Papachinos is a family restaurant with a particularly broad menu. The Fourways branch serves breakfast, toasted sandwiches, wraps, pizza, pasta, burgers, grills, seafood and sushi, plus a dedicated children’s range. That choice is useful for a mixed group, although it can make price comparison harder than at a restaurant built around one cuisine.
This guide uses Papachinos Fourways delivery prices reviewed on 28 September 2026. Breakfast dishes cost about R140 to R215, pizzas R155 to R250, pasta R185 to R360, burgers R195 to R240, and major grill dishes R200 to R485. Branch, dine-in and delivery prices may differ, while platform fees are added separately.
Papachinos prices at a glance
| Menu section | Current range | Typical order |
|---|---|---|
| Breakfast | R140 to R215 | One plated breakfast |
| Toastinos | R120 to R150 | One toasted light meal |
| Wraps | R215 to R220 | One full wrap |
| Small plates | R150 to R170 | Starter or light meal |
| Pizza | R155 to R250 | One full pizza |
| Pasta | R185 to R360 | One pasta main |
| Burgers | R195 to R240 | Burger meal |
| Steak and ribs | R340 to R485 | One grill main |
| Fish and seafood | R225 to R355 | One main |
| Sushi examples | R95 to R240 | Hand roll or multi-piece portion |
| Kids meals | R70 to R120 | One child’s meal |
| Desserts | R105 to R115 | One adult dessert |
The menu is large enough that a single average price is not very useful. A parent ordering a child’s meal and a toasted sandwich will spend far less than a diner choosing ribs, seafood pasta and dessert. The sections below keep item sizes and ingredients beside the prices so that the numbers have context.
Breakfast menu prices
| Breakfast | Price |
|---|---|
| French toast with maple syrup and crispy bacon | R140 |
| Sunrise breakfast | R150 |
| Porto Bello omelette | R165 |
| Don Triathlete | R175 |
| Bene omelette | R175 |
| Steak, egg and chips | R215 |
French toast is the least expensive reviewed breakfast at R140. It uses brioche with vanilla crema, maple syrup and bacon, so it is a sweet and rich choice. The R150 Sunrise includes two eggs, bacon, pork sausage, grilled tomato and onions. It gives the clearest traditional breakfast combination for only R10 more.
The Porto Bello omelette costs R165 and contains ham, mushrooms, Cheddar and mozzarella. The Bene omelette is R175 with savoury mince, onion, cheese and mushrooms. Don Triathlete also costs R175 but takes a different direction: granola, thick yoghurt, papaya, seasonal fruit, berries, honey, cinnamon and almond flakes.
Steak, egg and chips is R215. It combines a 200 g rump steak with two eggs, chips, toast, tomato and onions. It is the most substantial reviewed breakfast and could suit someone who wants one large meal rather than breakfast followed by lunch.
Breakfast ingredients bring several common allergens. Brioche and toast contain gluten, crema and cheese contain dairy, eggs are central to many dishes, and Don Triathlete contains almonds. Ask about substitutions and shared preparation when an allergy is involved.
Toastinos and light meals
| Toastino | Price |
|---|---|
| Ham, cheese and tomato | R120 |
| Roasted chicken mayonnaise | R120 |
| Roasted chicken mayonnaise and bacon | R140 |
| Bacon, egg and cheese | R150 |
| Bacon, avocado and halloumi | R150 |
The two R120 toastinos are among the lowest priced adult meals on the current menu. Adding bacon to the chicken mayonnaise version raises it by R20. Bacon, egg and cheese or bacon, avocado and halloumi cost R150.
Signature light meals cost more. Steak Supremo is R225 with rump steak, halloumi, onions, tomato, mushrooms and rocket on ciabatta. Porto Prego is R215 and combines beef, two eggs, onions and prego sauce on ciabatta. A Bianco focaccia with mozzarella, feta and sun-dried tomato is R150.
A toastino works for a smaller appetite or early lunch, while the steak and prego options are closer to full mains. Delivery can soften toast and ciabatta, so collection or dine-in will usually preserve texture better.
Wraps and nachos
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Original nachos | R175 |
| Beef bolognese nachos | R205 |
| Spicy chicken nachos | R205 |
| Crunchy Thai wrap | R215 |
| Chicken Caesar wrap | R215 |
| Louisiana wrap | R220 |
| Panko prawn wrap | R220 |
The Louisiana wrap has crispy chicken, tomato, peppers, avocado, cucumber, greens and cheese with chilli mayonnaise. The panko prawn wrap combines fried prawns, avocado, slaw and teriyaki sesame dressing. Both cost R220.
The R215 Crunchy Thai wrap contains grilled chicken, peanut satay, bean sprouts, cashews, greens and slaw. The Chicken Caesar wrap is also R215 and includes chicken, anchovies, Parmesan, croutons, bacon, lettuce and Caesar dressing.
