Kanha Sweets — Restaurant in Punjab

If you're in Amritsar and craving authentic Punjabi breakfast, Kanha Sweets is a must-visit for their delicious Puri Chana. This classic combo is a staple in Punjabi cuisine, and Kanha Sweets does it justice with their flavorful preparation.

Taste & Quality The puris are perfectly puffed, golden, and crispy, yet light enough that you can enjoy multiple without feeling overly heavy. The chana (chickpea curry) is the star—rich, mildly spiced, and cooked to perfection with a balanced blend of onions, tomatoes, and aromatic spices. The gravy has just the right consistency—neither too thick nor too watery—making it ideal for dipping the puris.

Serving & Portion The portion size is generous, ensuring you leave satisfied. It’s typically served with a side of tangy pickle and fresh onions, which add a nice crunch and contrast to the dish. Some days, they also include a sweet boondi ladoo or jalebi as a complimentary treat, which is a delightful touch.

Hygiene & Ambience Kanha Sweets maintains decent hygiene standards, and the staff is quick and efficient. The place is usually bustling, especially in the mornings, which speaks to its popularity among locals.

Price The pricing is reasonable for the quality and quantity offered, making it a great value-for-money breakfast or...

The best of the best Poori chole in India. I think no one can beat Kanha Sweets when it turns about delicious Poori chole. The shop is good having nice ambience and seating arrangements, the staff is also very well trained and polite. They sell so many traditional punjabi sweets but their poori chole in breakfast are to do for. Your Amritsar trip will be incomplete if you don't try their Poori chole once during your visit.

The pooris are made in pure desi ghee, along with poori they give very tasty chole and a potato curry which they called Launj ki sabzi. This launj ki sabzi is the cherry on cake which adds a punchy taste of tamarind in overall dish. They also gives chopped onions with pickle as accompaniment. The one thing which is their specialty along with poori chole is their Alphonso Mango Lassi and if you are traveling in Amritsar in winters then their Gur ka Halwa is a must try sweet.

The price of poori chole plate is 80/- rs and Gur ka Halwa priced 500/- KG. So next time when you go to Amritsar visit this place and try their...

Kanha Sweets was our brunch spot, if I may. With lots of people, lots of kids, we started the day pretty late. Add to that stopping to buy shoes for the child because his big toe was pushing the shoe walls a bit much and it was high time to get his shoe sized up.

Once we got there, it was a quick meal. The breakfast platter, I’m not sure if it’s their all day platter as well, came with chole and aalu ki sabzi. One bite of it with fried pooris and I realized it was more like aalu ki launji – sweet and sour dish, usually done with raw mangoes, but the taste was on point. It’s the nigella seeds that bring out that peculiar flavour.

The star of this meal is more the pooris, fried to perfection in ghee. Pair that with the chole and this aalu ki launji, and you won’t stop eating. At least I had a tough time stopping, but again, that’s not news! :p

And while this was a complete meal for me, because we were a group of eaters, we did order a few mango lassis to go with it.
