Tiffins - Angus

Awful experience. I ordered 2 warm croissants with cheese and a hot chocolate expecting something special due to the £15 price tag. Unfortunately, we were served 2 burnt croissants with grated cheese on top, which were rock hard. The service was incredibly slow as well. It's outrageous to charge such high prices for low-quality food. I definitely won't be returning.

This restaurant is the perfect spot for a casual lunch or catching up with friends over coffee and cake. The staff is friendly and efficient. They offer a variety of hot and cold snacks as well as larger dishes, all of which are delicious. The homemade cakes are especially tasty, and I have tried many over the years without ever being disappointed.

The restaurant is extremely clean and welcoming. The staff, including the man in charge, are very friendly. I have visited 2 or 3 times and have enjoyed the coffee cake and meals, all of which were excellent. The portion sizes are generous and the food is tasty. The cakes are also delicious. I highly recommend visiting this cafe; you won't be disappointed.

Whilst on a business trip through Forfar, my family and I decided to stop off for a spot of lunch. We initially searched for a pub, however as it was a Tuesday, most were closed. We had high hopes for lunch here as other family members had excellent reviews of it. So we went inside, and were greeted by a lovely waitress who made us feel very welcome. There was nothing negative to note at first, except for the presence of only 2 other customers at the time and perhaps dated decor. We were served our drinks, which were OK, but we were charged £2.00 for not even a full can of Coke (unbranded also). We ordered, 2 cheeseburgers, 1 jacket potato with chicken tikka masala, 1 with prawns, and a kids chicken nuggets and beans. The prices were cheap, but the meat quality took the biscuit in my opinion. I was not pleased with the quality of my burger, seemingly being made from extremely processed, cheap beef. I neglected to tell the waitress because I could see it was a family-run business and I sympathised with them due to personal experience in hospitality. Despite my displeasure, I could live with a cheap burger. But the next day after ingesting some tasteless prawns, my mother woke up with an awful fever, sweats, and lethargy, and terrible diarrhoea and vomiting. We quickly deduced it was the prawns. It has been 2 days now and the illness is still working its way through. If you are ever in passing, please please please be careful what you order from Tiffins.

My husband and I stayed for the first time in Forfar to visit our friends who had moved here recently. First, I went one morning for a toasted teacake and vanilla cappuccino on my own and fell immediately in love with this beautiful café/restaurant. The same day I already went back again with my husband for lunch – he had an excellent curry and I had a lovely toastie. Then we came back with our friends for breakfast and we all loved the food, cakes, hot drinks and atmosphere with an incredibly friendly staff and proprietor. Now we're back in Germany but at least our Scottish friends can now and then say hello from us. We're missing Tiffins!