These descriptions matter for allergies. The Thai wrap has peanut and cashew, the prawn wrap has shellfish and sesame, and the Caesar contains fish, dairy, egg and gluten. A wrap may look simple on the menu while containing several sauces and garnishes.
Small plates
| Small plate | Price |
|---|---|
| Flamed wings | R150 |
| Halloumi Dechy | R150 |
| Panko chicken | R150 |
| Livers Diablo | R170 |
| Trinchado | R170 |
| Zesto calamari | R170 |
Small plates occupy a narrow R150 to R170 range. Flamed wings, halloumi and panko chicken share the lower price. Chicken livers, beef trinchado and calamari cost R170.
For two diners, one plate can serve as a starter. For a group of four, two or three plates give more variety. Livers and trinchado include sauce and toasted ciabatta, while the calamari is served on rice. Those additions can make them more filling than the label “small plate” suggests.
Pizza menu prices
| Pizza | Price |
|---|---|
| Classic Margarita | R155 |
| Regina | R175 |
| Honolulu | R180 |
| Greco | R195 |
| Paesano’s | R195 |
| Mexicana | R200 |
| Quattro Stagiono | R200 |
| La Nonna | R200 |
| Vegetariano | R200 |
| Sticky Chicken | R205 |
| Mama Christo | R215 |
| Tostino | R215 |
| Del Porto | R215 |
| Papa Georgio | R220 |
| Honey Pepperoni | R220 |
| Vegan Napoli | R225 |
| El Ribbo | R225 |
| La Baretta | R230 |
| Atlantico | R250 |
The R155 Margarita is the useful baseline: tomato, mozzarella and herbs. Regina adds ham and mushrooms for R175, while Honolulu adds ham and pineapple for R180. The difference between the basic pizza and many heavily topped choices is only R40 to R75.
Greco and Paesano’s both cost R195 and use bacon, feta and avocado in different combinations. Mexicana, Quattro Stagiono, La Nonna and Vegetariano are R200. Vegetariano has mushrooms, olives, onions, peppers, halloumi, rocket and pesto.
Chicken pizzas sit around R205 to R215. Sticky Chicken costs R205, while Mama Christo and Tostino are R215. Papa Georgio is R220 with roast lamb, feta and sun-dried tomatoes. El Ribbo costs R225 with BBQ pork, chorizo, peppers and feta.
Atlantico is the highest reviewed pizza at R250 because it carries prawns, mussels and calamari in a creamy garlic sauce. It is unsuitable for a shellfish allergy and will travel differently from a simple Margarita because seafood and sauce add moisture.
The Vegan Napoli costs R225 with plant-based mince and plant-based mozzarella. It is R70 more than the Margarita, reflecting the specialist toppings. Diners following a strict vegan diet should still ask about the base, sauces and shared oven handling.
Pasta prices
| Pasta | Price |
|---|---|
| Basil aglio olio | R185 |
| Arrabiata | R195 |
| Alfredo | R215 |
| Fegati di pollo | R215 |
| Lasagne di grano | R220 |
| Bolognese | R220 |
| Tia Maria | R225 |
| Beef di tutto | R250 |
| Slow cooked lamb | R250 |
| Pesca di mare | R360 |
Basil aglio olio is the lowest priced pasta at R185, with pesto, butter, Parmesan and mushrooms. Arrabiata is R195 and uses a tomato base with olives, chilli and garlic. Both are below R200, although the pesto dish may contain nuts and dairy.
Alfredo and chicken-liver Fegati di Pollo cost R215. Lasagne and bolognese are R220, while Tia Maria is R225 with chicken in a creamy pepper and spinach sauce. Beef di Tutto and slow-cooked lamb reach R250.
Pesca di Mare is R360, a large jump from the rest of the section. Its prawns, calamari and mussels in a creamy white-wine garlic sauce account for the premium. The difference from Arrabiata is R165, so seafood pasta changes the meal budget significantly.
Burger menu prices
| Burger | Price |
|---|---|
| Original Papas Burger | R195 |
| Naked Burger | R195 |
| Ranch Chicken Burger | R195 |
| Luciano Burger | R205 |
| Rockefeller Burger | R215 |
| Papa’s Vegan Burger | R220 |
| Super Mario loaded burger | R220 |
| Macho Nacho loaded burger | R220 |
| Cheezy loaded burger | R220 |
| Da Boss Burger | R240 |
The Original, Naked and Ranch Chicken burgers all cost R195. The Naked Burger has no bun and uses avocado, mushrooms and zucchini strings around the patty. It can reduce bread but is not automatically low calorie because sauces and fried toppings remain.
