Great place. Try the special items like the earl grey rose latte or the banana bread with marscapone and honey. Friendly and very helpful owner and staff. Definitely will pop in whenever I'm in Croydon.
Love this coffee shop, it has the best coffee here in Croydon <3
Delicious coffee and absolutely smashing homemade cakes baked by the owner's girlfriend. I had one with plums and I really regret I forgot to ask for the recipe - it was so yummy! You can tell it's all fresh and it's such a great change from the processed products in chain cafés.
They also have a decent selection of loose teas served in lovely transparent teapots which is also quite a rare thing in Croydon.
Wifi works really well and although it's a really tiny place, you will always find a place to sit. The big window lets you bask in the sunshine (if you're lucky) or staring at the passers-by. It's true that this cafe could do with some more decorations as it feels a bit empty, but if you are after a good quality coffee and tea, this in one of the best places in Croydon.
Come rain or snow, high inflation or low, no matter what, the team here never forgot the well being of their customers and fans.
Myself and my colleagues have been coming to the Crushed Bean almost since they started. Pam and her team always have a friendly smile for everyone.
The coffee, tea and snacks are all great. Thank you for making our days begin happy and your contribution to the Croydon community.
Top tier coffee, the best flat white you can find in Croydon. Amazing selection of pastries, the red velvet croissant and Japanese cheesecake are just too good! And they are a super friendly and amazing team, it's always a pleasure to go there!
A lovely small and independent shop with approx 6 chairs, I found it clean, friendly atmosphere very welcoming. Will be returning.
I love this place! It's cosy and the prices are very reasonable. The people are sooo friendly, I got asked if I wanted help because I didn't know what drink to get, I got the Earl Grey rose tea and is was AMAZING! I will definitely make this my new go-to spot.
Very important to support local independent businesses at this time Wide selection of teas and even had rooibos so I was happy. In addition had coconut 🥥 milk for a cappuccino. Excellent service from staff.
Great coffee and nice snack/pastry options, very friendly staff 😊
Great local cafe. Pam and her team are lovely and the atmosphere is always so pleasant when I go here.
Their coffee is great and they have a really tasty range of breakfast / lunch options.
I had an amazing experience at this coffee shop. Their cold coffee is simply fantastic, and the atmosphere is delightful. I'll definitely be returning for more!
My first visit yesterday and it was a lovely experience. The coffee is delicious and the staff very welcoming and friendly. A delight to see the Pride flag displayed so proudly in Croydon. There's also a very comfortable seating area downstairs.
One of the best independent coffee shops around!! I agree with the other reviewers that say it’s all about the staff. They were warm welcoming and again thats for everyone dine in or take out. A customer brought his dog and I think it was the owner who gave 🐶 some treats 💕 I had an open mozzarella, tomato and pesto salad on sourdough with a perfectly balanced flat white. Both were delicious. Excellence is the name of the game @CrushedBean
