Relaxing restaurant in Croydon

“food was absolutely delicious 10/10 would literally go back tomorrow. service was lovely, everyone was so sweet and attentive. get the lamb beyti!!!! you will not regret it x”

“In the heart of Croydon, a Sri Lankan restaurant, from the outside it did not suggest anything good, in reality, a really charming, clean and well-kept restaurant. short waiting times. GREAT FOOD really tasty. reasonable prices. Really courteous staff also very friendly manger. bathrooms clean and well maintained. if you are in the area I recommend it. great! Also plates are really nice with sun and moon.”

“Great place if you want to have a quick sandwich, salad or a wrap. The service is excellent and you have plenty of options to customise your food. Also, the place has seating inside and the vegetables & meat they use look really fresh. You should definitely give this place a try next time you are around.”

“My secret to a perfect day: double egg, bacon,onion and mushroom sandwich with a drizzle of brown sauce...The two brothers are proud in what they do - hard to find these days... and ask for runny eggs. My mouth is watering while typing although I just had a toasted BLT(on the diet - new years resolution. Still asked to throw a runny egg in it.)”

“Navaratna never disappoints! The chilli idly is absolutely amazing—bursting with flavor and perfectly spiced. The dosa is equally enjoyable, and the menu offers a fantastic variety of options to choose from. Always a pleasure to visit this kind, family-run, award-winning restaurant. The food is consistently wholesome and delicious. Looking forward to the next visit!”

“Went here last Thursday as heard they did a good quiz night. Had a burger and a couple of pints of Guinness zero; burger was top notch, proper gourmet stuff and we really enjoyed the quiz, we somehow won! Only downside was that it was a bit quiet, probably helped us win the quiz though. Staff were great, very friendly and welcoming.”

“No longer Aqua. Noto Italian restaurant and café. My mixed grill was very good and I was full. Wife had seabass and said it was tasty. They are going to have jazz and r n b lunchtimes in the near future so give it a try and a follow.”

“Had not been to this cafe for a while, due to being away. Hasn't lost its touch. Went in a few times this week. Had my usual toast, poached egg and salad. Another time I had spaghetti and another time I had omelette. Lovely food, Nice people, nice atmosphere and good pricing. Thanks selsdon cafe. See you soon.”

“Great furniture store and cafe. We had to return some furniture as we ordered the wrong item our mistake. The return process was easy you just enter a code then go to a till 40 seconds and it was all done. We then headed upstairs to try the cafe, it was breakfast time so that's what we had I tried the £2.99 vegetarian breakfast it was delicious the coffee tasted good also. For the price and quality it without a doubt its a great breakfast stop. Someone on the reviews said on their visit the cafe was dirty, on my visit I found the cafe area spotless and fresh throughout. My appreciation to the cleaning staff thanks. After that we headed through the store again I really enjoyed it I found no faults whatsoever. Disabled access is brilliant throughout. My only concern was all the staff we encountered were very unhappy and non engaging without any exceptions such a shame, perhaps its not a good place to work maybe.”

“I’m loving these little gem popping up locally and what amazing food Really seasoned well and cooked to perfection. The chef is brilliant and the atmosphere is tranquil I would recommend this place to anyone The kısır was delightful and the Adana and chicken shish was spot on and I was very impressed.”

“This restaurant is superb. Everything is homemade, even the chilli and garlic sauces, and the meat is wonderfully spiced and flavoursome. It is family run and operated and the pride that goes into the food and service is apparent. I would not hesitate to dine here again and to recommend this place to friends and family.”

“I had an amazing experience at Nando’s thanks to Vinnie! From the moment I walked in, he was warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. He made sure everything was perfect – checking in during the meal, recommending great menu items, and even making sure our order came out just right. You could tell he genuinely cared about creating a great customer experience. It’s rare to see service with such a personal touch. Big thanks to the team – especially Vinnie– for making our visit so enjoyable.”

“I've found this spot some time ago, frankly it needs a mention. Easily one of the most under rated venues in Croydon. The staff are down to earth, helpful and add a vibrant splash of colour to the place, those they come into contact with love them. Thanks in particular to Amanda and Zoe for their service, made my visit extra special. Will update with further visit and share for one and all. People give them a try!! ❤️”

“Avinash delivered my Domino’s order and did an amazing job! The food arrived hot, fresh, and right on time. He was incredibly polite, professional, and had a great attitude. It’s always a pleasure to receive service from someone who genuinely cares. Keep up the great work, Avinash!”

“I’m a regular customer at Domino’s and I can honestly say I’ve never been disappointed. The shop is always spotless and beautifully kept, and the staff are absolutely lovely—so helpful and welcoming every single time. They always greet me with the biggest smile, which really makes a difference. As for the pizzas? Perfect, every time. Hot, fresh, and delicious. Couldn’t ask for better service or food. Highly recommend!”

“Had a great stay at Premier Inn! Ram, our host, made the experience extra special — he surprised us with a bottle of prosecco and chocolates as we were there for a special occasion, which was such a lovely touch. His energy and friendliness really stood out and made us feel very welcome. Excellent service all around, would definitely stay again! Couldn’t recommend more❤️Get Ram a raise!!!”

“We were so impressed of the staff, the reception lady checked us in early. The breakfast is amazing, overall the foods are so fresh and delicious. Adela was so kind to assist us about collecting our car from nearby mall where we parked. The hotel has a strategic location, it’s surrounded with good restaurants. Metro is just around the corner too. We will definitely come back again in the near future. Cheers, Patrick and Annie Atlanta, GA”

“kokoro is a wonderful place to eat. they have amazing portions which make sure you're not only full, but that you're not wasting your money. The food tastes amazing (id personally recommend their large sweet and sour chicken bowl with rice).”

“Nice place, good service I suggest this place”

“We stayed here as a couple and really enjoyed it! The room isn’t super modern, but it’s cosy, clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The highlight for us was definitely the reception — open 24/7 and always so friendly and helpful. Huge thanks to Angie and Kosh for being amazing, they made us feel really welcome from the moment we arrived. We’d happily stay here again”

“Very nice hotel. Is not expensive but the services are very good for the money. The rooms are clean, every day the cleaners change the bed sheets, towels and consumables. The rooms have big LCD TV, air conditioning, hair dryer, kettle, mini fridge, safe and microwave oven. The room doors are locked with electronic latches wich sometimes doesn't work properly because of magnetic cards, but the problem is very well known by the hotel employees and they will change your card without any problems. Parking is not free and you can park at the basement of the hotel or into Ibis hotel parking.”

“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.”

“I've had various wraps, the biryani and other dishes from the restaurant on many occasions and it's definitely the best place to get Indian take-away. I think my favourite is the lamb curry but everything is really nice! I don't often publish reviews about food but this is very good. I would highly recommend!”

“I had a great experience at Pizza Hut. Alfie and the staff were really welcoming and helpful especially with ordering of the violife pizza which was quite confusing for both sides. Great pizzas as well as the salad bar.”

“Excellent Stay, great staff and good food and drinks, thanks to the reception staff for sorting the rooms out for us. Very professional housekeeping staff. Overall great hotel, close to local restaurants and public transportation.”
