How our funeral and wake catering works in Euston

We work quietly and simply. We arrive at the agreed time, park discreetly and serve when you are ready. For village hall wakes and gatherings at home after a funeral, we can cook cod and chips, haddock and chips and gravy for your guests.

For a wake in Euston, a hall or club with a car park is frequently simplest. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

Space, access and the venue

We’ll be honest if a spot will not work. The main points are:

  • Flat, firm ground for the van
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • A short walk from the party

Euston is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise before you book.

Food your guests will love

Pie and chips

A pie and chips is proper comfort food, and it is a favourite in colder months.

Haddock and chips

Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

How we price fish and chips for the wake

The price comes down to a few factors:

  • Access and parking
  • The day of the week
  • The number of meals
  • How far we travel

Travel, tolls and charges such as ULEZ can affect the price, so it helps to give us the postcode.

What we need to know

For a quote, it helps to have:

  • Allergies and diets you know about
  • The date and when you’d like to eat
  • A picture of the space and the way in
  • Where the event is

Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, plus when you’d like to eat, and we’ll reply with a quote. Just fill in our quote form.

Euston questions

Which station is closest to Euston?

London Euston station, in Euston itself.

Could you trade in Lewis Cubitt Park?

Only if the landowner, typically the council, allows it. Check with them first, and tell us what they say.

What’s on the menu?

The classics: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.

Do we need to provide anything?

A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Tell us whether there’s power or water nearby and we will take it from there.

How much space do you need?

Not much: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.

Can you come to the house?

Yes. Send us a picture of the drive or the road outside.

What about guests who do not eat fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Tell us roughly how many to expect.

Do you have allergen information?

Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

A fish and chip van or other catering?

15 questions to ask before booking

DIY versus a fish and chip van

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 you get to enjoy the day.

Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.

What happens on the day

There is very little for you to do on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your wake. We handle the cooking and serving. Summer evenings in Euston stay light until about 9:20pm, but in December it’s dark by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting near the door.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check the route in and send a price.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
  5. Service is straight from the hatch, then we pack up.

How to prepare

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies

Getting a price

It is easy to get a price: share your date, address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.
