Paputzis is a beloved Linden, Randburg restaurant that has operated as a Coffee Shop since 1997. After beautiful renovations and extensions, we now also offer Paputzis@Night. Our restaurant retains its informal Café style for casual daytime drinks and dining, including breakfasts, light lunches, coffee, homemade teatime favourites and, of course, wine. For Paputzis@Night, we have an à la carte menu featuring traditional and contemporary favourites, including lamb shank, oxtail, King prawns, duck, poké bowls, hamburgers, and blackboard specials.
The seating in our lush garden includes tranquil areas, a place for happy gatherings, a playground and a smokers’ corner. On our lovely Farmhouse stoep, there are three patio areas that can be enclosed if needed. For inside seating, there are three cosy rooms, including one with a fireplace.
We love to entertain for special occasions and celebrations, tailoring menus to the host’s/hostess's specific requirements.
We have a liquor licence and offer a variety of wines and beverages, but you are welcome to bring your own wine (for which we charge a minimal corkage fee).

    It's a wonderful place. The breakfast was superb, and so was the coffee. Just a superb experience. Warm and light and really tasteful. Must return soon

    A lovely Sunday lunch in a beautiful setting. Lucas was the perfect host, serving us with his perfect Afrikaans and super friendly manner. Highly recommended venue and menu!

    We normally enjoy visiting Paputzis. The upgrades on the veranda is great. But breakfast is a thumbs down for me. Stick with health breakfast or lunch.

    5 stars all round. We overstayed our lunch into dinner service, the staff and owner were welcoming and so flexible! Thank you for a great opportunity to catch up with old friends and not be made to feel like we were in the way. We will be back!
