About Us
The Bengal - A Lichfield Icon Since 1968
The Bengal is one of Lichfield's longeststanding Indian restaurants, known for its rich tradition, authentic flavours, and warm hospitality. For over five decades, we've served generations of locals and visitors alike - including some very famous faces.
Rock legend Ozzy Osbourne was a regular at The Bengal in the early days, and it's even said that his band changed their name to Black Sabbath over a curry right here in our restaurant.
From timeless tandoori dishes to fragrant biryanis and flavour-packed curries, The Bengal continues to serve the same trusted recipes that made us a local favourite.
Whether you're here for a casual meal or to experience a piece of Lichfield history, you're always welcome at The Bengal.
