Delicious food cafe classics in Croydon

“We had a wonderful brunch at the Martil cafe in Croydon. The food was delicious and well presented! Generous portions and reasonably priced. The staff there were very friendly and made it a pleasant quick stop for some lunch! We ordered the Martil’s smash and eggs florentine- absolutely loved trying both!”

“Lovely breakfast, the sausages were the best around! And great prices too :-) Tony the owner is very friendly too. Will definitely be a regular spot for me!”

“Brilliant family run cafe, consistently great food and very friendly staff - my favourite cafe in London!”

“Staff very friendly and amazing food 100% recommend”

“Came in with a group for a Saturday morning brunch, we were very well looked after. Food and drinks came out quickly and was all very tasty and enjoyed by the group, whether it was a fry up or a Moroccan pancake. Great value too! Thank you to Le Bon Café, looking forwards to returning soon!”

“very nice food, clean and tidy workplace I would recommend to everyone.”

“Lovely people working there and great food if anything to cheap (you could charge a lot more).”

“Always great service and nice food. Highly recommended!!!”

“This is a great place . Excellent customer service and food is super tasty. Affordable and solid choice if you're in the area , you won't go wrong about your breakfast or meal. Thank you!”

“I come here every Friday and I get treated like a queen! I love the cafe, the staff and the FOOD! Great atmosphere and great prices! Honestly…. There is a lot of cafes in the parade, but Cafe Dino is the ONE!!!”

“If you want a quick working man's nosh this is a very good place to go. Unpretentious,,does it's job well. I recommend it.”

“I was extremely apprehensive, However I must say this place was absolutely great. Service was exceptional. Wait time for food was minimal. Quality meat, the lamb was tender. I would recommend this place to anyone. I'll definitely be back.”

“I moved to Waddon in the October of 2021. Being from the West Midlands, I loved going to the cafe with my dad when I was younger and always said that the local cafe in Birmingham would never be topped. That is until I discovered the Waddon Café. 5 stars isn’t enough for the quality of this place. Great people, great food and GREAT PRICES! (The best traditional English breakfast in London if you ask me). Can’t recommend this place enough. To the people of Waddon Café, Thankyou!”

“Great Breakfast !! Chris and his team are really friendly, great service and always hot tasty food.”

“I have lived in Croydon my whole life and had never stepped foot in this pub until yesterday, and boy have I been missing out! The pub has an entire vegan menu which is incredible and the staff were super friendly and helpful. I’d definitely recommend visiting and look forward to many more visits in future. Just one minor suggestion, having some vegan dessert options on your menu would save me a trip to the next door pub for my sweet fix :) otherwise, loved this place and will definitely be back! :)”

“Hot desk friday at the store. Bottomless coffee and snacks :) I liked sharing the space with other people working out there. In these times of working from home its nice to take a break from home and go sit and work from cafe. I am glad Croydon has such place for us.”

“Best pizzas in South London! Really excellent. Cosy local with a good pint of Fuller’s. Shows the footie too. Nice!”

“Excellent food, and great prices. A market cafe at its best.”

“Good service. Nice place to sit and chill for a bit. Coffee tasted great too. Perfect”

“The branch of Cafe Giardino at Centrale is quite big. There is a sitting area inside the cafe as well as the outside seats in the middle of the shopping centre but that area closes in the afternoon. I liked the selections of fillings and bread selection.”

“One our favourite Surrey Street friends ☺️ The best coffee on the street, hands down!”

“Highly recommend this Harvester for food. Amazing and very helpful staff, thank you to our waitresses Kayla & Mandy for everything, and to the general manager Dave for attending to an accident my partner had with his glass. Couldnt fault this on anything today!! Will 100% be returning again. Best place to go! Also a massive thank you to the Chefs Gemma & Ellie, food was amazing and cooked perfectly.”

“Came specifically for the scones and clotted cream and jam. Not on the menu, just ask for them. They are served fresh and warm. Excellent!”

“Best Italian I have ever had. Came here a while back with my husband and we will definitely be dining here again in the near future. Ordered the Pasta Bolognese and paired it with a glass of Salice Salentino Riserva... absolutely out of this world. My tastebuds were literally bowing down to this incredible meal.”

“My mum took us here on the off chance for brunch, lovely food, great service. We're looking forward to coming back and tasting the dinner menu. For the three of us, our bill came to just over £40 and we were all very full!”

“Wonderful lunch and coffee. It's just out of sight off the road but what a find. They make a Sri-Lankan chicken on a Friday that is absolutlely lovely but it's so popular it's gone in a shot!”
