The gentleman host is welcoming and extremely accommodating - offering substitutions and serving promptly. The food is superb - best jacket potato for miles. The prices are fair and reasonable. The atmosphere is convivial - a bright and friendly space. When you've satiated your appetite for food, don't forgot the Croydon Museum (in the same building) with exhibits from the Anglo-Saxon to the present day fashions.
This is just a lovely café in the Croydon library. Every time I go there the service is just fantastic. Attentive staff lovely food which is cooked well and filling. In my opinion this is the best café in Croydon. The prices are reasonable and portions are just right. If you visit Croydon, take your time and visit this place - you won't be disappointed ( well unless they undercook your food, then that's a different story entirely)
This is a lovely little cafe right next to the Croydon library clock tower. Not really a big fan of the interior as it's dull and ordinary, however the food is always good in here. I was here with my friend to have a small meal. I ordered the Mexican chicken baguette and he ordered a Cajun chicken sandwich. My baguette was nicely toasted and the Mexican chicken was very filling. I tried a bit of the Cajun chicken and think I will get that next time I am in Croydon.
A very simple but quiet place, excellent food I ate an omelet with chips, good. One of the waitresses is Italian, very kind and experienced in her work. I will be back. Thank you .
Beautiful hidden gem if you hadn’t heard of the cafe, it is one of this that isn’t stood out very well but my aunt brought me here today. I ordered one of the specials and my compliments to the chef as was beautifully balanced on spices and portion was bigger than expected. Enjoyed very much. When I asked if had cream - I thought pouring cream so ordered a coffee with cream, had an americano with squirty cream but did work just as well. Staff were fantastically friendly and I recommend visiting here.
Lovely cafe to go for brunch, a very spacious cafe with lots of seats. It was our second visit and the food wasn't as great as our first time but still good. I'm guessing some dishes are yummy so we just need to go more to see which ones are they. Coffees are similar for some odd reason, my mocha during my first visit was amazing but second visit wasn't as good, let's see what happens in my next visit.
I came here with a friend for the 1st time today and pleasantly surprised. Got a coffee and cake. Really like the light in the space and there's nothing quite like it close by. It was nice they had sofas so not all hard seating.
They close the first part of the cafe earlier than the other at a bit of an unusual time but otherwise really nice.
This is a beautiful heart warming cafe. The food is excellent and the staff are so caring and welcoming. It is also family friendly and has a vast variety menu to cater for all.
Tasty, reasonable and friendly service. Try the full veggie breakfast. The veggie sausages are lovely and a generous portion of beans which others skimp on. Keep it up guys. Will return.
We came on a Saturday morning/noon. Very nice staff, amazing fresh juice with ingredients of your choice and tasty fresh food with generous portion. A pleasant experience!
Went here today for an iced chai latte which was a lifesaver in this heat. The cafe looks soooo pretty when it's sunny. The staff were also super kind, with the barista attempting to make an iced version of their chai latte for us even though they do not have it formally on the menu. It turned out really good, by the way.
Lovely cafe that is just inside of the Croydon Library. The cafe is brightly lit and very welcoming for families or just a quick bite or drink while visiting the library. The food is varied and suitable for all diets. There is some shared outside seating but on the pavement side. It's not normally super busy but has and has a bubbly atmosphere.
Bright, airy, nice decor and delicious cakes. Plenty of other options for breakfast, lunch etc. Very friendly and helpful staff
Great little spot, which was surprising as I wasn't expecting much. The food was delicious, and we particularly liked the bright lighting.
Fantastic place gor meeting like minded friends and pictures and art work display around the cafe

Super cafe, basic surroundings but nice and quiet with lots of seating. Great selection of cakes..red velvet was gorgeous. Lots of savoury options too. Good value.
Staff we met were pleasant and chap serving was friendly. Fair price for a cooked breakfast at lunch time. Would have liked more chips & tomato for price. Coffee was good. Place was clean and bright. Tables were spaced nicely.
Next to the library and not expensive compared the others coffee shop.
