Firefighters have contained a structural fire at the Tangled Vine Cafe in Taralga.

Crews were able to remove roof sheeting to access and extinguish the blaze, NSW Rural Fire Service operational officer for the Southern Tablelands, Lachlan Gilchrist, said.

The fire started in the cafe's deep fryer and spread to the roof, which put the neighbouring buildings at risk of catching alight, Mr Gilchrist said.
