Johannesburg

Linden

more than a year ago
What was once a peach farm became a heartland of Afrikaner conformity and crocheted doilies during the apartheid years. Today, Linden is being reinvented as a trendy suburb that pays ironic homage to its past.

Its distinctive main street, 4th Avenue, is a mix of proudly local, independent stores and cafés, both new and old. Favourites include hip cafe and coffee shop The Whippet and the Caribbean themed Brian Lara Rum Eatery at the corner of 4th Avenue and 7th Street, and Emma Chen’s super authentic northern Chinese noodle bar PRON and the local deli and cafe Cheese Gourmet at the corner of 3rd Avenue and 7th Street.
