The venue sits on Tsisperi Kantselebi Street, close to the centre of a city best known for Bagrati Cathedral and the Gelati Monastery complex, both UNESCO-listed sites a short drive away. According to its official website, Papavero is open every day from 10:00 to midnight, functioning across the day as a café, bar and restaurant rather than keeping fixed meal-service hours. Beyond the address, phone numbers and opening times, the restaurant’s own website offers little further detail, so this profile sticks closely to what is actually published and flags clearly where information is not available. ### The concept, the chef and the room Papavero describes itself simply as a “bar-restaurant”, a format common in Georgian regional cities that combines café-style all-day service with evening dining and drinks under one roof. The official website does not name a chef, does not describe a design concept, and does not publish photographs or text explaining the interior, cuisine style or atmosphere of the place. It links out to a third-party listing on restaurantguru.com, which suggests the restaurant is also indexed there for reviews, though that is an external site and not part of Papavero’s own published material. What can be said with confidence, because it is stated directly, is the location and the long daily opening window, which points to a venue designed to serve customers from mid-morning coffee through to late-night drinks and dinner, seven days a week, without a midweek closing day. *Image: Bar-Restaurant Papavero — A dark, low-contrast image showing indistinct curved steps, not clearly representing the property. — A dark, low-contrast image showing indistinct curved steps, not clearly representing the property.

Because gtour.ge only reports facts that are stated by a venue or safely known in general, no specific plates, wines or cocktails can be listed here. Travellers who want a current menu should contact Papavero directly by phone or email, or check its listing on restaurantguru.com, before planning a visit around particular dishes. - No dishes are named on the official site, so nothing can be recommended with confidence from Papavero’s own material. - As a bar-restaurant, it can be assumed to serve both food and drinks, but the specific offer (Georgian, international, or mixed) is not stated. - Visitors wanting a reliable answer on the current menu are best advised to ask by phone before arriving. ### Menus, hours and prices Papavero is open daily, Monday through Sunday, from 10:00 to 00:00, according to the hours published on its website. No seasonal variation, holiday closures or special events are mentioned. The website gives no price range, no sample menu, and no indication of whether reservations are required for busy periods. No information is given about set menus, tasting menus, breakfast or lunch specials, or whether the kitchen operates continuously through the stated opening hours or closes earlier than the bar. ### Reservations and practical details The restaurant lists two contact numbers, +995 598 654 576 and +995 593 456 545, along with an email address, restaurant.papavero@gmail.com. No online booking system is mentioned on the official site, so anyone wishing to reserve a table should call or email directly. No information is given about accepted payment methods, deposit policies, large-group bookings, or private events, so these should also be confirmed directly with the restaurant ahead of a visit. ### Location and getting there The address given is Tsisperi Kantselebi Street N5, Kutaisi. Kutaisi is the administrative centre of the Imereti region and Georgia’s second city by historical importance, sitting on the Rioni River roughly midway between Tbilisi and the Black Sea coast. It is served by Kutaisi International Airport, a budget-carrier hub that has become a common entry and exit point for travellers touring western Georgia, and by regular minibus (marshrutka) and train connections to Tbilisi, Batumi and other regional towns. Within the city, the restaurant’s street is in the general urban area rather than in the old bazaar or riverside tourist core, so visitors arriving by taxi or on foot from the centre should confirm the exact walking distance or taxi fare locally, since this is not stated by the restaurant itself. ### Good to know - Open every day of the week, including weekends and (as far as published) public holidays, from 10:00 to midnight. - Functions as a combined bar and restaurant rather than a single-sitting dinner venue. - Address: Tsisperi Kantselebi Street N5, Kutaisi, Imereti region. - Two phone numbers are published for calls or reservations. - Contactable by email at restaurant.papavero@gmail.com. - No menu, price list or chef information is published on the official website. - The restaurant is also listed on restaurantguru.com, an independent review platform, for those seeking additional feedback. - Kutaisi International Airport and the city’s train and bus links make the restaurant reachable as part of a wider Imereti itinerary, including Bagrati Cathedral and Gelati Monastery. ### Questions travellers ask #### Does Papavero serve food all day or only in the evening? The official website states opening hours of 10:00 to 00:00 every day but does not separate these into breakfast, lunch and dinner service, so it should be treated as open across the day rather than restricted to set mealtimes. Anyone wanting to confirm kitchen hours specifically should call ahead. #### Is there a published menu for Papavero? No, the restaurant’s own website does not include a menu, dish names or prices. Prospective visitors should contact the restaurant directly by phone or email, or look at its page on restaurantguru.com, for more current details. #### Do I need to book a table in advance? The website does not state a reservation policy. Given that no booking platform is mentioned, the only route to reserving ahead is to call one of the two published phone numbers or send an email. #### How do I get to Papavero from Kutaisi city centre or the airport? The restaurant is on Tsisperi Kantselebi Street in Kutaisi. The city is linked to the rest of Georgia by Kutaisi International Airport and by regular bus and train services, but the restaurant’s website gives no walking distances or transport advice from the centre or the airport, so travellers should check this locally, for instance with a taxi driver or their accommodation. #### Is Papavero suitable for a quick coffee as well as a full dinner? Because it is described as a bar-restaurant with a long, uninterrupted daily opening window from 10:00 to midnight, it appears set up to cover everything from a daytime coffee or drink to an evening meal, though the exact food and drink offer is not detailed on the official site. ### Sources - [Bar-Restaurant Papavero — official website (restaurantpapavero.ge)](https://www.restaurantpapavero.ge/home) - [Bar-Restaurant Papavero: About Us](https://www.restaurantpapavero.ge/about-us/) *Profiled in depth by the GTour desk on 28 October 2026 from the property’s official website; photographs are the property’s own, from its official website, credited under each image.
