We go to Ellie’s a few times a month, food is fantastic the place is spotlessly clean and the staff are the friendliest you would wish to meet

Been first time there, amazing customer service, nice portions and delicious food, had “big breakfast”, my recommendation in this area definitely worth it!

lovely place with really friendly staff. the food is well-priced and always top-notch. good stuff, wonderful breakfasts - I always get the Mediterranean which is a filling but light meal. lots of veggie and even vegan options.

This place is amazing, don’t find words to describe attention’s staff and food is delicious and good price. I love it. 😍

The better of Croydon, excellent attention, so good food, always I come back. Thank ELLY’S CAFE

Lovely place people are so nice

Amazing love this place top chef🤩

The breakfast was delicious and honestly surprised by how affordable tasty food could be. Staffs were friendly and I felt looked after. Will definitely visit them again.

The staff are always friendly and welcoming. They always remember what I want even though I do not visit very frequently.

Good, filling food, for a decent price, friendly staff, quick service, recommended.

I had yet another all round 5 star experience in Elly's cafe again today with a set 5 breakfast that was cooked fast and served with care and love. It seems that the staff know everyone who enter or at least make you feel special and an old friend. I'm astonished how hard they work as a team & gel well even when the cafe is busy & almost full. The presence of many regular bus drivers who have a long walk to the cafe from the depot confirms the quality of the food and the attraction of the 'Elly experience'. Most of the local traders on Brighton Rd choose to eat here too.

The most family friendly and warm welcomes at Elly's the staff are so delightful and attentive Food is always a photo finish and delicious (hot plates coming through) The magicians in the kitchen and my favs Tom x unice are wonderful Just a light breakfast today was too excited to take a pic ..had to eat up but I must say I'm so impressed With the frothest cappuccino ever with Oat Milk too.... yum!

Great food, service and very accommodating of my young son. Highly recommend.

Amazing atmosphere, great food, clean and great service! Highly recommend! 5*

The best cafes around this area! The customer service could not be any better. Staff are always so friendly, smiling and chatty. Food is always delicious. No complaints at all.

Lovely cafe with very welcoming staff. Food is always fabulous 🩵

Really friendly staff. Service is always quick and food good quality

Always always lovely service from these guys, plenty of food value for money Never fails to disappoint me here.

The food was nice but they waited for me to finish eating before telling me they can only take cash because the machine isn't working. With a baby certainly was an inconvenience having to go to the petrol station to get cash.

what a great place. good food and nice happy staff . not over priced. check it out. keep it up . will done

You can’t fault elly’s. First time I walked in, there was a warm welcome, and I was given an extra portion of chips with my sandwich Years down the line they are still the best cafe by far, foods always on point , service is phenomenal Feel like part of the family 🙏

Excellent customer service, great tasting food and a warm and friendly atmosphere. Good portion sizes and great value for money. Highly recommend the Spanish omelette. I'll definitely be back!

Best cafe in town I come here every morning to get breakfast and not once have I had anything had to say. The service is good and the food is even better!! THANK YOU FOR TREATING ME WITH SUCH KINDNESS EVERY TIME I COME IN IT GOES ALONG WAY 🤍

Been coming here for years and the food is always delicious, excellent service, lovely family run business - highly recommended !!!

Staff are super friendly, nothing is too much trouble for any of them. Always ask how we are. Food is great and served quickly. Would 1000% recommend 😀

Fresh cooked food. Prices very fair. Clean table etc. Friendly staff. Good service Just the right place for a full breakfast (vegetarian available) + a cuppa 👏

Love this cafe. Gets busy because the food is great (typical cafe fare cooked well) and the service is outstanding - very friendly and efficient.

Sitting here now - almost unable to move after such a huge and delicious breakfast!! Watching regulars come and go and receiving the same warmth and smiles. The owner just gave me a free coffee. What a lovely cafe.

The best cafe in South Croydon food amazing especially the bacos and the coffee is fantastic friendly service and cant wait to return to enjoy more of their breakfasts and lunches. If your visiting South Croydon do not miss this cafe for a delicious meal.

Always a friendly atmosphere whenever we go in for breakfast! Food comes out so quickly and is tasty and good value for money. My partner is obsessed with the pancake breakfast!

Excellent breakfast, freshly made and so tasty. Good size portions

Huge thank you to Elly's Cafe for making a suprise 80th bithday breakfast so special the other morning for my Paps , Ellys cafe such a lovely family run business I can not recommend it highly enough , food & atmosphere is just 5 star.

Been coming here before it was Ellys. Wonderful Turkish family and great honest food.

This cafe excels in all areas because the staff are very hard working, friendly, fast and the food menu is extensive. I cant fathom how they can maintain such delivery on a daily basis. The best endorsement is given by all the bus drivers who are prepared to walk 200yds to eat here. A discerning client base indeed!

Stopped with my partner for a breakfast the quality off food was terrible and very cheap everything on the plate had different temperatures worst breakfast I’ve ever had first and last time

Lovely staff and food, always busy which is always a good sign! 👍

Had a lovely experience at this cafe. I came in with three of my little nieces ages 4-6. The service was wonderful! Great family atmosphere & food filling & tasty. Thanks so much Ellys cafe, really appreciate your efforts today x I’ll be back x

We have recently moved to South Croydon and decided to try this lovely little cafe. The food is amazing aswell as the service. The staff is very polite and the atmosphere is great.

Great food always! , get my food here daily!

