Sorry,can't really help with the table but as for pans..well,unless you're backpacking(which,with a picnic table in tow,you're obviously not),then you may as well use a couple of cheapie household non-stick pans(..Wilkos/Tesco/Ikea etc)

We've had various "stacking" camping sets over the years but we've now ended up using cheapie household stuff....

I bought some cheap pans from Ikea. They're lightweight and most importanly, NON STICK! It's a must :)

Some of the folding tables with seats are pretty flimsy, especially the plastic ones. We've bought this one, which has bench seats. The table isn't massive, but it has 3 heights which make it ideal as an evening coffee table and for the kids. Folding table and padded bench seats

We treated ourselves to an Outwell "DAWSON" last year and it is a very nice piece of kit,We have a Coleman family cookset,and I won an out-of season bargain of an Outwell XL hard anodised cookset on ebay for under £4 which is very nice,we also pack a folding handle griddle pan and a budget M&S pancake pan for eggs and omelletes.

We picked up an aluminium picnic table last year from Argos (the type that folds up and has the seats attached), really cannot recommend them enough!

Be very careful folding it down, we had one of those and broke some plastic bits off on first use, whilst closing it down. We have now bought an aluminium version which has seen us through three years of camping and is still as good as new.

I love cooking in cast iron. It's heavy, but naturally non-stick. You can often find some good pieces in thrift stores.

And for camping, I LOVE my cast iron Dutch oven!!!

Another vote for the tesco foldling table and stools, we use it as intended on the lower height when in the bell tent for the children to eat at and use the table as part of the kitchen set up for longer stays and the stools with the regatta 6ft table and a folding chair for hubby.
