About our funeral wake catering in Green Street
After a funeral in Green Street, people need somewhere to gather and something warm to eat. Roast pork in a roll or on a plate is comforting and familiar, and nobody in the family has to cook. For wakes at a local club and one-year memorials, we’ll put together a menu of rotisserie chicken, new potatoes and halloumi skewers.
For a wake near Green Street, a farmhouse or village hall frequently works well, with the roaster in the yard or garden. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours.

- Access to the cooking area
- Travel to Green Street
- Whether you want china

Green Street questions
Can you do a hog roast in Filsham Reedbed?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What about windy coastal sites?
Yes, of course. We roast under cover and choose a sheltered spot where we can.
Do we need our own staff?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What’s the price?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?
Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
What comes with the hog roast?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Extras include lamb, chicken, halloumi skewers, a vegan option, salads and potatoes.
For event organisers in Green Street
For workplace bookings, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We’ll fit in with site rules.
Marquee suppliers typically set distances for cooking equipment, so let them know about the roaster. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Not everyone eats pork, so it’s worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Older guests may prefer food on plates
- Remember stuffing normally contains gluten
- Check with family about dietary needs
One contact for the day helps, so the family can focus on guests.
Rotisserie chicken is a good alternative for those who don’t eat pork.
How the day works
Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so keep us posted on the day. Late-December sunset in Green Street is about 3:55pm, so for an afternoon wake, light near the serving area and the door helps. In summer, there is daylight until about 9:15pm.
- Share the date, place and numbers.
- We reply quickly with a price.
- We roast quietly during the service.
- Food is ready as guests gather.
- We pack up quietly.
How to prepare
- Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
- Make sure we can wheel the roaster to the spot
- Check there’s nothing overhead or close by that could catch the heat
