How our funeral wake catering works in Hanger Hill
We know families have a lot to arrange: a short conversation, a clear quote and a calm service on the day. For gatherings after a cremation and memorial events, we can cook halloumi skewers, roast pork in rolls or on plates and rotisserie chicken for your guests.
In Hanger Hill, a hall with outdoor space is often the easiest option. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Questions from Hanger Hill
What’s the nearest station to Hanger Hill?
Acton Main Line station, about 0.7 miles east of the centre.
We are gathering after a service at Church of the Ascension: can you cater?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Send us the address.
Do you serve the food?
You don’t need anyone else: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
How much will it be?
Numbers, menu and travel decide the price. Tell us your date and we will send a price.
What space does the roaster need?
Enough level ground outdoors for the roaster and a serving table under cover, and a way to wheel everything in. Send us a picture if you’re unsure.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll confirm everything in writing.
Do you cater in village halls?
Most places, if the roaster can cook outside.
Is crockery included?
Plates are included. China is available at an extra cost.
How we price a hog roast for the wake
We don’t use a fixed price list, because every wake is different. The main factors are:
- Time on site
- Whether you want china
- The number of people
- Travel to Hanger Hill
Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
Details that help
Good details mean a good quote. Useful details:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Rules from the venue or landowner
- What the outdoor space is like

Working with your venue
Some venues charge a fee if you bring in your own caterer, so check before you book. We’ll work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If the event is on someone else’s land, the landowner needs to agree to cooking and vehicles. Sort that first.
Planning the cooking spot
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work if a few things are right. Here’s what helps:
- A friend or relative we can call
- Somewhere indoors for people to eat
- Permission from the hall or venue
Hanger Hill is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
Not sure about the cooking spot? Send us a photo and we’ll tell you honestly.

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with family members cooking, we take the cooking off the family’s hands. Most of the cost is the meat, the staff and the time on site. A long, slow roast means an early start, and the quote reflects that.
Why Hanger Hill hosts choose us
- Timed around your day
- Staff to serve, so you do not have to
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

Step by step
On the day, we set up the roaster on the agreed spot, put the cover up and start the roast. From there it cooks low and slow for hours, timed so it is ready when you want to eat. Late-December sunset in Hanger Hill is about 3:55pm, so for an afternoon wake, light near the serving area and the door helps. Summer wakes have daylight well into the evening.

- We reply quickly with a price.
- The roast cooks while you’re at the service.
- We serve calmly as people arrive.
