Wimpy Menu With Updated Prices in South Africa 2026
Prices last checked: October 2026. Prices are taken from the official Wimpy South Africa online menu. Wimpy prices can differ slightly from one restaurant to the next, and delivery apps usually charge more than ordering in store or for collection, so always confirm the price at your specific branch before you order.
Wimpy is one of South Africa’s oldest and most loved restaurant brands. The first Wimpy opened in Durban in 1957, and the red-and-white restaurants have been part of local road trips, family outings and shopping-centre lunches ever since. Today the brand is owned by Famous Brands and runs several hundred restaurants across the country.
The Wimpy menu is much bigger than breakfast. Alongside the famous all-day breakfasts you will find burgers from the budget-friendly Big Savours range, hearty grills with ribs, steak and chicken, toasted sandwiches and the stacked Dagwood, a full kids’ menu, waffles and desserts, and a long drinks list built around the Famous Wimpy Coffee. On this page you will find the full Wimpy menu with updated prices in South Africa for 2026.

Nutrition Values About Wimpy in South Africa
Wimpy portions are generous, especially in the Big Eat and grill ranges, so it helps to know roughly what you are ordering. The figures below are approximate and vary with portion size, sauces and extras.
| Menu Item | Approximate Calories (kcal) |

Is Wimpy Halal?
Yes — Wimpy publishes a dedicated Halaal menu on its official website, and the Halaal range mirrors the Classic menu at the same prices. Many Wimpy outlets in South Africa are Halaal-certified, but certification is done per store, so not every Wimpy in the country is certified.
Before you order, check the certification at the specific branch you plan to visit, or look up the store on the Wimpy website. If Halaal status matters to you, confirming at your exact branch is the only way to be completely sure.
Location and Contact
Wimpy has several hundred restaurants across South Africa, in shopping centres, on main streets and at travel stops along the major routes, so there is almost always one nearby. Opening hours differ by store, with most restaurants opening early for breakfast and trading into the evening.

- Store Locator: Use the restaurant finder on the Wimpy website for your nearest store, its hours and its contact number
- Delivery: Order through Mr D Food or Uber Eats (delivery prices are higher than in-store prices)
