This means food is cooked to order and done with love and care. Presentation of food was superb and will definitely come visit on a Sunday again! Choosing the buffet option would mean having so many variety of food available that would've otherwise costed you bonkers amount of money. Can't wait to go back now!! :D As for the missing one star. Well that'll be due to the lack of service I received. I was made to feel unwelcome despite it being a very special occasion. In fact I was blanked by the waiter deliberately when I tried to get his attention.

Mae Ping is one of the loveliest restaurants in South Croydon, and those who know the area will…read moreknow there's some pretty stiff competition on this strip, with eateries jammed in from The Swan and Sugarloaf almost all the way into central Croydon.

The staff are friendly and can give recommendations but if you want the standards ie Tom Yam Kung soup , Pad Thai , Green and Red curries , stir fried pork in basil , steamed jasmine rice , mango and coconut puddings you won't go wrong . Give your tastebuds a treat and try something other than a curry and beer , it won't cost the earth either and the decor is pleasant too. Parking is ample around the the vicinity . Good food that hits the spot.

I was skeptical but my friend has a pretty good eye for picking quality restaurants so I trusted…read morehis gut. Plus, I really love mango sticky rice and hoped that they'd have it on the menu. Sadly, they did not but I understood the explanation. We ordered corn fritters, vegetable tempura, hand fried spring rolls, green curry with tofu, pad Thai, and a Tiger beer. It was good. I'm glad it was so good because it is not fast. Which means someone is actually cooking the food. Which we need to appreciate more. So go there when you're with someone whose company you enjoy and you aren't in a hurry. Sit. Have a beer or two and wait. It's coming and it'll be good. It's also good because it isn't TOO anything. My friend wanted more seasoning and asked if it would be rude to ask for salt or something. I decided that it would. This is a family spot. "You go tell him his wife's food isn't to your liking", I joked while savoring my dish. This man wanted to ask for salt or (gasp) soy sauce(!) and he had eaten the decorative vegetables on the plate. It was good solid Thai food. The server was kind and celebrated my sloppy attempts at speaking Thai. The spot is not what you'd expect, it's homey, the ceiling and walls covered in standard cultural decor but it gave speakeasy. Like a place the mob would frequent. Quiet, comfortable, private, and low traffic. This should he a neighborhood favorite.

I've been here a couple of times now and the prices here are average for purley but are close to…read moreLondon prices. We spent £60 for two starters, two main course and noodles with four single spirit drinks. There is also 10% service charge on everything which is not explained clearly and can be a surprise once you receive your bill. If you come here with a group of people be prepared that everyone doesn't get their meal at the same time and different courses come out at different times as we first receive our rice and noodles to then wait a further 20 minutes to get the main dish. Larger groups of 10 tables would also be blocking part of the walkway due to the shape of the room. As purley is spoilt for choice of restaurants this would not be my first choice!

The food is pure bliss, catering for all pallets and ages. I have to say that my personal favourite on the menu is the Pad Grapraw Gai or jungle currey with tiger prawns - DELICIOUS! and no sparing on the prawns either. On a summer evening or lunch time, the back garden area is opened up and there is comfortable seating - a perfect little oasis in this busy part of Purley.

Consider Maneeya as a palce to go on a birthday, anniversary or on a date with someone you want to impress. Any of the prawn currey's on offer are wonderful, particularly if you like chilli and garlic in abundance. The platter of thai appetisers is also good and fun to share. The restaurant is spacious and situated at the back of the Charles Cryer Theatre which may explain why it is so quiet during the week. The decor, including fishtank makes you think you're in an entirely different (and more glamorous place) than Carshalton. All in all a lovely dining experience.

I can't even put into words how good this place really is !…read more We've driven past it many times, as we live jsut around the corner and have never paid much attention to it ... possibly put off by the bright pink exterior ! However, after eating many times at Regional Thai in Cheam which is by far the best Thai restaurant I've ever eaten in, outside of Thailand - we found out that Max's Thai Cooking is owned by the very same 2 ladies who founded and own Regional Thai in Cheam. So, we booked a table there for Valentine's Day and were blown away as soon as we walked through the door. It's a REAL hidden gem of a place. The interior is lovely, really well done and you totally forget that you're in Wallington whilst in there. The food is ridiculously good and really reasonably priced ... couldn't believe that a meal for 2 with a bottle of cava was so reasonable. For anyone looking for a good Thai restaurant in Croydon or Sutton ... you've jsut found your place ! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Thanks, Andy P.

I've eaten in many a thai restaurant all over the world and never in a million years did I expect to find the best one out of the lot right on my doorstep in humble old Wallington!

So pleased to have found this.
