Where the roaster can go in Roxeth
The cooking area is the main thing to plan. A quick checklist:
- Space away from the building and any trees
- Flat ground outside the hall or house
- Parking close by for our vehicle
As a London location, Roxeth 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 will advise before booking.

Funeral wake catering near Roxeth
We roast quietly on site while the service takes place, so food is ready when people arrive. We serve without fuss and clear up quietly. We’re frequently asked to cater celebrations of life and ashes ceremonies, with roast pork in rolls or on plates, rotisserie chicken and halloumi skewers.
For a wake in Roxeth, a hall or club with a yard or garden is frequently simplest, though home can work with a garden and side access. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.

Diets, allergies and alternatives
Some guests won’t eat pork, so it is worth adding an alternative. Helpful tips:
- Plan separately if anyone needs halal food
- Give us numbers for the alternatives
- Ask us to label the vegetarian food
- Ask for gluten-free rolls if needed
Food is served as everyone gathers, quietly and respectfully.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.
