Baxfood Caribbean in Croydon

Staff are lovely. I like to order veggie patties from here as I’m vegetarian. It tastes flavourful and authentic. The veggie patties are always available too, which I’m grateful for as other Caribbean takeaways I go to often do not have it available.

Food was nice but portions v.small. Not great value for money !!!

Food too oily and had very little flavour. I had to add my own seasonings.

Enjoyed the food, very nice staff and owner. Would recommend!

We ordered curry mutton and rice. The dish was very dry and had very little meat in both portions. Also ordered orange cake and was very disappointed with the size of portion. I had a takeaway from Baxford a while ago and was disappointed with the portion size then. Nothing has changed, I won’t order from here again. £40 for 2 meals which was mainly rice.

Food was average. It lacked flavour and was not worth the cost.

Always recieve fantastic service. Food as not only tasty, it's piping hot. Love Bax, a family favourite x

This would be my death row meal. The seasoning in the jerk is next level good 👌I've had take away from other places where the jerk sauce is just that sweet BBQ sauce

this is not Caribbean. this is shocking. how did you get away with selling this on just eat

Not one to usually leave reviews. To call yourself a Caribbean restaurant is an insult. I’m so glad I only made a small order. Hands down one of the worst Caribbean shops I’ve been to in London. No flavour no spice just some dry chicken. Don’t waste your hard earned money you’ll be mad upon arrival.

Oordered large boneless chicken rice and peas - disappointingly small amount of chicken provided.

I have never bought food that I had to throw away after a few mouth fulls like dis. Rice & peas was a joke, some king of old tasting long rice. Oxtale no taste and reheated. Roti not fresh, bbq wings must have been so old and had heathers bad food😡!

Arguably the best Carribbean takeaway in Croydon, the only slight issue (for me) is their portion sizes (too small for my liking). Apart from that, their food is super delicious. I give them a 9/10 rating.

Ordered 2 oxtail meals and the taster platter Rice lacking flavour, missing coconut and scallion. Coleslaw was a watery mess containing cucumber! The wings, no spice to the jerk and BBQ just tasted sweet no smokiness and full of hairs. Only thing decent was the fritter which could not save the £44 I spent. Save your money to spend elsewhere

Had some lovely food today from here been to a few places before and this tops the lot for me .mmmmmmmmmm

I ask for curry Goat but recive small portion of dry lamb with same rice tasteless, no sauce at all and the price £13.80!!!! For this Jark chicken £11 1 and 1/2 leg with rice !!!! Are you kidding!!! Sorry won't go there anymore

Ordered a take out from here yesterday and is the worst Caribbean food I’ve ordered. None of it genuine flavours. Plus I got it with delivered which took a little over an hour to arrive. Very disappointed and will never be going back here

Just simply always the best food, i appreciate yal🙏🏽

Not a lot of food for the money but very nice

Curry mutton so good the best take away around see you soon x

This has to be one of the worst Caribbean food I have ever had wasted my money. Ordered JERK CHICKEN it wasn’t jerk chicken more like roasted chicken with chilli no taste at all. Don’t not order from here you will regret it

only received one portion of my patties that i ordered not happy.

I’ll haven’t received my food he hasn’t knocked on my door, he didn’t even contact me

It was with the driver not moving for a long time. Uber eats is so much quicker please try and fix this

Please can you tell your drivers to read the notes. He drive round for ten minutes pointlessly

clearly not actual homemade food in any way

I never do reviews. A place has to be ridiculously horrid for me to do this. Disgusting. To be named Caribbean food is a shambles. Caribbean food has amazing flavours, this was veryyyyyy much the opposite. Dry, no flavours and literally the WORST ‘Caribbean’ food I’ve ever had. Read the reviews and DO NOT eat here and waste your money.

I'll just say this. I've eaten from here twice in one week. Absolutely fantastic and flavoursome food. Thank you.

Very tasty will come back again

I've never tried Caribbean before but it was delicious! I had the jerk chicken 😋 Thank you so much would definitely recommend and will going back when I'm in purley next. 👍👍

Well wat can I say ..jerk chicken that tasted like bland dry roast chicken no heat or jerk taste at all...and as for the pea soup not one whole kidney bean NO meat everywhere I usually get has meat 2 dumplings well I think they were dumplings my little finger is bigger and to top it all wat was in the soup was swimming around in purple water so you can see wat I think of baxfood ...I would rather mc Donald's

Your food is amazing!!!! Thankyou

food and service provided was exceptional as always. Thank you All.

This has got to be one of the most friendliest takeaway spots in London the customer service is so good and the food is great too.

