Royal Bengal recently celebrated its
30th year since opening its doors at
Bridge Street in Northampton, making it the town's longest
established Indian restaurant. The Royal Bengal has stood the test
of time by catering for customers and their families over three
decades. In a fiercely competitive market, the family-run restaurant
has adapted to 30 years of changes, yet is always welcoming new
customers to try its traditional Indian food.
The Royal Bengal was started by Abdul Rohim in1975 at 38 Bridge Street. His
 son, Mohammed Ahmin, who now
runs the business with him, said "At number 38 there were only about
40 seats and a counter. We just outgrew the premises. So in 1983 we
moved across the road and have been there ever since. It is twice as
big with 100 seats and a bar where 30 people can have a drink before
their meal, or a coffee afterwards"
Mr.
Rohim is still the chef at The Royal Bengal where he has built up a
reputation across the county for creating genuine, fresh and
traditional Indian food. Over the years, the family has expanded its
catering talent and are co-owners of the four pillars restaurant,
which has branches in Olney and Fosters Booth, as well as a
restaurant in Coventry.
The secret of The Royal Bengal's
success? Mr. Ahmin said; "In Northamptonshire, our strategy has been
to move forward with the times, while at the same time keeping to
what we know. At the Royal Bengal we have a traditional menu and
surroundings and that has worked successfully for 30 years"
