I always look forward to a change of trains at East Croydon that gives me enough time to stop in for some chicken wings, delicious and really hit the spot on the run!

Heard about Tasty Bites via word of mouth. The kiosk is found at the end of the platforms on the bridge which exits out to the rear of East Croydon Station. I had the Mutton Curry. So delicious and very satisfying. Also ordered a mini Victoria Sponge which was so fresh and yummy. Prices are good considering the high quality of food available. Very cheerful and pleasant member of staff who described the food to me perfectly. This is a hidden Gem. You need to seek it out and try it. You won’t be disappointed.

Absolute favourite place at Croydon, delicious food and amazing staff who's work there. Food always nice and warm. I've been recently having jerk chicken patty and I fall in love. Recommended to everyone who love Caribbean food.

Very friendly staff and great food, the mutton curry most popular and the patties, every item hand made, they do not believe in additives hence hand made on the day, definitely worth the price and a visit.

I come here a few times a week for my lunch. I usually get the mutton and sometimes the pattys. Seriously a hidden gem! The owner of this place is lovely and goes above and beyond. I’m usually served by her daughter who is a big credit to her and the business Only regret is I didn’t try this place sooner

Had a sausage, bean and cheese melt from here twice now, both times quick, friendly service and food was tasty, hot and satisfying. It’s good to have some nice hot food options that far up the platforms. More recently bought chicken wings and mac & cheese here just before closing, and both were really tasty - Mac & cheese had crunchy cheesy topping and garlicky-like flavour throughout; the wings have a spicy different flavour, crispy outside, juicy inside, not very big.

Amazing vegan sausage roll! The tastiest in the UK I’ve had—juicy, with actual tiny veg bits inside! Better than Greg’s Lady was very nice as well. Highly recommend!!
