Review: Poppin Papadums is a hidden gem in Camp Hill. I hadn’t had Indian in ages so was looking forward to trying this local restaurant. We were greeted by Jimmy, the owner who was lovely and helped with recommendations. We started with some papadums and mango chutney which was a really good combo. We tried to save them for when the mains came out, but they were too morish and we ended up eating them all. We couldn’t decide which naan to get so ended up getting two different ones. My favourite was defs the cheese and spinach which was soft, fresh and loaded with cheese. This went perfectly with the tender meat and dipped in the curry sauce. Jimmy recommended we try the Saagwala which was tasty with a creamy spinach flavour and little kick of spice. The lamb was tender and complimented the flavours but there could’ve been a bit more meat in the dish. It was hard for us to go past the classic butter chicken and this one didn’t disappoint. It was rich, savory, and sweet. The butter and cream add richness, while the spices gave it more of a traditional curry flavour. Again, some more meat would have been good. It was also my first time trying the Chicken Jalfrezi which was a fragrant chicken stir fry. I liked the spices used and the generous portion of chicken, this also went great with the naan and dipped in curry sauce. To finish we tried their pistachio ice cream which came out cut into pieces. The presentation was nice, and I liked the pistachios mixed throughout. It was more icy then creamy which could be how it is normally done? Not sure though as it was my firs time. All in all, food was great, staff were lovely and attentive, and the food came out quick. Would defs recommend if you are in the area or looking for some...

Small little Indian restaurant/ takeaway but great food. We had the Tahli (Special on Mondays and Wednesday’s which means plate in Indian apparently.) My wife had the vegetarian and I had the chicken and it was excellent, light, with several dishes all packed with exotic flavours - so we can definitely recommend this special. Not really a place with an atmosphere- more of a takeaway but good friendly service and its BYO so just up the road is a BWS that we snagged along a bottle of good Rose which always goes well with a curry. Marks out of 10… 9 for me and 8 from my wife. Just needs a bit more atmosphere and lower lighting and a few candles (hot tip guys - check out IKEA for HYGGE and you’ll attract more customers… food is important but equally so is ambiance and it doesn’t take much to create a nice one👌✅…. You’ll reap the rewards if...
