Quick info
About KANDY Authentic Sri Lankan Restaurant
KANDY Authentic Sri Lankan Restaurant is a Sri Lankan restaurant on Mill Street in Macclesfield, set in a space that includes a private dining room at the back for groups. The kitchen covers a wide menu built around Sri Lankan staples, with kottu listed alongside a range of other dishes, and vegan options available for those who want them. Orders can be placed to suit a sit-down meal in the main room, with the team running service and talking guests through the cuisine when asked. Payment and booking operate on a walk-in basis, so visitors can drop in without a reservation. The private room offers a quieter setting for larger parties who want the menu away from the main floor.

“Just nasty. Rude staff. Bad location. Overpriced for what it offers. And the toilets were smelly”
- Stephen Hirst
“Wow! This as a gem hidden in plain sight. Just had a wonderful meal here last night: delicious food, beautifully presented, generous portions, excellent service, with plenty of vegan dishes. I had passed Kandy lots of times, but now we will be calling in more often!”

“Absolutely wonderful restaurant. The design of the place is lovely and unique. The staff member who served us was lovely and very informative of a cuisine that was unfamiliar and the food....oh the food. Delicious! Full of flavours, well presented and the portion sizes are just right. Highly recommended”
