Le Bon Cafe in Croydon

Nice clean and fast. Had the pancakes, scrambled eggs and sausages with mint tea. My friend had eggs benedict and also a smoothie. Lovely local cafe. I'll definitely go back. Works out to around £10-15 pp.

Very disappointing. Chips cool and limp, burgers dry with minimal coleslaw side in thimble size dish. We found two splinters of bacon in the chicken and bacon panini.

The service , food and atmosphere was excellent. We have been here a few times now since I moved in the area. One memorable day we arrived quite later nearly closing time and it was Ramadan so the manager was about to head off but he stayed on to cook us a meal to take away. If you a coffee person they do the best coffee around,reminds me of the cafes in Paris. Well done guys keep it up.

Came here a few months ago once the restaurant scene was able to reopen during COVID. The staff weren't wearing masks at the same, which was worrying, but I had the most delicious Chicken escalope panini here and occasionally find myself thinking about it... Need to go back!!

Had a big old traditional breakfast this morning and enjoyed every bit of it. The portions are quite generous and we loved the Moroccan decor.

So we went to Le Bon Cafe in the morning or shell I say afternoon 12.30pm after having a long night out and waking up at home with no breakfest. Food was amazing service was excellent and decor and atmosphere was elegant. Service was friendly and busy restaurant. Keep it up 💯👌

Ioana, you are the star in this coffee shop! Make the best coffee and the best food in whole Croydon. Thank you!!!

This place does literally the best coffee of anywhere. Uncomplicated with little fuss. It’s hot and a great home blend and they are meticulous about cleaning and maintaining their machine. it’s the same every day - they don’t fiddle with it like some of these artisan coffee shops. I don’t live in croydon but I pass most days. Sometimes I drive here when I’m not due to be passing! Staff are great at their jobs, friendly and welcoming to everyone. Over the years I see all sorts of people here from every walk of life - families, groups of men, groups of women, parents with babies and people like me just wanting a quick breakfast coffee and wrap that is prepared just the way I like it every day. There’s a steady stream of people on their way to work grabbing the coffee. I think their best food centres around their Moroccan wraps. They look like they grill and cook things on site as I can smell it being prepared in the morning. I don’t eat the breakfast fry ups so I can’t comment on that. But the Coffee - See for yourself!

So love this little café, excellent food and lots to choose from. The owner is extremely friendly and so are the staff. Highly recommend and well worth a visit. Plus it is always busy which is a good sign.

This little North African jem was recommended by a work colleague and it did not dissappoint. The food is freshly cooked, the place is clean, staff are friendly and reasonably priced. Will be back soon!

Spotlessly clean, warm, comfortable and welcoming, they also served about the best poached eggs ever. Worth the walk from the hotel for a much better breakfast at half the price.

Excellent halal restaurant tasty food friendly staff affordable full marks highly recommended excellent ambience would love to go again

Well worth a visit- popped in for breakfast and the Moroccan Briwat was top notch - a great tasty snack compared to the normal breakfast offerings in South Croydon

One of the best cafes in Croydon. The food is absolutely top notch with service to match. Not to be missed!

Visited here as part of a large family group (9 of us). Very patient staff who gave us time to sort ourselves out before ordering. Paninis (chicken escalope and cheese) were good and freshly prepared. My children had ham and cheese paninis which were great. Food came out at the same time for everyone which was good. Overall a pleasant place to eat. Staff were very friendly and attentive.

Very nice cafe. Good service with excellent food and very good value for money. I will be returning for the eggs benedict with smoked salmon as it comes with properly made hollandaise sauce and not stuff out of a jar.

I so love coming here, it is beautifully decorated with quirky little items hanging everywhere. Very clean with loads of tables. The food is delicious especially the baklava it is so moist. I do hope this café does well as it is a hidden treasure.

May be it’s just an off day but we won’t be giving it another go.

Went in for Lunch on a Saturday afternoon. The ambience is very cafe like and very homely. We ordered quite a few Moroccan mezes which all tasted really good. But the show stopper had to be their Lamb Tagines. It was succulent and perfectly well cooked. Highly recommend it. £33 for 4 people.

