Challa Gardens Hotel - West Croydon

Today, I was at the restaurant with my family and we had to wait a long time for our food. When it finally arrived, it was not fresh and had a strong unpleasant smell. I tried to remain calm with the staff, but they did not seem to care. I have no plans to return to this restaurant.

I complained to them about our terrible experience at the restaurant, but they didn't even have the courtesy to respond.

It is worth meeting the one star. I had the chefs special crumbed garfish with chips. for two miniscule filets. that is a fish in the round. at the current price for fish, his cannon! my partner had the extremely fat roast lamb....I saw the roast on tge carvery and they seemed to sit in water in a foil bag. the salatable was one of the worst I have ever visited. the alleged bratkartoffeln sat in water and were much too big. there were hardly any other things that were worth eating. I think the kitchen and the management must have a sitting meal and have a really good look at where this place is.

It's always good to have a pub meal and there's a salad bar. Food itself is ok. It's a local pub quality and style. Priced to reflect. No frills. Eat and go.

Four of us dined at this hotel for lunch. Food was excellent value, well presented and plenty of it!. A salad and hot veggie bar complemented our meal.The dining area was comfortable and attractive. Upon arriving at this hotel one can be surprised by the...weathered and perhaps neglected outside appearance. However the inside and bistro area are the complete opposite. This is a great local pub serving mostly local people.
