Papayaya in Bromley

A must-try if you come across South Bromley. Just a few steps away from the train station. Loved their beef nasi goreng, very flavourful. 🥰

Nice food, friendly atmosphere

The food arrived 90 minutes after we ordered. When it arrived it was greasy and needed heating up. It did not taste good at all.

What a great find! The food was amazing, really fresh flavours. And my Malaysian friend said she found it more authentic than most UK restaurants. The decor/ambiance is a bit basic but the food is wonderful, I will be coming again.

The original delivery time is 18:10 to 18:30 however the food arrived at 19:10.

Delicious. Got as a takeaway and it was incredible. Roti canal was great and tasted like the real deal, kang Kong was great and so was the Tom Yum. Would return!

Our first visit to Bromley for many years we found this resturant on the way up from the station at lunch time .The ataff were friendly and helped us choose a selection of dishes .The food was gòod .

Came with my elderly parents and young child. The kids menu is really worth it and huge portion of rice. My parents come often and like the staff as respectful and kind. Food is tasty and reasonable. Will definitely come again.

i love this restaurant! one of the best in bromley, perfect if you're a solo diner or in a group. service is decent, you're not always harassed by someone at a table constantly asking you how everything is which i like! beautiful nasi goreng as well

Food very nice and cooked well. Highly recommend.

Very very impressed by Papayaya! An unassuming cafe/restaurant in Bromley that really delivers. The menu is extensive and every time I visit everything I eat - fried tofu, veggie nasi goreng, Thai vegetable curry, spicy noodles and roti with curry - was delicious. The roti was especially good. Prices are reasonable. Service is always so friendly, helpful and courteous. I will definitely keep returning - excited to have found such a great new spot.

Thank you to delivery for coming in freezing rain and cold

Only giving it 3 stars because I went with my girlfriend who is vegetarian. So she asked for the vegetarian green curry. They said "so fish sauce is okay?" She said no, she wanted the veggie one. And they said "no fish sauce? So the vegan one then" But fish sauce isn't vegetarian. Which means some vegetarians might have eaten fish sauce. Hopefully nobody allergic to the stuff ate it. My food was great though.

Pretty good. The char keoy teow had 'wok hey' (the seared taste from the wok frying. The black bean sauce beef horfun was a little too salty, but decent. The Malaysian curry laksa was creamy and tasty. All very good portions. They had a lunch menu which was good value but didn't include the dishes we wanted to try. Overall, decent quality and good portions. Staff friendly, polite and helpful.

An unexpected treat! Looks pretty unassuming but the food is absolutely delicious! Had the spicy chicken wings, the roti and the beef rendang. All could have been a bit spicier (but the waiter did offer to make it spicier so next time I'll take him up on the offer!), but it was so tasty! Loved it all. And so reasonably priced. Super friendly service too. Great place.

Tasty and well cooked dishes. Lots of choices. Reasonably priced and great choice for a quick bite or simple dinner. The Flower Teas are also excellent.

very nice food good quantity and arrived hot. will order again

Food was very greasy and dumplings over cooked.

A very good Asian food cafe. Well worth a try.

Excellent Thai takeaway. Have ordered many times (weekly or fortnightly) and never been disappointed

loved it - very tasty. pls consider using eco packaging.

Ordered from Papayaya many times, food has always been good.

Really lovely place and great attentive staff. Would recommend. Food was really delicious.

Lovely food. Please investigate plastic alternatives for packaging.

Fried rice and gyoza was delicious. Didn't like the texture of the Thai corn fritters unfortunately. Lovely fresh juice.

We went for a group lunch. The choice from the menu was good and it didn't disappoint when it arrived 😋! The staff were friendly and helpful and the price wasn't too bad either

Ordered before opening and was given a 5.20 delivery time However, ETA kept getting later with food, eventually arriving around 6pm. I called the restaurant. They said the problem was a new driver arrangement with JE. Food was great but I didn't like the delay.

