Funeral and wake catering in Perivale
How our funeral and wake catering works in Perivale
Some families choose it because it was a loved one’s favourite. Popular choices include mushy peas, pie and chips and gravy, and typical bookings are for wakes at venues and a favourite meal in someone’s memory.
In Perivale, a wake might be at home, a hall or a local pub. In London, the van needs off-road parking or a legal space nearby, which we can help you think through. We bring the van and everything we need to cook, and we leave the pitch tidy when we go.
