For event organisers in Broomhall
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll confirm what we can provide.
How our funeral and wake catering works in Broomhall
Your funeral director or a family friend can deal with us directly, so you have one less thing to do. We’re often asked to cater wakes at church halls and clubs and gatherings at home after a funeral, with cod and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips.
Around Broomhall, wakes are frequently at the village hall, a pub or home. Let us know where the van can go. Everything we need comes with the van, and we pack up and leave the spot as we found it.
