Timur in Croydon

We had a fantastic meal here. Highly recommend the Sag Aloo - it was absolutely delicious! Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. The food is very inexpensive but excellent quality and very flavourful. Fantastic food!!

Good service and menu choices. I expected the chicken tikka to arrive on a sizzling hot plate but it was just on a plate. Peshwari nan didn’t have much flavour and a mint or sweet with the bill would have been nice. Just needs a bit of fine tuning I feel

Delicious food, friendly staff and value for money. Only minor criticism is the toilets smell a bit damp but it has rained a lot recently!

Superb Food The onion bhajis are outstanding. We had to order 2 sets of these starters. Even the poppodoms and breads taste better than other places The menu is excellent and the food is at a very high level… And good value also Top notch 5/5

Wonderful place and people. Friendly service, very tasty Indian and Nepalese food, small plates and large. Good value. On the Triangle, heart of Crystal Palace, friendliest area in London, because of places like Timur.

By far the finest of its kind in the area. The food is head and shoulders above its nearby competitors. From the beautiful poppadoms and accompanying relishes to its immaculately flavoured curries, flavoursome rices and hearty breads, the restaurant is exceptional.

Visited this evening as a three, one friend running late. Our server (Bishwas according to our receipt, but the only server that night 21/02) was extremely attentive, able to anticipate our needs. Everything arrived promptly and it was friendly with good ambience. Most importantly, everything was delicious! And a huge amount of food for the price. We had a really lovely evening and weren't rushed at all, will definitely be back!

Amazing starters (quite different to other similar restaurants), great service, and I would highly recommend a visit.

Have walked by here lots of time and never realised how good it is! The whole meal was excellent and quite different from other curry houses we have visited. It seems more contemporary (lots of vegan dishes and 'street food' for example). Everything we had was delicious and beautifully presented - we loved the Hariyali tikka chicken in particular.

This is one of my favourite places to eat in London. It’s run by a wonderful family and the Indian and Nepalese food is fabulous. We’ve just had dinner there (again ☺️) and it was as wonderful as always. The food is very reasonably priced for the quality, the flavour and the ambience of the experience, great for veggies and meat eaters - it’s a joy and I can’t recommend it highly enough.

What a wonderful local restaurant. I love the fact that there are so many delicious veggie and vegan options. The staff are all very polite and helpful. We visit regularly and love Timur.

The food at Timur is out of this world. I came here with my girlfriend 2 weeks ago, she brought her mum this time… and we’ll be back again soon! Incredible experience both times! The vegan options are delicious and my non-vegan girlfriend also can’t stop raving about how good the food is here. Honestly you HAVE to try this place. Extra points for the staff being so polite at all times.

I’d give this place a 6 if I could. 1. Best popadoms in London, probably UK, maybe anywhere 2. Food amazing, had the king prawns curry, 10/10 3. Team are great, very friendly, very fast service If you’re in Crystal Palace go here, if you’re nearby highly recommend the trip

I had travelled down with a friend to Crystal Palace and had booked a table at another Indian restaurant nearby. Due to a kitchen fire our plans changed and we ended up at Timur. We arrived around 6pm and the staff were very friendly managing to find us a table. Although not an over extensive choice of dishes the quality, quantity and flavours were excellent. We had two mains, two rice, one side and one bread together with one beer which came to £45 for two people. I would happily recommend a visit if you are in the area.

We came here yesterday for Father’s Day. My husband has been before with his tai chi students and recommended it. The food was delicious. The staff were very knowledgeable and helpful and all at a reasonable price. We would definitely return.

Amazing meal here, everything was so delicious, nice surroundings and lovely staff. Particularly enjoyed the popadoms, momos and onion bhajis. Wish we lived closer.

Fabulous food served by friendly staff…Do yourself a favour and get yourself down to Timur…we ordered the Chicken Makhani and Timur Piro Lamb…both were delicious. We also had the yellow dhal, wonderful flavour. The 3 dips that come with the naan are so nice too…will definitely be back 👍

This place is well informed about coeliac/gluten free diet. Staff are really helpful and the food is delicious.

This was such amazing food, I can’t believe it’s been in my backyard this whole time! My family and I visited for Mother’s Day; so we had a spread of food and everyone loved what they had. I personally had the chicken biryani trio of chicken + peshwari (sweet) naan…absolutely sensational and i’m eating my leftovers now, which reminded me to do this review! Our server and the manager were so helpful and the most attentive. The only thing about sitting in the restaurant is that the background music was off/very low, but we were eating so much it barely mattered 🤣

Such an amazing find in Crystal Palace. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. Much better than most Indian / Nepalese restaurants in London.

