About Burns Road
Looking for the best restaurants on Burns Road? Karachi's most famous food street has kept the same specialities for decades. Savoury classics include Waheed Kabab House, serving dhaga and butter-fry kabab since 1961, Cafe Lazeez for katakat on the tawa, Agha Sajji & BBQ Corner for fire-roasted sajji, and Babu Bhai Kay Bun Kabab for chana daal bun kabab fried live on the tawa.
Burns Road is a dessert destination too. Delhi Rabri House began on a Burns Road pushcart, Dilshad Kulfi House has served matka kulfi and falooda in clay pots since 1969, and Pakistani Dilbahar Dahi Baray sells dahi baray from a big clay matka. For breakfast, Fresco Sweets has served halwa puri, aarbi paratha and jalebi since 1952, and for haleem there are Karachi Haleem and Mazaidar Haleem & Foods, both of which also sell haleem in tins.
Most items cost PKR 300 to 1,200 per head, and the grills stay open late, so Burns Road works well for an after-dinner dessert run. See all late-night restaurants in Karachi or dessert and bakery spots in Karachi.
