Jamun Restaurant is an Indian dining room at 14 West Street in central Brighton, a short walk from the seafront and Brighton Pier. Opened in late 2023, it brings together regional Indian cooking, street food and a relaxed contemporary setting for dinner throughout the week and longer weekend visits.
The menu moves from chaat and tandoor dishes to curries with distinct regional character. Samosa chaat, aloo tikki and chilli paneer offer lively vegetarian starts, while chicken tikka, lamb seekh kebab and spiced fried fish provide a broader range of flavours from the grill and kitchen.
Main dishes include the restaurant’s Brighton butter chicken, garlic scented dhaba curries, saag with chicken or lamb and Rajasthani laal maas. Vegetable choices are treated as a substantial part of the menu, with lentil dal, Punjabi chickpeas, mixed vegetable curry and tofu with fenugreek and peas among the options.
Biryani, basmati rice, naan and other breads make it easy to compose a shared meal, with gulab jamun and halwa available for dessert. Vegan and vegetarian dishes are clearly represented, but guests with allergies should consult the current menu and speak with staff because dairy, nuts, gluten and shared preparation are relevant across many recipes.
Address: 14 West Street, Brighton BN1 2RE, England