We ordered a takeaway, all of the food was excellent. Beef Rendang, chicken curry & soft shell crab were all so flavourful and delicious. Highly recommend this place.

That delivery driver is the best one Ive ever had. Hes so smart and intelligent 🙏🙏

The food itself is really nice but the place needs a lot of TLC and a deep cleaning. The tables were sticky and the floor looked as if it had never been cleaned. The entrance doesn't look very welcoming either.

Lovely spot....clean... functional and terrific food

Food was below average Starters (Chicken Satay, Chicken Gyoza) were not fresh as they were frozen items which were flash fried to order and tasted poor. Gyoza tasted a bit stale… Mains (Singapore noodles , Tom Yum Soupy noodles) were average .. service was okish.. Not a great feeling , will surely not be going again . Need to rethink if you are going with kids , because they are just serving frozen food .. at least for starters

Amazing food! Must try the green curry!

Used to be my favourite takeaway in bromley but I’ve noticed in recent months, the quality and portions have gone down whilst the prices have gone up. Especially on the delivery apps. Miso noodle bar is now the same price but better Sad because they are generally really friendly! Hope they can get back to how they used to be.

Excellent food and service and atmosphere

Exceptional food. I had the beef Rendang and it was amazing. The food came very promptly and the portion size was also excellent. I will be revisiting soon!

Love it love it love it. My favourite Asian restaurant in Bromley. I tried few dishes and love them all.

I went with a friend 3 days back, I had papaya fried rice and she had beef rendang. We both tasted a bit of each others food as well and we loved it! So today I went back with another friend and she was full of praise about the food as well. She lives in Dartford but she said she's coming back for more!!! The service by very polite and friendly men was superb as well!!! We're really lucky to have this place in Bromley!

The food was fresh and super tasty. For starters, we shared a platter for two which had spring rolls, chicken wings, butterfly prawns, satay and spare ribs. Every thing on the platter was nice, I particularly liked the satay sauce, it was perfect. We had sweet and sour chicken and the spicy beef stir fry for our mains along with their special fried rice which had delicious and juicy prawns in it. The waiter was very helpful with ordering around allergies. We will visit again!

Located just up from Bromley South station we came for an meal on a Saturday evening, first ever visit, and found a table surprisingly easy.I say surprisingly because I'm not sure why this restaurant isn't more busy. The service was spot on, friendly, efficient and fast. The menu choice was very good but obviously the pan Asian theme runs throughout, quite alot of dishes use some form of chilli ingredients. The food itself was very nice, absolutely loved the sesame prawn rolls and soft shell crab though. Prices were very reasonable. Definitely worth a visit. *Second visit* Still great, still had the same starters, but for main I had Thai green prawn curry this time, absolutely gorgeous. STILL worth checking out.

I ordered CKT (which isn’t authentic IMO) and durian ice cream and let me just say I was very disappointed. I see a lot of good reviews but the taste was horrible. Had a bite and couldn’t even finish it.

This is a hidden gem in Bromley. Ive often passed by but wasnt really aware that it was a Thai restaurant. I went with my family and we had a mixture of starters and mains all which tasted great. The service was excellent and the cost provided great value for money. Highly recommended.

Had a lovely lunch with a friend yesterday...service was so good, polite, patient and efficient; food was delicious and atmosphere was quietly busy, yet calm. We also had Flora tea to end our meal...if you've never tried this, it's worth a try, it's not green tea, or herbal....fragrant and satisfying and beautiful...thank you to all - chef, excellent food! Our waiter - very polite and lovely young man; the Manager - kind, you pulled this almost together, and thank you for your patience Allow us time time complete our meal!!

Exceptional! Delicious wings and prawn rolls. Thai red curry was lovely and spicy. Chicken could’ve been a little more tender but overall delicious. Gained a new customer

Would give it a 10 if I could. 👌🏽

Excellent place, consistently good and fair prices. Only one recommendation to their chef is that the sauce for the roti canai is a bit watery, needs to be a little thicker. Still delicious though and I eat here or get delivery usually twice per week

Great every time. I just wish they'd use environmentally friendly packaging.

