About our funeral and wake catering in Noel Park

Wakes are rarely planned months ahead, so contact us as soon as you can. Whether it is village hall wakes and life celebrations, we’ll put together a menu of cod and chips, pie and chips and haddock and chips and more.

In Noel Park, a hall with parking is often the easiest option, though home can work with a drive. Everything is fried fresh at your wake, not cooked earlier and kept warm, and served the moment it comes out of the fryer.

Allergies and dietary needs

Nearly every event has some special diets. To look after them:

  • Arrange tea and coffee separately
  • Ask your funeral director to help estimate numbers
  • Ensure older relatives can sit
  • Name a contact for the day who is not close family

We arrive in good time and park discreetly before guests return from the service.

A quiet room away from the crowd is a kindness.

How the day works

You don’t need to do much on the day: show us the spot, tell us when to start, and enjoy your wake. We handle the cooking and serving. Sunset in Noel Park is about 7:05pm in late September and about 3:55pm in December; plan a lit path from the door to the van.

  1. First, the plan: what, where and what time.
  2. We come back with availability and a clear price.
  3. The van’s spot is fixed in advance.
  4. On the day, everything is cooked to order, so nothing sits in a hot cabinet.
  5. The pitch is left tidy when we go.

Getting ready for the day

  • Send us final numbers and any allergies in good time
  • Choose a level, firm spot for the van
  • Keep space clear for guests at the hatch

Questions from Noel Park

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mark?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is usually elsewhere. Send us the address.

Is parking a problem for the van in Noel Park?

London parking needs planning: let us know about off-street space or permits. We’ll plan around it.

Can the van park on grass?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we’ll advise.

What does it cost to hire the van?

It depends on numbers, the menu, how long we serve and travel. Send us the details for a quote.

Do you cover Noel Park?

We do. Noel Park is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.

When do you arrive?

It depends on numbers and the service time. We agree arrival, serving and finishing times with you before the day.

Do you bring everything you need?

Everything is cooked in the van. Let us know what’s available at the site and we’ll confirm what we need.

Do you do anything other than fish?

Yes: sausages and pies, with chips. Give us a rough idea of numbers.

DIY versus a fish and chip van

Ordering from a local shop? Call ahead and collect at the last minute. For a crowd, a van is normally simpler.

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

Why choose funeral and wake catering in Noel Park?

There is little waste, because food is cooked to order.

Our booking checklist

Where the van can park in Noel Park

We will agree the van’s spot with you before the day. A good spot ticks these boxes:

  • A clear way in, with no low branches, cables or narrow gates
  • Confirmation that the van can park there
  • Room in front of the hatch for a queue

As a London location, Noel 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 will advise before you book.
