Dewey's Pizza — Catering and Groups
Pizza catering and group dining, planned right
Office lunches, birthdays and team dinners all come down to one question: how many pies to order. Deweys pizza makes it simple with thin crust cut for sharing.

Made-to-order pies, packed for a crowd
Catering at Dewey's Pizza means a set of made-to-order pies plus supporting items for pickup or delivery, rather than a single table ordering off the menu. The thin crust travels well and scales predictably, so you can cover mixed appetites without ordering a dozen different things.
Pies first
Thin pies are cut in squares for sharing, so they hold up better than a heavy pan pizza on a buffet line and let people eat standing up.
Round it out
Salads and starters give the group more than pizza to choose from, which matters for office lunches and team events with light eaters.
Good fit
Office lunches, team events, birthday parties and family gatherings where people arrive at different times and graze.
Portion guidance
How many pies for your group
The rule that works most often is two to three slices per adult for a full meal, then one extra pie as a buffer. A group of twenty adults lands around seven to eight large pies with that math, plus salads if pizza is the only food.
Full meal
Two to three slices per adult
Add one spare pie. Groups with several light eaters can shift toward salads and starters instead of adding pies nobody finishes.
Grazing event
Cut the count by a quarter
If the event is short or people are snacking between activities, order lighter and keep a salad on the table for balance.
Why squares work
Small squares let guests take a little or a lot, so mixed tables waste less and share more easily.
Crowd ordering
Choosing a menu for a crowd
Crowd orders work best with a mix rather than one pie repeated. One or two specialty pies cover people who want a known combination, and a build-your-own path covers picky eaters and topping restrictions.
Known favorites
Start with specialty pies
Pick one cheese-forward pie and one with vegetables or meat so the center of the table feels familiar. If the group leans vegetarian, weight the order that way instead of adding one token vegetable pie.

Add a build-your-own option
A plain cheese pie plus one customizable pie handles kids, plain eaters, and anyone skipping a topping. It is the reliable fallback when you are unsure what the group eats.

Salad and starter on arrival
Add a salad for lighter plates and a starter for the first few minutes while people arrive. That pairing keeps early guests fed before the boxes open.
Ask about group diningWeekday timing
Office lunches and weekday timing
Weekday office pizza catering lives or dies on timing. A lunch order needs to land before the meeting, not during it, so schedule pickup or delivery earlier than you think you need it.
Plan an office lunch
Order for mid-morning handoff. The kitchen is calmer than the noon rush, so pickup runs more predictably.
Confirm headcount the day before. Office orders tend to grow by a few people between planning and the event.
Give a firm time and address for delivery, not an approximate window, so drivers can stage the drop.
At home, carryout often keeps party timing simpler — you set the table when guests are ready.
Parties and mixed tables
Parties, birthdays, and family gatherings
Party orders have more variables: kids who only eat plain cheese, adults who want something bolder, and a start time that slips. Order a base of plain and specialty pies plus one or two more adventurous options to cover that spread. For anything past twenty people, call the restaurant and let the team help with quantities.
Dietary needs and mixed tables
Mixed tables are the norm. Build-your-own pies let you leave a topping off, a plain cheese pie is the fallback, and salads give anyone avoiding a heavy meal a real option. Tell the restaurant about serious restrictions when you book so the kitchen can plan ahead.
Booking steps and lead time
Start by calling the location you want or sending the request through our contact page. Larger orders need more notice than a single table, and weekends fill first, so earlier is better.
What details should I have ready?
Give the date, the time you need the food, the headcount, and whether you want pickup or delivery. Once the order is set, confirm the final count a day ahead and the restaurant handles the rest.
How far ahead should I book?
Weekday office lunches can often be arranged with a day or two of notice. Parties over twenty and weekend dates need more lead time because the ovens and drivers are already committed.
Can I split pickup and delivery?
Yes. Many groups pick up the pies and add salads or starters for delivery, or the reverse. Ask the location what keeps your timing tightest for 1312 Vine St and nearby offices.
Pickup, delivery, and setup
Pickup keeps costs and timing simple: you collect the order and set up where you eat. Delivery is worth arranging when no one can leave the venue, with a confirmed address and window.
- Ask for pies to be staged and labeled so guests can tell the vegetarian option from the rest.
- Keep boxes closed until serving time so the thin crust stays crisp on the buffet.
- Share the venue contact: 1312 Vine St, Cincinnati, OH 45202, Mon–Sun 11:00 AM – 10:00 PM.
