Funeral and wake catering in Strawberry Hill
About our funeral and wake catering in Strawberry Hill
The wake can be at home, at a village hall or club, or at a venue with space outside, wherever the van can park. Typical bookings include wakes at church halls and clubs and anniversary memorials, serving gravy, pie and chips and sausage and chips.
In Strawberry Hill, a hall with parking is often the easiest option. We serve from the hatch, so every portion is hot, and the queue keeps moving.

For event organisers in Strawberry Hill
Parks, greens and streets normally need permission for a catering van. Ask the council or landowner early.
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’ll confirm what we can provide.
Strawberry Hill: halls, homes and travel
Strawberry Hill is about 1 mile south of Twickenham, in Greater London.

How we price fish and chips for the wake

- Any minimum charge
- The length of service

- Where you’d like the van to go
- Your date and serving time
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
- Any dietary needs and allergies
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time, and you will get a clear price. Just send us your details through our quote form.
Looking after everyone
Good planning keeps every guest safe and happy. Try these:
- Check the hall or venue allows a catering van
- Ask a friend to run a tea table
- Cater for a few more than you expect
- Choose a friend to be our contact
We park quietly before guests return from the service.
Some families add a favourite dessert or cake.
A closer look at the menu

Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it’s especially welcome on a cold day.
Haddock and chips
Haddock has loyal fans: sweeter and a touch firmer than cod. Tell us if you’d like to offer it.
Strawberry Hill: your questions answered
Can you serve after a service at Holy Trinity Church?
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 normally elsewhere. Send us the address.
Can the van park in Marble Hill Park?
Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Check with them first.
Do we need to provide anything?
Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
Can you serve children?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we’ll plan for them.
What if we only have street parking?
That depends on local parking rules. A drive, car park or yard is generally easier; if it has to be the street, check with the council.
How long does set-up take?
It depends on numbers and the service time. We confirm all the timings beforehand.
Do we need to provide equipment?
All the cooking happens in the van. Tell us about power, water and bins at the site.
Which areas do you serve?
We take the van across London and the South East, Greater London included. Find your area.

How the day works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. Late-December sunset in Strawberry Hill is about 3:55pm, so an afternoon wake in winter needs lighting near the van. In summer, there is daylight until about 9:20pm.
- It starts with the date, where the wake is and roughly how many.
- We check the spot for the van and send a quote.
- We plan a flexible serving time around the service.
- On the day we set up quietly and serve when guests are ready.
- When everyone has eaten, we clear up and go.
Preparing for the day
- Check the venue or landowner is happy for the van to park
- Let us know the serving time
- Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: tell us the date, place, numbers and serving time. We will send a clear quote that says what’s included.

What the van needs
Before the day, we’ll agree where the van parks. It needs to tick a few simple boxes:
- A level hardstanding, drive or firm lawn
- Lighting nearby for evening events
- A clear area by the serving hatch
As a London location, Strawberry Hill is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
