On the go in Croydon

“My second tattoo from this studio. Very happy with the detail to hygiene and extremely happy with my tattoo. Price very good as well. Will only use this studio for the next one I get.”

“Ive been to this wee local pub a few times, always friendly and good banter! Its nice to get away from the hussle an bussle of the high street of croydon tho your only just around the corner.. wee places like this are becoming very rare and in time will eventually be pushed out by other big clubs/pubs doing student nights and cheap drinks night, this pub seems to have a loyal community following and long may it last! Ill definitely be back.”

“This is the only place I will go for my spares they owners are very accommodating very helpful and very friendly ❤”

“Best chips I’ve had down south - proper chippy chips. Gentleman was very nice and welcoming, think I was the last guy in as they were closing. 10/10.”

“I really enjoyed my shopping experience. I got help from a number of staff. It’s the second time I have come to the store. The runners I wanted were not there so staff gave me some recommendations. I was very happy with both pairs I ended up with getting a pair that suited me both style comfort and price. I found the staff friendly and professional. I will definitely be returning.”

“Had a lovely morning, this morning visiting the cinema for the first time with my daughter. She loved watching the Bluey let's cook collection. Featuring amazing recliner chairs across all screens, sleek modern decor, plus amazing staff special thanks to Chloe always so lovely and helpful.”

“Super friendly, always has way more than you expect (including loads of vegan options) and were way better stocked than Sainsbury's during the pandemic.”

“I really needed a massage today, especially on my left side. As usual, Christina was great. She is always cheerful, kind , caring and supportive. Thank you.”

“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!”

“I have been a customer of Shirley Motor Spares for about two years taking all the families cars there since. From the outset their service has been outstanding. They always discuss with you what needs to be done and they don't pressure you to do more. They are very honest in their assessment of the work needed and their pricing is very competitive. They carry out the work in a timely manner and keep you informed where necessary. My latest job required liaison with a warranty company and Neil was relentless in his pursuit of a good outcome for me. He succeeded and I am very grateful. I would thoroughly recommend these guys for any car repair. Many Thanks to you all. Regards Frank”

“Bruce did my hair fantastically for three years. He's very good at working out how to deal with thick hair, and cutting short cuts. I always felt he really listened to what I wanted. He was also good at maintaining hair while it grows out to a longer cut. I'll miss him!”

“Frank at the Beckenham branch was very helpful in helping me when HSS missed a delivery. Thanks a lot mate. Wish all staff were like you.”

“Listen, this Donny's chicken was so tasty that when I was eating it, I didn't want it to end. Big portions and cheap.”

“Best Food Outlet @ Boxpark. Good Customer Service.”

“I am new to the area and was looking for a good cafe; I have come twice now and the food and staff has been really good. The way they cook and serve the food is just right!!!”

“The only bar worth visiting in Croydon if you enjoy craft beer. Excellent range of beers both on tap and in the fridge. They usually have food available at weekends, and on weekdays you’re welcome to bring food in. Knowledgable staff.”

“Staff are polite and helpful but one standing out most is Sirat in the meat department. He makes you feel as a family.”

“Good brick matching service came all the way to our project in south London and matched the bricks Perfect Michael said what we needed and he was spot on tried other reclaimed yards and not a patch on these thanks Michael”

“Great staffing, by being friendly to the community it genuinely does not feel like those generic shops where the staff have no connection with the customer. There’s always stock and if there isn’t the staff and the manager go above and beyond as they tell me which Tesco's nearby me would have that stock. Give them all a raise!”

“Been shopping here for about a year and the stock is always there and customer service is polite and nice. Shame they are going for more self service tills and reducing human service but it is the time we're livi in ...”

“Delicious food - best we’ve had in ages!!”

“We were searching for fish and chips it was like 10.00 pm we couldn’t find any shops only this was opened. We thought they are going to be grumpy because it was closing time. They welcomed us with big smile and they are happy to serve us. I thought maybe they will give leftovers. But they did it from scratch. Tasty, crispy, fresh fish with thin batter that’s what I like . Well packed in a separate boxes easy to carry without mess. They were friendly and generous. I am not a fish and chips person because I don’t oily, saggy cold and thick batters . I would say this is the best place for fish and chips.”

“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.”

“Costa is a great place to take a break and get a cup of coffee/tea or just some drinks with friends. I rate this 5 starts because I love the food and drink at Costa, and I am so happy when this came to New Addington.”

“Fantastic Chinese. Only one we ever order from. I use to live in Singapore as a child, so was brought up on Chinese food. This Chinese gives excellent service, food and value for money.”

“Amazing pizza and sides. Ordered over phone, pizza ready in 15 mins. paid with card. Would be visiting more often.”

“8/08/25- myself and my 3 bridesmaid gotten our hair & makeup done for my special day / wedding cannot fault su for a beautiful job such a kind and caring person and made us feel special would recommend anyone to go to her for there hair & makeup to get done for there special day worth the money not expensive cannot thankyou enough for all you did for us well and truly such an amazing talent and lady !”

“Nice place, great service, tasty food & very reasonable prices. Perhaps a bit old fashioned but I don't mind that at all... next to a fab little old pub too, we need to keep these places open :-)”
