Funeral wake catering in Toy's Hill, carved to order
We roast quietly on site while the service takes place, ready for when everyone comes back. Our staff serve calmly and clear away discreetly. On the menu are roast pork in rolls or on plates, salads and rotisserie chicken, and we are often booked for hall gatherings after a service and one-year memorials.
Wakes in Toy's Hill are frequently at home, a church hall or a pub with a garden. In London, outdoor space for the roaster is the thing to check. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so every roll gets hot pork and a piece of crackling, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Common questions in Toy's Hill
Can you do a hog roast in Stubbs Wood Country Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
What if our house in Toy's Hill has no side access?
It depends on access: a rear gate or yard normally works. Send us a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Do you leave the area tidy?
Our staff clear up after service, leaving the spot as we found it.
What if it rains?
We roast under cover, so the food is not affected. Your guests will want somewhere dry to eat.
Can you cater a wake at short notice?
Normally. Contact us when the date is set and we’ll tell you quickly.
How much does a hog roast cost?
Each event is priced on its own, based on numbers, menu, service time and distance. Tell us about your wake for a quote.
How long does the roast need?
Hours rather than minutes. You will know our arrival time in advance.
What space does the roaster need?
A level, open area outdoors with room for the roaster, a gazebo and a carving table, away from buildings, marquee walls and overhanging trees. We’ll confirm the space with your quote.
Looking after everyone
We give full allergen information for every dish. To help:
- Plan separately if anyone needs halal food
- Stuffing typically contains gluten, so check the allergen list
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Count anyone who doesn’t eat pork
One contact for the day helps, so the family can focus on guests.
Gluten-free rolls are available on request.

About the food
Roast pork
Hours of slow roasting make the pork soft and full of flavour, and it’s carved fresh as people come up.
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Let us know numbers for the vegan option, and we’ll bring enough vegan burgers or sausages.
For planners, venues and organisers
Planning on behalf of a committee? A single point of contact keeps things simple, especially on the day.
Event organisers often ask caterers for paperwork such as a risk assessment. Tell us what you need and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
Is a hog roast right for your wake?
If the hall or pub provides food, ask whether outside caterers are allowed. Adding lamb, chicken, extra sides or china changes the price, so we list each one in the quote. Keeping it simple keeps it affordable.
Why book with us
- Our staff serve and clear
- Self-contained: roaster, cover and serving kit
- Choices for people who do not eat pork
- Fresh carving at the serving station
See our prices page or the cost guide.
How we price a hog roast for the wake
Every booking is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Whether you want china
- Time on site
- How many people are eating
- Site access
What you pay covers the meat, the chef and staff, and hours of roasting. A long, slow roast means an early start, which is built into the price.
Getting an accurate quote

- Your date and serving time

What the cooking area needs
A good cooking spot makes the day run smoothly. Ideally:
- Somewhere indoors for people to eat
- One contact on the day
- A level spot outdoors for the roaster
