Planning the cooking spot is the key. Check these:

- Space away from the building and any trees
As a London location, Broadfields Estate is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before booking.

Funeral wake catering in Broadfields Estate, carved to order
Some families choose a hog roast because it was a favourite. Let us know if there’s anything special and we’ll do our best. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, apple sauce and salads, and typical bookings are for remembrance days and gatherings at the family home.
In Broadfields Estate, a wake might be at home, a hall or a local pub. In London, outdoor space for the roaster is the thing to check, which we can help you think through. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you exactly what’s in each dish before booking.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Ask us to label the vegetarian food
- Check with family about dietary needs
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
If the service runs late, we wait; just let us know.
Ask about china.
How the day works
The roaster is gas-fired, so cooking doesn’t depend on mains power; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. In winter, it’s dark in Broadfields Estate by about 3:55pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting by the food. In summer, there’s daylight until about 9:20pm.

Common questions in Broadfields Estate
Can you cater after a service at St Andrew?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
What if our house in Broadfields Estate has no side access?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. We can frequently serve indoors if the venue agrees.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.
What if people arrive late?
We wait: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
What do you need from us on the day?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
Is there a non-pork option?
The menu has lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options. Halal meat isn’t something we offer.
