Questions from Eastbury
We’re gathering after a service at Emmanuel Church: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Send us the address.
Can you do a hog roast in King George V Playing Fields?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Do you provide china?
We supply plates as standard. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
Does the roaster have to be outside?
The roaster always stays outside, under cover, away from buildings and marquee walls. Serving inside is often possible, with the venue’s agreement.
Do you need anything from the family?
Just the venue, rough numbers and a contact for the day. We bring everything else.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
How big a hog will we need?
We size the roast to your numbers, so a good estimate matters. We’ll confirm the menu in the quote.
Do you come to Eastbury?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Eastbury and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we’ll quote.
What comes off the roaster
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Stuffing and apple sauce
Sage and onion stuffing and apple sauce are the classic partners, balancing the rich, salty pork.
Why choose funeral wake catering in Eastbury?
It feeds everyone at once, so people can sit and talk.
Lots of different events suit a hog roast. Typical bookings include:
- Wakes at a local club
- One-year memorials
- Life celebrations
- Remembrance gatherings
After a service at Emmanuel Church, a wake at a hall or home close by means less travelling for everyone.

Planners, venues and businesses
Many venues set rules for outside caterers, including where gas cooking is allowed. Check early, and pass on anything they need from us.
For workplace bookings, check with facilities about gas equipment and vehicle access. We work to the site’s rules.
A hog roast compared with other options
If the hall or pub provides food, ask whether outside caterers are allowed. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
