From a now nine-strong “cheap ’n’ cheerful” Sri Lankan chain that wants to create a relaxed island vibe – candles in coconut shells, upbeat music – and has found a real audience for its “very tasty” and “excellent-value” small plates (including many vegan-friendly options) plus potent cocktails (aka ‘cocotails’).

“The food is exceptional and very different to what you’ll find elsewhere” at this fast-growing chain (nine and counting) of “cheerful” Sri Lankan venues – whose “absolute bargain prices (£35 for the three of us)”, “fantastic vegan options” and gluggable cocktails make it a particular “hit with students”. Top Tip – “sri-tato is genuinely wonderful”.

“Authentic Sri Lankan dishes at affordable prices” – the hit formula behind this “lively” street-food outfit with eight branches in the South West; fans can’t get enough of their wacky cocktails and “the food is so good”.

“A good-value array of Sri Lankan small plates” helps make for an “interesting” meal at this Sri Lankan street food operator: part of a south west England mini-chain, which has been in the City of dreaming spires for the last two years.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
