Hi! Well-off commuter resident of Croydon here!
The only reason I ever have for going in to central Croydon is to drink
at the Dog n Bull occasionally. There is literally nothing else there of
any interest to me whatsoever. I have local greengrocers and butchers,
and everything else is either delivered from the interwebs or not
available in Croydon town centre anyway.
Cheers, this is largely how I suspected things to be. FWIW, some of
the housing areas of Croydon are very nice (and pricey)

Well, it turns out I lied to you!

Someone phoned me yesterday and asked if I wanted to come and play board
games at a new "board games cafe" on Croydon High Street. So I did. I
now have two reasons to go into central Croydon.

FWIW it's called Ludoquist, and has a decent choice of beer, good cheap
pizzas, and of course lots of board games, both modern and traditional.