Hemos venido aquí a menudo, ya sea para el brunch en un fin de semana o para el almuerzo. La calidad y variedad de la comida es excelente. El personal es amable y el lugar es limpio. Recomendaría a cualquiera que venga a visitar si son locales o viajar por la zona. Tampoco hacen gran batidos de frutas más saludables o super. Ambos son estupendos. Es familiar, y los precios son geniales. Está dirigido para aquellos que quieren la leche de soya con té y café y toda la carne es halal.

I visit le bon cafe about once a fortnight it's a nice sandwich bar/cafe the morrocan pancake is my favourite served with couscous and hummus

Es de locos no he revisado este lugar todavía. He estado obsesionado con ella por más de 3 - 4 años ahora, y han conseguido llegar a mis amigos y familia en el vagón de la banda!

Had a very nice chicken and vegetable couscous here (with onions and raisins) as a lunch-stop. Had been meaning to visit for a while - very nicely presented cafe - will certainly visit again! Tea was good too!

Took my car to Kinghams for a service and got a free breakfast voucher for Le Bon Cafe. Great breakfast and friendly staff. I will return!

Ahora, aquí es un lugar que merece tener éxito. Escondido al lado de un Zizzi y tanto en el frente y una franja de grandes restaurantes, con aspiraciones, es una pequeña joya. Pequeño, acogedor y confortable, es una combinación de café general muy bueno y una restaurante modesto pero representante de Marruecos. El menú es bastante sensato pero conciso, ni mucho menos, tiene una gran variedad y está claro que todo está preparado en la cocina poco detrás del mostrador principal y no es de ninguna manera asistida por el freno o los titanes de hermanos 3663. El servicio es alegre, acogedor, amable y eficiente, la comida es genial, no hay otra palabra para ello, y la variedad de bebidas alcohólicas es testimonio de su patrimonio marroquí. No es autorizada por el alcohol. Interesante el almuerzo o la cena que está cerca de la cocina casera real y a precios verdaderamente modesto que sería un largo camino, para mejor decir, Marrakech. Almuerzo, dos comidas y bebidas: £12.50. Una gran sonrisa.

a nice little cafe/sandwich bar the moroccan pancakes are great served with hummus and couscous and the omelettes are great too.

Often visit the Cafe for brunch after the gym, great please for value and good choice of food including some Moroccan food, specially like the falafel Salad, but most of the time have their breakfast, if you are really hungry try their big breakfast but be warned the portion sizes are huge.. waitress always friendly..

I had the Spanish Omelette served with salad and a reasonable portion amount of chips, served with Cappuccino. There was amazing service from when we entered to when we left. I was intrigued by the traditional artefacts and painting portraits displayed on the walls which give it a unique Moroccan theme. I am bound to visit Le Bon Cafe again very soon.

Had Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon served by the chef great value and very pleasant staff. Good coffee.

Great stuff always good and enjoyable good value . Good coffee friendly staff and cab pre order big for those breakfast meetings at work

Had late breakfast there Saturday morning , had egg Benedict was 1st class, my partner had similar was also good. service was quick and friendly,it was warm and comfortable. the only very minor negative was that the newspapers provided were yesterdays.

Does great brekkie. Go there when u r Hank and order the le Bon big break fast. That will sort you out for the day. Only thing I will say is that mushrooms let the breakfast down as they are tinned mushrooms.

Went to Le Bon for breakfast and it was ok. Ingredients were of a basic standard and not special. At least the price matched.

Really loved this place. After a long journey with the family, called in here for just a coffee and a cold drink. But after smelling the food on offer, we decided to make it an early lunchMy favourite was the coriander chicken and hummus Moroccan pancake. Could tell it was made with fresh ingredients, and lovely spices. The meatballs in the meatball pasta were beautifully flavoured too - not remotely the usual oregano and basil flavour you usually associate with pasta and meatballs. But so much better!The wraps too were apparently really delicious. Very friendly staff made this visit complete. The latte was average, but that's entirely forgivable, as for me this cafe will never be about the coffee. It's the meatballs that I'll remember most. And good value too.

