About Popadom Express

Popadom Express is a restaurant on Main St in Sheffield, open evenings daily on a walk-in basis. The kitchen runs a set meal for two, priced at £21, alongside a la carte options that regularly include chicken and lamb tikka starters, onion bhaji, and a pickle tray to start. Curries such as chicken bhuna, meat rogan josh, and pathia appear often on orders, with the Lamb Tikka Balti as another regular choice. A chicken tikka sandwich is also a recurring pick for those wanting something simpler. Alongside dining in, the restaurant offers takeaway and delivery, making it an option for those eating off site. No booking is needed, as the restaurant takes walk-ins throughout its evening service.

Customer Review Summary

Tikka dishes come up most, from a chicken tikka sandwich and a lamb tikka balti described as perfectly spiced and to die for, to chicken and lamb tikka starters. Close behind are the curries, with a pathia in chicken and tikka chicken versions, rogan josh and chicken bhuna all named, and one request for extra garlic and coriander honoured. Several reviewers call the food great value with generous portions, and a few say it has improved lately, one returning after years away and ordering three times to be sure. Others describe curries arriving piping hot and orders turning up on time, and some mention caring, kind staff. The complaints concern delivery and consistency. One reviewer's set meal for two was delayed while it waited for a driver, then arrived cold with the extra chips missing. Another received two curries that tasted nothing like their usual order, including a chicken dish.

    “Not used this place for many years because it went down hill however gave it another try and was mega impressed - we’ve had it 3 times to make sure it wasn’t a one off and each time has been fab, the £21 meal for 2 is great value and definitely would recommend the Pathia - we had both the chicken and tikka chicken last night and it was amazing a request for extra garlic and corriander was adhered too and appreciated. Keep it up as it’s nice to stay local 😊”

    “We have lived at Swallownest for almost 25 years. Poppadom express has always been our go to takeaway and had always been spot on. I'm not sure if recently it has new owners, a new chef or both but it is even better than ever! The food is amazing and fantastic value!”

    “Ordered a set meal for 2 with extra chips and a pickle tray at 7.30pm. We were told it would be up to 1.5 hours as they were busy. At 9.15pm I rang to chase our order and was told it was ready and they were waiting for a driver! Our order finally arrived at 10.10pm and there were no chips and the food was cold!! Will not be ordering from here again !!!”
