About Pizza Al Forno

Hi, my name is Richard, and I am the owner of Pizza Al Forno, a mobile wood-fired pizza business based in Staffordshire.

We use only fresh, high-quality ingredients to serve classic Neapolitan favourites alongside a selection of innovative and exciting new flavour combinations.

Our custom-built mobile kitchen—equipped with a full-sized wood-fired oven—is compact enough to fit into most venues, allowing us to prepare and cook authentic pizzas on site and serve them to your guests piping hot.

Tell us about your plans and we will be delighted to tailor our service to your event.

We offer two serving options:

• Whole Pizza Service Individual pizzas are freshly cooked and served in pizza boxes for your guests to enjoy.

• Buffet-Style Service Freshly baked pizzas are sliced and displayed for guests to help themselves. We provide disposable plates and napkins.

If you’re planning a wedding, party, or corporate event and want authentic wood-fired pizza served with professionalism and care, we’d love to hear from you.

Our Story

Our journey with Pizza Al Forno began in 2017, but the idea had been simmering long before then. As a husband-and-wife team, both of us — Richard and Kim — have always shared a love for good food, great hospitality, and the simple joy of bringing people together. We believed that food should be an experience, not just a meal, and we were particularly inspired by the authenticity and theatre of traditional Neapolitan wood-fired pizza.

Before starting the business, we had both spent years working in customer-focused roles, learning what it means to deliver reliable, friendly, high-quality service. Combined with our passion for cooking and the Italian food culture we admired, the next step felt natural: create something of our own that allowed us to share that passion with others.

We built Pizza Al Forno from the ground up — literally — designing our mobile wood-fired kitchen and perfecting our dough, techniques, and flavour combinations through countless hours of practice. What inspires us most today is the same thing that inspired us at the beginning: seeing people enjoy fresh, authentic pizza made right in front of them, and helping to make their event memorable.

Whether it’s a wedding, party, or corporate gathering, we take pride in bringing a warm, personal touch to every occasion. Our mission is simple: to serve incredible wood-fired pizza with genuine hospitality, and to treat every event as if it were our own.

Experience

We founded Pizza Al Forno in 2017, and since then we have catered for hundreds of weddings, parties, and private or corporate events across the Midlands and beyond. During the challenges of the Covid period, we adapted by offering a local pizza delivery service, allowing us to continue serving our community while keeping our team and customers safe.

We are proud to consistently hold the highest Food Hygiene Rating of 5, reflecting our commitment to exceptional standards in food preparation and safety.

Above all, we strive to ensure that every event we cater for is handled with professionalism, attention to detail, and a genuine passion for delivering outstanding food and service.

Typical Clients

Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of catering for hundreds of events, working with a wide range of clients across the Midlands and beyond. These include:

Weddings – from intimate garden ceremonies to large-scale celebrations.

Private Parties – birthdays, anniversaries, engagements, and family gatherings.

Corporate Events – staff appreciation days, product launches, open days, networking events, and team-building sessions.

Community & Public Events – festivals and village gatherings.

Holiday Celebrations – Christmas parties, summer BBQs, and seasonal events.

We work with everyone from couples planning their big day, to businesses looking to treat their staff, to families hosting celebrations at home. Each event is unique, and we pride ourselves on adapting our service to fit the occasion — whether relaxed and informal or polished and professional.

Our mission remains simple: to serve outstanding wood-fired pizza with warmth, passion, and genuine care, making every event we attend memorable for all the right reasons.

Credentials

We are proud members of NCASS (The Nationwide Caterers Association), which supports and promotes best practices within the mobile catering industry. In addition, we hold up to Level 3 Food Hygiene certificates, ensuring that our food handling, preparation, and safety standards meet the highest industry requirements.

These qualifications, combined with our consistent 5-star Food Hygiene Rating, reflect our commitment to operating safely, responsibly, and professionally at every event we cater for.

Great pizza, great price!

Richard communicated well on the run up to our wedding. There was a great menu choice. On the day service was fantastic and lots of people commented on how amazing the pizza tasted! Richard also provided gluten free and vegan options so all our guests were well fed. Not only was it fantastic, it was also for a fantastic price. 100% recommend!
