As of November 2015, there was some kind of refit going on inside, and [http://web.archive.org/web/20151120070723/https://twitter.com/iamcroyds/status/666351208307818496 according to a photo on Twitter] it was going to be a pizza place called Pizzeria Pellone. This was open by mid-December 2015 <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/23048111773/ photo]</small>.

It was renamed to 500 Degrees in September 2016 <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/29317069693/ photo]</small>
, though remained under the same ownership. This also did takeaway and delivery, with online ordering [http://web.archive.org/web/20170112152332/https://hungryhouse.co.uk/500-degrees-croydon#menu via Hungry House]. It specialised in Neapolitan-style pizza, and had a wood-fired pizza oven.

As of July 2017, 500 Degrees was temporarily closed due to an issue with the extractor fan <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/35531538690/ photo of notice]</small>, and as of early October 2017 had still not reopened, but in November 2017 [https://twitter.com/sulineats/status/931629887584133123 Su-Lin reported] that
it was open again. It closed down again by late 2018, with a sign in the window offering catering equipment for sale <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/rjw1/45749578604/ photo]</small>.

It was vacant as of January 2019. As of March 2019 it was
still vacant, but with a notice in the window <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/40506592383/ photo]</small> stating that a business called Pretty Cakes was looking for staff.

Pretty Cakes was
open by mid-May 2019. This had a few tables and chairs for sit-in, but did hot drinks and cakes only, no savoury food. It closed down again by December 2019 <small>[https://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/49218022027/ photo taken through window]</small>.
