Gurgaon isn’t just about sleek cafes and rooftop bars, beneath the high-rises and corporate buzz lies a world of authentic street food gems that locals swear by. From melt-in-your-mouth dhoklas to buttery Punjabi kulchas, these places are where comfort meets flavor.
If you’re looking to ditch the fancy restaurants and experience Gurgaon’s real food soul, here are some of the best-hidden street food spots you shouldn’t miss.
1. The Dhokla House, Sector 52
Tucked away in Sector 52, The Dhokla House is one of those places you discover once and never forget. Run by a warm Gujarati family, this tiny outlet is all about authenticity and love poured into every bite.
Their dhoklas are soft, perfectly spongy, and have just the right amount of tang. Pair that with their srikhand, thepla, or khandvi, and you’ve got yourself a mini trip to Ahmedabad right in Gurgaon.
The best part? It’s healthy, hygienic, and served with genuine warmth. They also have an outlet in Sector 56 HUDA Market & Sec 64, keeping their loyal fanbase well-fed across town.
📍 Location: Sector 52, Sector 56, Sector 64 Gurgaon
⭐ Must-try: Khaman Dhokla, Khandvi, and Srikhand
2. Amritsari Kulcha Stuffing, Civil Lines Road
If there’s one place that can transport you straight to the bustling streets of Amritsar, it’s Amritsari Kulcha Stuffing. Located right on Civil Lines Road, this spot is famous for its perfectly flaky kulchas, crispy on the outside, pillowy soft inside, and loaded with flavor-packed stuffing.
They serve them piping hot, straight off the tandoor, with a generous dollop of butter, tangy chole, and chutney that ties it all together. It’s indulgent, soulful, and everything you’d expect from good old North Indian comfort food.

3. Civil Lines Wala
This place has been around long enough to become a name everyone in old Gurgaon knows. Civil Lines Wala is especially popular for its chole bhature: light, fresh bhature and chole.
It’s said that Virat Kohli used to come here when he was younger, which regulars like to mention. The outlet is clean, and even with the daily crowd, they manage things well. Just keep an eye out for fake look-alike shops in the same area. It would be amiss not to mention this place in a list featuring the best street food gems in Gurgaon.
Parking is fairly easy since there’s space right opposite the shop.

4. Sri Nath Pav Bhaji, Sector 56
Sector 56 has plenty of food stalls, but Sri Nath Pav Bhaji still stands out for doing the basics right. The bhaji is flavourful without being too heavy, and the pav is toasted with butter just enough to give it that crunch.
It’s a place people visit regularly not because it’s hyped, but because the pav bhaji is consistently good.

5. Krishna Kulfi, Sector 56
Krishna Kulfi is one of those steady old favourites in the Sector 56 HUDA Market. They’ve been around for years and continue to serve the kind of kulfi that people keep going back for. It is simple, creamy, and not overly sweet.
Their malai kulfi is the highlight, and the falooda makes for a nice, no-frills dessert after a meal in the area. It’s a straightforward place that focuses on doing the basics right, and that consistency is what keeps them busy every evening.

6. Idli and Chill, Sector 52
This is a fairly new South Indian stall inside the newly set-up street food lane in Ardee City, and it has already picked up a steady flow of regulars. Idli and Chill keeps things uncomplicated, delicious flavours, warm service, and prices that make it easy to visit often.
They serve their dishes with two chutneys and a flavourful sambhar that has just the right balance. The masala dosa deserves a special mention; the masala inside tastes fresh, light, and not oily. It’s a good option if you’re looking for dependable South Indian food without spending too much.
The area itself has a amazing vibe, which makes the whole experience even nicer.
