Our Story

Part of Crowborough since 1982

We've been serving the people of Crowborough for over 40 years. What started as a small family restaurant has grown into a local favourite — but we've never lost that personal touch.

Our spices are blended fresh every single day using recipes passed down through generations. No shortcuts, no ready-made pastes. Just proper Indian cooking, the way it should be.

Heritage

A family affair

Founded by our late father, A. Jabbar, Rose of Bengal has been proudly serving Crowborough for over 40 years.

Today, brothers Siraj, Fayjul, and Eman run the restaurant, while our brilliant Head Chef Romjan crafts the authentic, traditional recipes you know and love.

From our family to yours, thank you for dining with us. We hope you enjoy your meal, where our father's spirit lives on in every dish.

I've been going to the Rose for about 30 years and having tried all the local restaurants, this is by far the best. Good food, very welcoming, accommodating and very friendly. Always made to feel welcome and nothing is a problem should you have dietary requirements. A fantastic restaurant and staff.

Fantastic food in a great atmosphere restaurant. Probably the best Indian meal I have had ever. The Hyderabadi Lamb shank was so so good and highly recommended. Went well with a creamy Sag Paneer, pilau rice, chipati and papadoms.

The quality of the food is excellent and the service is very good. We have switched our allegiance to this Indian restaurant. We've been quite a few times with friends, who have said that it's one of the best meals they've ever had.
