Sir Julian Huxley in Croydon

Good spoons. Normal in terms of interior. Smoking in the back is a bit odd as some tables are no smoking. The food is normal spoons food but it was cooked hot and tasted nice. Desserts were good too.

Cheap and cheerful, food is nice. Always top service from the team there.

A nice little local Wetherspoons, which is perfect for breakfast. Staff are always friendly, welcoming and helpful. And the food menu offers good value for money. The pub can get busy in the evenings and weekends, however is normally peaceful early on during the day.

Ham, egg and chips plus unlimited tea for £4.91. What a bargain. Proper off the bone ham. Cafe across the road charges double the price and it’s packet ham, definitely coming back.

Went in here before going out to eat very busy typical Friday evening. Got a table easy enough table service was good.

Great spoons. Great staff. Well done.

Been here a few times and the service is fantastic and the food delicious. I would definitely recommend.

Have lived in the area for 3 years but only visited recently.Can highly recommend.Staff are excellent.Very friendly and welcoming.Enjoyed a meal and couple of drinks.

Light and spacious pub with friendly staff. Small but well kept walled garden for the summer. Usual quantity beer you expect in a Wetherspoons pub at affordable prices.

Quirky layout, good selection of ales. Largish beer garden to rear.

Great value food, good service and great atmosphere!! I love it!!

Went for breakfast, staff were quick and friendly, I was given a mug when I explained I was going to order a coffee with my order but haven't yet decided. This allowed me to make my mind up while drinking said coffee. Sat downstairs outside in the sun. Great Spoons. Thank you.

Lovely garden area, very spacious. Food and drink arrived fast

Tom was wonderful with r grandchildren so understanding as to what they want. He is the best staff they have.

I guess it's a fairly typical Wetherspoons. You always know what to expect. Really good place for breakfast, food is always piping hot. Offers very good value for money. Since it's a Wetherspoons you don't have super loud music to deal with.

My dad and I go in there on a Friday evening regularly and sometimes during the week after a hard day at work. We order the same thing every time - 2 Pints of Black Dragon, a double Strika and a double Glenmorangie. It always costs us £17.86 (£3.88 x2 + £4.21 + £5.89) which we think is reasonable compared to other people in the area. Today we got served by a new member of staff and she charged us £19.19 (because she charged us the price of 2 single Strika's when they clearly sell it as a double) I went to speak to the manager as there was a discrepancy of £1.33 and he said "dont worry about being overcharged" and I was like "yeah I kinda of do" (because in my mind you should charge customers right. He did a re-print of the bill and to try and make himself look goof, he said that "Oh you must have been served by a nice person as the price that you got charged is correct and you probably owe me £500 for the short charges that you paid" and a female member of his team was there defending me and saying that I was right because she is one of the few that serve me all the time and she always charges me £17.86 and he dismissed her. Basically I know that its £1.33 but its the principle that he tried to be coy about it and cover up the fact that (in his heart of hearts) he knew we'd been overcharged instead of apologising which was a surprise for me because it was as clear as day. My dad has already stated since we came home that we wont be returning to the Huxley as he is offended about what happened and the fact that the manager never owned up to the mistake but me personally I hope thats not the case as I like the place, the staff and the fact that they serve Black Dragon..

This is a typical no nonsense Wetherspoons pub! Inexpensive beers, wine & food, a trek to the toilets and a very lively atmosphere. A visit to the bar which nearly always has a queue, although staff are jovial and pleasant when serving. Have started using the Wetherspoons app now, which speeds up the service, but app is slow to order and you cannot order the quest beers on it. App needs a bit of improvement.

Recently witnessed a young lady and her dog being refused a bowl of water in the heat. All for having principles and policy, but be a human. This is just appalling from what appeared to be the manager and staff. Will be taking this up to the complaints team. Can't imagine any other service at this pub is done with much competence.

Haven't been in for a long time. Used to be semi regular when meeting friends. All the staff have changed and so has the atmosphere. Went for a family meal after shopping at Sainsbury's and saw staff refusing a lady a glass of tap water. They were blunt and rude and I wash shocked!

We have just been to the pub for the first time, myself my partner and his 14 year old twin boys. It was heaving busy, but the atmosphere was friendly, and the staff were welcoming. We found an empty table in the garden which, although rammed, was well presented with some beautiful plants and flowers. We did a table order using the app and was a bit dubious due to how busy it was how good the food or service would be, but were more than pleasantly surprised that the food came out within 15 minutes, was absolutely delicious, the staff were accommodating despite being rushed off their feet and the atmosphere, far from the expected ‘boozer on a Friday night’ was friendly and welcoming. My favourite Wetherspoons yet. Well done guys 5 stars well deserved

the gas on the guest cask ales constantly gives trouble,five times it has become the pub with no beer, the only local pub to not be in the good beer guide, no wonder, very badly run.