English breakfast included two hash browns and plenty of toast with tea or coffee included in the price (50p extra for a hot chocolate) Table service and take credit or debit cards. Was well worth the visit on a Saturday morning on the way back from Banstead Woods parkrun

Great food great staff great prices

Had a sumptuous breakfast with polite and cultured staff ready to welcome their guests.Its an amazing experience.

Brilliant food. Friendly atmosphere. Good value for money.

What a fantastic, proper cafe. I love a great cooked breakfast. I am 58, had breakfasts all over the UK. In every type of establishment. This was outstanding. Absolutely outstanding. Service, choice, quality of food. Staff really friendly, helpful and understanding (took my old dad) cannot recommend Elly’s enough. Unfortunately I live in North Yorkshire but will definitely return when able to do so. So great to have fabulous bubble and squeak available. Fried bread amazing and tons of mushrooms. If you love a cooked breakfast, this is the place for you! Thank you Elly’s! Full of local people and workers. Great atmosphere.

Perfect English breakfast, in an atmosphere that we love! Generous plate with taste! Kindness from the entire team from the entrance to the chef. Thank you, see you soon

Popped in for a quick brunch between meetings. Fast friendly service, tasty food. We had big breakfast and set 3. Very generous portions. Very happy. We'll be back

Always amazing quality food and service. I have been going for years and each and every time it's a great experience. Thank you guys!

Great experience at Elly’s café. Really friendly staff, fast service, and nice food over all ☺️

such lovely people, great service and food is amazing.

another amazing meal with plenty on the plate popped in with the Mrs for brunch great staff as always would highly recommend

Great food every time. I would highly recommend.

Amazing people, fresh and good quality food. Always best breakfast in Purley . Thank you guys

I am currently traveling in London and I came into this cafe to eat breakfast, the welcome was simply incredible with a feeling of being at home, as if it was my big brother or sister who was taking me served my dish, plus the food was simply delicious. If you pass by here, don’t hesitate!

This cafe is always our top choice for a breakfast spot locally. Everything is consistent. The service, staff and food is always top quality. No complaints.

Really good cafe large menu with lots of choice. Haven't been to this cafe before that was pleasantly surprised with the quality of food and service. It had all the choices you would expect from a modern cafe. Very reasonable prices. We would definitely go again.

Service is 10/10, lovely staff and food taste banging! My favourite cafe of all time!

Food is amazing , amazing customer service skills and this will definitely be becoming my local cafe !!!

I’ve been in many cafes in my time but this one beats them all. Food comes out quickly and the food is second to none. There’s always a personal service with every customer that comes in. Absolutely excellent in my book. Definitely worth a visit.

When I entered, I had the impression that I was entering someone's house... everyone knows each other, is smiling and seems to be having a nice time (customers and staff). I joined them and for a moment I felt like I was at home. Thank you.

Excellent Cafe excellent service best cafe in Croydon by far!

ellys cafe has very friendly staff and great food, definitely recommend !!

I have previously scored some 4*s but this is unfair and a mistake because they are simply superb, work exceptionally hard, have a massive menu range and are the friendliest of folk throughout. The bus depot drivers 100yds away are prepared to walk the distance to enjoy the food. It could easily be the depot canteen!

Amazing food! Juicy chicken the marinade was delicious, place is really clean will definitely come back.

Not been here before, good food, clean and friendly. Not expensive either. Bacon was nice and not over salty. Will be back

Came to this restaurant for the first time to have breakfast with my girls, we were instantly greeted once we came in and the food was incredibly fast and delicious!! This is coming from 3 chefs! Definitely worth it and will come back :)

Went to the cafe for the first time today and it was lovely. Great service & food.

Corking L’al cafe the garage recommended whilst they were sorting our van en route to the ferry. Great customer service, good value food, speedy service and genuinely nice folk.

Best in town, see you again soon boys

Best cafe in South London, I would recommend Elly’s to everyone!

Great cafe friendly and foods top notch highly recommended

The food is fantastic and nice!!!!!!!!!!!!

Delicious food, staff are so friendly highly recommended to everyone.

Jon from Canada here. Elly's rocks! Best English breakfast I have tasted! The staff really care about the customer experience here. Great food, great atmosphere. Cheers!

Great food at a great price. Just round the corner from work and convenient to pop in for a quick bite to eat, always plenty of choice to try something different each time I visit. Never disappoints!

Top tier cafe from the food to the service.

Great food great tea and lovely customer service friendly make you feel at home highly recommend ⭐

Very friendly staff. Been going for years and the service and food has be 10/10 every time. Highly recommend.

I wouldn’t go to any other cafe

Great service, friendly staff who ensure you are looked after well. No long waiting to be served.

I go to this place anytime I can, love the food and the people! great staff

What a gem. Staff are beyond wonderful. Recommended!

Just new in South Croydon and this café make me feel so welcome. Staff are really friendly and warm, got couple of hot chocolate on the house for my little ones with marshmallows, that make kids so happy. Food is delicious and really good portion. Definitely a food place to spend a great time.Thank you 😊

Great food, great service would definitely recommend!

It's been a number of years since I last came here and the food is as good as ever with generous portions. The decor has been updated as well which is nice. I will definitely be heading here again if I'm in the area.

Ellys south Croydon is the best cafe in all London I have been to others but it just don’t beat ellys the meals they serve are freshly cooked to order and the portion sizing is very large it will fill you up with one bite I have been going here for many years now the quality and taste is still the same thank you guys 5 star all around ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ thank you guys for the level of service and friendliness and taste fantastic .
