A pub or venue may cater a wake themselves. A van works at home or at a hall. Larger groups typically cost less per head, because the van, travel and set-up cost much the same either way. Give us your numbers and we will quote.

How our funeral and wake catering works in Two Mile Ash

A wake needs warm, simple food. For many families, fish and chips is exactly that. We are often asked to cater small family memorials and village hall wakes, serving mushy peas, gravy and cod and chips.

For a wake in a place like Two Mile Ash, the village hall is frequently the heart of it, and its car park suits the van. We keep the menu short: fewer choices means fresher food and shorter queues.

If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we will advise.

How the day works

Rain doesn’t stop the fryers, because the cooking happens inside the van. It is worth thinking about cover for the queue, though. Late-December sunset in Two Mile Ash is about 3:55pm, so for an afternoon wake, light near the van and the door helps. Summer wakes have daylight well into the evening.

  1. First, tell us about your wake.
  2. You get an availability check and a clear quote.
  3. Timings and the van’s spot are agreed in advance.
  4. On the day, we park up and fry fresh for family and friends.
  5. We serve from the hatch, then leave the pitch tidy.

Preparing for the day

  • Tell us when you want to eat
  • Have a level parking spot ready
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies

  • A photo of the space and the way in
  • Where you’d like the van to go

For event organisers in Two Mile Ash

Venues often have their own rules about outside caterers and vehicles: parking spots, arrival times and documents. Tell us what your venue needs and we will work through them with you.

Parks, greens and streets generally need permission for a catering van. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.

Cannot we just order from the chip shop?

Weighing up a takeaway order against booking a van? Consider your numbers and how fresh you want it. Ask us for a quote and compare.

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 cooks in front of your guests instead.

Two Mile Ash: your questions answered

How far is Two Mile Ash from London?

Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and we cover it as standard.

Can you serve after a service at Church of the Holy Cross?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is typically served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you’ll gather.

Do you have allergen information?

Tell us about allergies when you book, and we will tell you what’s in each item and what we can offer.

What areas do you cover?

We cover London and the South East, Milton Keynes included. See all areas.

Do you come to Two Mile Ash?

Yes. We take the van across London and the South East, and Two Mile Ash is within our area and the rest of Milton Keynes. For a quote, use our quote form.

Is the food cooked at the event?

Yes. We fry to order in the van at your venue, and serve straight from the hatch.

Do you take everything away?

We clear the van’s area after service. Let us know about bins for guests.

Can the van park on grass?

Often, if the ground is firm and dry. After heavy rain, soft grass can be a problem for any vehicle, so have a hard-surface back-up.

What comes out of the fryer

Curry sauce

Some people won’t eat chips without curry sauce, so we bring it along.

Haddock and chips

Haddock has loyal fans: a firmer flake and a sweeter taste. Ask us about offering haddock alongside or instead of cod.
