Agra is synonymous with the Taj Mahal, but for those who look more closely, the city offers a culinary heritage as rich as its Mughal history. While the white marble beauty attracts millions, it is the sizzling street food stalls that keep travellers coming back for more.
Planning an Agra Trip By Car gives you the unique advantage of exploring these hidden culinary pockets that tourists on tight bus schedules often miss. From the spicy chaat of Sadar Bazaar to the legendary sweets of the old city, here is what you must eat when you visit Agra.
The Flavour Profile of Agra
1. Agra’s Bhalla (Aloo Tikki)
Unlike the thin patties found elsewhere, Agra’s “Bhalla” is a giant, crispy potato galette. It is slow-cooked on a large tawa until the exterior is crunchy, then smashed and topped with spicy ginger, chickpeas, and a mix of sweet and tangy chutneys.
- Top Spot: Agra Chat House in Sadar Bazaar.
2. Mughlai Paranthas
Reflecting its royal past, Agra’s Mughlai paranthas are rich, flaky, and often stuffed with minced meat or spiced vegetables. They are pan-fried to perfection and served with a spicy gravy.
- Top Spot: The lanes around Jama Masjid.
3. Paneer Tikka and Soya Chaap
As the sun sets, the street food scene in Agra transforms. You will find vendors grilling marinated paneer and soya chaap over open charcoal fires, serving them with rumali roti and mint chutney.
