Cafe Tiffin in Islington

Nice food, and I liked the delivery service. That’s all I want from deliveries. 👍

Quality of food was very poor. Very unprofessional presentation and cold food.

Not impressed with the vindaloo. Chicken had a nasty taste and the sauce was swimming in oil. I don’t mind a bit of oil but this was way too much. Cafe tiffin is either amazing or very poor quality. Disappointed again, as a regular customer I’m not sure I’ll be coming back ☹️

As always, 10/10. Amazing communication and above all, amazing food. Delicious, perfectly cooked and generous portions.

This is one of my favourite curry houses in london. The paneer biryani was so good. I think about it at least weekly. My friends love the chicken curries as well.

Very friendly in-house and their deliveries are quick and friendly too. Just had a really nice lamb dansak and tandoori roti that hit the spot. If you are eating in, take alcoholic drinks with you (there is a shop nearby if you forget!)

Made a booking but when we turned up it was closed despite them not notifying us. What a rubbish name for an Indian😔

Made a booking, which was acceped, but it was closed when we arrived. Nobody told us 😔

Excellent execution of the dishes. Nice, clean, and light-handedly spiced dishes. Great ingredients and polite, genuinely respectful service. Also educating us on recipes used.

Absolutely delicious, really good food. Many thanks

We recently dined at Cafe Tiffin and had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, and the variety of flavors catered perfectly to both kids and adults. We particularly enjoyed the spicy Chicken Jalfrezi, which was bursting with rich, fiery flavors. The Butter Chicken was another standout, with its creamy, mild sauce that was comforting and delicious. The Vegetable Biryani was fragrant and flavorful, providing a perfect balance as our vegetarian option. The naans, especially the Cheese Naan, were fresh and paired excellently with all our dishes (as well as being a hit with the kids). Overall, the meal was a fantastic blend of spicy and mild dishes, ensuring everyone found something they loved. The service was friendly and efficient, making our dining experience even better. We will definitely be back!

Excellent expertly spiced food. Great flavors. Not heavily ovesauced like some other places. Genuine and attentive service. Real great quality.

Brilliant food, I had the special chicken on the bone with potatoes, it was so lovely. Would definitely come back again and let others know about it.

Best Indian Cuisine I’ve had in the UK! I can highly recommend this place!

We had a very good experience. A great amount of choices. A more down-to-earth experience with very nice food and good service. I recommend you try it.

The food was very horrible. Both the biryanis hardly has chicken or paneer. And the taste was below average, felt like i just ate rice. The naan hardly had any cheese, very disappointing food . Also, no cutlery was provided, we ordered it in a hotel and had no spoons to eat it the food. Totally waste of money,wish i would not have ordered it.

Absolutely delicious!! Quality, fresh, and flavorful!! Cozy and lovely atmosphere. The service was lovely and everyone was so kind. I cannot wait to come back and try more! If we lived closer, would make this a regular spot.

brilliant. saag. butter chicken. lamb curry.

Beautiful little restaurant tucked away, serving up fantastic Indian specialties. Attentive service and the best Indian food I’ve had in London - highly recommend!

Our daughter’s recommendation as her fave Indian results and it did not disappoint. Great food, friendly and helpful service, and a laid back atmosphere. The spicy mango chutney is great and the way the onions are caramelised. is fabulous. Just remember to BYOB.

Wow!!! What a fantastic find…and likely the best (friendliest) service I’ve ever had in London! This place was recommended to me by a fellow traveler and it was one of the best, most authentic Indian restos I’ve eaten at. They have great Indian resto “standards” - tikka masala and butter chicken, etc, but where they really shine are the chef’s regular and daily specials. And the naan - pillowy soft and tasty. The pompodums were some of the best I’ve had as well. The village style bindi was absolutely beautiful, as was the chef’s special creation - Niramish - wonderful vegetables and spices. My favorite however was the chicken methi - incredible flavor. I’ll definitely go back next time I’m through London!

Fantastic Indian restaurant in Clerkenwell. Great food, staff very kind, fast service, unpretentious but great quality. Must stop if you are in the area!

Delicious food, fantastic service, and great atmosphere! Highly recommended!

Excellent food, great service. Definitely recommend !

Really first class meal. The Mumbai Chicken was packed full of flavour and chicken! I came quite early so the restaurant wasn’t particularly busy, but I’m sure it will be (or certainly should be) later on. I was thinking about going to Brick Lane, but I’m so glad I didn’t as this was far far better than anything I have had there, and I have tried a lot! Can’t recommend highly enough, and great value too.

food was delicious, service was great, staff was awesome.

