Outstanding

The best kebab you'll come across meat or otherwise. Even my carnivorous friends now opt to eat here in box Park as its that delicious.
Portions are great, well balanced wraps with plenty of meat but also lots of salad to cut through the grease. The chips are some of the best I've tasted. There's a lovely spiced salt on them.
Staff are very friendly and I think it's very reasonably priced given how pricey many of the other shops are in box park

Excellent

Very good portion sizes and the chips are the perfect crispness! I eat here all the time and they never disappoint. Great to see the menu expanding

Good

Food was lovely but quite on the salty side, I say this as someone who usually likes salty food
Portions were really big, worth the money

Always excellent

Even when I feel like I order on an 'off day' the food from WTP is incredible.

Really filling, a wrap could easily make two meals.

The wraps, chip boxes, salad boxes are all excellent as are the sauces. The baklava is a real treat and they also sell vegan ice cream from the freezer. Always friendly and really fast service as well.

If ordering from deliveroo, food is well packaged.

Pros: Super tasty, Filling, Great dessert options for a fast food place

Incredible!!!

First tried what the pitta at the vegan campout and loved it! Only just realised you are so close, had the vegan kebab at Boxpark and it was even better than I remembered. I’ll definitely be back and will be recommending to everyone!

Pros: The “meat” is incredible!, Atmosphere and music, Friendly

Perfect junk food

This is where to go, right now at boxpark. Good portions, staff are super friendly, a few options to choose from. But the winner is definitely the doner kebab. The baklava is good as well.

Pros: Friendly staff, good price, flavourful

Cons: Food can be a bit too salty at times.

Donner for Dinner?!

Great vegan donner with all the trimmings and meal deals available, including organic sides and drinks. Friendly staff, no seating but the box parks central benches are social and fun!

Fast and vegan

Easy to find vegan pitta food meal, located next to Croydon east station. I chose the Very delicious vegan doner and it was tasty and filling. The wrap was made in house and was happy to meet such nice staff. Overall I would recommend this joint to all veg or non-veg and guarantee all will like it

Pros: Great tasty food and fast

Cons: bit steap prices but worth it.

Friendly Croydon street food

This is more of a street food places than a restaurant, located in Croydon Boxpark, right next to East Croydon Station. £8 for a kebab. £12 for kebab, chips and can of non-alcoholic drink. There is plenty of seating on the Boxpark benches both covered and in the open. The menu is not extensive but the food is prepared in front of you, so you can specify ingredients.

Pros: friendly staff, good quality food, excellent location

Cons: A little bit expensive, No vinegar for chips

Tasty!

I wasn’t sure about this as I have never had a kebab before, but this was incredible! I had the chip box I think it was called. Was delicious! Even my non vegan friend tried the kebab “meat” and was really surprised and enjoyed it. Also had the baklava and that was amazing but super sweet (which baklava is anyway)

Pros: Friendly staff, Tasty food

Delicious vegan kebab

Just had the kebab which was delicious. It’s soya based and really tasty. Maybe a bit onion heavy but you can choose your fillings. It’s a teeny bit expensive at £7.95, but you do get a lot for your money. It’s good and filling.

Pros: Yummy food

Cons: A bit expensive for take out

Still not sure

I have meal deal1 which was donner with baklava and drink. To be honest, donner was too big. Just too much for one person. Quite messy to eat and very very salty.
Baklava was absolutely lovely.
I have also ordered tzaziki and OMG yummy!

At first I was sceptical but now I love it!

I wasn't sure about this place at first as I was worried it would be too 'meaty' but now I'm a regular!

I usually get the doner boxes with chips and you can choose your salad. The chips have yummy paprika salt on too.

Staff are friendly and chatty too.

Pros: Great food, friendly staff

Great Doner!

Been here a couple of times and had the vegan doner and the lamacun (which is sort of like a pizza, without the cheese). Not sure about the lamacun, it may be traditional to have a pizza like base with tomato puree and veggies on top, but I personally would prefer some lovely non-dairy cheese melted on top. The vegan doner is very tasty and very convincing too, got the right taste and texture. It's all pretty filling too.

Pros: Great doner

Cons: Lamacun isn't to my personal preference

delicious vegan food!

Love What the Pitta but this is first visit to the Croydon box park branch. This one is actually better than the old pump one in shoreditch as they have more toppings and drinks options too! Had just the doner with hummus, salad and chillies and it was amazing - very filling too!