Hot, tasty, good flavour. Really enjoyed.

If there was 0 rating I would have done! Awful food

The food is edible don’t get me wrong but there is just no flavour whatsoever very bland.. Beef Pattie was nice

I paid for 2x beef patties & i only received one i’m not happy about that

Food is delicious every time, keep up the great work!

Food was awful by far the worst carribean I’ve ever been to x

Food always freshly made. I have to make a pit stop anytime I’m in the area

Dumplins were the best we've had to date !

this time it needed more flavour curry goat but all sides were excellent

food was really good ordered the brown stew chicken with veg and rice and peas. only thing i can say was the bones were breaking really small and brittle and it was quite fatty but the mac and cheese was amazing and the plantain was so good too

Fresh, tastefulllll, hot food. Absolutely lovely thank you

The wrap was inedible as it was wet, covered in juice/grease from the steak. Have a picture of this if needed

Missing the 2 dumplings and 2 festivals

I get takeaway food from here regularly.I must say they do the best Caribbean food.never disappoint.a happy new year to all your staff!

I think for the price one pays and the quantity you recieve is outrageous. the meal order was for two people. the Ackee & Saltfish ordered was decent but the quantity I received was outrageous. overall good service in terms of quality ie taste flavour is very good but the price for what I've ordered and tge portions received is unjust and not right. 😒 👎🏾

Macaroni portion small kid size and powdery. Chicken soup brown. Oxtail and j.chicken waste and all tasteless even all dishes over seaaoned with thyme and rosemary sorry but £26 was not worth a penny. Can't re order here noway was desperado this time but drop me out now smh

Everything about this order is awful and gave us the wrong order

My order was 20mins later that the latest listed time (took 1hr40mins). Then there were items missing which were only ordered to eat with other items, which means 2 items that did arrive were wasted and I can't even claim for a refund for them.

Love the food and service. Best Caribbean food I’ve had. ❤️

Always great food, great taste touch wood never had a complaint.

Super nice food will definitely be coming back for more than 10 /.10

Late over 40 mins food was cold I had no gravy with the pepper steak unreal!!

The food didn’t come and now they’re closed. Terrible. Tried to call 3 times and didn’t answer.

Wheres our food please as its not here?

Nice food but felt the portions were small

Great service and excellent food!!!

Great food, very tasty! Definitely my favourite take away around :)

Òrdered food , delivery was supposed to be between 20.05 / 20.35 ...raised query ,delivery then put to 21.00hrs ... Rung restaurant, to be told they would get hold of driver , asked to call back ... gave them 10mins , called back 4 times no answer , no food , and over £40 down

Had regular take aways from Baxwood and the quality of food is consistently great. Tried dumplings for first time and they were fabulous.

Food was ok, very mediocre- the rice and peas wasn’t the typical rice and peas, the coleslaw was not home made, the Mac and cheese had not a lot of flavour. The curry mutton didn’t come with a lot of gravy. The dumplings were actually nice.

Food was amazing throughly enjoyable and reasonably priced

Great food and plenty of spice. Unfortunately took just under an hour and a half to arrive.

Proper food - not the usual takeaway rubbish

Lovely cooked and tasty food 👍

I love their food so much, my regular shop know thank you 😊 💐🌟🔥🔥💯

Greatest food and best Carribbean food easily around 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

Chicken soup was delicious ! Oxtail could be fresher.

*edited* FAST-FORWARD A WEEK AND YES ANOTHER OUTSTANDING MEAL!!! Delicious!! Thank you! ** I ordered the oxtail with white rice, dumplings, coleslaw and prawn fritters and let me tell you… the delivery was quick! I am SOOOOO happy to have found this lovely Caribbean restaurant! The food was so good we had to call them right away to thank them and let them know it was much appreciated! The rice was cooked to perfection, the oxtail was tender and bursting with flavour and don’t even get me started on the fresh and fluffy dumplings! The lady who picked up the phone was so lovely, professional and polite! Such a win for us! Will most definitely be supporting this business once again! Now mi belly FULLA goodness!! Thank you 🩵🩵 kudos to the chef!!

Missing items and couldn't eat it as the meat was so tough, everything was so dry, ordering something else now

Dry mutton sandwich. Tasted great but dry like a bicycle saddle with not a single vegetable in sight. Pretty poor really. Potential in the flavour but certainly no cigar. Should have taken it back.

I never write reviews but this is a joke. I order as a main, barbecue chicken and another mutton. The mutton and rice was DRY and the barbecue chicken badd, I could Smell and Taste the cheap barbecue sauce from the corner shop. The taste is horrible is like eating rice and Ketchup ! It doesn’t even taste like barbecue. Oh and is also dry . Sorry but common !

