The best Ghevar in Jaipur

Also spelt Ghewar, Malai Ghevar, Rabri Ghevar and Mawa Ghevar. A curated shortlist, shaped by your votes.

Editorial picks

Selected from published food guides and local reporting. How the list works

  1. Number 1.Laxmi Mishthan Bhandar (LMB)

    Open
    7am to 11pm, seven days a week
    Where
    Shop 98-99, Johari Bazar Road, Bapu Bazar, Biseswarji, Jaipur 302003

    Ask at the mithai counter for the paneer ghevar, which LMB claims as its own, or the mawa-topped disc. Weekend crowds are heavy and you pay at a token window first, so join the correct queue.

  2. Number 2.Bombay Mishthan Bhandar (BMB)

    Open
    Roughly 8am to 11pm daily
    Where
    Outside Sanganeri Gate, MI Road end of Johari Bazar, Jaipur 302004

    Rabri ghevar, and eat it standing while it is still warm from the kadhai. Mornings belong to the puri sabzi breakfast crowd, so the counter is at its worst between eight and ten.

  3. Number 3.Sambhar Fini Wala

    Open
    About 8am to 9pm daily
    Where
    Shop 25-27, Ghee Walon ka Rasta, Johari Bazar, Jaipur 302003

    Rabri ghevar is the order, cut fresh from the tray at the counter. The shop is in a narrow lane with nowhere to stand about, and stock thins through Sawan afternoons, so come in the morning.

  4. Rawat Mishthan Bhandar (Station Road)

    Open
    7am to 10pm daily
    Where
    Hotel Neelam, B-9, Station Road, opposite Polo Victory Cinema, Lalpura Colony, Sindhi Camp, Jaipur 302001

    Order the rabri ghevar at the sweet counter, not the kachori queue, which is a different scrum entirely. Station Road is the branch people mean; expect to eat standing with your box balanced somewhere.

  5. Sodhani Sweets

    Open
    7.30am to 9.30pm daily
    Where
    SB-108, Tonk Road, opposite Nagar Nigam, Bapu Nagar, Jaipur 302015

    Malai ghevar, and the volume they shift means it is rarely sitting around. This is the flagship opposite Nagar Nigam, so around Teej and Rakhi the queue reaches the pavement and parking disappears.

  6. Brijwasi Sweet House

    Open
    8.30am to 8.30pm daily
    Where
    Shop 184, Ghee Walon ka Rasta, Johari Bazar, Jaipur 302003

    Go for the coin ghevar, the bite-sized format this shop is credited with starting. It shuts around half eight in the evening and the shopfront is easy to walk past in Ghee Walon ka Rasta.

  7. Kesar Sweets

    Open
    7am to 11pm daily
    Where
    K-44, Surya Mahal Tower, Income Tax Colony, Lal Bahadur Nagar, Durgapura, Jaipur 302018

    Saffron malai ghevar is what people drive down Tonk Road for. The green pistachio one appears only around Hariyali Teej, so do not plan a trip around it; otherwise the counter runs late.

  8. Ras by Gyanjee

    Open
    10am to 10pm daily
    Where
    C-22/2, Bhagwan Das Road, Panch Batti, C-Scheme, Jaipur 302001

    Two-inch mini ghevars in Biscoff, coffee or mango, boxed for gifting, are what this counter does differently. It does not open until ten, and you pay a clear premium over the bazaar shops.

  9. Jaipur Quality Sweets (JQS)

    Open
    9am to 9.30pm daily
    Where
    The Grand Anukampa, U-1/S-1, Ajmer Road, Shyam Nagar, Jaipur 302019

    Coin ghevar in kesariya rabri, plus the ghevar tarts, are the two things to pick up. The counter hides inside the Grand Anukampa building, so tell the driver the hotel rather than the shop.

  10. Bhagat Mishthan Bhandar

    Open
    8.30am to 8.30pm daily
    Where
    Plot 2, opposite Akashvani, MI Road, Jaipur 302001

    One of the few places keeping ghevar on the shelf outside Sawan, including the fika version you sweeten at home. Parking opposite Akashvani is awkward and the shutters come down by half eight.

  11. Bajrang Mishthan Bhandar

    Open
    About 7am to 11pm; mini ghevar sold all year
    Where
    1339, Khatri House Road, Chandpole Bazar, Jaipur 302001

    The mini ghevar with its mawa layer is why people cross town for this counter, going since 1968. It is a small shopfront on Khatri House Road, no seating, and worth carrying cash for.

  12. Gangaur Sweets

    Open
    8am to 9pm daily
    Where
    J-32, Subhash Marg, near Bagadia Bhawan, C-Scheme, Jaipur 302001

    A C-Scheme neighbourhood counter where the plain rabri ghevar holds up year after year. Buy the ghevar and leave the rest of the tray alone; it is shut by nine and there is nowhere to sit.

  13. Poddar Mishthan Bhandar

    Open
    9am to 9.15pm daily
    Where
    Shop 1245-46, Gopalji ka Rasta, Johari Bazar, Jaipur 302003

    Their desi ghee ghevar is the reason to turn off Johari Bazar into Gopalji ka Rasta. Nothing opens before nine here, and the lane is narrow enough that you should walk rather than drive in.
