How our funeral wake catering works in Two Mile Ash
We know families have a lot to arrange: one call, one quote and quiet, reliable service. Whether it is memorial events and anniversary memorials, we will put together a menu of new potatoes, apple sauce and halloumi skewers for your guests.
Around Two Mile Ash, wakes are frequently at the village hall, a pub or home. Tell us about outdoor space for the roaster. Our chef carves in front of your guests, so the pork is hot and the crackling is crisp, and nothing sits in a hot cabinet.

Common questions in Two Mile Ash
Can you cater after a service at Church of the Holy Cross?

Could you cook in South Loughton Valley park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Can you do gluten-free?
Gluten-free rolls are available on request. Ask for the allergen list, as stuffing normally contains gluten.
