Chicago's Favorite Pizza Styles for Your Next Event

Chicago's pizza culture is legendary—and our trucks represent every style the city is known for. These are the pies that define Chicago.

Deep Dish & Chicago-Style

Chicago invented deep dish, and our pizza trucks bring that thick, buttery crust with layers of cheese and chunky tomato sauce to your event. Best Food Trucks' Chicago options roll up with ovens that crank out deep-dish in minutes. It's the pizza style that put Chicago on the culinary map.

Tavern-Style Thin Crust

True Chicagoans know tavern-style—crispy, cracker-thin crust cut into squares (party cut), not slices. This is the everyday pizza of Chicago, served at neighborhood joints for decades. Pizza trucks deliver this authentic local style that visitors often overlook.

Wood-Fired Neapolitan

Billy Bricks on Wheels brings mobile wood-fired pizza to Illinois events. Da Pizza Dude delivers authentic slices. For guests who prefer lighter, charred-crust pies, Chicago's wood-fired trucks offer the Neapolitan experience alongside local styles.

Chicago Signature Creations

Kissed By Fire's Chicago Gangsta Pizza tops smoked pork shoulder, bacon, sausage, roasted garlic, red onion, and giardiniera on their pies—a uniquely Chicago combination. Local trucks create signature pies that reflect the city's bold food culture.

Italian Beef Pizza

Only in Chicago—Italian beef and giardiniera as pizza toppings. Best Food Trucks partners with local favorites who create Chi-Town-inspired combinations. These creative pies honor Chicago's broader Italian-American food traditions.

Classic Crowd-Pleasers

From cheese and pepperoni to sausage and mushroom, Chicago trucks deliver familiar favorites done right. Five Squared Pizza and others serve classic pies with quality ingredients. Every event needs options that everyone recognizes and loves.

Best Times to Book in Chicago

Plan around Chicago's seasons for the best experience

Summer Outdoor Season (June-August)

Wood-fired pizza trucks shine at outdoor events—the aromatic smoke and visible flames create memorable experiences. Perfect for backyard parties, corporate picnics, and lakefront weddings. Book 6-8 weeks ahead.

Fall Event Season (September-November)

Ideal weather for pizza trucks as cooler temps make standing near hot ovens comfortable. Great for school events, fall festivals, and Bears tailgates. The heat from wood-fired ovens feels welcoming.

Winter Indoor Options (December-March)

Spring Pizza Season (April-May)

Outdoor events resume as Chicago warms up. Wedding season begins—late-night pizza is a hit. Great time to book before summer rush with 4-6 week lead time.
