The Whitgift Centre

There's a great choice of stores in The Whitgift Centre!

Khyber

Khyber

One of, if not the best Indian restaurant in Croydon. It has a wide variety of dishes on the menu, including game curries. The food is delicious and portions are perfectly sized to keep you full - but not to the point of bursting.

Surrey Street Market

Engrained in Croydon's history and open 6 days a week, you can pick up produce from pretty much any part of the world and it is also very cheap! My mum who still lives in Croydon is a fan of 3 bunches of bananas for only £1!

A sandwich deli right in the heart of Croydon. The menu is different every day and the prices are great for the amount you get.

No longer in use, Croydon Airport was once a major international airport that now houses a visitor centre.

Ashley Whitehouse

Mitcham Common is a beautiful area to explore and one that I love taking the dog to when the weather's nice.

Sometimes when I visit the waterfall in Grove Park, it's hard to believe that it is in London!
