Editor’s Note

Last updated 11 Nov 2026

Our take: PaPa Cafe appears to be a mixed bag, with recurring themes of inconsistent service and fluctuating food portions, particularly for their ready-to-serve curries.

While some patrons praise the prata and Teh Tarik, the curries themselves, including the fish curry, are often described as diluted or lacking flavour.

A significant concern is the pricing of their curries and rice sets; an additional scoop of mutton can reportedly cost as much as the original set, leading to frustration over perceived stinginess and poor value.

The $14 mutton rice with chicken liver and one vegetable, for example, has been cited as overpriced given the portion size.

We'd advise sticking to the prata and masala dosa, which seem to be more consistently received.

Be prepared for potentially long wait times, even when the cafe is not busy, as delivery orders reportedly take precedence over dine-in customers.

Service can also be abrupt, with reports of staff being rude or unhelpful.

The lack of GST and service charge is a small positive, but it doesn't offset the core issues of value and service.

Best for a quick prata fix, but manage expectations for anything beyond that.
