OUR STORY
How we started
A deep and lasting interest in baking was inspired by a traditional grandmother who seemed to conjure up the most delightful treats without written recipes. Many years later this passion for artisan baking became a quest to bake a great loaf of rye bread. The art, science, and genuine magic of baking truly grabbed us and led to a pursuit of breads and pizzas with more complex flavors and sourdough cultures. An interest in wood fired ovens was a natural progression of our passion for the best pizza. We started Pizza By Fire so that we could bring our passion for the best artisan wood fired pizza to you for your special events.
We make our own dough and source the highest quality ingredients from local and domestic farms and producers. We continually strive to refine our menu to include foods that complement our pizza and benefit from the use of our wood fired oven. We are based in Portland and serve much of the state including the lakes region and the mid and southern coasts. We specialize in catering for private parties such as weddings, rehearsals, and corporate events as well as vending at festivals, farmers markets, and others.
Pizza By Fire, a division of Maine Baking Company LLC, was established in 2011. We have some interesting ideas for the future so please do check back in with us from time to time or like us on Facebook or Instagram for updates.

Hi Andrew, three weeks out and we still find ourselves discussing daily what reasons we can come up with to have you back at our house to cater another party. You and your team are so easy to be around AND... the pizza is to die for! Many people have sent us notes about the wedding weekend. All who were with us on Thursday night give you rave reviews. Many thanks for the perfect kickoff to our big family weekend.
Best, Sue and Al
Giordano and I have been meaning to send you a message thanking you for catering our wedding. When I think back about the wedding day, the pizza really stands out to me. It was SO delicious! I really love pizza, so maybe I'm biased, but it was definitely the best food I've ever had at a wedding! Many of our guests came up to us to tell us what a great choice we had made and how much they had enjoyed the food. We really appreciate you making the trek from Portland, and the day would not have been as perfect without Pizza by Fire as a part of it.
My mom and I are already plotting how we can get back to Portland to eat some more. :)
Thanks again,Luisa and Giordano
Just wanted to drop you a note to thank you again for this weekend. You and your staff were a great addition to the wedding and really provided a fun and delicious alternative to more traditional catering options. The appetizers and pizzas were of the highest quality and you truly offered something for everyone. Your willingness to speak with our guests and demonstrate your oven and cooking techniques while quickly and efficiently producing food for over one hundred people was both impressive and appreciated. We received nothing but very positive feedback from our friends and families on not only the delicious offerings coming out of the oven but also on the entertaining nature of your business. Thanks again!

The Morrone/Morency families would like to thank you for creating some of the most delicious pizza we have ever eaten. Andrew catered our son's rehearsal dinner in the beautiful town of Newry at the gorgeous Ski-esta at the top of the mountain. So, now that we had the location we needed the food to live up to it. From the caprese skewers to the fresh salad to the most amazing pizza everything was outstanding. Even though we added 10 guests just 4 hours prior to the event Andrew handled it in a professional manner.
Thank you, Bruce and Diane Morrone
We wanted to thank you sooooo much for your services this past Saturday for our wedding. I want to apologize for not thanking you in person but we had our hands tide more than we imagined we would be. Every one of guests gave us rave reviews of your pizzas and appetizers. Alondra and Katherine told us how well you were able to work with them to make our wedding such an incredible and memorable event. If there is a prefered website reviewer please let us know so that we can leave a detailed and positive review. Thank you so much!
John and Mystyna Shappy
The feedback was awesome. Everyone loved the pizza, the apps, and the whole set up. All in all, very satisfied, thank you.
Look forward to seeing you guys again some time. Will keep your info handy for any prospective brides.
Cheers,
Matt
We never got the chance to say thank you for SUCH an amazing dinner the Friday night before our wedding-- we had the BEST time, and our guests did too. Everyone absolutely raved about the pizza (and the pizza wrapped hot dogs-- those were a HIT!). I also wanted to let you know that I've recommended to Drew, the owner of the camp, that he put you on the preferred vendor list.
Are there any online reviews you would like us to write to help you out?
Thanks again!!
Best,
Deidre & Pete
