It's been given a much needed face lift, bringing it into the 21st Century and the same goes for the quality of the menu. As soon as you step foot through the door, you feel welcome - the staff are sociable and give the feeling that they like working there. The decor is contemporary without feeling stark - in fact it feels extremely comfortable both in the main bar area and the restaurant. Great lounging chairs and cosy corners compliment the muted tones and wooden floors. This isn't a 'spit and sawdust' kinda joint, but it doesn't turn it's nose up at the punters either. The food as I mentioned before is just delicious. Great flavours, not too much to choose from but a perfect balance of everything to suit everyone. Who could ask for more? And when it came to paying the bill, I felt that I'd got value for money and service that was offered. So please - for my sake, don't rush there too quickly. It's our little secret OK

The interior is just like the demeanor of the staff: warm, likeable, and feels like home. In fact, it was incredibly difficult to determine where we wanted to dine, because of the sheer cuteness found in the decor and ambiance of The Grumpy Mole. It was just too damn nice outside to take a beautiful, sunny day in England for granted. So, we opted to sit on their patio and enjoy a near perfect day. Knowing how delicious the curry is in the UK, I opted for that choice and my high expectations were met. The chicken was tender and well prepared. The curry flavor was abound but not overpowering, while the naan and rice were soft, not stale. But the real highlight of the experience was the charcuterie plate packed with meats, cheeses, olives, and more. If only I had the fortune to return to England more often, then I would visit The Grumpy Mole on every visit. For now, I will dream of that day and hope it is on a cold, winters night, where the interior of the Grumpy Mole is cozy and warmed by a crackling fire place, of which I am sitting by while sipping on a piping mug of cider.

My wife and I have been staying in this hotel for work repeatedly for the last month, and have…read moreconsequently eaten in their restaurant on many occasions. The menu is not extensive, but is varied. The food is fresh and beautifully prepared and presented. I am usually prepared for mediocre food in chain hotel restaurants, but the Larder has not failed to exceed expectations on every visit. The service is good but not too intrusive, and although, being a hotel, there are often large business parties, the attention you receive from staff is personal and warm. The fish dishes are particularly delicious and one marker of the restaurant is that I've never had a dessert, which means that the portions are generous. I know that hotels are not always first choices for a meal out, but I can't recommend the food and the staff at the Larder in the Hilton at Croydon highly enough.

If you want comedy forget the Sunday night open mic (what a painful experience that is) - order an Old Fashioned & watch the girls behind the bar have a melt down trying to make it. Comedy gold.

Basically this is the trendy bit of Croydon, plenty of good restaurants round here. And the food in the treehouse is pretty good too. In fact I'm going to go here first chance i get.

They have a Costa express machine and a big twinnings tea range. They have teapots, jugs for milk and sugars, sweeteners etc, everything you need. We have tested the unlimited option and drank hot drinks all day on several occasions and have never had any issues. The food is good value as they offer a daytime set menu 12-6pm Monday to Friday two mains £10.99 and two starters/desserts£2.50 which has enough choice considering the price. They also offer a buffet for £7.49/7.99/9.99 which has a different theme daily. Great for a quick, cheap lunch or dinner. They also buffet breakfast although I have never tried it. They do a good value kids menu which is £3.99 for a main and you can add starters or puds for 75p. The food is what you would expect from a pub chain, nothing fancy but good value and generous portions. I have tried the buffet a few times, on the curry day and fish and chip day and I wasn't disappointed although I would advise you get there around the time they serve it at 5pm as it can get quite busy. The curry buffet was tasty for pub grub and the fish and chips nice but a little on the greasy side. The meals on the main menu I have enjoyed more, especially the new vegetarian option of sweet potato and feta lasagna....very moorish. The service is slow and often you need to send out a search party to locate the staff who often disappear! If you order food, tables take awhile to be cleared even when it isn't very busy, however the staff are friendly and polite. The location provides a free car park, woth disabled access, inside it is spacious and with lots of tables, the toilets are clean and they have a separate disabled toilet too. I would recommend for a quick, cheap meals and causal drinks.
