Came in for a late lunch, and it was excellent. Many GF and VG options (gluten free & vegan). Various levels of spicey, medium was good enough for us. Recommend either the Kottu or the Dallo Devil squid.

While traveling the NC500, we were looking for a place to eat in Thurso. Considering my Sri Lankan heritage we decided to visit T's Cafe. The location is a bit lowkey but there are signs leading you to the entrance. I can assure you that they serve delicious authentic Sri Lankan dishes, might i say even better then my own (Sri Lankan) father's cooking. They even have an extensive list of vegetarian & vegan items on their menu. The Ceylon rolls are absolutely amazing, i myself had the beef/pork rolls while my girlfriend had the vegetable rolls. The black pork curry paired with the paratha roti was sooo tasty, and so was the sambar curry if i may speak for my girlfriend. I would definitely recommend coming here!

extremely minimal interior design but had a very positive vibe regardless absolutely delicious food! We enjoyed coconut roti, mixed vegetable vegan curry, a roti stir fry dish (sorry i forgot what it was called), and rice it was finger lickin good and i’m already regretting not ordering more to go:(

This Sri Lankan restaurant in Thurso is truly outstanding. We enjoyed an unforgettable lunch in last year, that transported us back to the flavors of Sri Lanka. The owner, Josh, and his partner were incredibly friendly and kind, enhancing our dining experience. The food was exceptionally delicious, making it a must-visit spot.

The crab curry was amazing. With crab bought up the road at the harbour and all fresh ingredients. The chicken kottu was also beautifully cooked, great spicing and again all fresh ingredients and cooked from scratch while we waited.

Absolutely beautiful food! The Ceylan pancake rolls were delicious. Then curry & devil dish were both fantastic. Side of roti & egg fried rice lovely! Lovely young waitress, could do with a little more training but very very nice. Chef & gentleman server were very nice. We will definitely be returning.

Convinced to go here by the reviewer who was from Sri Lanka and said the chef was better than his father at cooking. It was absolutely correct. The food is terrific, layers of flavor that clearly he takes time to cook right and sources food locally. We were very glad to have gone!

Saturday night and it was the only place open at 21:00, sure let’s give it a go and wow! In short: Delicious food, super friendly staff! That’s it, we gotta come here every week not to try everything on the menu
