What Phil E likes about Bengal Bar Restaurant:
Went for a meal with my partner, my sister and her hubby. Food was outstanding; I had the king prawn byriani. Service was excellent and the price was very good. I shall return many times! View all feedback. What Paul1960 4 doesn't like about Bengal Bar Restaurant:
I didn’t think it was possible for Indian food to be so lacking in taste. Had a prawn puri ? to start, and a chicken madras, with mushroom rice for main course. I reckon if I’d been blindfolded, I’d have struggled to tell the difference between the prawns and the chicken. All very wet. Not good enough. View all feedback.

Nestled on Lampits Hill, The Bengal offers a diverse Indian dining experience that has garnered mixed reviews. Diners praise the flavorful starters like Shemi Kebab and satisfying mains such as Murgh Melai and Pistachio Chicken. While some have enjoyed their meals, others have faced inconsistency, with dishes lacking the expected spice and flavor. The restaurant’s service is generally seen as prompt despite occasional hiccups due to staffing. Competitive pricing and a bustling takeaway service complement the relaxed dining atmosphere. Overall, for those seeking a mix of flavors and a cozy setting, The Bengal remains worth a visit.
