Wood fired cooking is the reason Love Logs exists, and we've been delighted to see the continued rise of professional fire cooking across the UK.
Supplying cooking wood for restaurants was a natural evolution for us, and we now offer the biggest range of kiln-dried British cooking wood available in the UK.
While our customers love our sustainability credentials, the quality of our products and the consistency of our delivery performance are what typically make them keep coming back.
Restaurants need cooking wood that's delivered on time, every time, and performs the same every time they light it.
Below are some of the restaurants and caterers fuelled by Love Logs... we think you'll agree they're all amazing!
Plates, Shoreditch
Plates was born from a lifelong fascination with food, a deep appreciation of nature, flavour and a passion for sustainable craft.
Inspired by his very personal journey in food and galvanised by his pursuit back to health, Kirk Haworth leads the kitchen with unparalleled passion and vision for a more balanced food landscape.
With a focus on sustainability for people and the planet, Kirk has become a leading figure in British plant-based cookery with a vision for revolutionising the genre.
Plates became the first plant-based restaurant in the UK to win a Michelin Star, less than 18 months after opening their doors.
"I’ve been using Love Logs charcoal and wood every day since I opened my restaurant and it really is fantastic. The flavour it gives our food is something special and the fact that’s it’s sourced in England and is highly sustainable just aligns to everything that we do. Grateful that this company exists."
Kirk Haworth, Chef Founder
Blackfriars, Newcastle
Blackfriars is set within a 13th-century former Dominican friary. Established in 1239, over the years Blackfriars has expanded from the friar’s refectory dining room to almost all the remaining claustral out-buildings and today boasts a Banquet Hall, Parlour Bar, Cookery School and Tasting Room.
Chris Wardale oversees all menus and catering operations for Blackfriars. Chris loves taking wholesome North East food and updating it with a new twist, often supplementing with foraged ingredients.
Blackfriars runs barbecue events all through the spring & summer, using fire to unlock even more flavour from wonderful local produce.
"Blackfriars has been using Love Logs' charcoal for many years now, and it consistently delivers excellent results with even heat distribution and a clean, smoky flavour. Their reliable service and high-quality product have made them an invaluable partner for our cloister garden BBQs and Hog Roasts. We love taking it with us on foraging days and doing some refined outdoor cooking, producing the best results from our local Northumbrian spoils"
Chris Wardale, Executive Chef
Soul Dough, Somerset
Soul Dough was born from Edd's passion for all things dough based, kick ass trucks, wood fired cooking and making people happy through the love of quality wood fired pizza.
Their dough is all made in house and every single pizza is hand stretched, with a focus on sourcing ingredients from local producers.
With one look at their EPIC converted Land Rover Defender with Dragon oven, you know it's going to be a serious pizza!
Edd's a busy guy, running pop-ups, weddings and a permanent residency at the wonderful Pelican, a 400-year-old pub in the heart of Chew Magna, Somerset.
“I do love Love Logs! They are perfect to use across my kitchen & mobile pizza operations. Super reliable, consistent burning and maximum heat output. I can get away with using half the amount of logs as they burn so well and last longer than my previous supplier. Definitely the best logs I have ever used!”
Edd Martin, Owner & Pizzaiolo
Salsa Rose, London
A female led, East London based events and catering company offering a one stop shop for incredible food, delicious drinks, fantastic service, full planning support and event design.
Salsa Rose cater for everything including wedding feasts, luxurious canapé & cocktail parties and delicious corporate lunches.
"Fireboy" is their asado catering offering. From flatbreads to smoked fish to whole asado lamb, Salsa Rose can create a feast over fire to feed a crowd. A favourite at weddings and outdoor events, fireboy brings a bit of theatre and excitement to your dining experience.
Based in London and with limited space for storage of bulk wood, the convenience of our boxed offering suits them perfectly.
"Cooking over fire is a core part of Salsa Rose’s roots and we value the logs we use as much as we do the produce. We’ve been using Love Logs for the last two years and the difference in flavour is amazing. We can’t wait to work more closely with their team over the coming years."
Lissy Tate, Head Chef
Pizza 51, Knighton
Morgan Davies exploded on to the pizza scene in 2023, taking second place in our competition, The UK's Best Home Pizza Chef.
Following the competition Morgan wasted no time launching a permanent residency at The Golden Lion, a family-run, independent pub.
Hand-stretching his 24-hour Neapolitan dough, Morgan offers either classic pizzas with quality ingredients, or more unusual and bold flavours.
"When I launched Pizza 51, I hadn’t realised how much the right wood - properly seasoned and prepped for a pizza oven - matters. I bounced from one supplier to another, constantly dealing with inconsistent burns and wasting money on pizza briquettes just trying to keep the fire steady. Then I found Love Logs. Yes, they’re a bit more expensive, but the consistency and reliability of their wood has actually saved me money in the long run. More importantly, it’s taken my pizza game to the next level. With a more stable, controlled heat, the oven performs better - and the pizzas benefit. Highly recommend them to anyone serious about wood-fired cooking."
Morgan Davies, Owner & Pizzaiolo