Absolutely delicious! The wait staff was incredibly friendly. My wife and I will definitely come again!

This restaurant and its employees were exceptional. Food is delicious and their recommendations were on point.

The best Indian I’ve ever had!!! And amazing service! Will come back asap!

Ah, the evening at Café Tiffin in Clerkenwell was nothing short of a delightful escape from the usual splendors that adorn our lives. As a member of the royal family, one is accustomed to the finest delicacies and the most opulent settings. Yet, this charming establishment, nestled amidst the bustling heart of London, provided an experience that was both refreshingly quaint and exquisitely satisfying. The ambience was most inviting, reminiscent of a cozy haven where one could enjoy the finer pleasures of life in a more intimate setting. Our repast commenced with the crisp and delicate poppadums accompanied by a splendid chutney tray, a perfect symphony of flavors that tantalized the palate. The onion bhaji, with its golden hue and impeccable seasoning, was a testament to the culinary prowess of Café Tiffin. The mains, comprising a rich and aromatic Lamb Korma and a divine Paneer Tikka Rogan, were cooked to perfection. Each bite revealed layers of carefully crafted spices, a true homage to the rich tapestry of Indian cuisine. The cheese naan and garlic fried rice served as impeccable accompaniments, adding a delightful texture and an additional burst of flavor to the feast. The service, akin to the finest royal protocol, was attentive and gracious, ensuring that our dining experience was nothing short of perfect. It is often said that luxury lies in the details, and Café Tiffin has mastered this art. The meal was reasonably priced, a pleasant surprise in an area dominated by high-end establishments. This gem of a restaurant, with its warm atmosphere and flavorful dishes, stands as a worthy alternative to the more ostentatious dining venues nearby. A visit to Café Tiffin is highly recommended for those who seek culinary excellence in a setting that feels like home away from the grandeur of the palace.

Happened to pass by and saw they were having an event. I found the staff welcoming and service with a smile when handing out bitesize food

Excellent food with very friendly staff and environment

Excellent food and nice staff! Muhib’s service is very very good!

World-class Indian cuisine in a beautifully appointed space. Great staff completes the warm atmosphere. Terrific date spot. The Tikka Masala and roast chicken were amazing. We'll definitely be returning!

Very friendly service with delicious and large servings! Come hungry!

This was the best Indian restaurant I’ve ever been to, including the USA. I would recommend this to anyone

Super authentic and affordable place! Service was also extremely nice.

Very nice food and quite reasonable prices

Best Indian food I’ve had in a while! & the young man who helped us was very sweet and attentive. 10/10 would recommend.

Really tasty and generous amount of chicken in the curry. Always lovely from here

Great food with nice modern style interiors and friendly staffs.

Food was delicious, even though the servers brought me food i didn't order, which of course was more expensive, and at one point ordered me to leave the table since they needed it again. So sad to see an awesome kitchen ruined by service 🤷

Highly recommended. Authentic Indian food, and very friendly service.

Off the chain Indian food. Simple. Cheap. Tasty.

Very nice atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food! Definitely will come back

This place is Brilliant. The food was excellent. Service was fast and the staff are absolutely fantastic - Cheerful, knowledgeable and warm. Tunu in particular, what a legend. Will definitely be going back.

Food was fantastic, we were recommended dishes and they were all amazing. Top curry house

Treated us like royalty all night. And delicious food! Will be back

Best Indian restaurant I've been too..consistently sensational food. I've also ordered for our work lunches. It a must try!

Wonderful waiter, atmosphere, and delicious food.

Chicken biryani and murgh makhani was delicious and good portion size. Food and plates came hot. The atmosphere is cosy, casual and staff were very friendly, chatty. Will definitely come again! Thank you :)

Food was delicious and the team is lovely. Tunu is the best !

Great veggie options and amazing service. We even got some stuff custom made. It's BYOB and they chilled our drinks whilst we waited. Really reasonable price. Was £25pp for mains, sides, naan and rice!

Great food and experience! Amazing staff and impeccable service especially with the free corkage.

Tasty, friendly Indian restaurant with Great food. They don’t serve alcohol, but we saw others bring in beer and wine.

Went here our first night in London - best decision we made! The staff was so welcoming and gave us some lovely recs. Food was delicioussss! Will be back!

