The 30 Best Chinese restaurant in Croydon

“Fabulous food, great service and a lovely atmosphere! We love this place, by far one of the best restaurants in South Croydon. Thank you :)”

“I come every weekend now, it is the best place to get a full English. Great staff and great food. Would recommend!”

“Best Chinese in Croydon. The food is always so nice, really good flavours, always hot and fresh and such good value for money. Portions are always ample. The staff are always so friendly.”

“We had the best meal for my birthday in the restaurant this week . Food was absolutely delicious , service was warm and friendly, love this restaurant. Thank you”

“First time ordering from 08 Express and I'm very impressed! Delivery was on time and the food is delicious. Very reasonably priced. Absolutely recommend and I will be ordering again without hesitation”

“The best Chinese I have ever ordered. Literally amazing, so fresh and so tasty, I don't think they even use MSG. Family run, cooked with love. This place is so good it is so dangerous. Love it!”

“The best Chinese take away in Croydon. The flavours are amazing, portion sizes match the price also. The customer service is great. Also you can pay by card unlike a lot of Chinese takeaways in the area. My go to is a Kong pow king prawn with special fried rice.”

“Highly recommended – a solid 10 out of 10 and definitely worth a try. It’s a long-missed taste of Asia. The laksa is outstanding, the stir-fried ho fun is full of wok hei, and the Malaysian white coffee is excellent. All that, and the prices are very reasonable too.”

“Food is delicious, especially the chicken and black bean sauce and Hong Kong style chicken. Really sweet lady who works in the store. Delivery is super fast. Originally we use to go to phoenix, but their food quality dropped, so we tried new star and have been happy ever since.”

“Great Indian restaurant! Love the friendly staff and the food is sooooo good.”

“This restaurant is more than twice the distance of my local one but so worth the extra travel time. The dim sum was exceptional, very high quality and well made. It was also very good value compared to the nearest biggest dim sum restaurant. An unexpected added bonus was the Saturday 1pm raffle which was good fun and very generous of the restaurant. Staff and service was great too. No dedicated parking is the only negative. I highly recommend and I will be returning again soon.”

“I recently dined at Crown & Pepper, and I must take a moment to highlight the exceptional service provided by one of the staff members. From the moment we were seated, Rohit went above and beyond to make our dining experience truly special. No matter how many questions we had about the menu, ingredients, or even recommendations, Rohit was always there with a friendly smile and a detailed answer. Their knowledge of the menu was impressive, and they patiently explained everything we needed to know, making sure we felt comfortable with our choices. Whether it was dietary restrictions, customization requests, or even just curious inquiries about the dishes, they were attentive and accommodating every step of the way. What really stood out was their genuine enthusiasm for making our experience enjoyable. They checked on us regularly, ensuring our needs were met without being overbearing. The level of care and attentiveness we received was truly above and beyond. It's rare to find someone so dedicated to customer satisfaction, and it made our meal all the more enjoyable. If you're looking for a dining experience where you feel truly taken care of, I highly recommend visiting crown & pepper and asking for Rohit. Their exceptional service made our visit memorable, and we will definitely be coming back thanks to their outstanding hospitality.”

“Great food but be prepared for the long waiting times or order hours in advance! Tried the mushroom fried rice which was amazing and much better than the stuff in Hongkers. Portions size is reasonable but slightly pricier compared to ones nearby.”

“It was Lunar New Year and so I decided I'd try Wei Dao and I took some fortune cookies with me too. The ladies working there were really nice. It was not busy on Friday night, I encourage people to dine in and ditch the takeaways. It's reasonably priced and had some fun pop tunes playing in the background.”

“Came home after 5 pints and absolutely smashed 5 chicken balls, half a Singapore vermicelli and half a mixed veg in oyster sauce, will undoubtedly smash the rest tomorrow lunch time. Absolutely banging”

“I have passed by this place several times without really noticing it, but was recommended by a friend. Excellent. Perfectly cooked rice and noodles, chicken satay one of the best I have ever tasted. Highly recommended”

“We went on a weekday, so I’m sure the vibe will be different at the weekend. We were the only ones there for a good 30-40 mins (7.15pm on a Thursday), but a few more people came in afterwards. Don’t let it deter you though - the food was phenomenal & the service was on point. The food is some of the best indo-chinese I’ve had!”

“We recently visited again after a gap of circa 3 yrs. We were very pleased with the back to usual high standards. Food was fabulous and so was the service. Truly surprised and would like to visit again. Parth our waiter was very friendly and efficient, THANK YOU. As for service charge that some ppl ate cribbing about, do note its purely optional but we decided to pay as both service and food quality were of very high standards. Thanks and look forward in dining again.”

“What a beautiful restaurant. Lovely food and very fast service.”

“We came here for the buffet. There was a lot of choice, the food was incredible and we left very full. Best thing about this place is that the food is cooked fresh to order. The staff were also very friendly and attentive. I love supporting local businesses like this and prefer this style of buffet to places like Jimmy's or JRC, so we definitely will be back”

“The person on the phone was very polite and mature I would highly recommend this place to everyone”

“Great service from Dans everytime. I usually order over the phone and pickup. I enjoy the sweet & sour chicken, egg fried rice and duck dices. One of my go-to takeaways. Definitely recommended!”

“We are occasional customers of the Blossom House and only ever use their take away service either with delivery or collect in person. However, the food is consistently great and normally the order is 100% correct. Last night we placed an order for delivery. A few minutes later the restaurant called to say that they had a credit showing on our account for a dish they had missed off our last order a couple of months ago. They asked if we now wanted that dish with the current order which we did but tbh I had completely forgotten about it. The restaurant could have easily not said anything about it and left it to me to remember. So they’ve restored their record of 100% accuracy and added complete honesty to the list of reasons to recommend them.”

“I have eaten here my whole life, I've never noticed any decline in food or service. Staff are always friendly, whether I pick up or order a delivery. I am a picky eater so I always have rather specific requests and they always accommodate my needs with a smile. I believe their food to be good value for money, my tummy has never not been satisfied eating here. Thank you Phoenix for delicious meals every time! :)”

“I have used the Chinese shop for a while now, at the beginning the food was ok however over the last 4 times I’ve ordered the food has been amazing I think maybe under new management. I will keep ordering from them as like I said the food stands have definitely gone up. A big thank you for all the amazing food you have delivered to me over the last 4 weeks”

“Easily the best Chinese around. Usually order the Special Fried Rice, Singapore Noodles, Beef and Black Bean and can honestly say it's the best I've had - anywhere. Also ordered a larger order recently with friends with a range of dishes also just as good. Order time usually around 45 - 60 mins but worth the wait. Highly, highly recommend!”

“Little Taiwan with its vibrancy and sense of welcoming soft and peaceful atmosphere in the middle of modern glass and concrete environment. I highly recommend its place for its character, service and of course food! We have ordered all vegetarian dishes and were well fed with beautifully served on a plate very tasty, authentic food! My son and myself have had an impression that we have been lucky to be a guest at some Taiwanese family home and were pampered with a well cooked home food! I promise you, you will not regret a minute when you decided to give BaoBao place a try! If you will order from them a delivery, you will get it all beautifully packed and a smiling cat will definitely cheer you up!”

“Very good prices and delicious food! I bought food from "Little Beijing" many times - not even once been disappointed. The staff it's very fair and square about what they can deliver or not, puting safety first of all and no quality compromises. Honestly speaking, it's a top one! And I've tried a lot before finding this one.”
