Bangla Spice in Stornoway has floated the idea of shipping their curries to Tarbert by road to supply takeaway-hungry customers in Harris.

The Indian-Bengali restaurant on Church Street has come up with a novel inter-island takeaway service after receiving repeated requests to open a restaurant in Tarbert. However, they feel opening a bricks and mortar outlet in Harris is not possible.

As an alternative, Bangla Spice is weighing up the feasibility of transporting orders from Stornoway to Tarbert for collection at a pick-up point. However, they will need a minimum volume of orders each week to make the delivery idea work.

The restaurant is using its Facebook page to gauge demand and the frequency of deliveries.
