This place has a very chilled environment. Its serene. A place to go enjoy a kraft beer with friends. Kids will love this place plenty of entertainment for them and chilminders. Prices are very very reasonable and the food is great. This is my new spot!!!
Such a stunning lunch!!! Great to be outside, divine pizzas and the burger was fresh and hearty!!! Everyone finished their meal. Great place for kids and the staff was superb. Very chilled vibe. Well done guys!!!!
Had a fantastic day at AJs today, thanks to Voyk and the team. Everything you could want for a family venue, plenty of "old school" play for the kiddies, good beer and wine and the food is outstanding. Regina pizza was very nice and a couple of people at our table had the Argentina Rump steak, it was out of this world. In short an excellent family venue with great staff and amazing food. Well done.
Enjoyed a Friday night dinner with friends. Banting pizza base was excellent v and the regular pizzas were pretty good. Generous toppings. Crumbed chicken strips for the kids were better than the grilled. Lovely hot chocolate surprise the kids enjoyed melting the chocolate stick in the milk. unpretentious and simple but tasty fare. Lots of space for older kids to run around as well as a jungle gym for little kids.
If you’re looking for a family restaurant that caters for kids and adults then AJs is the place. We have never been disappointed. The pizzas we’ve had have always been full of flavour and on Wednesday’s they are only around R75 per pizza. We love the flame grilled chicken and for those that love ribs they are also super delicious. In the day, you can sit outside, relax, while your kids run freely playing around. They have child minders and lots of entertainment. It is also fenced off so no worries that your kids might get lost.
Beautiful space for Kids ... I enjoyed time with my family today ... excellent space for kids ... The child minders are so helpful and we received great service from the waiters .. The owner was so friendly made us feel at home .
I absolutely enjoyed my burger ,my sisters had pizza and fish which I know they enjoyed.
Thank you for your hospitality🙋🏽♀️👌🏻
The food is good and hearty. Music playing in the background and the kids are entertaining themselves with the jumping castles and sports equipment.
In the area, so decided to investigate. The friendly car park guard at first indicated that there was no space in the parking lot but then assisted me in reversing into a space I pointed out to him. Walking into the entertainment area I was amazed at how many young parents with (well behaved) children were outside the club house. Sadly, the bowling greens (like so many in Jhb) no longer appear to be functional.
The club house is a bit run down but the staff friendly and attentive, with a very hands on and alert manager. Always a good sign.
The pizzas smelt and looked delicious, but as I had already eaten elsewhere I shall have to return to sample them. Prices of food and drinks are very reasonable. Looks like a good find.
Good pizza, and great environment for kids. Child minders were the best, very engaged. Food took long, but proprietor was very apologetic, and made amends! Burgers were also good. Could have a more extensive list.
Great venue for a relaxed Sunday lunch. Entertainment for the kids so parents can take it easy. Good service from friendly waiters. The pizza is a must, crispy base and full of flavour. The prices are super reasonable.
I was so starved arriving here that when the food was placed on the table I didn't even think about taking pictures. I sampled amazing lamb but decided to go with the pizza. Always pleasant😃 however I feel like it's always missing something. Till I put my fingers on what that is I'm happy to keep coming back to enjoy the wonderful atmosphere. 💋
AJs is a gem for anyone with young kiddies. The jungle gyms, jumping castle, child minders and big open fields make this a great venue for parents to relax with wine or a draught beer, while the kids get rid of some excess energy.
I have only ever ordered pizzas, so I can't comment on the rest of the menu. But the pizzas are excellent, and I haven't heard any complaints about the rest.
Service can be a little slow, especially with larger tables, but we have never had enough reason to complain.
I was invited to a children's birthday party. We were welcomed by one of the owners, Voyk, with a big smile, and I almost felt like I was welcomed into somebody's home. The photos do absolutely no justice to the volume of food served in the platters. The fruit platter was crisp and cold with only the tastiest fruits. The ribs were succulent, and the meat just fell off the bone. The basting was not too sweet, and the volume was spot on. The chicken strips were perfectly fried and still juicy inside, I often find chicken breast dry, but these were amazing. The pregos were well balanced with fresh buns and a generous piece of chicken. The children were constantly entertained with lots to do. The kiddies' play area is clean and well maintained. The slip and slide was one of the highlights for our kids. There was a magic show that the kids loved. There's also painting, for R100 the children can choose a canvas to paint and take home. Overall, it was an amazing day, enjoyed by all, and I can't wait to go back.
Lovely afternoon spent here. I also have to agree that the personal greeting and engagement with the owner adds a special touch.
The food was delicious, they had a big group that they were busy with so the food came rather late but it was worth the wait. The waiters are good and the facilities are 100% great for kids with lots to do for them.
So it happened that we were suddenly alone on Xmas day and we decided to visit AJ's for lunch. What a spread! Between Vojk who served with personal flair and Candice who brought out the desserts and Nelson who diligently managed the table rotations, we experienced one of the best lunches whilst the lil'un was enjoying the slippy-slide and sunshine. The venue is on the repurposed bowling ground which gives the kiddies some space to exercise their kicks (under the watchful eyes of the child minder) and you can enjoy the hospitality while the excellent food is being served by Angelique and the others. I'm now a regular.
Edit November 2023:
We visited today for a quick lunch and I noticed that there is a lot of construction and stuff going on. It isn't completed yet but I can't wait to see the final result and I will remain one of their regular customers.
Just want to share that I hadnt been here in years until this past Sunday. My son had his 2nd birthday party here and is now 7. The changes are incredible. It was already an awesome venue back then! We ordered the blue cheese burger and seafood snack platter. The prawn, calamari and everything really was amazing! I was pleased to hear the owner is the same sweet guy I met years ago as well. Wow the food is good, I don't often rave about seafood or even order it because it's never good so far from the ocean😂 but wow! We sat on the deck over looking the field and our awesome waiter brought my son an airplane to throw around. He was great, unfortunately can't remember his name though. My partner and I were very full because we couldn't stop eating the food. Thank you so much!
Delicious food, excellent service. Chield play area.lamb on spit is best i ever had. Must try this place!

Delicious smoked chicken and veg meal. Highly recommend for events, birthdays or just for a family lunch out. Highly recommend AJ’s in the Park.
The venue has been upgraded to such an amazing level.
The food is fantastic- especially the ribs.
Can't wait for the Paddle courts to open.
What a wonderful experience!
We hosted our 1-year old's first birthday at AJ's last Saturday and couldn't have been happier!
The owner Voik went above and beyond to ensure that our day was perfect, despite recent staff changes, the large number of guests that we invited and the 2 other functions that were being held concurrently... not an easy task for an owner by any means, but Voik ensured that the day was an absolute success and everyone had a great time. He was also extremely generous with platter organisation and pricing to fit our budget, and made contingency plans in case the weather turned bad.
I would highly recommend AJ's for anyone wanting to host an outdoor children's party that is safe and secure, feels like home away from home and allows the kids to have good old-fashioned fun kicking a ball around a field or bouncing on a jumping castle. Ample playground equipment and slides/swings etc. are also available for use, as well as a painting station for the older children.
All in all, we will most certainly be back, probably to host future parties as well.
Thanks also to all of the waiters and waitresses for their efficienct service on the day.
We went there for the first time on Sunday,my sister and our kids,l must say wow the place has a peaceful aura,the owner is so welcoming and the waiters did great,top it all the food was delicious,we will be definitely going back soon,taking more people there,family friendly place..
AJ’s has aways been a favorite, their revamp has taken it up a huge notch!! Calamari was exceptional, fish & chips awesome, burgers great!