Great place for a meal and a pint. 🍺

Nice pub and food and some friendly staff

FUMING!!! I ordered 4 drinks to my table at 20:17 and NEVER RECEIVED THEM. I am fuming, the incompetent barman said he can do nothing about it. DO NOT COME HERE! Disappointed and disgusted.

Good pub with unbeatable prices.

It seems to me that building is rather old fashioned and plain. I wouldn't come back again. The service was good.

Ellana is such a lovely member of staff met her today and she’s made me feel soo welcome

Perfect breakfast all of the time

Great value for money, table service is great. I recommend curry club.

Never had a bad meal here! The food is always 10/10! Great pub!

Great pub fantastic ambience quality fresh and hot delicious food and welcoming friendly staff, can’t recommend more highly for anyone passing through Selsdon area. This pub is a credit to Wetherspoons 10/10

Lovely Weatherspoons by yourself or with family and friends ❤️ eat drink and be merry..

Nice little spoons, friendly staff and nice food and drinks. Would return for sure

Friendly staff and very good selection of beers ...Good pizza's.. Burgers were horrible.....I just are the 2 pieces of chicken within

Sadly this place is as grubby as it gets

Excellent venue - has an Art Deco vibe & a garden -Service could be better when busy -but comfortable without being cosy

excellent pub but shuts too early 😭

Just enjoyed Fish & Chips at the Spoons in Sanderstead all for a crazy price of £7.28 with a soft drink after 2pm. Lovely piece of fish washed down with a coffee which is free to refill. Amazing value much cheaper than going to a fish & chip shop. This place is a no brainer.

Excellent pub, it’s like a second home

A good weathspoons and good atmosphere

From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The rustic decor, with its dark wood furnishings and soft lighting, sets the perfect backdrop for a cozy evening out. Also the beer garden ist fantastic for having a cold one in a quiet place

The blonde Irish woman behind the bar is an absolute joke. Really lets the place down, she has a terrible attitude and rude. Apparently wetherspoon policy is that staff can choose who they serve and when. Not sure why a business likes wetherspoon allows staff members like this to bring down their reputation in which is otherwise a well managed pub with professional staff

Good food quick service and lovely staff

We've just popped in for a drink, and it was lovely.

Packed on Thursday curry night.

The days of getting a large meaty portion of cod is dead at Wetherspoons is dead, actually most of the portions are now considerably smaller than a couple of years ago. But that is not unusual, the reason for the sole star is because although the service was quick the food was tepid and my fish was severely overcooked but it was also quite thin so really was poor. My friend wanted to send it back but I knew she was pressed for time so didn't want to delay our departure. The actual pub itself is standard for a London Wetherspoon, nothing outstanding but at 6:30pm had quite a family feel and child friendly.

Lets hear it for the 'Sir J' or 'The Hux' in Selsdon, my local 'Spoons'. Green King IPA at about £1.79 a pint, all other real ales between £2 and £2.50 and a plate of food including a drink for less than a tenner makes for a very economical evening out. Not a posh dinning experience I suppose, but always a good plate of food and at those prices you can afford a lot more evenings out with friends. I'm very happy with it and judging by how busy it was on Friday night, I guess everyone else is too. Perhaps other less busy pub chains should take note.....

The Huxley is wetherspoons chain pub, perfectly situated in Selsdon. It is one of the best of the chain that I've encountered. The veggie and veggie and vegan options are getting broader. I do love a veggie breakfast from there. The coffee is decent. It really does make a morning. The staff have always been superb!

Good to see friendly bar staff from the Foxley hatch (purley)

Very delicious breakfasts, which I love to eat every day, I recommend delicious coffee, all drinks are the bomb for me 😍

Lovely lunch Good outside area for smoking

Very nice Wetherspoon in South-London.

A good honest value for money place, used it many times

Really enjoyed ourselves visiting this time, it's not always been the best in the past

friendly and caring staff. Really great value for food and drink.

Service was good, however I am never sure about the atmosphere

Very busy , not many disabled tables available

Very nice local place, with good prices fast and nice team

Fast service and very reasonable prices.

Only had coffee. Busy. Good pub.

Great service from all the staff, especially Scott

The tables are really packed closely together

Nice little pub. Cheap and cheerful wetherspoons. All food was nice except we don't recommend the apple crumble and custard. That's definitely the worst one I've ever had. Hot food made up for it 😂

From the moment I entered, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism by your staff. They were attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was nothing short of perfect. The food itself was nothing short of exceptional. Each dish was executed with precision and care, and the flavors were simply sensational. It was evident that the ingredients were of the highest quality, and the culinary expertise of your chefs truly shone through in every bite.

Really good breakfast options at a very good price. Refillable coffee/hot drinks for just over £1. The quality of the food surprisingly was also good especially for the price paid.

