Namkeens are the most common items in an Indian household. Stocked in fancy boxes, making special appearances when guests or relatives swing by, these titbits come in various flavours. Also, the taste differs as you travel from one Indian city to another.
And just like all other items, there’s a lot of branded stuff out there even when it comes to our favourite namkeens, however, nothing beats the taste of handmade goodness from the local halwais! One such shop that has stood the test of time, with over 100 varieties of namkeens in Lucknow, is Nanhe Namkeen Bhandar. Serving all our favourites like- namakpaare, mathri, namkeen, children’s favourite Anarse ki Goli, and a variety of Indian sweets too, the legendary Nanhe Namkeen Bahndar and Sweet shop is a common household name in Lucknow.

As you step inside the shop, you’ll be greeted with a whiff of nostalgia. The smell of hing (asafoetida) will instantly enliven your mood, and the sight of the traditional glass jars filled to the brim with namkeens, will make you want to pack some for each member of your family.
