Cafe Tiffin in Islington

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

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.

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!

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.

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

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 😁

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.

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

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.

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

Food was great, nice cosy restaurant.

Delicious food, very attentive service and a cosy neighborhood feel.

Great tasting food, and awesome service!

Perfect. Thank you to the restaurant for the amazing food

All is great I recommend it , staff are very friendly , food is delicious

Food is great, staff very friendly and helpful Would recommend

Great curries!!! Best I’ve had in ages! Recommended!

Expected food to be a little spicier but delicious nonetheless. And great service

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

Great food and service was amazing. Highly recommend

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

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

One of the best Indians in London. Delicious!

Delicious meal with each dish exploding with distinct flavours. Try any dish with okra because they are all well done. Unfortunately, the service was poor - rounded up the bill without asking and asked to leave to make room for next sitting while finishing our wine. 4.5/5 food. 2/5 service.

Food is very delicious!! Staff very kind and welcoming!! An address to remember!! Thanks you very much 😊

Excellent service. Good chat around

Tunu was amazing, by far best curry I’ve ever had the garlic chilli was amazing. Be back again for sure. Loved it. Got no more words it was great

Great place, TUNUR is a great bloke, great service and great food

Food was good and worth the price..

Amazing meal and great service! I really loved the service from the staff in. They are great Tony. Ram. Shakel. Nashir

I must commend; Tunu Ram shakel nashir. They are all amazing. Perfect customer service, and I appreciate all the efforts.

Best Indian food in London! And excellent, kind staff.

Super food, super service, intimate and very pleasant😊

Tried the chef’s special. Best lamb shank I’ve ever had. In a warm, informal environment that feels like you’re eating in a friend’s house rather than a restaurant. We’ll definitely be coming back.

Fantastic service - requested spicy and so yummy!

Just brilliant fresh delicious food and a warm welcome. Can’t ask for more

Wonderful Indian dishes...🙌🏻 South Indians also won't regret going there🤓 Food served are beyond expectations ❤️ Perfect atmosphere to dine-in..

I love the place’s ambience, the people and the food!! Such a fail-proof place for eat out❤️

Superb cuisine - not your average curry house. We had a sublime lamb shashlik - the first time I have ever had it served succulent and medium rare - and an incredibly tender lamb shank in a zesty curry sauce. The naan was like a cloud, the papodums crispy and delicious. The waiting staff were incredibly kind and helpful. Thank you, Cafe Tiffin - we’ll See you again soon!

Had an amazing time. Great food and great staff!

Amazing food and service. Thanks so much to the lovely people at Cafe Tiffin.-

Tiny simple room, busy with diners and take-out and delivery folk. Lovely service. Excellent sauces. Get there early!

The food doesn’t taste good at all!! Butter Chicken is different from what other restaurants serve, and Chicken tikka wasn’t properly cooked

Best curry in London. Make sure you get their specials. Really friendly staff as well- shout out to Tunu who is a legend

Tenu is the best waiter, give him a 20% payrise immediately.

Great food, friendly service, brilliant value - YUM

Lovely little place we found by accident when we were searching for a pub close to our hotel on a Sunday evening. The food was great (we had Butter Chicken, Karai, Rice and Naan) and the people that ran the place are really friendly and accommodating.

Very nice food, good atmosphere and great service. Highly recommend!

Great place, great laugh but bring your own alcohol.

Really good Indian restaurant. Super cheap and incredible quality.

Très bon indien. Très typique. Nous avons beaucoup aimé. Les serveurs sont très sympathiques ! Merci

Always a pleasure to to eat at Cafe Tiffin: brilliant, friendly service and delicious dishes with a great selection of veggie options.

Het restaurant is zeer goed en heeft gevarieerd aanbod aan gerechten. Mijn tip is om Chef aanbevelings menu kiezen, want die zijn uniek lekker. De medewerkers zijn goed en bieden goede service aan ons. Hier zou ik weer terug willen komen om nieuwe gerechten te proeven.

