Unique dining experiences in Sutton

“Happy to make changes like putting some meat separate and some in a pitta which is really useful, when they are flexible about how the food is given to you and they aren't precious about a set menu. Only thing I'd point out to them is to make sure to use a set of tongs to turn the raw chicken skewers over, and once this is cooked on the outside, move to a different part of the grill and finish it off, by using another pair of tongs. You'd avoid any chance of cross contamination this way. Same goes for the pittas and wraps being warmed up - use another clean pair of tongs to avoid customers having second thoughts about their stomachs getting through the night ok..”

“An excellent place to eat your traditional English breakfast. Staff are very nice and excellent service all around.”

“Relaxed service. Perfect cheese burger for £3. Perfect chocolate sundae. Chicken burger was so tasty it forced me to slow down to savour it which was another superb experience. The loo was perfectly clean. They have regulars which is the best compliment. The staff were all very approachable. Thank you for being a space of tranquillity in a crazy world.”

“I had their Spicy chicken sandwich, and my Mrs had Portobello mushroom & Brie cheese sandwiche, along with coffee. All of them were delicious, especially the Speciality coffee that I had, it has Irish cream, Kaluha coffee liquor. Previously I had cakes as takeaway from them, they were also delicious. Seating and ambience is very comforting and cozy. My wife loves this cafe . Owner and staff are very warm and polite. I'll highly recommend anyone who visits Sutton.”

“Great coffee, great atmosphere, good place for a chat. Sam, Rosie and Karla have been wonderful over the years. Best Coffee in Sutton!!”

“Stumbled upon this gem by complete accident. Will 1000% be coming back. Best curry I've ever had. Incredible staff that are friendly, accommodating and make you feel so welcome. The food was absolutely insane.”

“I've only ever driven through Cheam before my visit yesterday, a trip by public transport (tram and train) from Croydon specifically to visit the Whitehall museum, housed in a grade II* listed former domestic dwelling dating from before the reign of Henry VIII. While the museum is an important place of reference for local history, geared more towards children than adults, it also houses the excellent Freedom Caffe' tearoom. The restrictions imposed by such an old, historic house may mean they can't use a normal commercial coffee machine but the range of soft drinks is impressive and more importantly, the vegan options for lunch are delicious. I highly recommend both the vegan sausage roll with salad and the vegan Greek. Then there are the cakes... The only vegan option on the day was a chocolate pear and apple cake but it was gorgeous and the staff were attentive and friendly and the food reasonably priced. I also noted the fresh pasta preparation. There's more to Cheam than the museum but whatever else you're doing it's well worth making sure you visit the Freedom Caffe' for a drink and a bite to eat.”

“Excellent service and amazing quality food with a range of sashimi and nigiri options. Must visit near Sutton High Street!”

“I had a collection on Sunday. They were super busy but so friendly, polite and gracious. It was great to see my food cooked fresh and it was absolutely delicious. I’m so glad I found this place. I had Chicken Yakisoba with a medium spice level. Perfect!”

“A Warm Welcome to Authentic Greek Cuisine: A Family-Run Delight! We absolutely love AVRA, and it's easy to see why! The magic of this place lies in its unbeatable combination of exceptional value and tantalizing flavours. Every dish is crafted with high-quality fresh ingredients and cooked to absolute perfection, leaving us craving more after every portion. The food is simply outstanding. You can taste the expertise and passion in every dish, and it truly shines through in each bite. From the starters to the mains, everything was prepared to the highest standard and was absolutely delicious. A special shoutout to Thomas and the staff, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their genuine attentiveness added to the experience, making it feel even more special. The restaurant’s relaxed ambiance and comfortable seating only enhanced our evening leaving us excited to return. If you haven’t tried this amazing Greek restaurant and bar yet, do yourself a favour and give it a go.......you won’t regret it!”

“Great Food! The burger was delicious and the chicken was very juicy and tender. Overall, the food was amazing. Christy’s service was excellent — 5 stars!”

“I just got back from ordering from this place. And I have to say the staff was friendly and helpful. Even though it took a little longer than expected, they still treated me with care and respect. I didn’t mind the long wait since the pizza here is definitely worth it. If you want big pizza for affordable prices, this is your best choice. They even gave me a free drink for my patience.”

