Since 1953, standing tall in the shade of an aralimara (peepal tree) – Aralimara Panipuri, a small chaat shop has been serving delicious fare of Karnataka-style chaats such as pani puri, masala puri, Dahi puri, aloo puri, bhel and sev puri.
Easily one of the oldest chaat places in Bengaluru – Aralimara pani puri is a road-side fare, drawing patrons with the aroma of the masala gravy and clanking of the ceramic plates (nostalgic memories of eating a chaat).
But it’s claim to fame has been “consistent” great taste, hygiene, customisation of the spice/flavour as per individual taste and fast service.

What to eat?
While everything they offer is delicious- my personal favourites are the masala puri, pani puri and aloo puri.
