Papachinos Broadacres — Restaurant in Gauteng

Pictures Copyright ©️ blackjohannes. Pictures as is and was not edited by me or manipulated. Papachinos Broadacres is situated in the Broadacres Centre close to the Pick and Pay and Bp garage. They are loose standing. The architecture is stylish. There is enough parking available. What is immediately striking is the amazing attention to detail. Outside, on the walls, the decor, the chairs, tables. Nothing was left to chance. It gives you an immediate warm atmosphere. All Covid protocols were strictly enforced at the door. The bathrooms are immaculate. It is refreshing. From the beautiful style, mirrors, tiles and finishes, it creates an amazing sense of class, yet you feel warm and comfortable. There are a huge secure kiddies play area and what they surely get right is that although it is catering for kids, they make divide areas nicely so that all can enjoy the experience. I personally have a beef enchilada and the table had other small orders. So it was not a huge dining experience, but the service was good and efficient and management was friendly and inviting. I give it a 4 star for the immaculate restaurant and effort they put it to make it unique and great. I will definitely update the experience when having a proper dining experience , to hopefully upgraded it to a rare five start experience. I will try to update with more pictures to do justice to...

July 25, still a great place to take kids

Love Papachinos , the play area is the big attraction, great to take toddlers and kids. Definitely recommend the experience. Do watch the bees, there can be a huge amount of them around, the staff tries to distract them with bowls of plant material, but for someone with an allergy, keep a sharp eye out. The kids menu has a few popular options. Personally, wish they would offer food, as in ad some variety, would prefer smaller portions and have cucumber of veg and healthy food on the plate, then we can visit and buy food more often, chicken strips and chips may sell well, but one is is limited in how often kids should be having it. At least it is proper chicken. In accordance with their fun theme, dishing the plate like a face or a fish to make the tomato and veg/salad stuff appetising, would be such a boon. It is also really awesome that they have people watching the playground and assisting kids, so that the adults are able to enjoy a warm coffee or eat their food, just some people are obviously more intuitive and relates well, while others feel obligated to get in the kids space in an attempt to be helpful, when it suits us to do our own thing, but overall better than not having people around. So please support them, to keep everyone employed, and to keep the lovely play...
