Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of your favourite street pizza van? At Big Slice, we don’t just serve up stone-baked pizza — we bring flavour, fire, and a whole lot of hustle to every event, market, and pop-up. But running a mobile pizza van isn’t just about dough and toppings. It’s a full-blown operation that blends passion, precision, and personality.
1. The Early Starts (and Late Finishes)
The day begins long before the oven gets hot. Whether it’s prepping dough, loading stock, or checking the site setup, we’re on it before most alarms go off. Our team checks every ingredient, from our signature Big Slice sauce to hand-rolled sourdough bases, ensuring everything is fresh and ready.
After the crowds have eaten their last slice, we’re not done. Clean-down, pack-up, and the all-important restock checklist means late finishes are the norm — but we wouldn’t have it any other way.
2. Setting the Scene (Literally)
A mobile pizza van doesn’t just show up and open its hatch. We assess every location: parking, wind direction (yes, it matters when using a 500°C oven!), power sources, foot traffic, and weather conditions. At weddings or corporate events, we go the extra mile to set up lights, signage, and menu boards that fit the vibe perfectly.
Each event is different — and we love the challenge of making every one feel special.
3. The Pizza Show
Once service begins, it’s go-time. Flames roaring, dough flying, and orders flying in fast. On a busy night, we might make 100–200 pizzas in a few short hours. Timing is everything — too slow, and you’ve got queues; too fast, and quality might slip.
That’s why we handpick and train our staff to handle pressure like pros. Each team member can flip, stretch, top, and serve with flair and precision — all while having a laugh with the customers.
4. Rain or Shine, We Serve
British weather? No problem. Whether it’s wind, rain, or blazing sun, the Big Slice van keeps on baking. Our mobile setup is designed to handle all conditions, meaning your event goes ahead no matter what — with hot pizza in hand.
5. The People Make It
More than anything, it’s our team and our customers that make Big Slice special. From the excitement of catering a wedding to chatting with regulars at a Friday night pitch, every event brings new energy and connections.
We’re proud to be more than a food truck — we’re a slice of community, served hot.
