What UrbanPadstal Is
UrbanPadstal started with one simple idea:
create a space where food, creativity, and culture meet in a way that feels truly us.
A place where we could bring together the flavours we love, the brands we admire, and the ideas we've always wanted to explore.
It's not a farmstall.
It's not a traditional padstal.
It's a padstal reimagined for the modern
urban explorer
Because in the city, we don't pull over for biltong and roosterkoek.
We pull over for good coffee, good food and good energy.
UrbanPadstal is our take on that feeling - curated, crafted, and full of delicious surprises.
Here you'll find:
Unique pantry essentials, frozen meals, ice cream, wines, snacks and kawaii goodies that spark joy. Things you can grab on the go, or linger over when you need a moment.
We work with incredible local makers, we experiment with flavours, and we create small-batch products for people who care about what they eat.
UrbanPadstal is a lifestyle, for people who love food, culture and discovery
For people who want a little taste of Obento creativity in their everyday life.
For people who want something unique, something crafted, something with heart.
So no - this isn't your ouma's padstal.
This is your urban padstal
Where curiosity is welcome, taste is celebrated, and every visit feels like a little escape.
Where Obento's Creativity Meets Your Everyday.
Obento Ramen Bar is where our culinary journey began, a space built on craft, culture, and obsessive attention to flavour.
UrbanPadstal is the next chapter: a lifestyle store where we expand that creativity into your daily life.
Here, we experiment with:
-
new food concepts
-
small-batch products
-
easy meals
-
desserts
-
collaborations with local makers
-
curated Asian-inspired goods
-
gourmet catering
-
and the everyday joys that didn’t fit into the restaurant format
If Obento is where Joburg goes for flavour, UrbanPadstal is where Joburg goes for daily joy.