“The food was incredible. I got the a la carte menu. The flavours were immaculate and only one thing topped it… THE SERVICE! I have never felt so looked after in any restaurant. Foyj, Lynch, Lewis and Luke had my friend and I in stitches and were an absolute pleasure. I wish I could tip because this experience was worth a lot more than what we paid!!”

“Lovely family run business. Very friendly. Lots of menu choices and willing to adjust menu items. Very generous portions. Soft fresh bread for sandwiches. Fresh fillings/toppings. Jacket potatoes recommended. Home-made soups available in colder weather. Can order sandwich platters for parties/work events, etc.”

“WOW! My first time eating here and I was hugely impressed! The food was incredible, super tasty and so much to choose from. The service was great and all the staff are so so friendly and helpful, they have great recommendations and knowledge of the menu if you're indecisive like me. I need to come back here soon, thank you guys :)”

“They're now open on Monday's. Just hot, delicious & authentic Thai food. Will definitely go again & recommend!. It's on a one way system & free to park after 7pm. We had the special salad as below -spicy & crunchy yummy!”

“A last minute booking to take my father out for lunch. I hadn’t been here before , and my father had mixed reviews but I thought the menu looked good. I dont know why it would have mixed reviews, the staff and food were faultless. We were welcomed warmly and seated comfortably by the window. We were attended to quickly through our visit, but never rushed. Between 3 of us we had Bruschetta, Calamari and Gamberoni to start. Followed by Pesce Spada alla Sicilian (2), and Spiedini di Pesce and finished with a cheesecake , affogato and an Espresso. My favourite dishes were the Gamberoni which was a generous portion of prawns bathing in a garlicky butter and spinach sauce, and Pesce Spada , a large piece of swordfish smothered in a rich tomato, olive and caper berry sauce with a fresh and zesty side salad. Thank you to Casa Blanca for brightening a dreary Thursday. We will see you again”

“[SHORT VERSION] One of the best Japanese food we’ve had in London. Prices were MORE than reasonable and the portions are big. You should eat here. [LONG VERSION] The Food: We first had the Yuzu Yellowtail Tiradito. The first mouthful me and my partner had, we looked at each other and said, this sort of flavours could be easily served in fine dining restaurants. Very complex sweet, sour, and a small beautiful hint of spiciness to it and then the yellowtail tasted so fresh. Not one bit of slimy/fishy smell or flavour to it. We then had the mixed tempura. There was no usual dipping sauce and we thought it was a bit sad, but when we had our first bite, it was so crunchy and tasty that too much sauce would ruin it. You could really taste the freshness of the prawn. My partner and I think that proper japanese chefs pay attention to detail, so we check how they prepare their food, and they delivered. The tails of the prawns were completely clean with no black marks at all and the vegetables were so fresh too. We also had the pork katsu curry, which had the entire bowl covered with the pork cutlet and a really powerful japanese curry sauce(very flavourful)[no photo as someone took a better one that does justice to it]. The Chef and the Place: To be honest, I found out about this restaurant passing by it early morning(it was closed) on our to the bus stop, and I checked the reviews(high). I thought we would drop by later that night. They said that they don’t do reservations as it is really a small place(mainly takeaways), with bar like setting(stools lined up along the window and along where the chef prepares sushi) and 1 small table on the side. We went in later for dinner and were surprised that there wasn’t a single Japanese staff in the place, I even looked outside to check if we were in the right place. So we’re like, ok let’s just order, we’re here already and as soon as we tasted the food, we loved it. We talked to this Sri Lankan chef and asked how the hell his food tasted this good and we all had a good laugh. He’s been in the Japanese Fine dining field for 25 years and he wanted to start his own little restaurant serving cheap but high quality food. We spent 2 hours talking about Japanese food, and how they store, prepare, and present their food. They even showed us that they use only the highest quality ingredients all the way down to the salt they use for the sushi. These guys are lovely human beings and they are also highly skilled in what they do and they need the recognition. Thank you for the lovely meal. It was a pleasure meeting you guys. P.S. Thanks for the special off-menu aburi salmon!”

“Can't fault my most recent experience at this restaurant, food exceptional, wine superb, service exceptional, Maria and her family run business really have all that's needed to ensure a fantastic culinary experience......we will definitely be back again, many thanks Mark Lewis.”

“What a fantastic experience! The staff especially waitress was incredibly kind and welcoming — truly made us feel at home from the start. We walked in without a booking and were still seated comfortably inside. The food was bursting with authentic Turkish flavor, and the service was just as impressive. Can’t wait to come back!.”
