Quick snack option in Croydon

“I lived in the round the corner for twenty years and only just tried this place. It was a great breakfast with the best toast in the area, wish I'd started going sooner.”

“Such a huge fan of the staff in this store, they all seem to enjoy their work, will have a joke around and are generally just nice. They have a great selection for such a small store - including hot Costa coffee and breakfast - and have fresh daily baked goods. Well worth joining their members club if you live nearby.”

“Tadashi is my go-to for chicken katsu curry! The owner is always really friendly, the portion sizes are great and ingredients taste fresh and more healthy than your typical highly processed katsu curry. Comes with a fortune cookie which is a nice touch and prices are very good!”

“Really amazing food (indian and indo chinese) the momos were also perfect at perfect spice and taste. Absolutely loved it. Must visit. Special mention for all the chaat and chole”

“Excellent little place. Great coffee, good value, really friendly service and a very good selection (incl. GF, DF, vegan etc) of delicious cakes, biscuits, juices, sandwiches etc. So glad such a lovely place is just around the corner. Will definitely be back.”

“My new favourite spot. Service 10/10. Food 10/10. Huge portions, fully customisable. If you’re looking for some good food then get down to Elly’s!! Such a homely atmosphere.”

“lovely staff and good amount of seating area. i had the cinnamon roll more than once it was very nice! not everyone can perfect the roll but it suited my preference for it well. there’s an upstairs with a lighter environment great for doing work and a downstairs area which is a bit moodier but a nice place to read books just depending on your preference.”

“Friendly staff, amazing coffee and very good portuguese products”

“Can't beat Eddie's Cafe, it's simple honest good an excellent kind staff The breakfast is banging and alwasy served with a smile. We love this place”

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

“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.”

“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.”

“Affordable and good all day breakfast i enjoy it so much :)”

“Had my breakfast in there today and the place was clean and friendly. Prices were really good also”

“The best halal shop with great produce and variety you can get. Have all the necessary households necessary in one place. From frozen food to fresh items, fresh poultry to meat, everything in one place and reasonable than other nearby shops. A great place to shop for all dietary people.”

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

“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!”

“Massive breakfast, tasty. Bread and rolls really nice, good price too”

“I ordered from KFC New Addington via delivery and was amazed by how quickly it arrived. The food was piping hot, and the chicken was crispy and flavorful. The driver was courteous and efficient. Will definitely be ordering from here again!"”

“I like this shop, the saleswoman is always friendly.”

“Thank you lianna for your incredible service on the bra fitting today (Xmas Eve) you were so kind and patient and ensured I had exactly what I needed. Hope you have a fantastic Christmas. 10/10 customer service”

“It was busy but girls at the reception were so efficient and fast to serve so we don’t had to wait longer. Coffee was great as all the Costa points. Cookies I didn’t like so much but overall good experience. Highly recommended”

“Atmosphere was electric when my ham and cheese toastie was cut the crowd went wild had a great time if i had to pick between England winning the euros or watching the lady cut my sandwich in the 90th minute I know what one I'm picking outstanding effort”

“Popped to get some post gym nourishment, as usual. Wendy provided amazing service as always. Very speedy, very friendly”

“I feel bad for the staff that work here. They have redbull cans locked up, packets of chicken breast locked up. Wine locked up. The staff here that deal with this on a day to day basis need a raise.”

“I was in store during the day of the mask situation stated below and I can say the lady was opening multiple packs of masks so she was politely asked not to open them all and to only open one pack before paying, she then become majorly aggressive towards several members of staff that the staff member serving me behind the till pressed their emergency response button to get the police to the shop, the lady was nearly arrested as she was threatening staff and other customers!! However the store in general was clean tidy & the staff that were in were very friendly!”

“I had a fantastic experience with Laura at the Warlingham COOP! She was incredibly polite and genuinely went above and beyond to assist me. Her positive attitude and willingness to help made my shopping experience so much more enjoyable. Laura is a credit to the team, and her exceptional service is why I’ll keep coming back. Thank you, Laura!”

“Great store... gets busy in the evening. Should hire more staff to reduce waiting times...”

“The food was amazing. We bought Ackee & Saltfish dumplings, festivals, BBQ chicken and Jerk chicken with Rice and peas. (Cannot believe we forgot the Plantain). The Guinness punch was also nice. The food was delivered within 45 mins and was pipping hot (and given we live 20mins away, this is a HUGE plus). I am assuming nothing was microwaved either as everything tasted fresh and well-made. Look forward to ordering from you again!”

“I’ve been to this branch of Starbucks a couple of times recently and it’s been great. My friend is disabled, so parking is very convenient as there are Blue Badge parking spaces directly outside. Access is easy too. The staff are all friendly and you don’t feel rushed, even when it’s near closing time. One outstanding member of staff we encountered was Elaine, the manager, who is incredibly friendly, warm and kind. She was extremely considerate and helpful towards my friend, who needed to access the toilet. Elaine made sure she could navigate her way to the toilet safely and that there were no obstructions in her way. On our way out, just as the shop was closing, Elaine cheerfully called out to say goodbye, which was a lovely touch. It’s warm, friendly and helpful staff members like Elaine who contribute to a positive experience when visiting a coffee shop. Thank you Elaine. You’re an asset to Starbucks. Update: When I first encountered Elaine, I mistakenly thought she was the cleaner as she was mopping the floor. On my next visit she told me that she was actually the manager and had found my post hugely amusing. This just shows what a wonderful sense of humour Elaine has! It also shows how the manager is prepared to do any task that is required.”
