Slow-roasted pork in Northfields

About our funeral wake catering in Northfields

Services can run over, and that’s fine: we will hold the food until people arrive. Name someone we can call on the day. We serve halloumi skewers, new potatoes and rotisserie chicken, and we are frequently booked for remembrance days and pub and club wakes.

Wakes in Northfields are frequently at home, a church hall or a pub with a garden. We need an outdoor spot to cook. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we pack away and leave the area as we found it.

Is a hog roast right for your wake?

Next to sandwiches, hot food feels more caring. Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.

Why Northfields hosts choose us

  • Crackling for everyone who wants it
  • Planned to your running order
  • Slow-roasted at your venue, not reheated
  • Salads, potatoes and coleslaw to go with it

Looking after everyone

Standard rolls and stuffing contain gluten, so ask for gluten-free rolls if you need them. A few more tips:

  • Plan separately if anyone needs halal food
  • Find out who would prefer chicken or a vegetarian option
  • Give us numbers for the alternatives
  • Keep the alternatives labelled

We hold the food if people are delayed.

Serve on plates with salads and potatoes for a sit-down meal.

How the day works

We work to your timings. If the day runs behind, a cooked roast can be kept hot for a while, so tell us as soon as plans change. Autumn and winter afternoons in Northfields get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a later wake may need lighting outside.

  1. Contact us as soon as you have a date.
  2. We check the cooking spot with the venue.
  3. We cook on site.
  4. Our staff serve without fuss.
  5. We leave the venue tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches
  • Have a covered area for eating in case of rain
  • Tell us about narrow gates or side passages

Common questions in Northfields

Can you cater after a service at Avenue Theatre?

Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby with an outdoor spot for the roaster. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Can you get a hog roast into a London garden in Northfields?

It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Tell us about steps, gates and parking and we will advise.

Can the hog roast be cooked indoors?

It cooks outside, under a gazebo, on a level spot. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.

Can you cater a wake at short notice?

Usually. Contact us when the date is set and we’ll answer right away.

Can you work around our timings?

We will be as flexible as we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.

Do we need to provide electricity?

Cooking is gas-fired, so no mains power is needed for the roast. Power can help with lighting after dark.

What do you need from us on the day?

Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.

Do you serve rolls or plates?

Either: rolls for a simple meal, plates with salads and potatoes for a fuller one.

Planning the cooking spot

Most outdoor spaces can work with a little planning. Here’s what helps:

  • The venue’s agreement to a gas-fired roaster
  • A level spot outdoors for the roaster
  • A hall or room for eating

Northfields 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 will tell you honestly before you book.
