About our funeral wake catering in Enfield Highway
Wakes in Enfield Highway happen at homes, halls, clubs and pubs. Wherever it is, the roaster cooks outdoors under cover, and we serve indoors where the venue allows. Popular choices include new potatoes, halloumi skewers and salads, and typical bookings are for church and village hall wakes and remembrance gatherings.
In Enfield Highway, a wake might be at home, a hall or a local pub. We need an outdoor spot to cook. Timings are planned around your wake, working back from when you want to eat, so the food is ready at the right moment.

A closer look at the menu
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Roast pork
The hog roasts slowly for hours, so the meat is tender and juicy, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Where the roaster can go in Enfield Highway
Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Somewhere indoors for people to eat
- A safe distance from the hall
- One contact on the day
As a London location, Enfield Highway is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

Enfield Highway questions
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Enfield Highway?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard typically works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we’ll advise.
Could you cook in Gunpowder Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council, and many parks do not allow cooking. Check with them first.
Can you cater at home?
At home, a hall, a club or a venue, as long as there’s an outdoor spot to cook.
What about coeliacs?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Is there an alternative to pork?
Yes, add chicken or a vegetarian option.
How much room do you need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, plus a step-free route to wheel the equipment in. A photo helps.
Do you come to Enfield Highway?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, Enfield Highway and the rest of Greater London included. Tell us the venue and we will quote.
What if it rains?
Rain doesn’t stop the cooking. A marquee, hall or barn for eating makes all the difference.
What affects the price in Enfield Highway
We do not use a fixed price list, because every wake is different. What matters most:
- Travel to Enfield Highway
- How long the roast and service take
- The number of people
- Site access
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Getting an accurate quote
To check availability and the cooking area, tell us:
- Dietary requirements
- Rough numbers
- The date and when you’d like to eat
- Your menu choices
Every wake is quoted on its own, because numbers, menu, serving time and travel vary. Tell us about your wake for a quote: use our quote form.
A hog roast compared with other options
If the venue has its own caterer, ask whether outside caterers are allowed. The main driver is numbers: the price per head typically falls as numbers rise, since much of the cost is fixed.
