CR1 Bar & Lounge - (Near Croydon, london)

Anant Borole I am not a West African native and I dined here on a late Sat afternoon. I.e. ymmv but I found the service to be good and the food to be hot, plentiful and quickly served. I had the wakye with fish stew, with plantain on the side. I was bicycling in the area when I saw the place, and the staff let me bring my cycle in while I ate. I will be back to try other items on the menu. :)

Georgia Hetherington I first came in here in 2018 when it was Viet 2 Go. In 2023 it was renamed Banh Mi Vietnam, but owned and run by different members of the same family who have done the place proud, I loved it today as much as I always did before ☺️ there is a relaxed welcoming atmosphere, the restaurant is clean and tidy, the food is fresh, hot, delicious and served up quickly. We had tofu pho in veggie broth, and vegetarian spring roll noodle salad with a pot of green tea. Plenty of flavour and fresh ingredients at very good prices. I dont come to Croydon often but will definitely return next time Im town.

Hongwei Lin Ordering the meal A for one person. Make me miss my students canteen and life in China high school. Tasty great as well, short distance from my address. More like a family restaurant, hoping to come with friends next time to share my favourite.

Simon Lee I’ve been eating at McDermott’s for years, and was surprised to notice I had failed to leave a review sooner! Written by someone who probably eats too many fish and chips in too many locations: I reckon they’re some of the consistently best in the country. The batter is always crisp and crunchy, with perfectly cooked fish within, the chips are hand-cut, the staff are always friendly and you can even get London Pride in here for less than you’d pay at the pub! Always happy to call in, and even make an effort to visit.

Vincent Chan Staff was friendly. Chicken was taste good. But chicken thighs was not much. I think half chi chicken will be fit for eat more people.

Arun Chandrasekaran A colleague of mine took me this small and cozy Kurdish restaurant and told me not to underestimate the taste and the quality of the food by the look of it. He was right. I have had Greek cuisine, Lebanese cuisine, Persian cuisine, Iraqi cuisine and so on in various countries. But none of them comes close to this restaurant. This is the best middle Eastern restaurant outside of middle East without doubt. Their cuisines have an authentic taste to them. Their kabobs are juicy and very tasty. I love their thin breads with tasty curry. Try their lentil soup and Mashtaw which is made of butter milk, lemon juice and salt. The food is not expensive for the quality of the food. Must visit for any foodie!!
