Top 10 Best London eating places in South Croydon

“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!”

“Friendly polite and attentive service. The food hits the spot, but they forgot to give me a fork for loaded fries :/”

“Tasty food with good prices. Pretty decor and cosy feel. Friendly waitress so can't ask for more. Wish they did a few more choices of sushi rolls”

“Navratna hosted a surprise 40th birthday party for a close family member. They were very generous in accommodating us on a Monday (when they are usually closed). We were given the entire restaurant and facilitated early entry allowing us to decorate and re-arrange the seating. Food was lovely as always and well presented despite the larger number of guests. The chef and staff were very attentive and polite throughout and served with humility. Navratna provided a memorable evening and we are very thankful for their hospitality. Highly recommended.”

“Lovely service the food out of this world. Host Edi was brilliant order came on time and she came back to make all is ok.”

“This is a very relaxed and cosy restaurant with really good food and good service my husband says it’s best Persian food in London. They also have good vegetarian options. Really good freshly made bread.”

“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 kind staff, highly recommended. Having my full English free of carbohydrates tailor made for my dietary needs while waiting for my girlfriend seeing a client.”

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

“Amazing food for excellent prices and a seemingly constant clientele confirms it's popularity”

“Loving the Purley Arms and Waynes karaoke on that one! Very welcoming to newcomers. The place is more of a pub than an Irish pub”

“I was surprised at the lower reviews. I have ordered takeaway lunch twice. First I had iddyuppam, the only slightly negative comment I can make was that aubergine portion was pretty small. Yesterday I ordered chicken kottu rotti and chicken curry, both were super tasty and I'll definitely be returning.”

“I've been going this pub since it was 'The Blacksmiths Arms' , and had my first pint here when I was 15! A carling black label that cost £1.13 . I haven't tried the food but it looks good and they do a good deal as well. And the staff are super friendly and helpful. So a rare 5 stars from me.”

“Food was tasty and nice portion sizes, look forward to coming back and trying more of the food. Service was a little bit slow but they looked like they could do with a couple more staff to help out. Other than that food was a good price and delicious, hope they serve patties and boneless options in the future.”

“I and three friends visited Crepes&Cones on Sunday 20th November unintentionally. My friends and I had planned to dine elsewhere, which was fully booked. Crepes&Cones was on our list of places to dine at in the near future, it was relatively close to the fully booked restaurant we didn’t wait for, so took a chance going to Crepes&Cones. Despite a couple of reviews saying service was slow and waiting time very long we gave it ago and so glad we did. Service was excellent and waiting time was minimal to be fair it wasn't busy, a large group came after us and a few more people later on. We had an amazing meal with generous portions. We started off with the red velvet prawns, absolutely delicious in addition to the roulette of wings, tasty. Main course didn’t disappoint, once again generous potion and delectable. Service was excellent. We were served by a young lady named Olivia, she deserves 5 stars for being attentive and hardworking, she made us feel welcome, Olivia made sure we were ok. Definitely would recommend and hope to visit again.”

“Attractive new pool and the staff are friendly. Most visitors obey the no shoes (beyond a certain point) rule. This contributes to keeping the surroundings clean and pleasant for all.”