The food and service here is always amazing. The staff are very attentive and the prices are reasonable. I would definitely recommend the roti canai and prawn kankung with sambal sauce and rice dish

Definitely worth travelling to. Do not miss the exotic Durian Ice Cream! I keep coming back for it. Dennis is fantastic as well. He is very attentive and granted our special request to replace Prawn with Beef in the Sambal Kangkung dish. The servings are also generous. It made our experience even better. Definitely a good value for money.

Hunt for the duck rolls, veg rolls terrible and the rest was simply okay. Thanks for the quick delivery / shame it was for such average food

Great food...great prices..great staff...😁

Great food experience! Very friendly staff that let us dine in 30min before closing. Very delicious Vietnamese 🇻🇳 and Thai 🇹🇭 cuisine with very affordable price. Me and my son loved the food, service and atmosphere in this lovely restaurant on the high street. THAI SUKIYAKI (can be prawn only ) recommended! Vietnamese prawn pho recommended!

Really great delicious food, we order takeout from here often, has become a firm favourite of ours! always arrives hot, freshly made and good quality, generous portion sizes, and the manager and staff are always so helpful and friendly.

service was great but I found plastic + hair in my pho and wasn’t offered a discount or refund of any sorts

Hot tasty food. Plenty of choice and good portions. Staff very friendly. Even pointed out that I had overpaid the bill and returned some money.

I love their Thai green curry and their Malaysaian chicken satay on skewers with peanut sauce, very delicious! The staff is very welcoming and friendly. Would always go back.

Loved the food, just like when we ate in.

Amazing Food, huge portions. Friendly, attentive staff. The Spare ribs with Korean BBQ were a highlight.

I ordered from Papayaya for the first time last week and was impressed with the very high quality of the fool and prompt delivery. I can't comment on the atmosphere as the order was for takeway.

Poor value, unsophisticated food. Dried out pork, unrecognisable Malaysian curry sauce etc… Had expected way better based on review score.

Everything we tried was very tasty. We had the sesame prawn rolls, Thai beef with oyster sauce and mixed seasonal vegetables. I would order it all again. Also, the service is so friendly and welcoming. We will return!!

In my partners opinion the soup was watery and too sweet. But not bad.

I got the miso ramen and it was tasty but not super authentic, only a few bits of tofu and too salty to finish the whole thing. The special flower teas are cool but annoying that it's served in a glass and it was so scalding hot I couldn't drink it until after I'd finished my meal! That said if you're eating alone there's lots of quiet places to sit which I appreciated, and the service was very quick and friendly. I do think the decor needs a revamp as it feels a bit like a school canteen. Very affordable too!

Saw the indication on Google Maps that this is an excellent restaurant, and we were absolutely delighted to discover that it is true, the staff are wonderful and the food that we had was absolutely delicious! Prices are good, we paid £7.70 for a tasty dish as an example. If you want authentic Asian food - here’s where to be. Magnificent!

Amazing authentic food. Highly recommend.

Have been coming here regularly for the past two years and it is always a pleasure

Not all of the order was delivered (missing Spring Rolls). Most of the order was great (Katsu Curry and Ribs). The Malaysian Curry was not good - with the chicken being very poor.

Excellent food but slow preparation (I’m guessing it was a busy Friday night). Driver was polite and quick!

Very tasty and affordable malaysian food. Plus they don't automatically add a service charge to your bill. To management, please keep it this way!

Yummy food, decent price, decent portions.

This was one restaurant that always kept it's standards over the past few years and their dishes were truly authentic. After a long time I ordered three of my favourite dishes - chili Thai chicken 209, prawns with kankung 507 and sambal prawns 501. All three were barely edible with little or taste and almost nothing to differentiate the flavours. On top of this each dish had large amounts of white onions which increased the volumes of the dish but added absolutely nothing to enhance the taste.

