Kingsash: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at Old Church of St John the Baptist?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Which station is closest to Kingsash?
Wendover station, about 2 miles north-west of the centre.
Do you serve the food?
We carve and serve for you, then clear the serving area afterwards.
Can you do something else?
Chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
What if people arrive late?
We wait: a cooked roast can be held for a while.
Where can you serve a wake?
At home, a hall, a club or a venue, as long as there is an outdoor spot to cook.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Ask us for a quote.
Can you cater in Kingsash?
We do. Tell us the venue or postcode and we will check the date.
A closer look at the menu
Salads, potatoes and coleslaw
Coleslaw is the natural partner for a pork roll, and salads and new potatoes work well on a plate.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.
Is a hog roast right for your wake?
Next to a cold buffet, roast pork on a plate with potatoes is more filling. 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.
