Funeral wake catering in Deepcut, carved to order
A wake might be at home, a village or church hall, a club or a pub. We need an outdoor spot to cook, and the food can be served inside. On the menu are salads, halloumi skewers and roast pork in rolls or on plates, and we are regularly asked to cater wakes at home and celebration-of-life gatherings.
In Deepcut, the hall or the family home is a natural choice. Tell us about outdoor space for the roaster. We bring plates as standard, and china crockery is available on request, quoted separately.
For planners, venues and organisers
Event organisers frequently ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.

Which station is closest to Deepcut?
The closest is Farnborough North station, roughly 1.9 miles away.
Can you do a hog roast in Frimley Lodge Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council, and many parks don’t allow cooking. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you need anything from the family?
Only the place, numbers and a contact. We bring everything else.
Can you do something else?
Chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We do not offer halal meat.
Do you clear up?
We pack everything away after service, and we take our equipment with us.

What do people get?
Pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling in a soft roll. Sides and extra meats are listed in your quote.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. Serving indoors is usually fine if the venue is happy.
Why a carved hog roast beats a buffet
Compared with sandwich platters, a hog roast is a warm meal, especially in colder months. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Why book our hog roast in Deepcut
- Fresh carving at the serving station

What else we do in Deepcut
A closer look at the menu
Stuffing and apple sauce

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Vegetarians get halloumi and vegetable skewers, a hot, filling option of their own.
How the day works
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. The smell normally brings people over long before we carve. In winter, it is dark in Deepcut by about 3:55pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting by the food. In summer, there is daylight until about 9:20pm.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough numbers and when people will arrive.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a simple quote.
- We roast quietly while the service takes place.
- Food is ready when people arrive.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
Preparing for the day
- Check there’s a route to wheel the equipment in, without steps
- Pick a flat, open area outside for cooking
- Measure the narrowest gate or passage

Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Plates are easier for older guests than rolls
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
- Plan separately if anyone needs halal food
We hold the food if people are delayed; just let us know.
Rotisserie chicken is a good alternative for those who don’t eat pork.
- Cooked where you are, slowly, over several hours outdoors
- Freshly carved pork with crackling, stuffing and apple sauce
- Lamb, chicken and vegetarian options alongside the pork
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
