How our funeral wake catering works in Sullington
Wakes in Sullington happen at homes, halls, clubs and pubs. Wherever it is, the roaster cooks outdoors under cover, and we serve indoors where the venue allows. Typical bookings include family get-togethers after a service and memorial events, serving salads, new potatoes and roast pork in rolls or on plates.
In a small place like Sullington, a wake might be at home, in a barn or at the village hall. Let us know about access. Everything is cooked on the day, at your venue, low and slow, for hours, and carved only when you’re ready to eat.

Sullington: your questions answered
Can you cater after a service at The Parish Church of St Mary?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with room to cook outside. Churches rarely have space for a hog roast, so the food is typically elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Do you cover Sullington?
Yes. We cater across London and the South East, including Sullington and West Sussex. Tell us the venue and we will quote.

Outside, always. The food can be carried in and served indoors where the venue allows.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: we carve, serve and tidy up.
Can we hire the machine and cook it ourselves?
Yes, we hire out the hog roast machine. We will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.

Give us a contact for the day and we’ll adjust.
