Funeral Wakes

A quiet, kind place to say goodbye.

When you've just come back from the crematorium, the last thing you want to think about is logistics. We'll have everything ready. The kettle's on, the sandwiches are made, and you'll have the room to yourselves for four hours.

What's provided

Everything taken care of: one straightforward price.

We've held wakes here for decades. We know what families need, and we keep it simple so you can focus on the people in the room.
Hall hire
£50
Catering
£7per head

Catering is done in-house and includes everything below. No minimum numbers, no hidden charges, and we'll adjust on the day if more people come than you expected.

  • Teas & coffees
  • Sandwiches
  • Hot pies
  • Biscuits & home baking

Private entrance

A separate entrance into the hall, so your guests aren't walking through the bar. Quiet, dignified, easy to find.

Walking distance from Warriston

Less than a mile from Warriston Crematorium: a five-minute drive, or a gentle walk for those who'd rather not get back in a car.

No time pressure

You'll have the hall for four hours, plenty of time for family to gather, with no one hovering or rushing you along.

One contact

You'll deal with one person from the first call to the last cup of tea, not a sequence of inboxes.
