About our funeral wake catering in Noel Park
If the service runs late, we wait: a cooked roast can be held for a while. Name someone we can call on the day. Popular choices include salads, halloumi skewers and rotisserie chicken, and we’re regularly asked to cater gatherings at clubs and pubs and gatherings after scattering ashes.
Wakes in Noel Park are often at home, a church hall or a pub with a garden. In London, outdoor space for the roaster is the thing to check. 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.

How it works
The roaster is gas-fired, so we don’t need mains power to cook; a nearby socket helps with lights if service runs into the evening. Late-December sunset in Noel Park is about 3:55pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting by the food. Summer wakes have daylight well into the evening.
- You tell us the date, the venue, rough numbers and when people will arrive.
- You get a quick answer on the date, and a quote.
- We set up and roast while you’re at the service.
- Food is ready when people arrive.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly.
How to prepare
- Plan a step-free way in for the equipment

How to get a price

Planning help
Organising for someone else?
If you’re booking for a workplace, ask your facilities team about outside caterers and gas cooking. We work to the site’s rules.
Marquee hire companies often have rules about cooking near their tents, so tell them a hog roast is coming. The roaster stays a safe distance from the marquee.

About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce

Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
For vegetarians, halloumi and vegetable skewers are cooked separately from the meat, a hot, filling option of their own.
Noel Park: your questions answered
What’s the nearest station to Noel Park?
The closest is Alexandra Palace station, roughly 0.8 miles away.
What if our house in Noel Park has no side access?
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.
What’s the price?
Every booking is quoted individually, depending on numbers, menu, timings and travel. Ask us for a quote.
Can you do gluten-free?
We can provide gluten-free rolls if you ask. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
Do you cater in village halls?
Most places, with an outdoor spot for cooking.
What if the service runs late?
Name someone we can call and we will serve when everyone is there.
What about guests who don’t eat pork?
Add lamb, chicken, halloumi and vegetable skewers or a vegan option. We don’t offer halal meat.
How quickly can you cater a wake?
Typically. Contact us as soon as you have a date and we will tell you quickly.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
We give full allergen information for every dish. To make the most of it:
- Plates are easier for older guests than rolls
- Plan separately if anyone needs halal food
- Check with family about dietary needs
- Count anyone who does not eat pork
One contact for the day helps, so the immediate family isn’t disturbed.
Rotisserie chicken is a good alternative for those who do not eat pork.
What the cooking area needs
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- A level spot outdoors for the roaster
- Parking close by for our vehicle
- Somewhere indoors for people to eat
Noel Park is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: 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 will advise before booking.
