For pubs, clubs, hotels and venues in Ireland

Host a pizza machine

A pizza vending machine gives your customers hot, freshly baked pizza, day or night. We install it, stock it and look after it, and your venue gets a share of the sales.

Don't lose trade

When there's no food, customers leave to find some.

Kitchen closed?

Keep serving hot food late into the night, without reopening the kitchen.

No kitchen?

The machine needs a spot and a power supply, not a kitchen.

Customers leaving?

Stop watching rounds walk out because you can't serve food after 9pm.

How hosting works

Four steps from the first call to the first pizza. Our launch plan works out the dates for your venue.

We visit

We look at the spot with you: the space, the way in, the power supply and the internet.

We agree terms

A short agreement covers where the machine goes, who does what, and the venue's share of the sales.

We install

An electrician fits a dedicated circuit, then we deliver the machine, set it up and register it with the HSE.
