How our funeral wake catering works in Lacey Green
Some families choose a hog roast because it was a favourite. Let us know if there is anything special and we’ll try to help. We are often asked to cater remembrance days and gatherings at the family home, with new potatoes, salads and halloumi skewers.
In rural Lacey Green, home or the hall is usual, with the roaster in the yard or garden. Plates come as standard, with china available if you’d like it, at an extra cost.

Common questions in Lacey Green
Do you come out to small places like Lacey Green?
Not at all. We cater in villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.
Can you do a hog roast at a venue in the Chilterns National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules for caterers; ask your venue. We will work to whatever the site needs.
What do you need from us on the day?
The agreed cooking area, access for our equipment and someone to meet us. We bring everything else.
How do you work out quantities?
We plan quantities from the numbers you give us, and we’ll talk it through when we quote.
Where does the hog roast go?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
What comes with the hog roast?
The classic: pork in rolls with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. Your quote lists any sides and extras.
Is a week’s notice enough?
We’ll always try. Tell us the details and we will reply promptly.
Do you bring plates?
Plates are included. You can upgrade to china if you prefer.
A hog roast compared with other options
If the hall or pub provides food, ask whether outside caterers are allowed. When comparing prices, compare the same things: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

For planners, venues and organisers
Some venues add a fee for outside caterers, so check before you book. We will work with the venue on access and the cooking spot.
If you’re a venue or event planner, we’re happy to work alongside your team.
Step by step
We get there well ahead of service, since slow roasting can’t be rushed. Your guests will smell it long before they see it. In late September, sunset in Lacey Green is about 7:05pm; in December, about 3:55pm, so a later wake may need lighting outside.
- Share the date, place and numbers.
- We reply quickly with a price.
- We roast quietly during the service.
- We serve calmly as people arrive.
- We clear away discreetly.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment
- Think about shelter for your guests

Prices and what affects them
Every booking is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Crockery choices
- The journey to the venue
- Which meats and sides you choose
- How easy it is to reach the spot
The price depends on numbers, the menu and how long we serve, along with distance and how easy the site is. There’s no one-size price, which is why each one gets its own quote.
What to tell us
To check availability and the cooking area, we’ll need:
- Rough numbers
- Anything the venue has asked for
- Your date and serving time
- Allergies we should know about
A quote from us sets out the menu, timings, staffing and what’s included, so you can compare caterers fairly. Send us your details through our quote form.
