Popadoms

You'll find Popadoms tucked into Newport's High Street, where it's been quietly doing the business for years without needing to shout about it. This is the kind of place where locals actually come to eat, not Instagram—the kind where the owner knows your order and the kitchen takes pride in getting the spice balance right. Whether you're after a straightforward chicken tikka masala or something with more backbone, you're getting proper Indian restaurant cooking at prices that won't leave your wallet weeping. The room itself is comfortable rather than fancy, which honestly suits the food better.
