Big Green Truck Pizza 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
New Haven, CT
  • Starts at $1,300

Welcome to Big Green Truck Pizza! For more than 20 years, we have delighted customers all over Connecticut with delicious pizza served in an attractive, fun atmosphere. Our specially outfitted trucks are genuine antiques equipped with wood-fired brick ovens, tables, and all the ingredients needed to bring a buffet of New Haven pizza to your backyard. We pride ourselves on the quality, variety, and convenience of our pizza, and specialize in bringing a fun, professional atmosphere to every occasion.

We had a great time working with the folks at Big Green Truck Pizza for our June 2025 wedding! We had about 90 guests with a variety of dietary needs, and the BGT team was very accommodating and helpful. It was very hot that day, but the team was so kind and understanding. Pizza was delicious, salad was fresh, and the gelato was such a treat (I particularly loved the blood orange one). Sad that Next Door (their brick & mortar restaurant) is closed, but so happy that people can still enjoy their lovely food. Thank you, BGT! Photo credit: Ken Yotsukura

Old World Pizza Truck 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
New Haven, CT
  • Starts at $2,000

We started Old World Pizza Truck with our beloved old '42 Chevy, built and designed with a passion for entertaining and food in mind. Our fleet consists of four international diesel trucks, ready to serve both local and long range parties all across Connecticut, parts of New York, and Massachusetts. All trucks have basically the same equipment including powerful sound systems for those of you that like music at your affairs. They all are self sufficient with onboard generators, coolers, freezers and running water. No matter which truck is sent, the total experience is the same- great food, great music, lots of fun and unsurpassed service!

The amount of compliments I have received on the food at my wedding is too many to count! My only complaint is that I didn’t get to try more pizzas! We booked Old World Pizza Truck for dinner service and cocktail hour charcuterie and boy did they deliver. Even the skeptics (“pizza at your wedding?!”) came back to tell us what a phenomenal and unique meal it was. To quote one of my guests, “That pizza truck was genius. Did I tell you that the dessert pizza with peanut butter, jelly and bacon made my list of best things I’ve ever eaten that sounds completely disgusting?” Would book 10x over. Better than a 150 mediocre plated dinner by a mile.

As a wedding planner of nearly 10 years, I've worked with many caterers in Connecticut and beyond. When I first started working with Spice Catering Group, I was blown away by their efficiency and planning insight during the planning process, but was even more impressed with their food on the wedding day! Spice became one of my top two preferred caterers when recommending vendors to my clients, because I know that they will not only make the planning process easier, but they'll also deliver quality food and a wonderful guest experience for my couples. Plus they do all of this at a better price point than many of their competitors! (Trust me, I've gotten quotes from nearly every caterer in the state!). I've worked with SCG on many different projects over the years in a variety of settings - venues, museums, parks, private homes, etc. I've even had food dropped off for my family's personal events when I didn't want to cook. I've never been disappointed and will always rave about their food and service. If you're looking for a caterer who will work with you to create a unique menu, will come to any venue you choose, and will still deliver an amazing culinary experience then you HAVE to work with Spice Catering Group!

We could not recommend Emily's Catering Group more! Our wedding was August 25, 2018 at South Farms in Morris, CT. People say the food at your wedding is one of the most important and memorial parts of your day and it's true! People are still raving about the food they had at our wedding till this day and the fantastic service by the ECG's team! From the very first point of contact Rick and his team were extremely attentive. Cheryl would answer our emails within 24 hours (which for a bride planning a wedding is SO impressive!) The tasting we had was intimate and Rick walked us through the process of what our guests experience would be like the day of our wedding. The passed hors d'oeuvres were never ending during cocktail hour-- our guests we're SO impressed and FULL of delicious tasting food they were wondering how they would be able to eat during dinner. Rick and his team brought my charcuterie table dreams come to life! There was specific staff members from the ECG's team that were in charge of basically following us around during our event to make sure we had all the food we ever wanted and a drink was always full in our hands. It was so refreshing to feel so well taken care of on our special day. We are so happy we chose Emily's Catering Group for our wedding day and we continue to use them to cater all of our events.

The Crafted Cook

  • Serves New Haven, CT

I’ve gained passion for crafting up a sharp cheese board and catching some sunshine! I grew up in a family where food was plentiful, the focal point of any gathering or celebration and knowing you would never leave hungry. My passion for food and the culture behind it began when I was 6, working in my family’s deli, and that’s when I learned why food was a necessity to a gathering, celebration or corporate event (no matter the guest count). Customers faces gleamed when they knew eggplant parm was a special, or could walk in and smell a fresh pot of sauce was being made. It's now my passion for my clients to be gleaming too.

The Crafted Cook is an exceptional catering choice for our wedding. From the start, owner Kaitlyn's communication was quick, effective and supportive, making the planning process seamless. On the day of, their team's artistic presentation and exceptional food quality was clear - the dishes had a supple, delightful flavor profile that delighted our guests. Kaitlyn was amazing and respectful throughout, and truly provided great value for our budget. We are so grateful to the Crafted Cook team for contributing to making our special day perfect.
