About our funeral and wake catering in Motspur Park
Services often run over, and we’ll work around the service and the family. Whether it is gatherings at a village hall or club and memorial gatherings, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips and more.
In Motspur Park, a hall with parking is often the easiest option. Every portion is cooked to order on the day, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

What else we do in Motspur Park
Common questions in Motspur Park
Can you serve after a service at Christ Church New Malden?
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.
What’s the nearest station to Motspur Park?
New Malden station, about 0.5 miles south-west of the centre.
What do we need to supply?
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.
Can the van park on grass?
Often, if the ground is firm and dry. Soft, wet ground can trap any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.
Can the van park on the street?
It depends on the road. A drive, car park or yard is normally easier; for the street, check the council’s rules.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.
Can the wake be at home?
Frequently, yes. Tell us about parking at the house.
Can you cater for allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll give you the allergen information.
Takeaway run or book a van?
Not sure whether to order in or book a van? Think about numbers, timing and how hot you want the food. Ask us for a quote and compare.
Collecting fish and chips for a crowd yourself is possible, but it is hard work. By the time you’ve queued, paid and driven back, the batter has gone soft. A van fries it right there, so it is crisp.
How it works
When we arrive, we position the van, set up the hatch and get the fryers up to temperature. Then everything is fried to order, so we time it to your schedule. In Motspur Park, it’s dark by about 7:05pm in late September and 3:55pm in December.
- The family or funeral director sends us the date, place and numbers.
- We check where the van can park and send a clear price.
- We plan a flexible serving time around the service.
- On the day we set up quietly and serve when guests are ready.
- Afterwards we pack up quietly and leave the spot tidy.
Before we arrive
- Plan where the queue will stand
- Name one person we can call on the day
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
How to get a price
Not sure of numbers yet? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. Start when you are ready: send us your details through our quote form.

Many venues set rules for catering vans: where a van can park, access times and the paperwork they want. Tell us what your venue needs and we will confirm what we can provide.
What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Curry sauce
Curry sauce divides opinion and it’s on the menu.
What the van needs
If a spot is not suitable, we will tell you, and suggest an alternative. What matters most:
- Room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Access wide and high enough for the van
As a London location, Motspur Park is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: 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.
