Walking into Happy Days, I was half expecting to see The Fonz behind the counter serving coffee.


He wasn't, but barista Mel explained that the name was influenced by the film Grease. I looked around but couldn't see Olivia or John; it must have been their day off!


The first impression is that of an old fashioned café with booths along one wall.


The café is full of 1950/1960s memorabilia everywhere you look.


It is a donut café, offering many varieties. Plain cinnamon donuts are only $1.00 each and coupled with a coffee, make a quick snack.



Man's best friend is not forgotten with a range of doggie donuts. While you enjoy your coffee in the outdoor seating area, your canine friend can join you with his or her own dish.




Dinosaur donuts are available for any passing dinosaurs.


The bill of fare was more extensive than just donuts. You can order burgers, hot dogs, waffles, ice creams, milkshakes and more, not to mention coffees.



Happy Days opened in 2018 and has built up a regular clientele. Co-founder Marcus was happy to relate the success of the business.


It wouldn't be the 1950s without a jukebox and there was one, with a pair of roller skates, another icon of the era.


More nostalgia was about. A car hub cap which all cars used to have, a VW fridge with the motor at the back and a Betty Boo doll, not wearing her heart on her sleeve.


There are numerous cafes in Main Street Croydon but this one stands out as unique.
