Functions and catering
Black Ant Barn – a unique and relaxed venue
The Black Ant Barn is available exclusively for functions of more than 40 guests.
We can cater for up to 120 guests banquet style and 200 for cocktail functions.
There is no venue charge and Black Ant Gourmet Catering will fulfill all of your food and beverage requirements on-site.
Menus take into account seasonal produce and dietary requirements.
Black Ant Gourmet – owned and operated by Noosa local, Jodie Willliams and her Black Ant team – decided to expand their very busy off-site catering service to also include on-site catering at the Black Ant Barn at the Kin Kin General Store.
Just 30 minutes’ drive from Noosa, Cooroy and Gympie, the Black Ant Barn function space is perfect for guests who want soak-up the relaxed country atmosphere, while enjoying the company of friends, family and colleagues over a quality dining experience.
The alfresco undercover dining space overlooks stunning rural views and is your private space for the afternoon or evening. We have a neutral pallette of white and off-white vintage themes we provide in terms of styling, so you can add your final touches of colour and personalise.
Airbnb accommodation, cabins and camping with hot showers are available within walking distance. Affordable bus transport packages can be organised for larger groups with pick-up and drop off to the Noosa, Cooroy and Gympie regions.
Weddings
There are several options to exchange your vows in Kin Kin, including at Broadcroft Garden, our quaint local church, or even on-site in our open space garden area.
Mayan Luxe Villas
A more exclusive venue option is available at our Mayan Farm, Mayan Luxe Villas in Kin Kin. We offer in-house catering for guests and smaller, intimate group occasions.

Black Ant Gourmet Catering
Black Ant Gourmet Catering operates across the Sunshine Coast with a wide variety of catering options – finger food parties, spit roast functions, buffet theme dinners, formal sit-down dinners …
With 30 years experience chefing in Noosa and 15 years’ experience catering in the Noosa shire and beyond, no off-site job is too big or too small, from 30 people to 420 people stand-up or sit-down. We specialise in quality country weddings, birthdays and corporate functions.
We understand that being flexible with catering menu options is important. Not only do our clients have their own taste and style, but the ability to cater at different venues gives us an opportunity to alter menus to suit those venues and create the right ambience.
