Devon Woodfired pizzas

Steve and Jamie of Devon Woodfired pizzas based near Crediton approached us in 2013 to help set up their new wagon with a wood-fired pizza oven. See their Facebook page here. and website here

Given the space limitations in a van, we suggested they use our Four Grand-Mere F1030CC+ with the unique steel strap system for fixing down to the table they were getting made when fitting out the van.

The oven has a low size to weight ratio meaning they could get a large oven installed with minimal load but still have enough mass to keep the oven hot overnight. The 1030 has half the mass of our standard ovens with a 40mm thick dome instead of 80mm and 60mm hearth instead of 80mm.

With the supplied insulation, the oven is faster to heat up and uses less fuel, a feature that mobile caterers really appreciate when setting up on site. For a specification on this oven see our commercial oven list and scroll down to Le Grand Flamme.

The 1030 is our most popular oven for mobile caterers but if you’ve got the space we have a larger lightweight version, the 1200L that has the same strap system.

The F1030 has served them well over the years and is still going strong nearly 7 years down the line. Our ovens are made to last and if you treat them well, should keep going with very little maintenance for several generations.

Other mobile caterers/outlets using this oven include-

Leather and Willow

The Wild Oven 

The Rustic Crust

Goats Gruff Dublin

Coke Lane Pizza Dublin

The George Evelyn pub

“Our specially converted van offers delicious Neapolitan style pizzas made to order and cooked in a wood-fired oven. We visit towns and villages in the Mid-Devon area. We can also be booked to provide pizzas at parties, weddings, events and festivals. Please contact us  to find out more.

The pizzas are created, generously topped and cooked in front of your eyes in the intense heat of our specialist oven in about 3 minutes. The fast cooking provided by natural flames makes for a fantastic tasting, perfectly cooked topping and a base with just the right combination of softness and crunch.

We provide a range of toppings including traditional Italian style pizzas we all know and love through to new and delicious combinations unique to Devon Woodfired Pizzas, some with a particularly English and Devonian twist. To achieve this we like to source local ingredients for our toppings where we can. Take a look at our menu to see what we offer!

We hold a 5 star rating under the Food Standards Agency food hygiene scheme.”

Had One of the best pizzas we have had in a long time this evening from Devon Wood Fired Pizzas in Witheridge.
Thank you Anita-Clare La-Petite Bouchée for recommending them, they are as good as you said they were. — at Witheridge, Devon


My wife and I have had several vegan pizzas from the van in Witheridge on Wednesday evenings. Devon Woodfired Pizzas understand vegan requirements and are happy to make pizzas tailored to your wishes. Not only that – they’re delicious!


I moved from London 3 weeks ago and one of the things have at the end of a tiring day is the luxury of ordering a takeaway. Then I was told about Devon Woodfired Pizza and went to order some. Oh boy and I really mean this. This is the best pizza I have tasted outside of Rome. The base is thin and so unbelievably crispy, the sauce fabulous and my American Hot tonight has not dissappointed. Who knew I had to move 201 miles to get a decent pizza, I count my lucky stars every Wednesday that I have !
PS Why is there no review page … ? here are my 5 *****
PPS See you next Wednesday !
