Great taste at this Turkish Restaurant. It has been in business since 2017 and is a great addition to the Croydon food scene. We have enjoyed it several times and highly recommend it.
Atesh Turkish Restaurant

In my opinion, the best gourmet food in Croydon. This restaurant is similar to what you would find in Central London without the crowds. Indian food with flair! This restaurant has won many awards and is listed in the Michelin Guide as a plate recommendation. I would suggest any of their "Signature" Dishes. If you go to one restaurant in Croydon, this should be it!

The Spread Eagle Pub & Theatre-
Very polite and efficient service. Best Pub food we have encountered thus far. We initially went in because we liked the name "Spread Eagle Ale and Pie Shop". There is a theatre upstairs, but we have not been to give a review.
