Indescribable Eatery ; Best places to get some mouth watering 'Kachoris' in Delhi
1. FATEH KI KACHORI
Location : Raj Niwas Marg, Opposite Gujarati Samaj School, Kashmiri Gate, New Delhi
Fateh Ki Kachori needs no introduction. It is by far one of the most iconic street food vendors in Delhi-NCR. Selling Kachori-Chhole since five decades, Fateh Ki Kachori is the classic variant of Kachori. Boiled Chhole is mixed with salt and masalas, and then places on top of the Kachori. Which is then garnished with chopped onions, green chillies and amchoor chutney. They begin selling Kachoris at 10.30 am everyday and the lot is finished by 2-3 pm (except Sundays). Do not miss this shop if you happen to be near-around Kashmer Gate, North Delhi.
2. JUNG BAHADUR KACHORI WALA

Jung Bahadur Kachori Wala serves the best, mouth watering Kachori with Aloo Sabzi. Topped with tangy chutney, coriander and green chillies, Kachoris are super-crisp and truly flavourful. The Kachoris are so delicious that just one helping won’t suffice. The pricing is really economical too, a full plate for Rs 35 and half plate for Rs 20.
3. CP KACHORI WALA

Relatively unknown to many, Kachoriwala outside Hanuman Mandir in Baba Kharak Singh Marg, CP is a fabulous joint for mouth-watering Kachoris. Known as CP Kachori Wala outside the Pracheen Hanuman Mandir serves scrumptious Kachoris with delicious Aloo Sabzi. Kachori lovers swarm this place for their crispy, golden brown Kachoris. Just as one can expect, Kachoris are stuffed with flavourful mix of dal, potatoes and masalas. The fluffy and crisp Kachoris tastes amazingly delicious with the spicy Aloo Sabzi.

No matter when you arrive you can get whatever you desire. They serve Bedmi Poori, Aloo Subzi, Kachori, Samosa, Bread Pakoda, Chole Bhature and Jalebi. The Kachori Subzi here is something you should try. Kachoris are crisp and Subzi is super delicious. Go for the mini Kachoris. Those taste more delicious than the larger ones. Don’t forget to ask for Pickles and green Chillies.
5. NEW VISHAL CORNER
Location : G-4, Vishal Building 95, Nehru Place, New Delhi
Visiting Nehru Place, try New Vishal Corner. Located amidst a vast sea of electronics shops, New Vishal Corner churns out one of the best Kachoris in the locality. Thei Kachoris are khasta (crispy) and Aloo Sabji is mildly-spicy. Nothing exceptional, but satisfactory. Apart from Kachoris they also sell Samosa, Pakodas and Rajma Rice.
6. KAMALA SWEETS
Location : K/1-101, Chittaranjan Park, New Delhi
Visit Kamala Sweets for some delicious Kolkata-style Kachoris. Popular for its traditional Bengal Sweets, Kamala Sweets churns outs some mind-blowing Bengali Kachoris. The Bengali Matar Kachori or Motor-Shutir Kochuri is a fabulous rendition of the classic Kachori. Unlike others, Matar (Peas) are an important ingredient and imparts a distinct flavour and taste to the Kachoris. This fried puffed bread, stuffed with slightly sweet peas stuffing and a pinch of Hing is really delicious. Do try out.
7. GOPAL SWEETS CORNER
Location : Shop No. 43 Block A, Kamla Nagar, New Delhi
Kamla Nagar Market is house to Gopal Sweet Corner, one of the many affordable street food joints in the locality. Gopal Snack Corner is quite popular among students of Delhi University for their Kachoris. Serving for ages, the Kachrois are served with a spicy Aloo Chole Sabzi, topped with curd chutney. Gopal Sweets Corner’s crunchy Kachoris are really delicious and one of the best in North Campus.
8. KADIMI SWEETS
Location : 38, Central Road, Jangpura, New Delhi
Legendary is one word for this place. Memories are associated with this small yet magnanimous shop in the middle of Bhogal market. They serve a wide variety of sweets and delicacies but my favorite is by far the Jalebi and Chola Bhatura. The savoury items are aptly priced but the sweets can be called a bit on the higher side. Their Kachoris along with Doda Barfi, Ras Malai and Gulab Jamuns are absolutely divine.
9. SHARMA KACHORIWALA.
Location : NP 160, Mangal Bazaar (Near Gopal Mandir), Pitampura
This small, yet well-known kachori shop is perpetually crowded and known for its mouth-watering kachoris in Pitampura. The kachoris are fried until they are perfectly crunchy and are served with gravy. The kachoris here will be the best Rs 20 you’ve ever spent in your life! When here, do try their Dal Kachoris guys - they are amazing.
10. GHANTA GHAR
Location : Ghanta Ghar, Old Sabzi Market.
No, not all kachoris have to be overly heavy on your tummy, Ghanta Ghar in old sabzi mandi serves a much healthier kachori variant you guys! The sabzi here is full of hing and other digestive ingredients, and hence it’s pretty good for health, unlike the kachoris you find everywhere else. So make your way to this gem of a place and devour guilt-free!