The best tajine you'll get outside of Agadir! The place doubles as a regular cafe, sandwiches, teas etc, during the day time, or you can always pick from the small but perfectly formed Moroccan menu. The prices for the Moroccan menu are maybe a little higher than one would expect considering that the place does present like a normal cafe rather than a restaurant. Don't get me wrong, the food is absolutely worth it, but it's not the first place you'd think to go for a special occasion meal, for example, and that is a real shame, as the food amply deserves to have a lot more people try it!As for us, well, we love going there when we can. I recommend the kofta tajine (with egg, must have the egg!) and the chicken couscous is just delicious. The food in general is beautifully bursting with spices and flavours, but not too hot. If you can't go to Morocco, but crave its food, this is the next best thing. Give it a try!

Two friends and I went for brunch, I had a standard breakfast of egg, bacon, sausages etc and waitress had no problem in changing my order slightly. My two friends had eggs Benedict, one with bacon and the other with salmon. At first the hollandaise sauce looked too white but it tasted nice but not as rich as the typical sauce.service was prompt and polite, cafe nice and cleanI would definitely come here again and try something different

Nestled in the heart of Croydon's restaurant quarter, this charming open fronted cafe really is a little gem. My wife and I love to come here for lazy Sunday afternoon breakfasts, and always leave feeling pleasantly satisfied.The menu is an interesting mix of traditional cafe fare, as well as Moroccan food- which adds an interesting twist to your dining experience.They keep standard cafe hours (closed by 6pm) and a real plus point is that they accept card payments, which is something that I've never really seen in most cafes.I definitely recommend a visit.

Went for Sunday Family breakfast....staff were friendly, food good but not spectacular.Had the traditional English breakfast which was good, clean and edible. Coffee that came with the breakfast (included) was filtered and quite tasteless.WE did not partake in any Moroccan Dishes but perhaps on another time will.The waiter was from Bangladesh and the waitress from Spain !The restaurant is in the Food Zone in South Croydon and has many other venues vying for trade.

Food was ok, average. Reasonable salad at a reasonable cost, £5. Staff not very friendly which was a shame. Service matters!

Lovely Moroccan dishes served at this restaurant located in South Croydon. I just wish more people would try the wonderful Moroccan food on offer rather than the ubiquitous all day English breakfast fare. Fresh ingredients are used here and it shows. The Coriander chicken pancakes with couscous, hummus and salad is a triumph.

Excellent value but the eggs with hollandaise sauce was a little disappointing. There wasn't much sauce and it wasn't hot enough. There were half a dozen of us having a meeting, and the staff got confused about who had ordered what. I don't have any complaints and may well go back if I'm in the area, but I won't make a detour to go there.

From the roadside, a cursory glance shows this establishment to appear English or French. I did not realize before ordering that my bacon and chicken was halal; labelling could be clearer.The cafe had a good ambience; the atmosphere made for a relaxing meal. Staff were polite, friendly and helpful. My server's English was weak and they were in no hurry to clear tables.Customer restroom facilities were fine.

Disappointed that the 'traditional' breakfast served turkey bacon without stating so on the menu. The food was well cooked but the only indication that it wasn't real bacon was the Halal symbol in Arabic in the corner of the menu. I didn't notice this before ordering, when the food arrived I discovered it was serving Turkey bacon and presumably non pork sausages. It should be labelled as such on the menu. Or it should not be labelled as a traditional breakfast!

Ate in here over a year ago & decided to go back today.Wow just as good.We had the meze to share. Wonderful flavours & textures.The Moroccan pancakes are divine. I had the coriander chicken pancake, this was served with humus & couscous. At under £5 an absolute bargain-fest!!!The tagines are superb and again very reasonably priced.The Moroccan mint tea is a must!! One piece of advice - ask for a pot. This is served in a silver Moroccan teapot with small glasses to drink out of.We ate & drank our fill for less than £38 for three people. Fantastic!!Staff are superb. The owner takes great pride in his fresh produce and is more than happy to explain dishes & ingredients.Would highly recommend.Booking a must as this is a small cafe and is very popular.

I've visited this excellent little cafe twice in the last couple of weeks - both times for breakfast with friends. Staff are friendly. Cafe is beautiful and clean - much nicer than most cafes. Breakfast menu is surprisingly generous. I had the vegetarian option and it was BIG, HOT AND DELICIOUS! I can't wait to come back and try their main menu. They are also very patient with children - another massive positive. Definite thumbs up - MUST VISIT.
