Unable to take pics in kitchen but if your going to have It visible to customers maybe take the food off the floor?? Staff were lazy Slow and bored Placed my order being told if I collect in cash I would receive 10% off and a free side dish, both were refused when I bought this up Half an hour promised wait turned into an hour Food wasn't worth the wait Vegetarian options: Only upside was vast vegetarian menu

The food is terrible, watery, little flavour. I've tried it a few times and it's always the same. I don't know how they have so many 4/5 star reviews.

Delicious food! Eaten from Pipasa for years and always spot on. They’re able to meet our vegan dietary needs without hassle! Love to support local. Thank you Pipasa.

I'm sorry to say this as I know how hard it is working in catering, but it was not very good at all and tasted like a shop bought curry. Sorry, but I wouldn't recommend right now.

The chicken tikka masala was extremely sweet, I found. I’m not sure if that’s how it’s meant to be, but it was very overwhelming. The naan bread was a bit chewy. But other than that, I did enjoy the meal. Just wish the curry wasn’t so sweet!
