The best restaurants serving African food in Croydon London

The food and service here are absolutely amazing. Would recommend this place to anyone, confidant they would be as thrilled as I was

A friend and I went in @ 5.30 on a Saturday. We weren't shown a menu or prices. We considered the waiter helpful and friendly as he talked us through our options. We ordered 2 medium size meals, 1 bottle of beer & 1 bottle of water. It is more a cafe than a restaurant. The food was cheap cafe standard. We were charged £50 & the waiter refused to let us see a menu or drinks prices. £20 would have been a fair price. .

This use to be my go to restaurant on a Friday. I was here last Friday, I ordered fried yam, the sauce was excessively spicy, I have ordered this multiple times before with no issues. The food was ok, large portions, I asked for a container for my left overs and was charged £1.50 for 1 container. This has never been the case in the past. The manager seem to be in a bad mood, there was no sign to say we will charge you for container. I will not be returning here, I will be exploring other African restaurants for my Friday outings.

Visité Gold Coat ayer con un amigo que visitó por primera vez. Tuvimos el placer de conocer a una señora maravillosa que creo que es la nueva gerente. Recomendó el Waakye servido en una hoja y compartió la fascinante historia y los aspectos de sostenibilidad detrás de este plato tradicional de Ghana. Realmente aprecio la frecuencia con la que ella se fijó en nosotros y todos allí. Mi amigo, impresionado por la cálida hospitalidad, ya está planeando su visita de regreso. Está claro que Gold Coat no solo ha renovado el espacio, sino que también ha elevado sus alimentos y servicios.
