Booking basics

Pizza caterers book by the date, not the walk-in — popular Saturdays (especially May–October) go months out, so inquire early with your date, venue, guest count, and whether you want full catering or an oven drop-off. Most will hold a date with a deposit and a signed agreement.

A directory can't see anyone's calendar — availability, travel fees, and minimums always come from the caterer directly.

From the reviews

Our first time. We had planned to eat in the restaurant. However the only seats available were drenched in sunlight on a hot July day. I'm not sure why they haven't added blinds or reorganized the tables so they can all be used during sunny summer days. We ordered a Margarita and a meat lovers pizza.

Opening a pizza shop in Ambridge takes balls. You'll be competing with two of the most long lasting and notable pizza in the whole Pittsburgh area, both less than a mile away. Of course I'm talking about Franks & Police Station. Anyway the pizza at black dog was very good. I love a wood fired style pie.

★★★★★ — Jessica via Google, Nov 2025

Wow! Wow! Wow! How did I live without knowing about this place!?!?! The pizza tastes like the pizza in Italy. Extraordinary! I love tiramisu and order it everywhere we go. This is THE best, no competition. The gelato is incredible! I can't wait to Come back. This is worth the drive if you're not from the area.

I had a great meal last night. I’d brag about how great it is. And I’m so happy MY Ambridge is thriving but instead I have to pause to say the employees ruined it by mopping the floor and putting the chairs up 30 mins before closing. We wanted to look at the merch but the floor was wet and I couldn’t walk over there.

Booking Black Dog Wood Fired for a wedding

Weddings come up for Black Dog Wood Fired — confirmed on their own site, so they'll know the rhythm of the day: everyone gets hungry at once after the ceremony, then the oven settles into a steady flow of pies until the dance floor takes over. Two numbers get your quote right. First, the pizza math: caterers typically plan on roughly one 12-inch pizza for every two to three adults, and per-person packages usually already bake that in — just be honest about your headcount, including kids and vendors. Second, the serving rate: a mobile oven cooks pies a couple at a time, so ask how many ovens and cooks they bring at your guest count and how long full service takes — that's the difference between a steady buffet and a hungry line during toasts. If anyone at the table is gluten-free or vegan, say so at the first email so the right dough travels with them.

Corporate events with Black Dog Wood Fired

Reviews and the caterer's own materials mention corporate events at Black Dog Wood Fired — office lunches, holiday parties, launches, client appreciation days. For office events, three things are worth settling on the first call: whether they carry the liability insurance your building or venue requires (and can add it as additional insured), how they handle dietary counts — gluten-free and vegan orders multiply fast on an office RSVP — and how invoicing works if your company needs a W-9 and net-30 terms.
