Funeral wake catering in Wraysbury, carved to order

FAQs for Wraysbury
Can you cater after a service at Church of St Andrew?
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.
Could you cook in Arthur Jacob Nature Reserve?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you cater in village halls?
Homes, halls, clubs and venues, given an outdoor cooking area.
What if things run late?
Within reason, we can. Give us a contact on the day and we will adjust.
How much room do you need?
Roughly the footprint of a gazebo or two, on level ground, well clear of walls, tents and branches. We’ll check it with you before booking.
Do you serve the food?
No need for your own staff: our chef carves and our team serves and clears.
What’s included?
Rolls with roast pork, stuffing, apple sauce and crackling. You can add lamb, chicken, vegetarian and vegan options, salads, coleslaw and potatoes.
What should we sort out beforehand?
Only the space and a contact number. Everything for roasting and serving comes with us.
