Addiscombe is a place in the London Borough of Croydon. It is situated just to the northeast of central Croydon, and is home to a high proportion of people who commute to Central London, owing to its proximity to the busy East Croydon railway station and Tramlink, linking Addiscombe with other parts of Croydon and Bromley. Notable parts of Addiscombe life include the Builders Arms, an excellent pub that serves Fuller's beer, and The Banana Leaf, one of London's finest South Indian restaurants. A focal point of the Addiscombe community is the Claret Freehouse, near Addiscombe tram station, that has served local regulars with an extensive range of fine real ales for many years and has often won CAMRA awards.

Addiscombe railway station - about 500 metres west of Addiscombe's main parade and the present tram station - was demolished following the withdrawal of services from Elmers End. In the section between Woodside and Addiscombe railway station, part has been prepared for a "linear park" and part redeveloped for housing as East India Way. The section of line between Elmers End and Woodside and the section of the Woodside and South Croydon Railway between Woodside and Coombe Road have been converted to Tramlink tracks.
