    I cannot sing the praises of this place enough.

    The food is amazing, and pretty unique for the area.

    Every time we have been, sadly not for a while as i have been working away, the good variety of food has been brilliant, the service friendly and warm and the specials well worth trying

    I would echo the sentments of the other reviewer in wishing this place some better business, if anywhere in Croydon deserves it i woulds say it is this place.

    The food is south african influenced Indian food, and uses ingredients that would more commonly be found in a south african kitchen/shop than in an Indian one, but the food is still noticeably of an Indian flavour.

    Writing this review has made me decide to go there tomoorow night, it's been far too long for me.

    Try the brai (maybe spelt that wrong) chops with mashed potato and never look back

    1860! Incredible Asian/South African food!
    Current
    1860 is superb. I've eaten there many times now & the quality of the cuisine is second to none on every occasion. The menu is fascinating, with an extensive vegetarian selection & some truly wonderful starters... but the main course Chicken n Methi is quite simply the finest Asian dish I've had in 20 years living in the UK. A simple delicious Roti & the most incredibly fragrant steamed rice you can imagine make the perfect accompaniment.

    The staff are courteous & friendly at all times, but it saddens me sometimes that the place isn't busier. There are many much more popular places for a curry in South Croydon but none of them come close to the quality & orginality of 1860.

    I cannot recommend this place strongly enough!
