Exceptional experience in South Croydon

“I have been going to the Barber Shop - Hamsey Green for a few years now. I absolutely love everything to do with the shop. The staff and owner are all very friendly from the second you open the door, they’re very warm and welcoming! They UNDERSTAND what you’re asking for specifically, and get it right every time!”

“One of the best places in London so far I have visited. Wow! They just shocked me with the way they handle customers despite the fact they are good hair cutters but the atmosphere is great and offering you coffee tea cold water. Thanks for being nice.”

“I had an incredible experience at El Patio Spanish Tapas Restaurant tonight! The staff made us feel truly special, and meeting them added a personal touch to our evening. The food was out of this world, especially the chicken – the best I've tasted in years, reminiscent of my time in Spain. My mum and I had a fantastic night out, and her enjoyment added to the memorable atmosphere. Fantastic disbaled access! Highly recommend! Harry Wales”

“Fantastic food, great atmosphere and lovely staff. Really good experience every time we come here”

“I have been going to Ozzy for many years and have always been really happy with his service. He always does the colour exactly how I like it. Definitely recommend!!”

“Amazing experience as always. Friendly, knowledgable and just all round great staff. They take their time to make sure you get the best possible haircut and make sure you leave happy!”

“The atmosphere at FILTR was great, the coffee (my oat milk latte) was very smooth and tasty, it is great sustainably sourced coffee. I tried their coconut matcha latte on another occasion and I think they do coffee the best (I felt their was not enough matcha itself in the drink, but this may be personal preference). Seating available inside and outside, which is great to sip your coffee when the sun is out! Incredibly friendly and welcoming staff, great customer service!”

“I tried Mei salon for the first time and was really impressed. First and foremost, you know when you are in good professional hands! And that’s exactly how I felt, Mei was very thorough and did a good job. My pedicure and manicure are beautiful! Thank you Mei, will come again!”

“It was my first visit to Vintage62, I was made to feel so welcome. Sam was excellent, thank you I will be back .”

“I recently had the pleasure of getting my hair cut at Salon Seven, and I must say their service is truly remarkable. One of the best things is that I never had to wait for my appointment, making the experience even more enjoyable. Maxine, my stylist, is not only incredibly nice and friendly but also has a magical touch. Her head massages during hair washes are so relaxing. What sets her apart is her knowledge about which hair cut suits best, and she works her magic to bring that vision to life. I'm delighted with the result!”

“Great experience wine tasting with my partner and some friends and family for our first wedding next year! Ryan and James were really friendly and there were options laid out for us ready to go when we arrived. Ryan led us through the tasting expertly and was able to answer all of our questions. We were able to purchase great red, rose, white and prosecco options for the big day. Would definitely recommend!”

“Excellent customer service. Cashier was very friendly, patient and helpful in helping us find what we were looking for.”

“Due to an error, our food was delayed and we were given a full refund plus free drinks and a croissant. The staff were very upset about the error and bent over backwards to compensate us. I will definitely visit again.”

“Very nice. Had an almond and apricot slice. Good coffee. The lady across from me was raving about it. Imported from India apparently”

“Well stocked mini-mart with amazing Turkish food. The absolute best thing is Fresh baklava! It's just superb (photo). They also sell fresh breads which are yum.”

“My son started Abbey Wood Grange Day Nursery at 8 months old, i was so nervous when I first started looking for nursery’s, so I could plan to return back to work. I viewed so many nursery’s in the area, Abbey Wood Grange day nursery had something over them all, for me it was the attention to detail & care from staff. On my viewing with Lisa she was so welcoming, enthusiastic and had a real sense of care. lisa knew all the children’s names when we entered the rooms. Staff was all friendly an engaged with all the children. Staff are all so friendly & welcoming, my son settled in really quickly and formed great bonds. He really loves being at nursery and gets all excited when we arrive. I get regular updates daily in his book from the day & updates on the tapestry app showing observations & his development. I honestly couldn't be more happier with the level of service from the nursery & staff at abbey wood. I know his well looked after, It really is a lovely nursery. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to put their baby or child into a nursery.”

“Tried a couple other Indian restaurants in the area and this one is by far the best! The food was incredible, staff are so friendly and the interior / atmosphere is really nice. This is going to be our go-to from now on!”

“Excellent service, well presented meals. Staff always friendly, always go the extra mile. Best in Seldsdon”

“I've only ever had my beard done here so can't comment on the haircuts. My facial hair is kept in tip top condition and I'm a happy repeat customer. The barbers in there are friendly and willing to chat. But something I really wanted to shout out was when I once saw a customer in there with mental disabilities. They didn't just accommodate him, but rather they were actively warm and friendly and tried to keep him engaged through his haircut. THAT'S when they won my permanent business. It gets really busy in here so you're best off either making an appointment or going in at off peak times. Also, there's a stamp card scheme (9th haircut is free).”

“I truly appreciate Millie and her team for the most amazing flower arrangements they made for my work events, the flowers are exactly how I wanted it. Everyone is very friendly in the shop and the flowers are very fresh and beautiful. (Look at the pictures, isn’t that gorgeous) Thank you for the efforts:)”

“Azis (The owner) and his team have always strived and delivered on giving me and my family a 5* dining experience here when we visit. Been a regular customer here for years. Simply the best curry house going!”

“First time @Ayat and loved it. Good was great, flavour dishes prepared with care. Interior looks great has it's own unique flair although music was to loud. Service was a bit lacking. We where seated promptly and our food came out in timely manner but the waitress didn't check on us at all (she was on her phone all the time we where there as we could see from our spot). We need to get up and ask her for another round of drinks as she wasn't paying any attention to us at all.And then she got our simple order for drinks wrong, we where the only costumers there so no distractions and it was quite early an a lazy Sunday. Hope that the service does improve as the food was delicious. Will come back to give it another chance for sure.”

“Delicious Food and very nice and friendly staffs. If you looking for a real south Indian food. Here we go this is the place for that "The Kerala".”

“Really friendly service and tasty food! Will definitely visit again.”

“I had the Sunday roast today and was genuinely impressed by the flavor. It was well-seasoned and, dare I say, even better than what I’ve had at Hawksmoor! I know that sounds bold, but it’s true. The service was fantastic as well; the staff were friendly and personable. The atmosphere was relaxing, making it a perfect spot to unwind. This place is truly a gem in Croydon, and I’ll definitely be coming back often!”

“I love coming and getting my nails done here - the staff are lovely, the service is great and my nails always look AMAZING! First time I came just for a quick gel hands polish and ended up staying for a pedicure as well because it was such a nice experience. Really great range of colours and services and the massage chairs for pedi are a bonus! Definitely the go-to place in South Croydon. 100% recommend!”

“I can’t get enough of this kebab takeaway! Their meat selection is not only incredibly delicious but also comes in truly generous portions. You’ll never leave hungry. What truly makes this place special, though, is the owner – a kind and authentic gentleman who never forgets to greet you with a friendly wave every time you pass by. It’s the perfect combination of mouthwatering food and a warm welcome.”

“Had a lovely egg, beans and chips today and my dad tried one of their new burgers and he is blown away and said "WOW, what a burger!' and it definitely exceeded his expectations! Chris and Charlotte who run the cafe are really friendly too, and always make you feel welcome”

“The only place I come to do my hair and leave satisfied. Very lovely workers always feel welcome, spirit and energy is always blessed.”

“Had my nails done yesterday, i forgot to ask his name but it's the gentleman with piercing in his left ear, he did my nails to PERFECTION! Amazing job! Thank you”
