Choose a selection of flame grilled chicken wings and fries for the perfect finger food. For those who eat family style and big flavours, bring some cutlery, share a mega platter and choose a dessert from our selection.
Blanket and Seating: A large, comfortable blanket is a must. Consider foldable chairs for additional comfort.
Insulated bags: If you have one, bring an insulated bag to keep your Pepe’s meal warm for longer.

Sports: Bring a frisbee, soccer ball, or cricket set for some active fun.
Board Games and Cards: Perfect for a relaxing, laid-back picnic.
Books and Music: Bring a Bluetooth speaker for some tunes (don’t forget to be considerate of people nearby) and a few good books for some quiet time.
