Meanwood Pizza Co. started in a Leeds back garden during the 2020 lockdown. Mark’s obsession with proper Neapolitan pizza quickly turned into a queue of friends, family and one or two very surprised delivery drivers who arrived with a parcel and left with a 12″ Margherita.
By late 2021 the demand for “more of that pizza please!” was loud enough to make it official. Today we’re a proudly independent Neapolitan pizza business serving weddings, parties and events across Yorkshire and the wider North of England.
We use 00 flour, San Marzano DOP tomatoes, Fior di latte mozzarella and other ingredients imported from Italy. The dough is slow-fermented for a light, airy crust, and every pizza is fired to order. Meanwood is our home. You’ll catch us regularly at Meanwood Market and Horsforth Brewery between events.
We cater weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, corporate events, launches, festivals and community gatherings across Yorkshire and the North of England.
Barn weddings, marquee weddings, festival weddings, woodland ceremonies, back-garden parties. We’ve done all of them.
For outdoor events our setup includes a gazebo, fairy lights and a personalised sign. We can come inside too if the space allows. Pizza buffets work well for big groups, or we can put together a bespoke menu for your day. Everything on our menu can be made vegan on request.

“Mark was absolutely amazing. The pizzas were incredible and a huge hit with our guests. He was able to cater for all allergies, including my wife who is coeliac. She said his gluten-free pizza was one of the best she’s ever had. We would highly recommend Meanwood Pizza to anyone looking for truly incredible pizza.”
“Mark and the team were absolutely fantastic at our wedding. We got married at Left Bank in Leeds and they were communicative and flexible from the start, exceptional with our four coeliac guests, slung out 70+ customised pizzas as a slice bar, and brought the vibes. Stand out team.”
“We booked Meanwood Pizza for our wedding at the Chilli Barn and it was an absolute pleasure having Mark provide our evening food. The whole process from start to finish was completely stress free and the pizzas were devoured by our guests. If we get divorced and re-married we would absolutely have Meanwood Pizza again.”
“Meanwood Pizza catered for our evening wedding guests and from the get-go understood the laid-back, intimate vibe we were aiming for. Every single guest raved about the scrumptious pizza and the wonderful service. We couldn’t recommend them enough for an affordable, unique, casual and absolutely delicious wedding dining experience.”
“We booked Meanwood Pizza Co to cater a 40th birthday at Horsforth Brewery. A seamless process to book and organise, Mark was super helpful the whole way through, and they catered for our gluten-free / dairy-free guests super well too.”
“They came, they set up, they didn’t need a single thing from us, they fed our guests top quality pizzas, they left without leaving a trace on the patio where they’d set up. We couldn’t have asked for more! Highly recommended, great value, top service and quality food.”
Everything you need to know about pizza catering for your wedding, party or event.
Every event is quoted individually rather than from a fixed price list, so you only pay for what suits your day. We base quotes on the number of 12″ pizzas rather than a per-head charge, which keeps things flexible for smaller parties and larger weddings alike. Prices are fully inclusive of travel, setup, waste removal and all consumables (plates, napkins and so on), and a minimum spend applies to private bookings. Tell us your date, rough guest numbers and venue and we’ll send a tailored quote within 24 hours.
For evening food we usually plan around three-quarters of a 12″ pizza per guest, which works really well in practice. We make the pizzas fresh, slice them into quarters and serve them as a slice bar over a two-hour serving slot — and anything left over is boxed up for you to enjoy later.
We’re based in Meanwood, Leeds, and regularly cater weddings and events right across Yorkshire — including Harrogate, York, Wetherby, Skipton, Ilkley, Wakefield and Sheffield — as well as the wider North of England. Travel within Yorkshire is included in our quotes; for venues further afield just ask and we’ll confirm.
Yes, and at no extra charge. Everything on our menu can be made vegan on request, and we’re very experienced with coeliac and allergy guests, taking real care to avoid cross-contamination. Just let us know your requirements when you enquire.
Weddings of every kind — including LGBTQ+, alternative, DIY, marquee and outdoor weddings — plus birthdays, anniversaries, private parties, corporate events, launches, festivals and community gatherings across Yorkshire and the North of England.
We arrive, set up and are self-sufficient on the day. For outdoor events our setup includes a gazebo, fairy lights and a personalised sign, and we can come inside too if the space allows. We serve fresh pizzas throughout a two-hour slot. We just need a bit of level space for the setup and somewhere to unload nearby.
To secure your date we take a 20% deposit, with the balance due one month before your event. The best place to start is the enquiry form below (or message us on WhatsApp) with your date, venue and rough numbers.
Summer weekends and popular wedding dates book up months in advance, so it’s worth getting in touch as early as you can. That said, it’s always worth asking about shorter-notice dates — we’ll let you know availability within 24 hours.
Drop us a few details and we’ll come back within 24 hours with availability and a quote. No pushy follow-ups.

We’re a recommended caterer at some of Yorkshire’s best independent venues.
