“Had dinner here with friends on Saturday night. We all had different starters and main courses and each dish was perfectly cooked and very very tasty. Great ambience as always and staff all lovely and attentive.”

Welcome to Cafe Tabou
Welcome to Café Tabou — and welcome to us.
We are a small team with big hearts, and we’d love to share a little of who we are and what makes our brasserie special to us.
Café Tabou has long been a beloved French brasserie in the heart of Perth’s historic centre. It’s a place where people come to celebrate, reconnect, slow down, and savour moments that matter. Over the years, it has become more than just a restaurant — it has become part of the community, a place filled with laughter, familiar faces, and stories shared over good food and good wine.
Today, Café Tabou is cared for by Kasia and Wojciech Majkowski, a husband-and-wife team who have spent nearly a decade helping shape the warm, welcoming atmosphere that Café Tabou is known for. Their passion blends the richness of French flavours with the friendly, genuine spirit of Scottish hospitality — creating a brasserie that feels both elegant and wonderfully inviting.
In the kitchen, you’ll find Head Chef Neil Ireland, whose creativity and love for French cuisine inspire every dish on the menu. Neil brings a thoughtful balance of classic French technique and modern touches, celebrating seasonal ingredients and crafting dishes that bring comfort, excitement, and beauty to the table.
Together, we work as a family.
And when you dine with us, we hope you feel like part of that family too.
