Daytime Options for Invergordon Restaurants and Takeaways
Invergordon Restaurants and Takeaways
Rashos Cafe
Rashos is a small cafe located on the High Street of Invergordon. It’s very popular with locals and visitors alike. It’s one of my favourite places when I want something that is good value.
Rashos can get quite busy and they do a great deal of takeaway orders, so sometimes there can be a wait for your food as it is all freshly cooked. If this might be an issue for you just ask how long the wait might be before you order.
My nephew loves the kebab here. I like the pizzas. A friend of mine loves the chicken and bacon carbonara. Rashos does breakfasts, soup, sandwiches and full meals. They also have baking including traybakes along with lattes, and cappuccinos.
If you want to try a Scottish drink then why not try Irn Bru? It’s available here.
Rashos opens at 11 am every day apart from Wednesday (during summer months it’s open every day)