I’ve been dying to find some good Pho Bo since moving to the UK 6 years ago and I’m happy to say I’ve finally found my new favourite spot. It’s the only place where I finish my bowl every time, even if I’m already completely full. The broth is skimmed perfectly, it’s full of flavour, and they give you generous portions of meat. Prices are great too

The beef malang was swimming in oil. The vegetable dumplings swimming in oil and the spring rolls the same. Really disappointing.

I completely haven’t got my food

Best Thai takeaway in south london! Always tasty, hot and quick. Tom Yum soup is the best I’ve tasted anywhere ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great food, really enjoy papaya every time I am back in Bromley

restaurant was very caring and food very tasty. Fast delivery.

My meal tasted terrible and the customer service was really bad. I had a few spoonfuls and asked if I could possibly swap for something else as it tasted really unpleasant , first I was told the kitchen was now closed (but yet other customers around me still able go out in their order ) and then I was told if I do I will still be charged for another meal I paid and left without eating. Will never go to this place again.

Simple, fast tasty food with friendly staff.

Incorrectly labelled foods, i Have Coeliacs disease, things are labelled as Gluten free that arent at all gluten free i wouldnt risk it for nut allergies either.

Their menu on deliveroo lists items as not containing Gluten and other allergens when they do infact contain them, Caused a reaction in our household had to call up multiple times just to find out the truth. Not impressed.

Food was amazing. Busy restaurant and really good service for a large group that we had...

Brilliant food, service and atmosphere. Papayaya's Nasi Goreng is delicious!

Genuinely one of the worst restaurant experiences I have had for a very long time. The customer service was truly shocking. The waitress was trying her best. But the male waiter/manager was honestly dreadful. Customer service and a general level of respect is just not there. It was not busy but we waited 40 minutes for starters, but only got one starter and we had asked them to bring the food together. I approached the bar as my friend’s starter was received but we didn’t have cutlery. The male member of staff, told me I need to wait before I had even asked him a question. After around 1 hour we decided to leave. I informed the male member of staff we were leaving…this was met with ‘ok, bye’. Just rude. No explanation, no food and no apology for the wasted time.

Best southeast Asian restaurant in the area by far. Friendly team and great value for money

This place is quite near to my home so was always on the list. We went for Dinner and ordered their vegetarian snacks platter, chilli Singapore Noodles and Thai Green curry. Everything was perfect to the taste and was also presented properly and served timely. The staff was polite and responsive. The place can be more cosy, but the food was just so perfect. We would surely go back again

Little restaurant not a chain. Basic decor but comfortable. Food is varied and delicious. Also really reasonable prices.

I’m living in different parts of London for 10 years and this is the best Thai restaurant I found so far. And the price is surprisingly cheap in the center location.

Amazing food and amazing service. Pad Kee Mao here is amazing and authentic

The Laksa is excellent. The quality can match up m with the one in Malaysia. Portion is enough for an adult. The staff are warm and sweet. Will surely come back!

I love this place and have been going since it opened some years ago. The food is excellent and the staff so friendly and assertive. Prices very completive too:) Always a joy.

Amazing food and ambience. A great stop when you are craving for Asian cuisine. Their servings are huge, totally worth it. Give them a visit.

Very tasty food, with good portions sizes..always have an enjoyable meal.

Never a problem with this place. Reliable delivery and delicious food too.

Don't be put off by the decor this place is incredible. Basic setting but the food is excellent and very reasonably priced. Ribs fell off the bone, gyoza were crispy and delicious, pad Thai is very authentic and the Currys were delicious (if it says it has chilli it means it though!!) Very generous portions, great service. I only wish I lived closer so I could come back more frequently.

Quick delivery! Excellent food as always. Try the sesame prawns ...yum!

Amazing food reasonable price Amazing service

Nice noodle. Visited twice and will come back when I want to try Asian food.

We ordered the pad Thai with tofu and spring rolls. 2 tiny bits of tofu for a whole box of pad Thai; hardly worth it.

Can’t fault this place. Reasonably priced, lots of choice and friendly service. Food super tasty and well sized.Never been disappointed. Go check it out.
