{{Orphan|date=January 2013}}Paprin's Restaurant was an eating establishment located at 61st Street and 60-19^[1] Roosevelt Avenue in Woodside, New York. It was enlarged in December 1937. After expansion the eatery fronted Roosevelt Avenue for seventy-five feet and seated 1,000 people. Its ballroom and banquet hall had a capacity of 500 persons.^[1]

In June 1938 the ceiling above the oval bar at Paprin's Restaurant fell in while a singer performed, with forty patrons standing at the bar. Seven people were slightly injured but most of the customers were unhurt. A noticeable sagging of the ceiling, prior to its collapse, was fortuitous, enabling many in the crowd to escape without injury.^[2]

Queens College Alumni Association met at Paprin's Restaurant in September 1950. Joseph I. Fishman became the new Queens president when the association held its third annual election of officers.^[3]
