Funeral and wake catering in Belmont
How our funeral and wake catering works in Belmont
Your funeral director or a family friend can deal with us directly, so you have one less thing to do. For celebrations of life and a tribute meal, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips for your guests.
For a wake in Belmont, a hall or club with a car park is often simplest, though home can work with a drive. You’ll know what’s included before booking: serving times, the menu and anything else agreed.

Organising for someone else?
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we’ll work through them with you.

Step by step
It’s a relaxed, well-organised set-up. We agree arrival and serving times in advance, set up where we’ve agreed, and get on with frying and serving. A wake in Belmont in late autumn or winter may run into the dark, with sunset about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so a lit path to the van is a kindness to older guests.
- First, the plan: what, where and what time.
- We come back with availability and a clear price.
- The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
- Batter, fish and chips all go into the fryer as people come up.
- We leave the spot as we found it.
How to prepare
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Name one person we can call on the day

A closer look at the menu
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who doesn’t want fish, and children love it.
Cod and chips
Cod and chips is the meal most people picture when they think of a chip shop. Fried to order in the van, it’s hot, crisp and generous.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.
For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wake.
FAQs for Belmont
Can you serve after a service at Church of St Anselm?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is generally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Could you trade in Canons Park?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, normally the council. Ask them first.
Can you go on a lawn or field?
That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and send a picture if you can.
Is everything cooked fresh?
It is. The fryers are in the van, so it is fried on the spot, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
What happens if it rains?
The weather does not stop the van, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How many people should we cater for?
Give us your best estimate, and we’ll plan with a little extra.
Do you come to Belmont?
We do. Belmont is one of the places we cover. Send us your date to check availability.
Can you be flexible on the day?
Of course. We serve when people are ready.
