + authentieke Italiaanse ingredienten!) en de tiramisu was een perfecte afsluiter. Al onze gasten waren…
