Cafeistasyon in Croydon

On arrival it seemed nice , we sat where I could see the kitchen , a lady preparing food was touching raw sausage, she then went on to make salads and avocado without washing her hands , whilst doing this she licked her fingers and the carried on preparing fresh food . Make us feel sick

I've been popping in for coffee and a sandwich since it opened - What a really nice place and everyone is friendly and welcoming. I'm a boring old fart and just want an old fashioned cup of coffee, the waitress didn't understand but the owner knew exactly what I wanted and made me a cup of coffee{:-) The food is excellent and plenty of it This is a must visit coffee shop *****

I endorse the previous reviews of this lovely little cafe right by Riddlesdown Station. It's clean, bright and very welcoming with excellent staff. Hasan the owner is an experienced restauranter & knows how to make customers feel at home. He has a wide ranging lunch menu to suit most tastes. It's fairly small making it more intimate but not squashed. Parking locally isn't always easy but If you are in the area it's well worth making the effort.

I visited this new cafe for lunch and was very impressed with the standard of both food and service. Had a very nicely done mushroom omelette and salad, also a latte which was the best I have had for some time - creamy and delicious. The service was really welcoming and I will definitely call again.

***CAFE ISTASYON***, Lower Barn Road, Riddlesdown, South Croydon. I decided to visit this new cafe situated on the parade of shops opposite Riddlesdown Station. It is a fantastic cafe / restaurant / deli which ~ which has been fitted out beautifully and decorated by the owner to a very high standard. He has done an amazing job, and it also has a lovely decked area outside with balustrades and beautiful flowers which make it a glorious place to go and sit out in the sun. The menu is 'extensive' and is not just your usual cafe, but has some amazing 'First Class' Lunch Specials as well as the 'All Aboard' for Breakfast specialities. I went for the large, 'Traditional Breakfast' which was very tasty and great value at £6.90, also had the large Capuccino at £3.20 which was huge and delicious, also a large fresh orange juice aswell. The staff are delightful, very friendly and can't do enough to help look after their customers. If you live locally in the Riddlesdown area it is a delight to visit and a 'destination cafe', can't wait to return.
