Can we book the food truck for an event of our student club?

Certainly. Give us the date, the location and the expected number of students, and we will tune the menu for speed. If half the club turns up, we park a second baking station beside the truck and the queue stays manageable.

Is the truck allowed in Leuven’s city centre?

That is difficult, but not impossible. The centre has narrow streets and limited access for large vehicles. Together we check whether there is a suitable spot and coordinate access with the city beforehand. A spot just outside the core is often more practical.

Does the truck also work for a company event in Haasrode?

Yes, a business park with a spacious car park is ideal. The truck stands stable and clearly visible there. We agree the break times in advance, so the oven is at full strength when colleagues come outside.

What if our garden party in Heverlee gets rained out?

In the truck the oven is sheltered, so baking simply continues. A party tent next to the truck can be handy for your guests. Tell us what your garden looks like and we will find the best set-up.

Hire a pizza food truck in Leuven

Leuven is a city of students, researchers and young families, and you can tell from its parties. Our pizza food truck drives to the campus, the business park or the garden in Kessel-Lo and bakes there on its own power.

Ready for student crowds

A student club event or graduation party means a lot of people in a short time. We set up the serving accordingly and, for a large turnout, bring in a second baking station.

Outside the narrow old centre

The truck stands best on the edge: a campus car park, a business site in Haasrode or a spacious garden in Heverlee or Kessel-Lo.

Independent of the location

The truck fills up with water beforehand, has its own refrigeration and worktops and brings its own wood. A lawn without a socket or tap in Kessel-Lo is therefore no obstacle.

From student club party to research campus

Few cities have as many associations in such a small area as Leuven. Student clubs, research groups and alumni societies organise barbecues, end-of-year parties and receptions after a doctorate. A pizza food truck fits right in: informal enough for a club party and polished enough for a group of professors and their guests. Even a cantus (a traditional student singing night) can be given a solid base beforehand.

The companies around the city, too, often look for a format that brings colleagues together. At the research park in Haasrode or at an office along the ring road, the truck stands in the car park, visible from the entrance. Anyone taking a break picks up a slice of pizza and lingers for a chat. That turns an ordinary Friday into a small company celebration.

Where the truck stands best in Leuven

The historic centre, with the Oude Markt and the narrow streets around it, is not ideal for a food truck. Space is limited and access for large vehicles is regulated. We therefore prefer a spot just outside the core or on a site with its own access. If you still want to celebrate in the centre, we look together at what is feasible and coordinate access with the city.

There is more room in the outlying districts. Heverlee has many gardens and green campuses, such as around the Arenberg Castle. In Kessel-Lo and Wilsele you find roomy plots and sports grounds. The surrounding municipalities, such as Bertem, Holsbeek and Oud-Heverlee, also offer meadows and farms where the truck can park without fuss.

Practical arrangements for a smooth evening

A garden, campus or company car park involves no paperwork. It is different when you want the truck on the street, for a neighbourhood party or an open-air club event. Then, as the organiser, you submit a request to the City of Leuven to use public space, and we send along the sheet with the truck’s dimensions.

We are there ninety minutes before the first dough goes in, stoking the fire; after that the oven keeps going for two and a half hours at most. Vegetarian pizzas are always on the menu; for gluten-free or vegan students and colleagues we bake separately on request. Afterwards we take the waste with us, so nothing of the truck is left to see.

Geweldige ervaring! Helemaal van Antwerpen naar Limburg gekomen. Communicatie vooraf supervlot, heel vriendelijk koppel met een prachtige pizzabar. En de pizza’s… écht overheerlijk! Absolute aanrader!