Baxfood is the perfect takeaway. Me and my partner order from here often and we are never disappointed. Everything tastes delicious and unlike most takeaways the food tastes homemade and isn't greasy. Also great if you have allergies, the restaurant provided really clear allergy advice which is really reassuring. If you want a Caribbean then eat here

For the price there was 90% rice and 10% meat squashed on top. Meat was dry with very little sauce. Disappointed.

This is quite possibly the best takeaway me and my partner have ever had. Everything tastes great and homemade. Not greasy in the slightest. We love this place and order far too much; but it is fine: you never feel horrid after eating from here.

Fantastic food, fantastic flavors, awesome meal. We cannot get enough of this magic restaurant in Purley!!

Amazing food, Really well cooked and good portions.

Horrendous service. Food tasted horrible. Never again

AVOID! I don’t write reviews but honestly this was the worst possible ‘Caribbean’ food I’ve ever tasted in my entire life. I’m almost certain that the chef is not not even 1% Caribbean with the monstrosity they cooked. Do not waste your money I would have been better off ordering frozen chicken and chips from the corner shop. I’m in utter shock and disbelief that they haven’t closed down by now. There was no flavour just powdered seasoning oil and water. The only thing I enjoyed was the can of Diet Coke. Hire a new chef or close down please because this is ridiculous.

STAY AWAY!!! Absolutely diabolical! Not authentic Caribbean at all! I ordered seabass, rice and peas. It had no flavour whatsoever and in a small container for £13!!!! A small pot if okra and pak choi thr whole thing cost £24!!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. I FEEL DISAPPOINTED AND RIPPED OFF!!

The curried mutton was divine! Great level of spicing. Mini dumplings were a big hit. Would definitely recommend eating here!

You call this Caribbean food? I'm offended. And I'm not even Caribbean. Rice&peas = plain white rice. Oxtail - no gravy, but that's not even the main issue, it's literally TASTELESS. The only thing that tasted the way it's meant to was the 4.5 pieces of plantain lmao it was disgusting and I ended up putting it into the bin. Basically paid £30 for plantain. Fml P.s. how did you manage to make brocoli taste like fish?

The chicken was very dry. There was no flesh on it. No meat to chew. It was like eating cardboard and my husbands rice tasted like it was really fried.

Curry Chicken was over cooked and dry, wasn’t as flavoursome as other. Rice was over cooked and mushy

My dogs food smells more appetising than this. I know wee aren’t spoilt for choice around here with food. But seriously save your money and get subway instead. This was disgusting

The chicken wasn’t fresh. Kept in the freezer for a long time.

On my first visit to BAXFOOD Caribbean I was captivated by the filled dumplings. You can choose Jerk meat or tofu mushroom so I got the tofu mushroom as not many places offer that. Basically it was like a savoury donut sliced in half and filled with Jerk. It was really tasty with the tofu puffs and mushrooms but I found it quite spicy. I managed to get to sample their festival and oxtail with butterbeans which were so delicious. Somehow I had a craving for their dumplings so went back. Most dumplings that you see are already fried and sitting there until you buy them. I was really surprised that the dumplings are fried to order at Baxfood. Having them straight from the fryer tastes very different. They are soft when they are hot and as they cool down they have a chew to them, this time I had it a non Jamaican way with melted Camembert and it was so good. The dumplings on their own taste savoury and there is a unique taste that I cannot describe but it was nice.

Another great meal from Bax. Speedy and friendly delivery staff

Rice not as expected in terms of description and flavour; small portion even though it was regular size.

I cannot believe how disappointed I was in the food. This was not made by a true a Caribbean. Even the vegetables were appalling. I will not be ordering from here again.

Can never go wrong with Baxfood

My son ordered take-out food for the family which included a red peas soup. The soup looked as if they added water to the bottom of an empty pot and served, it tasted and looked nothing like authentic red peas soup. The boneless jerk chicken and rice and peas was spicy and lacked flavour and seasoning. Fried dumplings were greasy and tasteless. As a person of Jamaican heritage this is not authentic Caribbean food.

Excellent Carribbean food will definitely use again

Not really jerk chicken and the sauce is the worst I’ve ever had. Chicken was dry as well😭

Lovely food good size amount of food for price

Only after ordering did I realise its a Chinese takeaway trying to cook Caribbean food also. Food is seasoned incorrectly and no gravy on the fried chicken with white rice, just served dry.. Would not recommend and definitely won't be returning.. disappointing

Red pea soup was bland. Dumplings and fritters were very oily