Omg very nice I don't do spicy but very lovely just to say omd nice nice.great enjoy I'm coming here again friendly oyeah X

Really lovely food. Lovely service, really welcoming and friendly. The Momos were amazing. Thanks very much 😍

Visited last night hadnt booked but not a problem was shown to a seat. Decor of place is very nice, staff attentive and provide a good service. Food was excellent not an extensive menu but a good choice will deffo be going back.

Service and food quality is a step above a normal curry house, there is less focus on the standard curries and it shows

Food is absolutely delicious and fantastic value for money given the highly affordable price. I had the lamb chops & naan which were packed with flavour. Customer service was very polite and attentive from the main waiter leading to a highly enjoyable experience. My family...

I took my girlfriend here the day after valentines and WOW we were blown away. Amazing food, incredibly attentive service. Everything came quickly and was delicious. We’ll be back very soon.

Midweek family gathering. Really excellent food, tasty dishes served hot and well presented. Varied menu and excellent and attentive service. Choice of both Cobra and Kingfisher beer which is very rare these days.

I’ve lived in Crystal Palace for 6 years and this is my first meal at Timur, and what a treat! All of our dishes were delicious and the service was excellent - very warm and attentive. Thoroughly recommend this local restaurant, I’ll be back for...

Amazing food amazing staff can’t recommend more. Came in on a Tuesday as was welcomed into a walm and friendly restaurant I ordered the momos and kathi rolls and they were amazing.

We were recommended Timur by friends, and all the reviews looked good. I went with my partner on Bank Holiday Monday, just after new year. We were shown to a crappy table near the back, and then completely ignored. It wasn’t especially busy in the...

I had a takeaway from Timur tonight. I thought there was too many; what I thought I could taste was cloves in the Tara Dall however the chicken tikka was just amazing, my son said it was ‘unbelievable’. I will never buy from anywhere else...

Another world class meal from a world class restaurant; the phrase 'hidden gem' was invented for this place. Our annual Christmas curry has been looking for a home for years and I think we've finally found it at Timur. Great curry, great staff and banging...

The staff were pleasant and attentive but let down by the quality of the food . Starters good but can’t go wrong with Poppadoms. The mains left a lot to be desired. The Chicken Malia was dry and tasteless. The Nihari lamb was tough. Tasted...

Highly recommend the Nihari shank - one of the best curries I've had in a long time. Also recommend trying the Kuwa craft beer. Staff are friendly and make you feel very welcome. Can't wait to return!

I came here by fluke a couple of years ago when visiting family down here, I live 300 miles away, but anytime I’m down in this area I always make sure I come as the food is very different to most Indian restaurants and absolutely...

Friendly helpful staff. Great food and not over priced. Some interesting items on the menu and south Asian food that we felt was made with a bit more care and attention rather than the average Indian restaurant. Thank you we had a very enjoyable meal

An experience unlike any other. I came here with my Fambily for an end of season curry and left fuller, wiser, and happier. Everything was 5*, I'd give it 6 if I could. The waiters are friendly and knowledgeable, the beer cold and infused with...

One of the best indian restaurants I have been too, and the price was excellent. Especially as itd in Crystal Palace. Lovely layout and friendly service too

Fabulous new Nepalese/Indian restaurant in Crystal Palace. Food and service was exemplary. Ingredients vibrant, spicy, original. Definitely visiting again. And again.

Excellent Indian and Nepalese food with friendly and efficient service. What's not to like! I particularly recommend the momo, chicken tikka masala and rack of lamb.

This restaurant went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. The food proportions are plentiful and the varieties of food are great. It was our first meal out since restaurants opened and they did not disappoint in the slightest. I recommend this place...

Came across this Indian take-away on Uber-eats. It’s not often you find anything nice but Wow...... Just ordering for the second time in two weeks.

I have been to India, i have had many takeaways over the years including Eastern Quisine on Gypsy hill who were the best until now. I also cook a lot of indian food and enjoy unusual regional tates. Timur are a new outfit of young...

I can't comment on the restaurant or staff as I have only had takeaway food from Timur, but the food was delicious. Not too greasy or salty and the meat was beautifully tender. The menu really stands out - it has plenty of familiar favourite...

Stumbled upon this delightful place while searching for somewhere to have a nice meal before second lockdown. Food was excellent with a very good range. Service was great even though they were busy.

Passed at random and it was open at 3pm. What a find! Delicious fresh Indian food - tender lamb, interesting street food starters, traditional birianis - cant recommend highly enough these boys deserve your support too - starting a restaurant in these difficult days. Make...

Visited timur on a busy Saturday night, the food was amazing and the service is very attentive this is a must try restaurant, highly recommended.
