How our funeral and wake catering works in Knightsbridge
Services often run over, so we stay flexible. We serve pie and chips, haddock and chips and sausage and chips, and we’re frequently booked for family meals after the service and wakes at a pub or venue with outside space.
For a wake in Knightsbridge, a hall or club with a car park is often simplest. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer.

Occasions we serve in Knightsbridge
Families choose fish and chips because it’s comforting and familiar.
Big or small, the van works the same way. Common bookings include:
- Remembrance gatherings
- Scattering of ashes gatherings
- Village hall wakes
- Wakes at a pub or venue with outside space
After a service at Deutsche Evangelische Christuskirche, a wake at a hall or home close by means less travelling for everyone.
Before booking anyone

- Any travel, parking or access charges

Before you choose a spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- Flat, firm ground for the van
- Confirmation that the van can park there
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Knightsbridge is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: tell us about driveways, yards, car parks or a council parking suspension.
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise before you book.

About the food
Mushy peas
Mushy peas are made from dried marrowfat peas, soaked and cooked until soft. They’re the side most people expect.
Gravy
Gravy brings a bit of warmth to the meal.
Diets, allergies and planning
We take allergies seriously. Here’s how you can help:
- Name a contact for the day who isn’t close family
- Tell us about any close family with allergies
- Cater for a few more than you expect
- Plan seating for older guests
Ensure older relatives can sit to eat.
Tea and coffee from the hall’s urn, or a friend’s tea table, goes well alongside.
For planners, venues and organisers
For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Staggering groups helps a lot.
Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Send us your venue’s requirements and we’ll work through them with you.

Your questions about fish and chips for the wake in Knightsbridge
We are gathering after a service at Deutsche Evangelische Christuskirche: can you come?
Yes, at a home, hall or venue nearby where the van can park. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Could you trade in Royal Parks of London?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first.
Can you serve children?
Children are very welcome. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we will advise.
Can the van come to Knightsbridge?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, and Knightsbridge is within our area. For a quote, send us your details through our quote form.
What if the weather’s bad?
The weather doesn’t 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.
Do you take everything away?
We clear the van’s area after service. Tell us where bins can go for people’s paper and trays.
What’s on the menu?
Chip-shop favourites: cod or haddock and chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. See the menu.
