How our funeral wake catering works in Lampton
For a celebration of life, a hog roast can reflect the person being remembered. Tell us what matters to you and we will try to help. We’re frequently asked to cater celebration-of-life gatherings and gatherings at the family home, serving rotisserie chicken, halloumi skewers and salads.
Wakes in Lampton are often at home, a church hall or a pub with a garden. We need an outdoor spot to cook, which we can help you think through. The carving happens right in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Questions from Lampton
Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Lampton?
Frequently, if there’s a rear gate, a front garden or a yard we can use. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.
Can you cater after a service at St Luke?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Food is usually served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Do you cater in village halls?
Most places, with an outdoor spot for cooking.
Do you do DIY hog roast hire?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Is crockery included?
We bring plates as standard. China crockery is available on request and quoted separately.
How quickly can you cater a wake?
We do our best at short notice. Send the date and venue and we’ll reply promptly.
What if the service runs late?
That’s fine: we hold the food until people arrive.
What do people get?
Roast pork carved into soft rolls with sage and onion stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who does not eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Plates are easier for older guests than rolls
- Ask us to label the vegetarian food
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Find out who would prefer chicken or a vegetarian option
Our staff are discreet and respectful.
If there was a favourite dish from our menu, tell us.
Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Check early, and tell us what they ask for.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Let us know what your event requires and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Ideally:
- The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
- A hall or room for eating
- Flat ground outside the hall or house
As a London location, Lampton is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.
