5 Best Spots To Enjoy Chaat In Delhi NCR

Delhi is the undisputed capital of street food in India, and its chaat is legendary—a perfect explosion of tangy, sweet, spicy, and crunchy flavours.

5 Best Chaat Spots in Delhi NCR

The best spots often specialise in one or two signature items. Here are 5 iconic and must-visit chaat destinations, spanning from the historic lanes of Old Delhi to the more modern corners of the city.

1. Natraj Dahi Bhalla Corner

Operating since 1940, this small, perpetually crowded stall famously serves only two items, and they have mastered both. Their Dahi Bhalla—soft, melt-in-your-mouth lentil dumplings soaked in creamy yoghurt and topped with sweet and tangy chutneys—is considered the gold standard in the city.
