The Clay Oven Indian & Bangladeshi Takeaway in Shepway

Being from a family that has curries pretty frequently, we were blown away when we found a takeaway that is able to produce authentic Indian food consistently.The food tastes delicious and always arrives very promptly. The staff have always been helpful both when ordering on the phone and when picking up a collection order.Cannot recommend them enough!

Fresh Delicous Hot Food. 🔥 Best I've had in a long time. Smelt and tastes amazing. Really friendly helpfull workers.

The Clay Oven was recommended by a friend. Food was really delicious. We really enjoyed our meal. Definitely order there again.

Our last two orders have been wrong - rice missing one week, then a plain nan and paratha when we'd ordered (and paid for) them stuffed.The food is usually very good, but it does vary.

We regularly have a Indian takeaway. We either use The Clay Oven or Prince of India. Last night we had a awful experience with The Clay Oven.We ordered as soon as they opened 5.30. I was a little surprised when told it would be an hour. In fact it was over an hour and a half at ten past 7, I did phone and ask at 6.45 only we had a family zoom meeting planned at 7.30. I was told "we got busy" by that I think they meant they had "Just Eat" orders and put the regulars on hold.When it did turn up there was a item missing and the food to be honest wasn't their normal standard. When I told them I was told we will give you a refund for the item missing.It disappoints me we were treated like this as we have used them since they opened and the owners live on our close so we are neighbours.We're not sure if we will go back. Mainly due to their attitude, not once did they say "Sorry"Has anyone else found their standards slipping?

The best Indian I've had since moving to Folkestone from Ashford. Friendly staff. Nice and clean inside. Food full of flavour nice size portions. When you visit to collect or place your order you can see the food being freshly cooked in the kitchen. This is the 2nd Indian that I've come across where you can see the food being cooked. The 1st one was in Ashford

One of the worst take away ever I had in my life never ever had experience this bad service from anywhere else my food damaged food was missing call the restaurant spoke to Maneger/owner he was sooooo RUDE he didn’t even the driver admit that the food was damaged and missing my advice is just to avoid it and also all his food had to go in BIN. They need to get trained and then come to work.

Nice to be able to see the kitchen just the other side of the counter. I had vegetable dupiaza. Sadly quite watery and bland. Chicken tikka massala was OK. Not brilliant but not the worst. The red sauce was spot on though As was peshwari naan.

Worst food I've ever ordered. Cold rice with lots of unidentifiable black slimy bits in it and millions of seeds. The chicken tikka masalas sauce was nice that's the one star. The meat was hard dry and tasted revolting I suspect its old. And the garlic nan was half cooked with raw garlic puree spread all over it. Really disappointed

Most greasy food I have ever had delivered...im still clearing up the grease that lept out of the bag on delivery not even edible!!