Luciano costs R205 with bacon, egg and Cheddar. Rockefeller is R215 with bacon and blue-cheese sauce. Three loaded burgers cost R220 and come with loaded fries, making them richer than the standard range.
Da Boss is R240 and uses a double beef patty with Cheddar, mozzarella and cheese sauce. Papa’s Vegan Burger is R220 with a plant-based patty, avocado, vegetables and sesame dressing. Ask whether sides and sauces are prepared separately if strict vegan handling is required.
Steaks, ribs and traditional grills
| Grill | Price |
|---|---|
| Tomahawk pork chop | R290 |
| Rump, 350 g | R340 |
| Fillet, 200 g | R345 |
| Lamb chops | R380 |
| T-bone, 600 g | R420 |
| Pork ribs | R465 |
| Beef ribs | R485 |
The 350 g rump is R340 and the 200 g fillet R345. Their near-identical prices show why grams alone are not the whole comparison. Fillet commands a premium for tenderness, while rump provides more weight and a firmer beef flavour.
The 600 g T-bone costs R420, but its bone forms part of the listed weight. Pork ribs are R465 and beef ribs R485. These are among the most expensive single mains on the menu, so check whether sides are included in the selected listing before adding extras.
The tomahawk pork chop is R290 with honey mustard sauce. Lamb chops cost R380. Pork, beef and lamb choices make this section unsuitable for diners who need a halal menu unless the branch can give clear certification and preparation information.
Chicken, fish and combination meals
| Main | Price |
|---|---|
| Chicken Maestro | R200 |
| Pollo Rosso | R225 |
| Cafe fish and chips | R225 |
| Pollo Parmigiano | R240 |
| Calamari Gusto | R280 |
| Flame-grilled spatchcock chicken | R290 |
| Kingklip Pescatore | R335 |
| Papa’s Paella | R355 |
| Ribs and wings combo | R380 |
| Half chicken and ribs combo | R380 |
| Hake and calamari combo | R380 |
Chicken Maestro is R200 with fried chicken strips, salad and chips. Pollo Rosso costs R225 with three grilled chicken breasts, avocado, Greek salad and tzatziki. Pollo Parmigiano is R240, while a full spatchcock chicken is R290.
Fish and chips starts this seafood group at R225. Calamari is R280, a 300 g kingklip fillet R335 and paella R355. Paella contains chicken, pork chorizo, prawns, calamari and mussels, so it combines several proteins and several potential allergens.
All three combination meals are R380 and include two house sides. The ribs-and-wings and chicken-and-ribs options suit meat eaters; hake and calamari is the seafood choice. Selecting included sides carefully avoids paying another R50 for an unnecessary extra.
Sauces and sides
Black pepper, tangy cheese, creamy garlic, mushroom and herb, creamy prego and blue-cheese sauces each cost R45. Chips, creamy spinach, roasted vegetables, Parmesan mash, rice, butternut and pumpkin, Greek salad and baked potato each cost R50.
Two sides add R100 and two sauces add R90. That can turn a R340 rump into a R530 order before a drink. Check what is already included with the main and use extras to fill a real gap rather than adding them automatically.
Sushi prices
| Sushi item | Price |
|---|---|
| Vegetable hand roll | R95 |
| Salmon or prawn hand roll | R110 |
| Salmon or prawn nigiri, 3 pieces | R110 |
| Edamame beans | R110 |
| Prawn tempura, 4 pieces | R115 |
| Vegetable sandwich, 8 pieces | R120 |
| Seared salmon nigiri, 3 pieces | R140 |
| Mini bao buns, 3 pieces | R140 |
| Salmon or prawn California roll, 8 pieces | R160 |
| Rainbow roll, 8 pieces | R175 |
| Reloaded or Papa Salmon roll, 8 pieces | R215 |
| 4 x 4 combos | R220 to R225 |
| Rock shrimp tempura roll, 8 pieces | R240 |
A single hand roll costs R95 to R110 and works as a snack or addition, not a large meal. Eight-piece standard rolls are around R160 to R175, while elaborate reloaded rolls reach R215 to R240.
Four-piece prawn tempura is R115 and six pieces R160. The extra two pieces cost R45, making the six-piece portion slightly cheaper per piece. The two 4 x 4 combinations cost R220 or R225 and mix four pieces of one style with four of another.
Raw fish and shellfish require careful handling. Diners with allergies or medical reasons to avoid raw seafood should ask about cooked choices, shared equipment and sauce ingredients before ordering.
