Funeral & Wake Catering in Callington
Funeral catering in Callington is straightforward, respectful food for a wake or memorial gathering: sandwiches and finger food through to a hot fork buffet. Everything is delivered on time, set out quietly before people arrive, and cleared away without fuss, so nobody in the family has to think about the catering. Prices start from £7.95pp including VAT, and cover the food, the equipment and the setup. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options carry no surcharge, and everything arrives ready to serve. We travel to Callington from our Redruth kitchen, about 50 minutes away, and cover it regularly. We need somewhere to set the food down and vehicle access to unload, and we handle the rest. We agree a ready-by time with you and deliver ahead of it, so the food is not sitting around before guests arrive.

What customers say
“We recently used Salt Wind Catering for our wedding, and they were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They provided a delicious summer buffet that our guests are still talking about – everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavour. The team were professional, punctual, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. They delivered exactly as promised, arriving on time and ensuring everything ran smoothly. It was also really reassuring to know they were just a phone call away if we had any questions. Overall, we were really happy with the service and would recommend Salt Wind Catering to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality catering. Thank you for helping make our day so special! Ruth and Charlie”
