Restaurants in Croydon

“Went in with a group of friends and the portion sizes were big enough to fill us to the brim! Beautiful food, lovely ambience, and we were sat in the little carpeted book but didn't feel forgotten. Recommend to anyone looking to treat their tastebuds”

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

“A great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors—sitting in the garden here is always a treat. It’s a very friendly and welcoming spot, made even better by the amazing bartender, Ian. He goes above and beyond to make everyone feel at home, even learning a few words from my native language, which truly meant a lot. I'm always greeted with the biggest smile, and it’s clear the place wouldn’t be the same without him. A genuinely great guy who adds so much to the atmosphere. Highly recommended!”

“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.”

“Really amazing place! Lovely staff and very chilled vibe. The quality of the food is exceptional - the best scones I’ve ever had and the bacon is a real hit. I really recommend and can’t wait to come back.”

“Visited here with my wife. We had a lovely time together. Each meal we had was delicious, tasty and appetising truly African taste. We even had to do take away. The restaurant is clean and serene with awesome service. Aduane Pa Fie.”

“First time @Ayat and loved it. Good was great, flavour dishes prepared with care. Interior looks great has it's own unique flair although music was to loud. Service was a bit lacking. We where seated promptly and our food came out in timely manner but the waitress didn't check on us at all (she was on her phone all the time we where there as we could see from our spot). We need to get up and ask her for another round of drinks as she wasn't paying any attention to us at all.And then she got our simple order for drinks wrong, we where the only costumers there so no distractions and it was quite early an a lazy Sunday. Hope that the service does improve as the food was delicious. Will come back to give it another chance for sure.”

“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.”

“First time ordering from 08 Express and I'm very impressed! Delivery was on time and the food is delicious. Very reasonably priced. Absolutely recommend and I will be ordering again without hesitation”

“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.”

“Highly recommended – a solid 10 out of 10 and definitely worth a try. It’s a long-missed taste of Asia. The laksa is outstanding, the stir-fried ho fun is full of wok hei, and the Malaysian white coffee is excellent. All that, and the prices are very reasonable too.”

“My husband and I have been having our brunch here on Saturday afternoons for at least two years. We do a lot of pet sitting, especially on weekends, so try other cafes local to those sits. Nowhere has compared well with Tota. I always have their cheese and tomato omelette with chips and salad. The omelette is always cooked perfectly, nicely browned, thick but fluffy. The chips are chunky and also very lightly browned for crispness and they serve it with a good quality salad. All at great value and with lovely service. We just wish they were open on Sundays, but appreciate that like all of us, they need at least one day off!”

“The fox and hound is a traditional Irish style pub. Friendly and helpful staff. Beers such as Stella, Guinness ect. No craft beers but good draft. this keeps the pub affordable. Karaoke on a Friday nights and live music on a Saturday. The Wolfe tones often play here.”

“Absolutely brilliant food, generous portions, lovely customer service!”

“I have been ordering from them for over a decade now, and the food is consistently good and very reasonable. I highly recommend the Jade Dragon Special Crispy Noodles, which has an assortment of vegetables and several meats and a house special sauce completes the dish, a complete meal in itself for under £7. The prawn crackers are fresh and flavourful, and they've been very kind and helpful when I was convalescing and needed dishes tailored. Always delivered cheerfully, no matter the weather (thank you!).”

“Really friendly service and tasty food! Will definitely visit again.”

“Just had a lovely dinner with the family at Sanderstead Tandoori. Massive thanks to Jay for the impeccable hospitality and recommendations as it was our first time in his restaurant. The king prawn sizzler is a must try! Absolutely delightful. We had a wide array of curries which packed fantastic flavour and generous amounts of lamb and chicken. Highly recommend!”

“Azis (The owner) and his team have always strived and delivered on giving me and my family a 5* dining experience here when we visit. Been a regular customer here for years. Simply the best curry house going!”

“This place is without they're the best Indian restaurant I've ever been to. Been going here over 15 years family occasions partys out with m8s no worries this is the best place to go grest food and staff u should definitely try it.”

“Genuinely the best pizza i’ve ever had!! Definitely get the garlic sprinkles they make the pizza even better!! Service is always great and the workers here are so friendly :) Thank you Asif for my order!!”

“We held our Christmas party at Project B last night. It was such a fun time in a fabulous venue! The staff were friendly and went out of their way to accommodate us including setting up table tennis! The DJ mixed in our favourite requests and kept us dancing through the night. I would highly recommend Project B.”

“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.”

“Lovely vibe with friendly and attentive staff as well as customers-felt like I was actually in the Caribbean! They have a surprising rooftop section with views of the Croydon skyline. Two menus. One with meat and vegetarian options and one fish and seafood. We ate from the seafood menu. The food was fresh and good portions. I recommend the jug of rum punch for £20 - great value.”

“Best Thai in Croydon. Having been to Thailand and tried most Thai outlets around Croydon, I think this is currently the most authentic I’ve experienced. Usually our go to takeaway but went to the restaurant for first time yesterday. Same great food & waitress was amazing; working insanely hard to keep everyone happy. Great job Tuk Tuk!”

“I can’t get enough of this kebab takeaway! Their meat selection is not only incredibly delicious but also comes in truly generous portions. You’ll never leave hungry. What truly makes this place special, though, is the owner – a kind and authentic gentleman who never forgets to greet you with a friendly wave every time you pass by. It’s the perfect combination of mouthwatering food and a warm welcome.”

“The service at this Itsu location is consistently excellent. The main host, who is always working non-stop, deserves special recognition. She consistently goes above and beyond with her customer service, greeting everyone warmly and making sure the restaurant runs smoothly. Her dedication and positive attitude truly elevate the experience she always seems focused on one goal: making every visit remarkable. Great recommendation with the Ginger shot. Many thanks for her hard work and genuine care.”

“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.”

“Absolutely delicious food. They are under new management and the new team deliver outstanding customer service. Friendly and attentive, a great place to eat. Only giving 4 stars for atmosphere as it’s so quiet, but hopefully more people will discover this gem and it’ll begin to buzz.”

“Very good pizza with very best behaviour from staff very friendly you can customize as well must recommend in a budget price”

“Fair prices and better than dominos in my opinion.”
