Correction (11 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 9 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
Four places to eat in Belgrave, and AGFG lists every one of them as Child Friendly. That is a listing feature, not a guarantee, so treat it as the starting point of your checklist.
For each place you get the address, the hours a named source prints where we have them, and the other AGFG features. This page prints nothing on high chairs, parking, shade or toilets, so ring ahead for those.
Only Cognoscenti has menu prices here, copied from its own menu page. The pack list for each place is at the end of its section.

Belgrave Fish & Chips — 1654 Burwood Highway, Belgrave VIC 3160
AGFG lists Belgrave Fish & Chips as Child Friendly and Takeaway. Its own online-ordering site lists 12pm to 8:15pm on every day of the week. The OpenStreetMap tag differs, listing Tuesday to Sunday, 11:00 to 20:30, so confirm the day you plan to go.
Pack: AGFG lists takeaway, so ask about it when you call, and check the hours on the day, since its site and OpenStreetMap differ.
Earthly Pleasures — 1627 Burwood Highway, Belgrave VIC 3160
AGFG lists Earthly Pleasures as Child Friendly, Takeaway and Alfresco Dining. Its site lists “OPEN FROM 8.30AM TO 4.00PM WEDNESDAY TO SUNDAY”. The OpenStreetMap tag lists Tuesday to Sunday, 08:30 to 15:00, and its details may have changed, so confirm before you go.
Pram check: This page prints nothing on pram access or high chairs at Earthly Pleasures, so ring ahead and ask.
Babaji’s Kitchen — 1644 Burwood Highway, Belgrave VIC 3160
AGFG lists Babaji’s Kitchen as Child Friendly, Pet Friendly, Takeaway and Alfresco Dining. Its own site says outside dog friendly dining is available and gives the address as 1/1644 Burwood Hwy. We have not printed its hours, so check them with the restaurant.
Pram check: Ask about step-free entry and seating when you book, because this page prints nothing on access for Babaji’s Kitchen.
Cognoscenti — 1628A Burwood Highway, Belgrave VIC 3160
AGFG lists Cognoscenti as Child Friendly. Its site lists Monday to Saturday 5pm to late and Sunday 11:30am to 2:30pm and 5pm to late, so it is an evening plan on most days. Its menu prints Chips at $14 and Flatbread at $10.
