Oh god, dont tempt me...
I actually ran a Pizza kitchen for a few years (not my own though) so know my way about. I guess its making the jump and the initial outlay that are terrifying.
Don't suppose you know Jon Gregory? I think he was doing something coffee based over your way last not so long back.
I have so many ideas for pizza.

No I haven't heard of Jon Gregory. The sums are frightening, especially in London I imagine. Take a look at caterkwik.co.uk We put together a quote for about 30k worth of equipment for just about evrything you need to open a shop including the oven and their leasing came in at about £500/month over 5 years. That's a massive lump sum sorted out, has tax benefits too.

Northamptonshire; I'm a coffee roaster, trained at Monmouth coffee, now working locally and want to do it for myself. The idea is for an all day and evening coffee roastery / coffee bar. Pizza just makes sense as the food offer, I've done a mobile gig with a wood fired oven on the back of a Piaggio Ape and the response was overwhelming - it's so easy to make pizza 100x better than the high street places, it's very profitable and you don't need a trained chef to produce them, you'd have somebody trained in a week. Add in the takeaway sales and bar takings and it's a massive win.
