Bengal Delight in Coventry serves Indian and Bangladeshi cuisine, with a dinner menu spanning traditional curries, biryanis, tandoori dishes and chef’s specials. Located on Holbrook Lane, the restaurant has a softly lit dining room with comfortable black padded seating and booths suited to cosy dates or small family meals. Crisp white tablecloths give the tables a smart finish, with floral arrangements and maroon napkins adding colour. Glass globe pendant lights hang overhead, greenery adorns the windowsills and coloured lighting casts a gentle glow in the evening.
