How our funeral wake catering works in Belmont
Roast pork with salads, new potatoes and coleslaw makes a proper meal. Chicken, halloumi skewers and a vegan option are there for anyone who doesn’t eat pork. We serve apple sauce, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers, and we are regularly asked to cater remembrance gatherings and gatherings after a cremation.
For a wake in Belmont, a hall or club with a yard or garden is frequently simplest, though home can work with a garden and side access. Your quote spells out what’s included: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates.

What the cooking area needs
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A contact for the day who isn’t immediate family
- Space inside for guests
As a London location, Belmont is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

Questions from Belmont
What’s the nearest station to Belmont?
The closest is Harrow & Wealdstone station, roughly 0.9 miles away.
Could you cook in Canons Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, generally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
Do you cover Belmont?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, Belmont and the rest of Greater London included. Send us the address for a quote.
What if it rains?
The roaster is under cover, so a shower doesn’t stop us. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Do we need to provide electricity?
The roaster runs on gas, so we do not need mains power to cook. Power can help with lighting after dark.
Do you bring plates?
We supply plates as standard. China is available at an extra cost.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
Where does the hog roast go?
A flat, open spot outside, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a photo if you are unsure.

For event organisers in Belmont

What a hog roast costs
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Distance from us
- The number of people
- The menu and extras such as lamb or chicken
- The serving time and how long we are on site
Cost depends on numbers, menu choices and service time, along with distance and how easy the site is. Every booking is different, which is why each one gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
To check the date and the space, we’ll need:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Any venue rules
- The address or postcode
- The date and when you’d like to eat
Not sure how many to cater for? A rough figure is fine for a first quote, and you can confirm nearer the time. Send us your details through our quote form.
Planning for dietary needs
Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Check with family about dietary needs
- Older guests may prefer food on plates
- Give us numbers for the alternatives
We arrive in good time and roast quietly, well away from the entrance.
Ask about china, quoted separately.
About the food
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, so they get something hot and satisfying too.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it is carved fresh as people come up.
The process
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. For a summer wake in Belmont, there is light until about 9:20pm, so people can spill into the garden.
- Tell us the date, venue and rough numbers.
- We confirm availability and send a simple quote.
- The roast cooks while you are at the service.
- Food is ready as guests gather.
- We clear away discreetly.
How to prepare
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Give us a contact number for the day
- Plan somewhere sheltered for people to eat if it rains

Is a hog roast right for your wake?
Compared with sandwich platters, hot food feels more caring. When comparing prices, compare the same things: menu, sides, serving time, staff, plates and travel. A cheaper headline price can leave things out.