Beautiful pub very friendly staff , good food , and very cheap 😄

One of the best wetherspoons I've been too, and what a lovely area, I will be back and next time I'll bring my daughter as this placd has a lovely atmosphere

Atmosphere was flat, maybe because it was early ish..didn't have food so can't comment , and not a lot of variety on the cask ales compared to the George in croydon..

Food is great...would be hot if staff would get off their phones long enough to serve it. Maybe the cooks wouldn't get blamed!

The food is good as it usually is when I visit

Lovely Sunday breakfast 🍳 thank you for great service ☺️

Great place to stop for lunch. They even lit the fire, which made it so cosy in there

Lovely place and not too crowded. Prices were comparable and food quality was great!

Curry night hot food great beer back again first class yet another great curry night the best the best.

It's the only pub that is colder inside than outside in the winter. Most people wear hats and winter coats and clothes inside as the aircon seems to be stuck permanently on and blows icy cold air across the pub. You can see the baubles and tinsel and hanging signage blowing around in the artic breeze. It's ridiculous. There is a fire, but it is rarely if ever lit. It would probably be blown out by the wind anyway 🙂

nice busy community pub for a relaxing weekday lunch.

Great food child friendly and quick service

Usual spoons, kids running around like idiots, reasonable food but the saving grace of very cheap drinks. Good service from the staff who work very hard. Very loud, would be much quieter with music on.

You can't argue with a Spoons pricing even if the quality isn't exceptional. For 4 breakfasts, a coffee, a juice and a brunch time pint with change from £20 - who cares what it's like! With activities for kids and crayons available, it's a cheap alternative to other places when the need arises (and perfect before heading to the football)!

Great local pub with halfway decent prices. Good sized Beer garden and the front windows of the pub can be opened when necessary ( nice weather permitted 😊) the only downside is the parking.....

As good as it gets when it comes to breakfast, polite and friendly service.

The Huxley is a great pub. Like most Wetherspoons, the food and drink are priced to be affordable and offer great value. The staff are a great bunch and it is a well-run and welcoming venue for all ages and demographics. My only gripe is that the aircon blows icy cold, seemingly even on cold days, and there doesn't seem to be a way to turn it off. Make sure you bring a jumper 😃

Nice food,good garden for our dog

Leckeres Frühstück, nette Bedienung. Kaffee kann man sich selber immer wieder nachfüllen.

A very clean and well organised spoons…stopped in for a breakfast …was hot and very quickly served …staff were very efficient …tables and area really clean and the bar was well presented …even got a proper pint glass with my beer ..

Me and my sister came with our parents and some of our family last night. We were in a big group so we were all sat around multiple tables. The waiter came over and told us at 8.30 as we had just got our food that they were unable to serve us until me and my sister left due to us having no physical id, even though we are both 19 and everyone was telling them this. We were only drinking cokes and eating food. They refused to serve the whole table and more of the people who had just come in because they knew we were with them. As we were told to leave, we requested a refund but they told us that we were not allowed a refund due to us signing up to their ‘new policy’. We are all very regular customers so its a shame we were treated so unfairly.

Another place from the same chain. Good ambience, quiet. Service is cold but correct. It is a place to grab a quick bite and a beer.

Great drinking hole with excellent service and good atmosphere

My first visit. A busy place The scan and order works well. JD prices 😃

The usual Wetherspoon fare in a rather unusual setting. There is a main bar and big side room and a small conservatory. There is also a very nice sheltered garden area

Pub needs total refurb Lot of the food items were not available, and only two real ales out of five on,, coffee machine was turned off at ten , so work mates could not get a drink

Good friendly pub with good service. Get there for bingo night too. Kind and welcoming.

Top spoons always clean good service tables wiped wcs spotless good food and sizes

fabulous service , clean . Nothing to much trouble . Great for disability and as a disabled person this was really refreshing. Would recommend to everyone. Even has a garden room and garden. Staff are brilliant and so kind and helpful

Big enough to have decent space from other customers, Friendly staff, Not as noisy as some other Weatherspoons, Food is very decent Prices are good. We come here almost every weekend for breakfast or lunch as a family of 3 and we love it.

Been using the Huxley fir years and always rated the food .. But curry night this Thursday was awful... Pommpadoms where not cooked properly and covered in fat ... Nan bread wasn't cooked properly and neither were the samosa or onion baji All in all worst meal I have had In a long time ... Extreamly poof food .. Won't be eating there again in a hurry

Classic good wetherspoon pub. Price to quality ratio the best in area. Highly recommended

Lovely little pub tucked away Surrey south of Croydon. Only accessible by train/tram and bus, it's not the easiest spoons to get to but I would say it was worth the effort. Curious place with an art deco bar and plenty of seating available. A large skylight helps keep that part of the pub nice and bright. Interestingly, you go downstairs to the spacious beer garden with plenty of shrubbery. The staff were lovely and cheerful. The Guinness was excellent as was the Doom Bar.

Only stopped for morning coffee
