450 Degrees

Hey there! I’m Lorenzo Ottaviani, a passionate pizza chef who’s spent years mastering the craft of true Neapolitan pizza, training in world-renowned pizzerias like 50 Kalò. I started 450 Degrees to bring the magic of wood-fired, handcrafted pizza to events all over London and beyond. Over the past few years, we’ve catered hundreds of events, serving everyone from corporate giants like Red Bull, Amazon, and Bloomberg to breathtaking wedding venues like Notley Abbey and Cliveden House. We’ve even been trusted by Chelsea FC and Arsenal FC to bring authentic Italian flavors to their teams and fans. But here’s what really makes us different: we don’t just serve pizza, we create an experience. Our mobile wood-fired oven, running at 450°C, allows us to cook pizzas in just 90 seconds, right in front of your guests. The flames, the aroma, the craft, it's all part of the show. Whether it’s a wedding, corporate event, festival, or private party, we bring an energy that makes your event unforgettable. What Sets Us Apart? ✅ Authenticity First – Hand-stretched dough, 72-hour fermentation, San Marzano tomatoes, and fior di latte mozzarella. ✅ Speed & Efficiency – We serve up to 100 pizzas per hour, so your guests are never waiting long. ✅ Tailored Menus – A mix of crowd-favorite pizzas, starters, desserts, and drinks to suit your event. ✅ Dietary Requirements? No Problem. We cater to vegan, vegetarian, nut-free, dairy-free, gluten-free (for intolerance), and halal requests. ✅ Complimentary Tasting Before Booking – Try our pizzas before you decide, either at our Hackney prep kitchen or one of our event locations. ✅ 100% Money-Back Guarantee – We stand by our service. If you're not happy, you get the refund, simple as that. Want to take it up a notch? Try our Pizza-Making Experience!
