Restaurant in Purley

“Really friendly, welcoming place. Fabulous deli with a great selection of Portuguese food and wines. The home-made Portuguese sausages are fantastic. A true gem in Purley.”

“Delicious food from the starters to the mains and desserts. Great place for a catch up with friends nice ambience. Would highly recommend the giant prawns.”

“Been here before to pick up just avocado maki; this time I was in a rush so explained this to the shop owner who was professional and polite, said he could make me up a sushi box in the 10 mins I had if I chose quickly. After changing my choice a couple of times he was patient enough to go with it and I settled on the Omega Box (8 Salmon & Avocado Rolls, 6 Salmon Maki, 6 Avocado Maki) which came with soya sauce, wasabi paste (firmer and drier than usual sushi box wasabi, possibly better quality?) - with a 10% takeaway discount it came to £11.69. Sushi rice was room-temperature (as best enjoyed), well-seasoned and good texture, fresh-tasting fish and avocado, with a good amount of filling in the salmon & avocado rolls; really enjoyed and plan to return!”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Ege Turkish Restaurant in Purley, and I must say it was a wonderful experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm and friendly service. The ambience was cozy and tranquil, perfect for both casual dining and special occasions. The menu offers a fantastic selection of authentic Turkish cuisine. For the main course, I opted for the mixed grill, which was cooked to perfection – tender, juicy, and seasoned just right. What truly sets Ege Restaurant apart is their attention to detail and commitment to quality. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Overall, Ege Restaurant in Purley provides a wonderful dining experience. Whether you're a fan of Turkish cuisine or trying it for the first time, this restaurant will not disappoint. I highly recommend it and look forward to my next visit.”

“Called in for a few drinks while in the area. This is a "proper" old school pub which is rare these days! The lady serving was lovely and helped us with some local knowledge of bars in the area. Good pint of Guinness”

“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 welcoming house, I loved the bedrooms, the breakfast is complete and very British. Value for money is very interesting 5/5 ! I recommend this hotel”

“great fresh pizza with great variety of toppings and styles. Service is fast too. Will def recommend”

“Today we ordered two pizzas and 12 piece bucket food was so delicious. both staff member are very friendly or always smile and joking. They gave us good atmosphere.”

“Absolutely love this pizza shop! Fresh ingredients, perfectly crispy crust, and tons of flavor in every bite. Friendly staff and quick service made it even better. Can’t wait to come back for more!”

“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 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.”

“I've been coming to this place for years. They're the best kebab shop in Purley.”

“Caroline was such a lovely host! Happy to accommodate my strange questions & requests as a vegan. Me and my mate were really happy to be served by her and you can tell she takes pride in her job.”

“Food was fresh and especially the tandoori chicken.”

“Fantastic food and super tasty , ordered for the office and they enjoyed it so much ! As the order was over £500 we received free drinks and starters , such a great Christmas treat to my staff ! Thanks”

“Actually so confused about the bad reviews. I ordered before looking at them - saw the bad reviews as food was en route and had a bit of a panic. The food was hot upon arrival, flavoursome and didnt inflict any sort of food poisoning- and I have a VERY weak stomach when it comes to food related illnesses. Again, flabbergasted at the bad reviews- 10/10 would order again!”

“Absolutely amazing experience at Purley Dragon! I honestly don’t understand all the bad reviews — they couldn’t be further from the truth. Every time I’ve been to Purley Dragon, the food has been incredible — always hot, fresh, and full of flavour. The portions are generous, and you can tell everything is made with care. The staff are genuinely some of the nicest people you’ll meet. They’re polite, welcoming, and always happy to accommodate special requests or dietary needs. You can tell they really care about their customers and want everyone to have a great experience. The restaurant is always clean, cosy, and has such a warm atmosphere — it’s perfect for a takeaway night or a casual meal out. I’ve tried a lot of Chinese places around the area, and none come close to the taste or service here. If you’re hesitating because of the negative reviews, don’t. Give Purley Dragon a try — you’ll see for yourself how wrong those comments are. Once you do, you’ll never go anywhere else for Chinese again!”

“Tried the vegetarian green and beets and loved it. The sushi guy at the counter was as cute as Keanu Reeves!!!”

“Lovely cafe near Riddlesdown station. Wide range of hot and cold drinks including smoothies, nice egg breakfast selection and toasties and burgers. Some of the menu is halal, ask before you order. Recommend”

“Simply Stunning!! Valentines afternoon tea for all the family, we visited as a family age range 3y-68y and there was something for everyone. The food was fresh and extremely tasty, the venue itself was beautiful so special and has perfect photo opportunities and the service was outstanding it felt very personal with lots of extra special touches. I can 100% recommend and will be back to visit again. Jade”

“First time trying this place. Definately wont be the last. Food is absolutely amazing. Deliciously authentic and fresh. Very affordable too and portion size great.”

“I would like to thank the owners for making my stay as comfortable, pleasant and relaxing as possible. Congratulations on totally renovating and refurbishing to enable you to provide high quality accommodation with a range of booking and room type to suit the needs of individuals, couples, families and groups wishing to stay just 25 minutes from the centre of London, whether on holiday, a short stay or a business trip. I was also lucky enough to take advantage of Alma's culinary skills (alma is a professional housekeeper and chef, baker - delicious cakes and pastries), who will welcome you and make sure you have a great experience. At the end of a busy few days being able to go back to Hazel residence and unwind was great. Thanks everyone Andy”

“I really liked the atmosphere, it reminded me a lot of Italy. The food is excellent, the dishes are beautiful, the wine is very good. The prices vary, but overall it is not expensive. The atmosphere is not very large, so if there are a lot of people it is a good idea to make a reservation, especially on the weekend. But I will come back if possible. It is not wheelchair accessible, there is a small staircase at the entrance.”

“Tried this place again as first time when it opened I was a little disappointed with the miso soup and gunkan which I found to be too salty and flavourless. This did not disappoint this time, the bubble tea was refreshing (ordered with less ice and less sugar), the food was delicious and decent portion sizes. Could pick up wasabi, pickled ginger and soy sauce for free as additions. Very friendly customer service, patient and helpful with all my questions and changing my mind. I plan to return here again, lovely place!”

“A wonderful dining experience. The steak was cooked to perfection – tender and full of rich flavour. The chorizo in wine was outstanding, beautifully seasoned and bursting with taste. Highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic Argentine cuisine.”

“I had a very nice full british breakfast at this Portuguese restaurant in Purley. The breakfast included: Hash browns, sausages (pork), mushroom, Eggs (you can choose between fried, poached or scrambled) I had my ones poached, bacon, beaked beans, black pudding, toast, butter, tomatoes light fried,”

“10/10 food, never had a bad one. Garlic chilli lamb is a favourite. Great spices and flavours.”

“I had an incredible dining experience at the steakhouse! The ambiance was warm and inviting, the staff were attentive and friendly, and the star of the show was undoubtedly the perfectly cooked steak. Each bite was a burst of flavor and tenderness, showcasing their culinary expertise. The extensive wine selection paired wonderfully with the meal, enhancing the overall dining pleasure. I can't wait to return and indulge in another fantastic meal at this steakhouse!”

“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.”