Accommodated me as a solo traveler when everyone was part of a group. Nice staff and the head honcho is a good guy

Attentive and kind staff. Favorites were the mint yogurt and the chicken korai and of course the naan.

Outstanding food and attentive and friendly service. We would definitely come back!

They were so nice. Amazing service :) also good food

Great atmosphere, fantastic food and kind service. Felt very welcome and cosy

Had a fantastic time on a hen do! Thanks to the great staff for their recommendations. All the food was delicious. Look forward to returning

We had a lovely evening. Thanks for looking after us.

Had the mhaki daal, paneer tikka and popadums. The naan was so fluffy and lovely! The staff were super attentive and I had a great meal here

Very good little restaurant! I warmly recommend!

Loved the food, very authentic and the way it's supposed to be!

Walk by, and you'll miss this place. Really quaint Indian with amazing food and excellent service. The menu has loads of options and also adds in some chef specials. Extremely popular for such a small venue

Best curry in all of London! Great food, service, impeccable and lovely atmosphere. Bring your own beer and the world’s your lobster.

Had an amazing evening at Cafe Tiffin. Food is great and Tunu provided some incredible service and chat!

Great Indian food, friendly staff, would highly recommend for those visiting if you're in the area.

Great homemade food & the service is supper attentive.

I enjoyed my dinner here - got murgh makhani, coconut rice, cheese naan and the okra appetizer. Thr food was flavourful, and I especially liked the naan. The only thing I’d change is make the coconut rice a little less sweet as it was a bit over powering for my taste buds. The service was excellent, the waiter suggested what to order based on what I liked and came to chat in between courses. He also explained how they make some of the dishes here and what they mean from a culture point of view, which was a nice touch I appreciated. It’s a small and cozy space, and theres bigger tables thayt fit 8, as well as smaller ones for a couple.

Great Indian food served by lovely people in a nice neighborhood, definitely worth the visit!

The food was amazing, the special and other chefs recommendations were great. We’re local and have only been in once before and they remember you and what you had before, you feel at home and well fed!

Great neighborhood eatery with charming staff. Authentic dishes and cozy, casual ambiance. Highly recommend

Came here for our fiends birthday, amazing service and amazing food. Could not recommend will be coming back asap!

What a great place - found it by accident - great food, great people & great atmosphere. Will definitely be back.

We dined here yesterday to celebrate my friend’s birthday. It was an awesome experience for all of us! It was all our first time here and we were amazed with all the foods and service we have received. Friendly and respectful staffs, and extraordinary food made my experience so terrific!! Their Lamb tikka masala is one of my favourite, and also their Dynamite prawns is soooo good!!! And all their dishes were so amazing. I would definitely comeback here again with my other friends and family.

I’ve had takeouts from this restaurant many times and the food is always delicious. Lots of choice on the menu - you can go for more traditional dishes or more ‘British balti’ - and you won’t be disappointed. Tonight was my first time eating in and the food was even better - lamb shank special was a highlight.

Had a great meal and my husband had the lamb shank special and said it was the best he’d ever had. Will definitely go back and the staff are so welcoming 10/10 😁

lovely food, amazing service and great atmosphere. It’s bring your own booze so we enjoyed some wine we brought with us.

Thank you for a delicious dinner yet again.

We had a great time and the service was very friendly. Good address! (just a slightly noisy neighboring table in a small room)

everything was amazing! from the food, service, and atmosphere, will definitely come back again when visiting London 💖

Amazing Indian cuisine. Best I've had in my life. The tikka masala and butter chicken were amazing. Keema and special rice was delicious and the best was the garlic Naan. 10/10 would return

Super delicious food and friendly staff. Cosy atmosphere. Exactly what we were looking for! Will come back for sure. The garlic naan was some of the best I’ve ever had

My mum and I had dinner here early on a Saturday evening. The service was absolutely fabulous, the main server Tony (Big T) was so lovely and went above and beyond - even sharing some of the food they were having to break their fast which was delicious and a real treat. It was take your own alcohol and we also had a beautiful spiced tea for dessert. Beautiful food and service, highly recommend

Thanks to Koby and all the team for helping us with organising a last minute fundraising dinner and activity at Cafe Tiffin. Staff were very accommodating as usual and food was on point and well within the set budget! Besides then, food and service here are always great, must try

Friendly, hidden away indian. Attentive staff, great menu and food. Bring your own alcohol from shop around the corner. Hidden gem.

Great food and service was amazing. Highly recommend

Lovely food, great service. Perfect for a team meal. Friendly staff
