About our funeral wake catering in Felbridge
For a celebration of life, a hog roast can reflect the person being remembered. Let us know if there’s anything special and we’ll try to help. On the menu are roast pork in rolls or on plates, rotisserie chicken and new potatoes, and typical bookings are for wakes at a local club and home wakes.
For a wake near Felbridge, a farmhouse or village hall frequently works well. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, slowly, over several hours, then carved fresh for your guests.

The menu, dish by dish
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Rotisserie chicken
Chicken from the rotisserie gives people a non-pork choice, turned until the skin is golden.
A hog roast compared with other options
Next to sandwiches, hot food feels more caring, especially in colder months. For larger numbers, a hog roast is usually good value, because one whole roast feeds plenty of people. Extras, china and longer service add to it.

- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- A clear quote with everything listed
- Carved to order by a chef

We cook on a gas-fired roaster, so we don’t need mains power to cook, though a socket nearby is handy for lighting. For a summer wake in Felbridge, there is light until about 9:20pm, so people can spill into the garden.
