Nice little pub. Had the fish n chips with mushy peas and a side order of onion rings. It was very tasty, though the fish wasn't that big but pretty average size compared to others. No complaints and would definitely go again.

Great pub, was staying at the Hilton (overnight business stay) and drove past this pub on route. Stopped for a pint and stayed for food - amazing portions/quality and very reasonably priced. £5.70 for a pint of Peroni also! Would recommend!

I visited this Pub today after my Father's funeral with some of the other funeral guests.The Manager came outside and asked one of our guests he couldn't drink a soft drink he had,which he was fine with.She then told him he needed ID to drink,I get the think 25,but her attitude was aggressive standing in the pub garden staring aggressively,when we explained we had just been to my fathers funeral,she replied that's not my problem.My problem is his attitude,of which there wasn't one.only her attitude,and the other bar staff could learn to smile too

I was staying at local hotel and their food was awful, so took a stroll and found this traditional pub. A huge after work crowd outside however found a table inside ordered food and a glass of very good wine. Made to feel very welcome and the food was absolutely lovely, freshly cooked with quality ingredients. Next time I stay in Croydon I will definitely be back.

Lovely local pub with a solid outdoor seating area. Decent little food menu served until 9pm and Peroni on tap, can't complain. Personally I'd love some more 'comfy sofa/fireplace' seats, but that's just my preference for pubs! Can get a bit busy from time to time (but where doesn't).

I went on my anniversary ❤️ a nice time with parents they joined us My dad being elderly wanted to go to the washroom and I was directing my dad The lady who was serving just stopped my dad and said u r not allowed and it's for customers only When she was the same one who served us Just felt that was inappropriate and very rude When I mentioned it to her she just smiled there was no apology nothing I think manners and etiquette is needed I understand if the washroom is for customers but if we were served I don't think that was the way to approach or at least apologize

Food is always good here and staff are always friendly. They have a nice outside area, and when the sun is out it's the perfect place to be. Part of the outside is covered and has heaters so you are covered for all seasons. Also has an upstairs with its own bar which can be hired out for functions.

No hats If I had an illness / medical / religious reason to wear a hat would I be told to remove it or I will not be served and asked to leave because the manager doesn't like it for security reasons? Sounds like a policy that need to be addressed You don't have signage about dress code and you should not be telling people what and how they can dress. The next thing you be telling the public about what race, tall, short, how many fingers, do you have more than £5 to your name the list can go on. I'm a member of the public you are a public bar.

Hats are not allowed, so as someone that does wears hats, it was a waste of my time to go there. They didn’t mention if there were any other dress codes, so if you don’t wear a hat, you could risk it. If you do wear a hat definitely don’t go. But the food at least looked good and there was free wifi. Good patio space

Stopped in for a drink after a long walk and decided to have food. We had the chicken and beef roasts. Really delicious! Meat was flavourful and well cooked with a great selection of veg. Yorkshire was made from scratch which was both fab and difficult to find often! Best part was the gravy and potatoes were the stars! Sticky toffee pud sounded good but we were too full. Next time!

The Place is empty, you might find a couple old builders sitting around having a pint. Food is old and out the freezer, definitely not made by a Chef. The manager is a rude middle aged woman who speaks disrespectfully to her customers. She is constantly taking your drinks and discarding them to make you pay for an alternative. If you're looking for some food please visit Box park is round the corner. Also many bars and pubs all over Croydon. AVOID THIS PLACE .

Do not try and use their bathrooms!!!! After driving 1.5hrs for an appointment at the Sopra Steria Centre next door we all needed a restroom. Quickly popped into the pub to ask if we could use the facilities. They flat out refused, citing no kids allowed and only customers can use facilities. I even offered to pay to use the facility as a paying customer I'd be willing to buy a drink, however they simply refused! My wife and I, accompanied by our 8yr old daughter and 10 yr old son then went to the Sopra Steria centre and their friendly staff kindly let us use their facilities. I understand we weren't paying customers and only in need of the facilities but that's one way to ensure I never frequent this pub, I'll also be sure to never promote your pub. C'mon man have some common sense!!! Joke

At 9:15am I saw a guy enjoying his coffee in one of this pub's outdoor tables. I then entered (there were no signages saying no entry) the outdoor premises to get a coffee but realised the pub has not opened yet. I decided to sit down for a while but then a few minutes later theres is this staff/manager or even owner who came up to me and just said, "Hey (signalling with her hand as if instructing me to stand up and leave)! It's private!" I thanked her and sincerely apologised for using their private outdoor facility. I thought a pub is called a 'pub' because it originated from the word public. I just found her approach a bit intimidating so I thought I'd leave this less significant review.

The place is fine, nice little pub with a beer garden out front (though obviously right on the road so affected by traffic but can't change that). Inside was small, but well decorated. Staff behind the bar was friendly enough. Felt like a 'locals' pub, and whilst there was sport on TV, it didn't really feel like a spot to go and watch a game.

I met a friend for a quick lunchtime drink in this little gem of a pub. I have driven passed it many times and it always looks inviting and mostly busy. We didn't want to go into central Croydon and this pub is only a very short walk from Wellesley Road (the main drag), where my friend was working. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and they seem to have a good selection of beers, though I'm no expert. The decor inside is rustic and charming with low beamed ceilings and traditional fittings. To find a pub of this calibre down a back street in Croydon was a very welcome surprise and I would definitely recommend it.

Racist staff: We are arrived at Bedford tavern at around 21:30 . My partner used the toilet straight away. When she came out to reach me as we were looking for a table to seat , one of the staff , Caroline, approached us advising us to leave . When we asked the reasons why she just stated “ you had enough to drink” . When we asked on what bases she made this comment she replied to partner :” oh it’s the way you walked to the toilet “ . Myself and my partner we spent the afternoon packing out luggage and decided to have a drink before leaving England as we are planned to spend a month abroad . We asked for evidence as we have not been given a proper explanation. We have been client to dame put for few occasions as it’s only few minutes walk from home . We did not approach anyone and when we further asked for reason my partner had been pushed and threatened to leave . We encouraged the staff to call for the police but she didn’t . We had been approached by other patrons , all white , that were questioning what was happening. One patron told us alongside with the staff “ you don’t need a reason you just need to leave when you are told to”. I wonder if this is linked to racial reasons or other discriminatory factors as we are both black n queers .

I re-visited the House of Fraser Croydon branch of Caffe Nero and to my lack of surprise they have not changed. The same crappy service from the same unenthusiastic staff members. I'm curious do Caffe Nero job specs require you to be miserable to be in with a chance of an interview! I asked for my drink to be extra hot as I always do and have done for years but woe betold, the older staff member had to heat the drink in the microwave as she said she could be burn her hands. Well I didn't realise she was heating up the milk directly in her hands and here I was thinking the machine was doing all the work ! 🤔 When I went to scan my Three code, as I always do from a screenshot, I was told it had to be from the app as the updates could cause the till register to stop working. OMG tell someone who knows nothing.....what the fish type of made up poo is that. Well between the 2 members of staff if they had a brain MI6 would be head hunting them, but they ARE NOT ! People we are safe.....for now. That is the end of the rant and the announcement! Moral of the story: AVOID CAFFE NERO HOUSE OF FRASER CROYDON! 👌👌👌
