Clippers was an a-ok Indian restaurant. The food was decent, as others reviewers have said, but there’s definitely better Indian food to be had a drive away in Edinburgh city. I can never resist the creamy, sweet lure of a korma but Clippers’ was by no means among the best. The same with the naan. I’ve had garlic naans just oozing with delicious fresh garlic but, again, Clippers’ offering was just an a-okay in the flavours department. For me, the service was lacking because there was a certain pushiness about it all; pushing us for the buffet option, the persistence of ‘another?’ when it came to drinks; it was just a little much. The waiter even asked me, ‘some rosé?’ His attempt at person-drink matching was ultimately flawed. — Firstly, I’m a g & t girl and, secondly, I just wasn’t in the mood for alcohol. It’s daft to presume that everyone is. So, an a-okay by all means. Three stars for Clippers.

You know what, I felt like we were sold a bum steer by a Penicuikian, that this place was amazing. While it certainly is a long way from bad, it didn’t come close to the scale of amazingness. In fairness, perhaps it’s better if you dine in, whereas we were grabbing a takeaway during a house move. Hungry yes, but felt a little underwhelmed with what we received. A little bit spicier than I would have liked which didn’t help my overall enjoyment. If it was the only offering in town, then maybe it would do, but I think there are better.

I wouldn’t say this is the best Indian restaurant that l have been to, but certainly not the worst, we came by on a Sunday where there is a Sunday buffet for under £9.00 per head, good value but authentic tasting definitely not, the food has been definitely adapted for the westerners. The dining area looks like an 80’s theme, needs upgrading, or lick of paint, I got lost in the rest rooms and ended up in the dry stores(what the h*ll was someone thinking of putting a dry store in the toilets) as there was three doors to choose from l got the wrong door. There is only a small selection of draught beers available but the ones we got where not cold and they where flat. On the outside, the signage says that they won awards in this curry house but the newest award was over 10 years ago, they are giving themselves bad advertising by doing this.

Best Curry house in Penicuik. Really enjoy the chicken Tikka. They also do delivery which is nice, little bit pricey but its doable. I hear the Sunday lunch buffet is quite good never tried it though. If your staying in Penicuik I recommend this place!

The quality of this family run restaurant is astounding. I think it’s the best Indian restaurant and take out in the Edinburgh area. The food is bursting with flavour and so beautifully made. The staff are really friendly and it’s obvious the restaurant us a family affair. The food us great value for money and they deliver. The restaurant is beautiful and cost and on the main bus route to Edinburgh. The restaurant is famous in penicuik and they even been known to take school trips to try Indian food. I would recommend it to anyone !

This is a fantastic Indian restaurant. The service is excellent and the food is superb. We had an amazing starter — a Mushroom Puri which had a real kick to it! Then we had a Lamb Biryani, Sag Gosht, Tarka Dal and Garlic Nan bread. You wont find better Indian food than this anywhere else! Why have to travel into Edinburgh when you can have an amazing meal right on your doorstep? I would thoroughly recommend this restaurant if you are ever in Penicuik, Midlothian.