Children’s menu prices
| Bambino meal | Price |
|---|---|
| Toasted cheese fingers and fries | R70 |
| Mac and cheese | R80 |
| Burger and fries | R85 |
| Chicken crispers and fries | R85 |
| Spaghetti bolognese | R85 |
| Kids Alfredo | R85 |
| Mince volcano | R85 |
| Hot dog and fries | R90 |
| Fish fingers and fries | R95 |
| Bambino pizza with two toppings | R110 |
| Riblets and fries | R110 |
| Calamari and fries | R120 |
The children’s range starts at R70 and most choices sit between R80 and R95. A child’s burger, chicken strips, bolognese, Alfredo or mince and mash costs R85. Pizza and riblets are R110, while calamari is R120.
Junior desserts cost R70 for ice cream with chocolate sauce, R75 for brownie with ice cream and R105 for a waffle with ice cream and Bar One sauce. A child’s R85 meal plus a R75 dessert totals R160 before a drink and fees.
Adult desserts
Chocolate brownies and Menta Azteca peppermint tart cost R105. Malva pudding is R110, while Rocky Road is R115. The dessert range is narrow, so the decision depends more on flavour than price.
Two desserts add R210 to R230 to the bill. Sharing one portion can be enough after pizza, pasta or ribs. Dairy, gluten, egg and nuts may appear in desserts, sauces or garnishes, so confirm ingredients for an allergy.
How much should two adults budget?
A lower-cost order could use a Margarita pizza at R155, Arrabiata pasta at R195 and one shared dessert at R105. The food subtotal is R455. This works when two people are comfortable sharing both mains.
A common mid-range order might include panko chicken at R150, two burgers at R195 each and one dessert at R110. That totals R650 before drinks and platform charges.
A grill dinner with trinchado at R170, rump at R340, Pollo Parmigiano at R240 and two R50 sides comes to R850. Adding two sauces raises it to R940.
A seafood meal with calamari at R170, kingklip at R335, paella at R355 and Rocky Road at R115 totals R975. Two seafood pastas alone cost R720, showing how premium proteins shift the budget.
A sensible planning range is about R250 to R400 per adult for one main and a share of an extra. Steak, ribs, seafood, drinks and dessert can move the figure beyond R500 per person.
Budgeting for a family
Two adults sharing a R200 pizza and R220 pasta, with two R85 children’s meals, produce a R590 food total. Adding two junior desserts at R75 each brings it to R740 before drinks and fees.
Another family plan could use two R195 burgers, a R110 Bambino pizza, an R80 mac and cheese and one R105 adult dessert to share. That totals R685. Extra sides may be unnecessary because burger and children’s meals often include fries.
For larger families, pizza can be easier to share than separate grills. Check pizza size and appetite rather than assuming one pizza feeds a set number of people. Teenagers may need an adult main, while younger children may leave part of a kids portion.
Vegetarian and vegan choices
Vegetarian choices include Margarita and Vegetariano pizza, Arrabiata, basil pasta, original nachos, vegetable sushi and several sides. The Vegan Napoli pizza and Papa’s Vegan Burger are explicitly plant based in their descriptions.
A Vegan Napoli at R225 plus roasted vegetables at R50 totals R275. A Vegetariano pizza is R200, while Arrabiata pasta is R195. These are full adult mains rather than token side dishes.
Strict vegan diners should confirm bases, sauces, pesto and frying oil. A plant-based patty or cheese does not prove that every component or preparation surface is free from animal products.
Delivery and branch differences
The prices in this article belong to the Fourways delivery menu. Papachinos has more than one branch, and another location can use different prices, hours or item availability. Dine-in prices may also differ from the app.
Delivery platforms can add service, delivery, small-order and other fees. A discount may reduce the item subtotal while fees raise the final payment. Enter the correct address and review the complete checkout before placing an order.
Pizza, pasta, burgers and sauced mains usually travel more reliably than crisp calamari, fries or toast. Collection reduces travel time. Requesting sauce separately can preserve texture when that option is available.
Location and practical notes
The reviewed branch is Papachinos Fourways near The Straight and Witkoppen Road in the Pine Slopes area of Johannesburg. It is designed as a family-friendly restaurant and has a broad menu suited to groups.
Published platform hours can differ from restaurant service hours and may change on public holidays. A busy kitchen can pause delivery before closing time. Confirm the current schedule and booking arrangements directly when planning a visit.

Final ordering advice
Papachinos works well for a group because one person can order sushi while another chooses pizza, pasta or a grill. Start by agreeing on the budget and whether dishes will be shared. Then check what sides are already included before adding extras.
For a controlled bill, focus on toastinos, pizza, pasta or standard burgers and share one starter. For a special meal, steak, ribs and seafood provide more choice but can double the price of a simple main. Families should compare the R70 to R120 children’s menu with adult portions before ordering.
Use these prices as a current Fourways reference. Confirm the branch, item options and final checkout total on the day, especially when ordering delivery or relying on a promotion.
