- A spot near your guests
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Takeaway run or book a van?
Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
Diets, allergies and planning
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Check the hall or venue allows a catering van
- Choose a friend to be our contact
- Funeral directors can help with numbers
- Plan seating for older guests
Afterwards, we leave quietly.
Somewhere quiet to sit helps some guests.

What happens on the day
Because we cook inside the van, rain doesn’t stop us. Guests will still appreciate a bit of cover near the hatch. Late-December sunset in Binfield is about 3:55pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting near the van. Summer wakes have daylight well into the evening.
