Croydon Park is about 13 kilometres south-west of the Sydney central business district. Croydon Park features a small commercial area along Georges River Road but is near to larger shopping areas in Burwood, Ashfield and Campsie. This is a small residential suburb but has many stores, particularly family owned such as Pure Gelato, Little Italy Restaurant, Little Thailand, Domino’s, Croydon Park Chinese Restaurant and ANAR Charcoal Chicken. The local residential community is multicultural and this is reflected in the variety of cuisines available in restaurants in neighbouring suburbs.
