A closer look at the menu
Cod and chips
Cod is the classic: mild, white and flaky, and it’s the favourite in much of the south. We batter it and fry it to order.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips covers anyone who does not want fish, and children love it.
How our funeral and wake catering works in Denbigh
It is an informal meal, which suits a wake where people move around and talk. Typical bookings include gatherings at a village hall or club and gatherings after the committal, with sausage and chips, haddock and chips and cod and chips.

What happens on the day
Serving is straightforward: everything is handed over hot from the hatch, and people can eat where they like. When service is finished, we pack up and leave the pitch tidy. Late-December sunset in Denbigh is about 3:55pm, so for an afternoon wake, light near the van and the door helps. Summer wakes have daylight well into the evening.

Planning help
Planning for dietary needs
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Confirm the van can park at the hall
- Ensure older relatives can sit
- Let someone else talk to us on the day
- Allow a little extra
We park quietly.
Some families add a favourite dessert or cake.
Organising for someone else?
Venues frequently have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.
For big groups, the service window matters, so we can plan service to match. Sending people up in groups helps.
Space, access and the venue
Before the day, we will agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A spot near your guests
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Flat, firm ground for the van
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- Gravy
- Sausage and chips
- Mushy peas