The food tasted amazing then a hour later gave me a bellyache

First time visit. The service and food were just simply brilliant. Some wonderful and different chef creations as well as all the usual. We didn’t realise they had no licence and fancied a beer so nipped around corner to Tesco. (No corkage which is fab). It’s a tight squeeze for maybe 20 covers so recommend booking through their website.

Warm welcome, very good service. Friendly staff. Good food.

Fantastic food as always and squeezed us in magically even though fully booked.

Great food, lovely vibe. Really enjoyed our stay

Very very nice food love the vibes and the service is very good

amazing overall, food service vibe!

Amazing services and great food!

Tunu is a top bloke, being your own booze and the best curry of my life. If your debating on here to go come here. Honestly best curry of my life.

The chief recommendation of slow cooked chicken is really good. And the staff is super friendly. A relaxing weekday dinner

Koby and tumu absolutely incredible, food beyond amazing and service so quick !!

Tasty Indian cuisine, at affordable rates plus great quantity.

This place was so delicious and cute, the waiter recommended the chef’s special chicken korma (bangeladeshi style) and it was phenomenal! Highly recommend!

Amazing place, lovely lovely curries, amazing staff and BYOB is absolutely ideal, reasonably priced, definitely recommend to anyone

Great indian food, very delicious for vegans and vegetarians! Bring your own drinks, super service!

Amazing food and service. Highly recommend.

Amazing and very friendly service! Very adaptable menu for a vegetarian, and delicious food. The special was a Bangladeshi curry and absolutely divine. Will be back and recommending to friends!

Really friendly staff and amazing food!

Fab food and the peshwari nan was the best yet

They were fab, very accommodating even though we had a big party

Came with a large group, service and food was excellent, will definitely be returning. Thank you!

Amazing food. Service is amazing. Proper curry house.

Delicious food and super friendly staff!! Felt really authentic and the nihari was divine - I recommend speaking to the staff about specials. (Also BYOB!)

Great food, great atmosphere and great service!!

Stunning food, especially the lamb shank, wow. Lovely service, it’s BYOB too! Can’t fault it, stunning

Great service, excellent food. Will definitely be going back

I work in the local area and had been looking for somewhere to get a decent curry to takeaway at lunch time. So glad I found Cafe Tiffin, have utilised the takeaway service, and also dined in the restaurant with friends. Would highly recommend, great selection of menu choices, with friendly and attentive service. Food is absolutely delicious. Will be back soon.

A very good meal. Reasonably priced and food well spiced. Nice atmosphere and good service. BYO if want alcoholic drink.

Superbly cooked food served by exceptionally jolly and helpful staff. There was no generic Asian feel to the dishes. My vegetable biryani, something that can sometimes be bland, had a zing. Vegans have real choice. They made me a delicious, piquantly spiced crispy okra vegan starter. If they did vegan onion bhajis I'd be in heaven! The restaurant is unpretentious, cafe-like, and small, so booking is wise. There are no-alcohol beers, but if you want the traditional stuff you have to take your own.

Delicious good. Cosy atmosphere. Very friendly service. Will be back (and would strongly recommend).

Friendly and welcoming with cosy ambiance and authentic Bangladeshi and N.Indian food. Can't recommend highly enough - really delicious. We will definitely be back.

Such a cute place with really authentic and delicious meals. We had three appetizers and two entrees and everything was excellent. Naan was super fluffy and warm. Service was great and surrounding area was nice as well. Parked the scooter right out front without a problem!

Great food good service. Definitely come back.

Very nice cooking, one of the best in town. The managers are super friendly and play great music, great atmosphere.

Warm and friendly service. Food excellent also. Lamb Jalfrezi hits the spot!

Excellent service and hospitality. Delicious dishes and great atmosphere.

Quaint and cosy restaurant. Staff are friendly and professional. Will recommend to friends and family. If you’re in the area of Clerkenwell, this is a must try!

Authentic, v friendly Bengali restaurant. Intimate setting (but also great with kids during our early sitting). No corkage charge 👍

Good food and waiter/ owner was lovely.

Delicious food and excellent service every time we visit. Highly recommended!

Best Indian food in the uk 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
