Wood-Fired Catering for Homes Near the New Milford Border
Quick Summary: Culto Italiano caters backyard parties on the west side of Bergenfield, close to the New Milford line. We bring a wood-fired pizza truck or ready-to-serve trays to your driveway. Each pizza bakes in about 90 seconds. Catering starts at $15 per guest.
Our kitchen sits at 49 W Church St in downtown Bergenfield. The west side of town is a short drive for us. We started this business with a mobile pizza oven in 2020, so cooking in driveways and backyards is where we come from. It is still what we do best.
A backyard party on this side of town usually means a graduation, a First Communion, or a birthday that outgrew the kitchen. You handle the guests. We handle the food. Our team sets up, serves, and packs everything up when the party winds down.
Every pie starts with the same dough we serve at the restaurant. We top it with San Marzano tomatoes and fiordilatte di Napoli. We finish plates with shaved parmigiano reggiano and imported extra virgin olive oil. Nothing changes because the oven is parked in your driveway.
What we bring to west side backyards:
-
A wood-fired pizza truck that bakes each pizza in about 90 seconds
-
Trays of baked ziti, chicken parmigiana, and eggplant rollatini
-
Starters like bruschetta, meatballs, garlic knots, and fresh salads
-
Setup and cleanup, handled by our team

We've Worked With the Best People
Will the
Pizza Truck
Fit on Your Street?
This is the first question to settle for any west side booking, and we ask it before you do. Our full trailer is 24 feet long. It needs a flat spot it can reach, and it also has to pull out when service ends. Many driveways on this side of Bergenfield are single width. That is fine. We just plan the spot together before your date.
Here is how booking works:
Call or email with your date, address, and headcount.
We confirm which unit fits your space and hold your date with a deposit.
If your venue needs a certificate of insurance, ask us. We provide one.
On party day, we arrive, set up, cook, serve, and clean up.
One planning note that matters more than people expect. A 12-inch Neapolitan pizza is one serving for an adult. Hungry teenagers eat more. So we portion to your real headcount, not a flat pie count. Give us honest numbers and nobody leaves hungry.
Graduation season is the crunch. Bergenfield families throw parties on the same June weekends every year, and dates go fast. Four to six weeks of lead time is realistic for a June Saturday. Our graduation catering page covers pricing and menus for those parties in detail.
If your event is bigger than a backyard, or you want the oven as the main attraction, look at our pizza truck rental options too.
Why West Side Families Book Us
We are not driving in from another county. Our restaurant is on W Church St, and the New Milford border area is minutes from our door. Short trips mean the fiordilatte stays soft and the sauce stays hot. That is the whole point of hiring the caterer down the street.
The food is the other reason. Chef Corrado was born in Naples and learned to cook in his family pizzeria. He cooks the same food in your backyard that he cooks in ours. Guests watch the fire, smell the dough, and eat pizza that came out of the oven seconds ago. It beats a warming tray every time.
Common west side bookings:
Graduation parties in May and June
First Communions and Confirmations
Backyard birthdays and christenings
Family dinners that grew into a full party
We are a family-run Neapolitan kitchen in Bergenfield, and we treat the west side of town like our own block. Because it basically is.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you cater backyard parties near the New Milford border? Yes. The west side of Bergenfield is minutes from our kitchen at 49 W Church St. We cater backyard graduations, communions, and birthdays there with the pizza truck or with trays. Call (917) 325-5619 to check your date.
Can the pizza truck fit a single-width driveway? Often, yes, but we confirm before booking. Our full trailer is 24 feet long and needs a flat spot it can reach and leave. We talk through your driveway or street parking when you call, so there are no surprises on party day.
How far ahead should I book a June graduation party? Four to six weeks at minimum. Bergenfield graduation parties cluster on the same two June weekends, and those Saturdays book first every year. A deposit holds your date.
How much does catering cost per guest? Catering starts at $15 per guest. The price depends on your menu and headcount. Pizza truck service, trays, starters, and a mozzarella bar are all options. Call and we will price your exact party.
