But first, let's talk about Indian food. Dewsbury has a large South Asian community and that's reflected in the quality of its curry houses. From skillfully adapted old pubs like Grameen in Grange Moor, to town centre tandooris like Heckmondwike's Spice Cottage, the Indian restaurants in Dewsbury vary considerably in their atmosphere and style. But one thing which binds them together is their commitment to quality food. Some places mix up Bangladeshi and Indian cuisine with super-spicy options like palong motar that will test anyone's palate. Some of them focus on baltis, while others are maestros with a tandoori grill creating incredible kebabs.

However, Indian food is far from the only standout on Dewsbury's restaurants scene. Mexican food has also made an appearance thanks to Savile Town's Muchachos, where diners can gorge on spicy burgers, massive nacho bowls, grilled meat dishes and cheese-laden enchiladas. Great British cuisine is coming back thanks to places like Mulberrys, where classic steaks, hotpots, salads and seafood dishes are ready to order. And Dewsbury's Italian restaurants are just as appealing, allowing you to fill up on pizza or healthy Mediterranean meals.
