Bay of Plenty catering services, we at Smokey Flame Catering aim to bring good food with a homely flair to your celebration, hearty, informal but still elegant. We want to be the accent to your perfect day, as we travelled around the Globe we found inspiration from other cuisines so we can offer something known and for the bold something from another World.
Originally from South Africa, now based in New Zealand, we are not a cookie cutter corporate business, in fact, we are the antithesis of this model. All menus are customized to suit your occasion and taste (current travel radius – 350 km – base Whakatane).
These guys prepare and present amazing food. There was a great selection of salads, meats and desserts to chose from and everything that we had chosen was delicious. Having them come along and cook onsite adds to the fun of it as you get to enjoy the wonderful smell of the food cooking. Super friendly and efficient to deal with too. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again.

Wow! These guys are absolutely amazing. Great communication pre-event, a site visit, ability to change things up as needed and always so friendly and accommodating. Then there is the food! Amazing. They catered for approx. 130 people at a 40th birthday and post party we had reports from some proper meat eaters that it was the best thing they’d ever had. Highly recommend, A+, can’t speak highly enough.

I have never been so blown away by such incredible food, service, and friendliness as I have by Andre and his wife. We had Smokey Flame Catering for our wedding, and they were incredible. From the tasting sessions to the mouth watering food on the day. I would highly recommend using this lovely family owned business for your next catering needs! Could not sing their praises more, we will be using them again if we have any more large catering requirements

“Amazing food, great atmosphere, lovely people. What an amazing experience dining in the Smokey Flame horse float restaurant yesterday. They cook the food right in front of you at a location of your choice, highlights were the beef cheeks, literally melt in your mouth. The accompanying salads were very flavourful too.”
