Spit Braai Catering › Areas We Serve

Areas We Serve

Greater Cape Town, the Northern and Southern Suburbs, the City Bowl, the Helderberg and out into the Winelands and the Boland. Travel is free within 30km of our Durbanville base and R500 to R1 500 out to 100km, which covers almost everywhere people actually hold events. Beyond that we will quote the travel separately and tell you up front.

Where Spit Braai Pro cooks

We are based in the Northern Suburbs and cater across greater Cape Town, out through the Helderberg and into the Winelands. Travel is free within 30km of Durbanville, R500–R800 from 30 to 50km, R1 000–R1 500 from 50 to 100km, and quoted openly beyond that rather than buried.

Suburbs with a page of their own

Most areas are covered on their region page. Six have enough of their own detail to warrant a separate one — the base we run from, the estate access, the wind, where the bigger headcounts happen, the Paarl heat and the Stellenbosch wine farms.

Catering by region

Each region has its own conditions — wind on the coast, fire-season rules on the wine estates, single-road access down the peninsula — so they are written up separately, with every suburb, estate and neighbourhood we cover named on the relevant page.

Cooking at a venue rather than a home? Tell us which one when you enquire. Most Winelands and Helderberg wedding venues we have cooked at already, and knowing the site saves a conversation about where the fire goes.

Wherever we are cooking, the per-head rate is the same — R150 for lamb — and the chef comes with it; only the travel line changes. See spit braai prices for what that covers.

Northern Suburbs

Durbanville, Bellville, Brackenfell, Table View and Milnerton. Our most frequent weekend run.

Helderberg

Somerset West, Strand and Gordon’s Bay. Wind off Sir Lowry’s Pass is the planning factor here.

Winelands & Boland

Stellenbosch, Paarl, Franschhoek and Wellington. Estate fire rules apply from December to April.

What we need on site

  • A level area about three metres square, on ground rather than a wooden deck
  • Reasonable shelter from heavy wind — a courtyard, carport or lee side of a building
  • Access to a tap
  • Vehicle access within a sensible carrying distance of where the spit will stand

No power is required. The spit runs on coals and, where needed, its own gas.

Beyond greater Cape Town

We do travel further — the Overberg, the Boland and up the West Coast. Up to 100km the travel is R1 000–R1 500; past that it is quoted, and told to you up front rather than added afterwards.

Areas we cover beyond the band

We do travel beyond greater Cape Town. Travel is R1 000 to R1 500 up to 100km, quoted beyond that, and told to you up front.

Places people mix up

These sit well past the 30km of Durbanville where travel is free. We do cover them; travel is R1 000 to R1 500 up to 100km, quoted beyond, and told to you up front rather than added after.

Suburbs and neighbourhoods

Outside greater Cape Town. We do come: R1 000 to R1 500 in travel up to 100km, quoted beyond that, and told to you up front.

The City Bowl, the Atlantic Seaboard and Hout Bay

Cooking on the Seaboard is rarely a question of whether we can get there and almost always a question of ground. A spit needs about three metres of level surface that is not a balcony or a timber deck, and somewhere to stand a vehicle while the equipment comes off. Tell us the address when you enquire and we will tell you straight away whether it works.

Seaboard and City Bowl areas we cook in

If your area is on this list, the rate is the same R150 a head for lamb, and travel runs from free to R800 depending on the distance from Durbanville. The thing to check first is whether there is ground-level space for the fire.

Places people mix up

Woodstock, Salt River and Observatory are City Bowl fringe, not Southern Suburbs, though they get filed both ways. Hout Bay is reached along the Atlantic Seaboard but is a valley of its own, and the timing is planned around Chapman’s Peak and Constantia Nek rather than the distance.

Suburbs and neighbourhoods

The question here is ground-level space: about three metres square, not a balcony or a wooden deck. Send a photo and we will tell you straight away.

Muizenberg to Simon's Town

Two things change the plan down the peninsula. One is the single road past Fish Hoek, which means the chef leaves earlier rather than later. The other is baboons: in the troop areas around Simon's Town, Da Gama Park, Glencairn and Scarborough an open fire with meat on it is an attraction, so the spit gets sited and screened with that in mind instead of being discovered on the day.

South Peninsula areas we cook in

If your area is on this list, the rate is the same R150 a head for lamb. Travel is R500 to R1 500 depending on how far down the peninsula you are, and the chef simply leaves earlier for the far end.

Places people mix up

Muizenberg and Lakeside are the northern end of the South Peninsula, not the Southern Suburbs. Simon’s Town, Glencairn and Da Gama Park are separate from Fish Hoek, and Noordhoek and Sun Valley are separate from Kommetjie.

Suburbs and neighbourhoods

Level ground and vehicle access, plus the drive: past Fish Hoek it is effectively one road, so the chef leaves earlier rather than cutting the cook short.

Mitchells Plain, Athlone and the Metro South-East

A good share of what we cook out this way is at halls, sports clubs and church grounds rather than gardens, which changes the practical questions: where the trailer stands, how far the carry is from the vehicle to the fire, and whether the headcount runs past 150. Same per-head rates as anywhere else, no surcharge, and travel priced by distance from Durbanville. If you are booking for a Muslim family or community function, the halaal-friendly spit braai page sets out exactly what we do and do not control — that is a religious decision and we would rather you made it on the facts.

Cape Flats and Metro South-East areas we cook in

If your area is on this list, the rate is the same R150 a head for lamb, with no surcharge. Travel is free within 30km of Durbanville and R500 to R800 past it.

Places people mix up

Mitchells Plain, Khayelitsha and Gugulethu are separate towns, not one area. Blue Downs, Eerste River and Mfuleni are Metro South-East, and get mis-filed under the Northern Suburbs because of the Kuils River boundary.

Suburbs and neighbourhoods

A level outdoor spot about three metres square, vehicle access and a tap. Same per-head rate as anywhere, no surcharge, and travel free within 30km of Durbanville.

This is a mobile catering service, so there is no shop or showroom to call at — the chef and the spit come to your venue. Durbanville is where the equipment lives and where the runs start from, which is why Northern Suburbs bookings get the earliest arrivals and the most margin on the day.
