Monty’s Famous Spitbraai & Catering, a well-known Cape Town catering company, is celebrating over 35 years of providing the Western Cape with exceptional culinary experiences.

Cape Town, Western Cape May 26, 2025 – Monty’s, renowned for blending traditional South African spitbraai with modern innovation, continues to offer flavorful meals for various events, from intimate family gatherings to large corporate functions and film productions.

Established by Monty Montandon, a respected master butcher with over 45 years of experience, the company originated from Monty’s popular Sea Point butcher shop, known for its premium cuts and excellent service. His passion for food and community led to the creation of Monty’s Spitbraai, one of Cape Town’s pioneering spitbraai businesses. Monty’s vision was simple: to unite people around the braai, fostering enjoyment of good food and great company.

Carol Montandon, Monty’s wife, complemented his culinary talent with her creativity and kindness. Known as the “Queen of Spitbraai,” Carol brought family history to the table with her cherished recipes and homemade sauces. Her enthusiasm and dedication are reflected in every salad, canapé, and dessert served, with Carol continuing to personally oversee the preparation of each dish, ensuring the same care and diligence that has defined Monty’s for decades.

Two decades later, Monty’s sons, Athol and Jake Montandon, are upholding his legacy. Having grown up within the family business, the brothers proudly lead the company into a new era, becoming official partners at the age of 20. With over 20 years of combined practical experience, Athol and Jake remain actively involved in every function, preserving the integrity, hospitality, and exceptional service that embodied their father’s vision.
According to Jake Montandon, “Monty’s is more than just a catering company; it’s our family’s way of sharing joy through food. We are committed to making every experience truly special and feel privileged to be a part of our clients’ most treasured moments.”

Under their leadership, Monty’s has expanded its services to include corporate catering, specialized film catering, bar and waiter services, comprehensive event planning, and equipment rental. This all-inclusive approach ensures clients receive seamless, stress-free service, regardless of the occasion.

Monty’s is renowned not only for its delectable spitbraais but also for its consistent reliability, friendly service, and meticulous attention to detail, all supported by an experienced and well-trained staff. “Our team is like family,” Athol Montandon notes. “We have worked together for many years, and our dedication to quality remains unwavering. We are excited to meet you and are passionate about what we do.”

As Monty’s Famous Spitbraai & Catering looks to the future, its commitment to tradition remains steadfast. The Montandon family proudly serves Cape Town with the heartfelt motto “From our family to yours,” preserving a distinctively South African culinary experience while integrating a contemporary flair.
