Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A sit-down meal can feel formal. A van keeps it relaxed. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. Ask us what applies to your wake.

Funeral and wake catering for your wake in Stud Green
Fish and chips is informal, which suits a wake where people move around and talk. For remembering a loved one’s favourite food and anniversary memorials, we’ll put together a menu of pie and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips and more.
For a wake near Stud Green, a farmhouse or village hall frequently works well. The menu is short on purpose: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

- Cater for a few more than you expect
- Choose a friend to be our contact

Tea and coffee from the hall’s urn, or a friend’s tea table, goes well alongside.

DIY versus a fish and chip van
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. The problem is timing: big orders take a long time, and the food is cooling while it travels. A van solves that by cooking on site.
