The relationship between the UK and Indian food is long and storied, and few would contest the idea that the neighbourhood curry house is Britain’s favourite place to eat out. The good people of the West Country enjoy a spicetacular night out as much as anyone, and in Somerset, they can head down to Yeovil’s Middle Street for their fill of authentic Indian and Bangladeshi dishes at Viceroy, a restaurant with a reputation for big flavours, fresh ingredients and unpretentious surroundings.

The strength of an Indian restaurant lies in their curries, and at Viceroy on Middle Street in Yeovil, they can justly claim to serve up some of the best in Somerset. Their classics selection includes all that one would expect to see – including the famed Phall, the hottest curry usually available – and their specials include outstanding unique Bangladeshi and North Indian dishes such as xakuti, cooked in a coconut sauce, and khatta khargosh, rabbit in onion and garlic with plenty of chillies.
