Poppadoms Indian Takeaway

Poppadoms — listed in several directories under the combined Azaad Tandoori-Poppadoms badge — trades from the small shopping corner at The Hawthorns in the eastern fringe of Whitfield, where the late-1990s rebuild of the scheme meets the housing along Whitfield Crescent and the Drumgeith Road. The shop runs a mainline Indian and Pakistani takeaway menu — full curry range, tandoori starters, biryanis, kormas through to vindaloos — alongside pizza, kebabs and the kind of multi-board operation common in the east-Dundee schemes. The kitchen runs evenings only through to around quarter past eleven and offers no-minimum-order delivery, which is unusual and helps keep the lower-ticket Whitfield trade running through the slower nights of the week. The catchment is overwhelmingly local — Whitfield, the Lothian and Aberlady housing, the Hawthorns and Drumgeith — competing with Desi Tandoori a few streets away on Aberlady Crescent and the Cheviot Crescent cluster a longer hop down into Fintry. Online ordering runs alongside Just Eat and Uber Eats.
