Restaurant in Purley

“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!”

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

“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.”

“Celebrated my nephew’s 30th birthday party yesterday evening. Held upstairs in the private area. Absolutely brilliant. Lovely staff, great food. Above all, Renegade DJ was the best. ! Had everyone dancing all night. And what a happy, bubbly person you are. So nice (and refreshing) to see a DJ in such good spirits ALL NIGHT. Thank you to everyone who made my lovely nephew’s party a success xx”

“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 had a fantastic rainy Tuesday sitting in the conservatory of this little gem of an establishment. Decor was beautiful and staff were active, professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Not only were they excellent, they genuinely seemed to enjoy the job which created a great atmosphere. I was honestly stunned. It was such a nice homely feel. It was also busy when we arrived. We’d booked a table and our booking time was politely and decoratively written on a small stand at our table (including the time our slot ended) but we didn’t get the impression that we had to rush at all. In fact it was pouring with rain and it got a bit quieter after 1pm so we were welcomed to stay. So we had some tea and cake, which was delicious. Staff were helpful with the menu, I have allergies and there was absolutely none of the panic that unsettled me in some establishments when I mention it. I felt confident about picking food. I was delighted to find they offer turkey bacon and had eggs. I did have to knock off a star for the eggs Benedict. The eggs were between runny and well done and I found the muffin a little dry so it missed some flavour for me, but the coffee was amazing, as was the rose tea I had later. It’s worth adding that the toilet here was one of the nicest smelling I’ve ever been in?! It smelled like strawberries and was super clean, always a massive bonus. Oh and the restaurant is not only dog friendly, but staff are really nice to dogs, it was so cute to see how well a little poodle was treated in there. There was a little comfy bed , a bowl of water, and treats offered to the pooch, which was adorable. I will definitely visit again soon. Great way to spend an afternoon. Definitely book ahead to avoid disappointment!”

“We had an amazing experience at TASQUERIA by SMOQUE! We enjoyed a two-course meal from the lunch menu, which included the seabass dish, a side of fries, churros, and Oreo cheesecake. Everything was absolutely delicious and perfectly prepared. The presentation was on point and aesthetically pleasing. If you’re looking for an authentic Spanish restaurant, look no further. The prices were reasonable, the decor was lovely, and the staff were professional and attentive. The restaurant was clean and spacious, though the ladies/disabled toilet was used for a bit of storage. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I would definitely recommend it. We will be back again with friends! Feel free to adjust any details as needed!”

“Great service and food. As soon as I arrived I was greeted by Leanne, gave me a choice of tables and made me feel welcome. Then Irving my waiter introduced himself , he was friendly , polite and seemed to enjoy his job, went out of his way to make us feel special. The food was excellent, a really lovely evening with a good atmosphere. Must mention Lili who took our payment at the end , they were all really friendly, efficient I will definitely return.”

“What a great little pub, the only reason I marked down for atmosphere is because we went at lunchtime , so maybe not as lively as in the evening. We sat in the dining area but the rest of the pub was busy. The food was delicious, hot and the batter on my chicken was perfect. Another bonus hot pork scratchings! Shouldn’t have had them before are ample dinners! The staff were so friendly and it’s reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend”

“Out of all the other wood fired pizzas I have tried. This one by far is the best, due to the simple fact that they use sour dough bread. Cannot be beaten . Amazing service! Pizza served with a smile. Would give a 6 star if available.”

“Top pub in Purley, friendly and busy on a Saturday night - Curry was spot on and the live ska band (perfectly timed as we finished meal) were phenomenal.. Great night had by all. Waitress was also on the ball and came up to us every time drinks got low... 10/10”

“Came home after 5 pints and absolutely smashed 5 chicken balls, half a Singapore vermicelli and half a mixed veg in oyster sauce, will undoubtedly smash the rest tomorrow lunch time. Absolutely banging”

“It's great to see this fab Purley pub open and managed brilliantly by Adam, Jo and the team. Service with a smile, great selection of drinks and cracking music playing. Nice vibe and a great place to drink in Purley.”

“We stayed for 2 nights in the London Hilton in Croydon. What a wonderful place Food was great . Staff were great. So clean and lovely staff. We attended a wedding nearby. What an amazing place. Would highly recommend. Thank you all for your hospitality”

“Amazing restaurant, food and the vibes! will definitely be coming back here again! Shoutout to Jose and Vlad for making our experience here very special - well done boys!”

“Loved it 8n their. I don't normally go for a drink but if I do that is the only place I would go.”

“I love the staff. Most of them are my friends now because they are so friendly and kind. Always a smile and patience beyond measure. I've seen it tested. One guy is annoying to both customers and staff but we all just ignore him mostly. The chicken however is flipping delicious. It's so flavourful. I highly doubt anyone would be disappointed if they try it for themselves. Better than chicken cottage on London rd. Better than KFC by far. Better than that one chicken shop of church street (I'm so sorry to say but it's true). Obviously I like chicken, hot wings in particular so I know what's up. This place is dope.”

“Best in the area by a distance. Freshly cooked with good quality ingredients. Plenty of flavour and nice staff as well. I made the mistake of trying another Chinese in the area while these guys were closed and won't be ordering from anywhere else in purley other than these guys again.”

“Great food, really nice folks, very clean cafe, spacious, good place to gather your thoughts. They take debit cards and prices are very good value and sometimes cheaper than other places. Food is similar or better or different in a good way, to other cafes, not the usual boring stuff. Much is home made and fresh. The lady there makes cakes, so I ordered a birthday cake, all beautifully decorated to order, at half the price people making cakes at home charge, and a fraction of what it costs in a large bakery chain for a birthday or celebration cake. I will be going there regularly from now on.”

“This place is brilliant Zahid khan is the best worker! Absolutely amazing”

“Best place to stay in South London”

“My first experience with family solicitors was very painful but Mr Awan has been a blessing for me. Out of my disappointment from mediation and my previous experience I have contacted Mr Awan. His professional advice, guidance and his valuable services provide me with the best I can get. I'm very pleased with their services and thanked them for everything they have done for me.”

“Amazing food every time. A delicious and unique dining experience.”

“Various Dim sum choices with clean environment with reasonable price. After enjoy Chinese tea could shop at Big Big Chinese supermarket with different types of Asian food including seafood. Free car parking for limited hours”

“Very fast order and delivery in only 30 min. The food was plenty and tasted excellent. Too bad I don't live in Purley. Otherwise, this would be a regular occurrence!”

“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.”

“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.”
