Bindia Lyngby

Delicious and healthy takeaway on Lyngby Hovedgade

In what is probably the busiest shopping area north of Copenhagen, you will find one of our smaller takeaway locations, which has served takeaway to local residents and the many shoppers since 2012.

When we took over the premises from an optician, a full renovation was needed first, but today it is a small and funky takeaway and dine-in location at Lyngby Hovedgade 72E. Inside there is room for around 6 guests, who can wait for their takeaway or eat one of our dishes, such as our popular Butter Chicken or one of our vegetarian and vegan dishes. Take a look inside Bindia in Lyngby here.

It is during the summer months, however, that Bindia in Lyngby and the rest of Lyngby Hovedgade really come into their own. We place tables and chairs in front of the shop on the street’s wide cobbled pavement, right next to a large and beautiful flower shop. With plenty of room for seated guests, passers-by, and the street’s many green trees, Lyngby Hovedgade is perfect for both outdoor seating and quick, easy takeaway for busy shoppers.

From Bindia in Lyngby, we deliver to the following nearby areas:

Nothing wasted

Whether you are one of the many busy shoppers or want to slow down and enjoy the area with our takeaway in hand, you are always welcome at Bindia on Lyngby Hovedgade 72E.

We serve generous, healthy portions that are also well suited to being refrigerated and reheated. Read our recommendation for how best to reheat our takeaway here.

The traditional methods of the Indian kitchen, which we proudly carry forward at Bindia, give the food a natural and sustainable shelf life and help you reduce food waste together with us.

A real Indian curry takes time to make, because it needs to simmer throughout the day. The very last part of the cooking is done only after we receive your order, and we never use more than what you get.

At Bindia, we actually have so little food waste that the food-waste movement Too Good To Go found it unnecessary to include us on their app and platform, despite a signed cooperation agreement.

From royal road to shopping street

Lyngby Hovedgade, which in 1888 became the first street in Denmark with electric lighting, is a street full of both life and Danish history.

Originally, the street was part of the large historic Kongevej from 1584, which ran from Copenhagen to Frederiksborg Castle. You can still see that history today in the way Lyngby Hovedgade changes name to Kongevejen by Sorgenfri Palace.

Curious visitors can find several historic and listed buildings on and around Lyngby Hovedgade, including the two old watermills Nordre Mølle and Søndre Mølle, which together made up Lyngby Mølle and are most likely even older than Kongevejen.

Today the street is used in a completely different way, and you especially see many shopping pedestrians around the many small shops in the street. This is because a local plan from 1982 aimed to protect the part of Lyngby Hovedgade where Bindia is located for small retailers, and therefore prohibited larger industry, banks, and offices, among other things. The street’s cosy and distinctive look came from the extensive cobbling carried out between 1996 and 1998.

Today, much of North Zealand meets here to shop for big and small things in one of the street’s many small specialist shops, or in Magasin and Lyngby Storcenter just around the corner on Klampenborgvej.

Bindia’s takeaway and dine-in fits perfectly on Lyngby Hovedgade, a historic and distinctive shopping street that invites you to slow down and enjoy our good food.

More sustainable takeaway

Since 2015, we have held the Organic Cuisine Label, because we were the first Indian kitchen in Scandinavia to focus on organic ingredients and sustainability. We also cook without preservatives, additives, colourings, or deep frying.

We are committed to becoming even greener, and in 2020 we decided to make our packaging more environmentally friendly. Our carrier bags, menus, and takeaway bowls are now made from 100% recycled, unbleached paper. Bags and menus can be sorted as paper, though we recommend reusing the bag as much as possible first. Bowls and their lids should be sorted as ordinary household waste.

That means you can enjoy some of the country’s best Indian takeaway with a clear conscience.

Takeaway in Lyngby

If you would rather enjoy our good Indian food somewhere other than the cosy, but sometimes busy, shopping street, there are fortunately plenty of places nearby where you can enjoy both nature and Bindia’s good takeaway.

If you continue south along Lyngby Hovedgade to where it changes name to Lyngbyvejen, you will find Mariebjerg Cemetery. This beautiful cemetery, designed by architect G.N. Brandt, became part of the Danish Culture Canon in 2005 together with 107 other works considered essential to Danish cultural heritage. There is plenty of space and quiet here to enjoy nature and architecture and find a pleasant place to enjoy our takeaway.

If you want even more nature, walk north along Lyngby Hovedgade and you will soon reach the large and beautiful Lyngby Lake, where you will find many scenic places to enjoy your takeaway, such as Lyngby Folkepark not far from Lyngby Hovedgade.

During the summer months you can also sail with Baadfarten on Lyngby Lake and up along Mølleåen, which runs for about 30 km through Furesø, Farum Lake, and Lyngby Lake before finally ending in Øresund. This important stream is also what originally made the growth of mills and later industry possible in the area, including the two watermills Nordre Mølle and Søndre Mølle by Lyngby Hovedgade.

A trip with Baadfarten has been possible since the 1890s, and their beautiful, characteristic boats are still used on the route. You are actually allowed to enjoy our delicious takeaway on this beautiful trip.
