WILLIAMS RESERVE

Public BBQ

Williams Reserve emerges as an unexpectedly well-appointed barbecue destination amid Richmond's bustling Victoria Street corridor. The compact park maximises every square metre with two free electric BBQs positioned strategically away from the children's play area, creating distinct zones for cooking and family entertainment. Substantial shade trees provide natural cooling for barbecue sessions, while abundant bench seating accommodates larger gatherings around the cooking facilities. The reserve's thoughtful design places barbecue equipment alongside proper rubbish bins and water fountains, eliminating the usual logistical headaches of outdoor cooking. Parents particularly appreciate the adjacent café, which offers the luxury of barista coffee while tending the barbecue and supervising children. Despite its proximity to busy roads, the park's self-contained layout and lush green spaces create a surprisingly peaceful atmosphere for weekend barbecues. The combination of practical amenities and urban convenience makes this compact reserve punch well above its weight for spontaneous family cookouts.
