Correction (10 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.
This is a short guide, because two Indian restaurants passed our checks: Royale India in Brighton and Shalimar Indian Restaurant in Brighton North. We would rather give you two sourced places than a longer list we cannot stand behind.
Both were checked against two independent sources, including the Australian Good Food Guide (AGFG). We print no menu items or prices for either place, so we describe listing tags and hours, not dishes.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Indian dinner with listed hours | Royale India | 228-230 Bay Street, Brighton |
| BYO Indian with takeaway listed | Shalimar Indian Restaurant | 343 Bay Street, Brighton North |
Royale India — 228-230 Bay Street, Brighton VIC 3186
Royale India is at 228-230 Bay Street in Brighton. AGFG lists it as Child Friendly, with Vegan Options, BYO, Takeaway, Live Music and Alfresco Dining. Those are listing tags, not our verdicts. Its own site lists 4pm - 11pm on every day except Tuesday, which it shows as Closed.
On the menu: We print no dishes or prices for Royale India here, and AGFG lists Vegan Options as a tag.
Shalimar Indian Restaurant — 343 Bay Street, Brighton North VIC 3186
Shalimar is at 343 Bay Street, in Brighton North. AGFG lists it as Child Friendly, BYO, Takeaway and Alfresco Dining, again as listing tags. OpenStreetMap and AGFG agree on the address, but its own site looks older, so confirm the details before you go. We have not printed its hours.
Start with: A phone call to confirm it is trading and when, since this page prints no hours or menu for it.

How we checked
We checked every place on this page against at least two independent sources on 9 October 2026: the places’ own websites, the Australian Good Food Guide, OpenStreetMap and shalimar.com.au. We copied no menu prices from these places’ own pages, so this page prints none. Menus, prices and opening hours change, so check with the venue before you go.
