Bengaluru tops Swiggy’s list for highest vegetarian orders, showcasing a growing trend in the city’s culinary preferences.

Food delivery platform Swiggy has revealed the city with the highest number of vegetarian orders in India, and it’s not Ayodhya or Ahmedabad. According to Swiggy’s order analysis, one out of every three vegetarian orders in India comes from Bengaluru. This revelation came as part of Swiggy’s announcement of the Green Dot Awards, which spotlight the best vegetarian food-selling restaurants across the country.

Bengaluru, often dubbed the Silicon Valley of India, has now earned the nickname Veggie Valley. The most-ordered vegetarian dishes in the city include Masala Dosa, Paneer Biryani, and Paneer Butter Masala. Masala Dosa, a nationwide favorite, is a popular choice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In Mumbai, which has the second-highest number of vegetarian orders, Dal Khichdi, Margherita Pizza, and Pav Bhaji are the top choices. Hyderabad rounds out the top three with Masala Dosa and Idli being the most popular dishes.

Swiggy’s analysis also found that breakfast is the golden hour for vegetarians, with over 90% of breakfast orders being plant-based. Popular breakfast items across India include Masala Dosa, Vada, Idli, and Pongal. Overall, Margherita Pizza emerged as the most popular snack in India, followed by Samosa and Pav Bhaji. Additionally, there has been a significant shift towards healthier eating, with over 60,000 vegetarian salad orders being placed each week.

To celebrate the variety of vegetarian dishes available, Swiggy has launched the Green Dot Awards. These awards honor popular vegetarian-serving restaurants in more than 80 cities across India. With over 9,000 brands nominated and 60+ categories, including Pure Veg Brands, Cakes & Desserts, Veg Pizza, Veg Burger, Paneer Dishes, Veg Biryani and Dal Makhani, the Green Dot Awards aim to celebrate the growing preference for vegetarian culinary delights nationwide.
