How our funeral wake catering works in Pitshanger
Some families choose a hog roast because it was a favourite. Tell us what matters to you and we will try to help. We are often asked to cater family meals after a funeral and pub and club wakes, serving halloumi skewers, roast pork in rolls or on plates and new potatoes.
In Pitshanger, a wake might be at home, a hall or a local pub. We need an outdoor spot to cook. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:
- Halal is not offered, so arrange it separately
- Ask us to label the vegetarian food
- Tell us about vegetarians and vegans
- Stuffing normally contains gluten, so check the allergen list
We serve when people arrive, calmly and without fuss.
Rotisserie chicken is a good alternative for those who don’t eat pork.
What the cooking area needs
The right spot for the roaster makes everything easier. Look for:
- Approval from the landlord or committee
- Space inside for guests
- A friend or relative we can call
As a London location, Pitshanger is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access takes planning: tell us about side or rear access, steps and parking for our vehicle.

For planners, venues and organisers
If the event is on someone else’s land, you will need the landowner’s permission for cooking and vehicles. Get that agreed before booking.
Venues frequently have rules for outside caterers, from approved lists to where a gas roaster can go. Ask early, and pass on anything they need from us.
What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: the chef carves and the team serves, with the sides served alongside. When everyone has eaten, we clear up and leave the spot tidy. Autumn and winter afternoons in Pitshanger get dark early: about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a later wake may need lighting outside.
- It starts with the date, venue and when people are expected.
- We check the date and the cooking spot, then send a simple quote.
- We roast quietly while the service takes place.
- Food is ready when people arrive.
- We clear away discreetly.
Getting ready for the day
- Have a level outdoor spot ready
- Name a contact for the day
- Keep the spot clear of buildings, marquee walls and overhanging branches

A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a cold buffet, roast pork on a plate with potatoes is more filling. A hog roast is frequently good value for a crowd, since one roast goes a long way. Extras, china and longer service add to it.
