Can you set up in a town garden with no side entrance?

That depends on the width of the passage. Send us the dimensions of the narrowest point in the hallway or kitchen and a photo of the garden. If it does not work there, we look for an alternative together, such as an inner courtyard, a terrace or a spot at the front.

What does the low-emission zone mean for our party?

For you as host, little changes. The LEZ applies across Antwerp, Linkeroever included, and we build it into the planning of our journey. You give us the address and any loading arrangements, and we prepare the route.

Can the oven stand on a roof terrace?

Rarely. Weight, access by lift or stairs and smoke extraction usually make a wood-fired oven on a roof terrace unworkable. Your guests can still eat upstairs while we bake below in the courtyard or at the street side, if the location allows it.

Do you also do company parties in the port?

Yes. Port sites and business grounds generally have a level, paved surface and plenty of room, ideal for the oven. Let us know the access procedure, such as badges or an escort at the gate. For a large staff party we provide an extra baking station.

Pizza catering in Antwerp

Antwerp is not a city with one kind of party venue: a loft by the docks, a townhouse with a narrow city garden in Zurenborg, a business park in the port. Our pizza catering adapts to each of these places, with a wood-fired oven that gives the evening a natural centre.

Low-emission zone planned in

The whole city, Linkeroever included, falls inside the LEZ. We plan the approach, drop-off point and parking beforehand, so the oven is burning on time.

Also in a town garden

Behind an Antwerp townhouse the garden is often narrow and deep. With a compact setup and a photo beforehand, we find the right spot.

From district to district

Berchem, Deurne, Wilrijk, Ekeren or Linkeroever: each district has its own streetscape and access. For every address we look at how we drive in.

Townhouses, lofts and quays

Those who live in Zurenborg or on the Zuid often celebrate in the town garden behind a townhouse. These gardens are walled, narrow and reachable only through the hallway or kitchen. That calls for preparation: we measure the passage, choose a spot at the back where smoke can drift off freely and keep the tent compact. The result is intimate, with the oven as a campfire between the walls.

On the Eilandje and along the Scheldt quays are lofts and former warehouses with terraces and inner courtyards. There the focus is more on a polished reception with a view of the water. An Aperitivo of focaccia and antipasti at standing tables, followed by pizzas going round in pieces, lets guests move and talk without a fixed seating plan.

On Linkeroever and in the greener districts such as Ekeren or Wilrijk there is more space, sometimes a full garden with lawn. There we build out the Full experience, from aperitivo to dolci, and the evening is allowed to run longer. Around the Rivierenhof or Park Spoor Noord you find gardens bordering on greenery.

An Antwerp evening with Pizza à volonté

A typical Antwerp party starts late and ends late. We tune in to that: the crew arrives well ahead, fires up the oven and starts once most guests are inside. Then come rounds of six to ten varieties, from margherita to a spicy one or grilled vegetables, each cut into pieces to share at the table or while standing.

We keep an eye on speeches and surprise moments. During a toast we bake more slowly, and straight afterwards a fresh round arrives. Tiramisu and cannoli close the evening, with limoncello for those who want it. Vegetarian is always on the menu, and gluten-free or vegan pizzas are made to order, in a zone kept apart from the rest.

Practical: LEZ, the Ring and port zones

Antwerp has a low-emission zone covering the city and Linkeroever. There are also streets with restricted loading times and neighbourhoods where parking is scarce. So give us the exact address and tell us whether there is a driveway, gate or loading bay. We agree access and parking with the venue beforehand, or let you know what to arrange with the city.

Business events in the port or on an office site along the Ring have their own rules: badges, barriers, safety briefings. Send us the contact person who lets us in on the day. On such sites there is usually room for the larger four-metre tent, and for big groups a second baking station beside the first oven.
