Shivas Chats — Restaurant in Bengaluru

An evening would be perfect with a plate of chaats, and what better way to spend it at Shivas Chats in Bengaluru. Although the crowd has decreased ever since the onset of Covid, business has been tough for them but they continue to dish out some yummy food none the less. We had the following dishes while we were at Shivas Chats.

Masala Puri is the highlight of the day. Tangy, spicy, and tasty served piping hot. The masala is nicely blended with crushed puri, fine cut onions, and some spicy chutney.

The Sev Puri was a little off balance in terms of taste as the tamarind chutney was too much in the dish. The dish was very dry as well even though you could taste the masala that was poured on it, overall I would not recommend this dish as it is not the best dish they serve here.

Finally we ended our day here with some Gobi Manchurian. The masala coated on to the cauliflowers was spot on, the use of veggies was very subtle and the taste was perfect. It is indeed a go to dish for a nice evening snack.

The parking maybe a hassle here and the waiting time was not much at all when I had visited them at around eight in the evening. You can find them at Kumaraswamy Temple Rd, near Kaggi`s Bakery, Hanumanthnagar, Banashankari Stage I, Banashankari, Bengaluru, Karnataka 560019.

Shivas Chats – A Legacy of Flavor Returns Home

If you are from Hanumanthnagar, chances are you have grown up with the taste of Shivas Chats. Known for its legendary Masala Puri, Pani Puri and Sev Puri, this street food joint has been a local favorite for over a decade. The puris are crispy and freshly made and the masala has a distinct, spicy punch that keeps regulars coming back.

Originally located beside Kaggis Bakery near Kumaraswamy Temple Road, Shivas Chats had shifted to a more prominent spot on 50 Feet Road. Now, in a nostalgic twist, they’re moving back to their original building - the very place where their journey began 10 years ago. For longtime fans, this feels like a homecoming.

The place is known for its clean setup, quick service and affordable pricing (₹30–₹70 per dish). While seating is limited, the vibe is perfect for an evening snack with friends. Masala Puri and Pani Puri remain the top picks with the masala being spicy, tangy and served piping hot.

Parking & Tips: • Parking for two-wheelers is manageable, but four-wheelers may need to find space in nearby lanes. • Visit during early evenings to avoid the rush. • Ask for extra masala or spice if you love bold flavors!

With its return to roots, Shivas Chats is not just serving food - it’s reviving memories.

A must-visit for anyone craving authentic...

Since I haven't tried much out of their menu I wouldn't say this is my final rating. We just wanted to try an evening chats and got this outlet on Zomato. You could easily figure out this outlet as it's located on 50 Feet Road of Hanumanth Nagar just before Kaggis bakery. And also its crowded on evenings. There are few seats available inside the outlet.

FOOD: We just ordered Masal puri this time, puri used in it was crispier, they use lot of peas which is a little annoying, masale was too good. Over all really satisfying. Meanwhile we were enjoying masal puri, lady on the opposite table bought ghee masal dose, the aroma of ghee was too good. I wanted to try it but since I didn't had time, I compromised with only Masal Puri.

They have a limited menu for chats like Masal puri, Bhel Puri, Paani puri & Dahi Puri. And has bit extended menu for breakfast items.

In my views price is on higher side for the service & quantity they offer.

Will definitely go again to taste their breakfast. Hope it will...
