Uncle Lim's - Whitgift Centre

Amazing hidden gem tucked in away in Croydon. The best place in south London for Malaysian food. Dishes such as mai goreng and nasi lemak are served here. Along with my personal favourite of teh tarik tea.

Authentic Malaysian canteen style food based inside the whitgift centre directly above the main entrance on the first floor.
Decor was simple and reminded me of a Malaysian canteen.
Friendly service and although food took a while (we were told there would be a bit of a wait as it was busy) the food was worth the wait.
We ordered the curry laksa and the wat dan hor (fried flat rice noodles with seafood layered with a creamy egg gravy on top.
Will definitely be back to order the other dishes.

Having lunch at Uncle Lim's Kitchen for the past few days. Thanks to the staff for the friendly service. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Really friendly staff, "noodles fresh from the factory" as the lady said lol she was really funny. Would definitely come back from 👍

Excellent food and excellent service! My family and I have been coming for years and years and we love it so much. They’ve started doing Malaysian cold coffee too which is incredible. Couldn’t recommend this place more

it’s such a gem! the food was delicious! the staff was friendly and so kind. The portion was big and it was good price. I had Nasi goreng seafood.

Great value, large portions and food made fresh. Authentic Malaysian food in Croydon. I’d recommend curry laksa and teh tarik, just like home. Friendly staff but cash only.

We travelled over an hour to get to Uncle Lims because its that amazing. The trip was well worth it and we will be back again. We got the vegetable curry laksha to eat in and got the seafood nasi goreng, prawn rendang and seafood char kuey teow to take away. All the food was amazing. We loved the curry laksha and its some of the best laksha we have ever had. Each dish was flavorful, authentic Malaysian good food. We also had the cassava dessert which also had coconut in it and it was delicious and a good snack for the road home. Sarah was lovely and very attentive and made us feel very welcome.
