Funeral and wake catering in Tongham
Before you choose a spot
Most drives, car parks, yards and firm lawns can take the van, but a few things matter:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Space for people to queue at the hatch
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Funeral and wake catering for your wake in Tongham
We understand that timings on the day can move, and we will work around the service and the family. Whether it is remembrance gatherings and gatherings at a village hall or club, we can cook sausage and chips, gravy and mushy peas.
In Tongham, the hall is often where people gather. Everything is fried fresh at your wake, never cooked in advance and left in a hot cabinet, and handed over as soon as it’s ready.
What affects the price in Tongham
There is nothing hidden: the price is based on:
- Access and parking
- How far we travel
- Cod, haddock or both
- How long we serve
A chip van frequently compares well with a plated meal, as there’s no kitchen to hire and nothing to wash up. Ask us for a quote.

To speed things up, tell us:
- A photo of the space and the way in
- The date and time of the event
- Rough numbers for adults and children
- Access details such as gates and narrow lanes
Still finalising the details? No problem: give us a rough idea and the date, and we’ll firm it up nearer the time. Start when you’re ready: send us your details through our quote form.
How the day works
If the plan changes on the day, a quick word is all it takes: we’ll adjust start times and pace. In summer, a wake in Tongham has light until about 9:20pm, while winter afternoons darken by about 3:55pm, so plan lighting near the door.

- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for family and friends.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
Getting ready for the day

Diets, allergies and planning
With a little notice, diets are easier to plan for. Our advice:
- Ask a friend to run a tea table
- Choose a friend to be our contact
- Confirm the van can park at the hall
- Let us know of any allergies
Make sure older relatives can sit to eat.
Tea and coffee from the hall’s urn, or a friend’s tea table, goes well alongside.

What if the service runs late?
Yes. We serve when people are ready.
What does the van need?

Organising for someone else?
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we will talk you through the process. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
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.
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Ordering in from a local chip shop is an option. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
