Address, phone, timing, landmarks, how to reach and an honest review summary for each. Ratings checked in September 2026.
Kesnand, Wagholi The main and first branch
★ 4.3 (1,546)- This is the original branch, where the brand started
- Regulars say the taste here is clearly better than the franchise outlets
- Original misal around Rs 90
- Matki bhel and lassi are the other orders
- Kesnand Phata, right there
- Wagholi, about 5 km
- Pune Nagar Road, close by
- From Wagholi: about 10 minutes
- From Kharadi: about 25 minutes
- Free parking, though limited. Outdoor seating has a dust problem
The best rated Jogeshwari in Pune. Several reviewers who have tried many branches say only this one has the original taste. Service and pricing get good marks. No air conditioning.
Dhayari DSK Vishwa Road
★ 4.2 (1,965)- Seating under a mango tree, one of the nicer settings
- Good parking, rare for a misal shop
- Open till 9:30 PM, so evening misal works
- Curd comes with it if the spice is too much
- DSK Vishwa, right there
- Nanded City, about 3 km
- Sinhagad Road, about 4 km
- From Sinhagad Road: about 10 minutes
- From Warje: about 15 minutes
- Proper parking space available
One of the best rated branches. Red, hot and balanced is how reviewers describe it. Buttermilk gets repeated praise. A few find it too spicy. No coffee on the menu, which some people miss.
Hirabaug Tilak Road, city centre
★ 4.1 (1,452)- The most central branch, easiest to reach in the city
- Open till 10 PM, the latest of all
- Order the Jogeshwari Special Misal Thali
- Solkadhi and taak are both good here
- Hirabaug Chowk, right there
- Tilak Road and Laxmi Road, close by
- Swargate, about 1 km
- Sarasbaug, about 1 km
- From Swargate: about 5 minutes
- From Deccan: about 10 minutes
- Street parking only, two wheeler easier
Food gets strong praise, service does not. Reviewers repeatedly say the staff is slow and unresponsive. The room also gets stuffy when full, so take an outdoor table if one is free.
Manjri Shelwadi side
★ 4.0 (1,784)- Special Misal thali at around Rs 130 with gulab jamun, chaas and water
- Open till 10 PM
- Good option on the east side of Pune
- Manjri Budruk, right there
- Hadapsar, about 6 km
- Solapur Road, close by
- From Hadapsar: about 15 minutes
- From Magarpatta: about 20 minutes
- Parking available
The special thali gets good feedback for value. The sample is spicy and the extra gravy is oily. Several reviewers report cleanliness issues including flies and, in one case, a stone in the food. Only fans, so it gets hot in summer.
Donje Sinhagad Road, on the fort route
★ 4.0 (1,197)- The stop if you are heading to Sinhagad Fort
- Ample parking and outdoor seating
- Popular with cyclists doing the Sinhagad climb
- Mango lassi is worth ordering
- Sinhagad Fort road, on the way
- Khadakwasla Dam, about 5 km
- Donje Gaon, right there
- From Sinhagad Road: about 20 minutes
- From Warje: about 25 minutes
- Ample parking, easiest of all branches
Clean and well managed with good seating. Reviewers going to Sinhagad rate it well. Some long time customers say the taste has dropped compared to earlier, and there are complaints about slow service and small dahi portions.
Bavdhan Dr. Homi Bhabha Road
★ 4.0 (423)- Rarely crowded, you usually get a table
- Parking for both two and four wheelers
- Sev misal style with traditional whole spices, less farsan
- Extra onion, mirchi and tarri given on request
- NDA Campus, close by
- Bavdhan main road, right there
- Chandni Chowk, about 3 km
- From Kothrud: about 15 minutes
- From Baner: about 10 minutes
- Good parking, four wheeler works on weekdays
Quiet branch with courteous staff and clean washrooms, which reviewers mention specifically. The misal follows the original recipe with tejpatta and dalchini and less Gujarati farsan. Slightly overpriced according to some. Parcel portions are smaller than dine in.
Narhe
★ 3.8 (531)Flavour of the gravy gets praise but ambience is basic and recent reviews report the quality slipping. Staff behaviour is the common complaint, especially when asking for extra tarri or pav.
Hadapsar Gaon
★ 3.6 (388)Matki bhel is the strong point here. The complaints are serious though: stale pav on the first serve, extra charges for sharing a special plate, no free refills of farsan, and rude staff.
Karvenagar, Warje
★ 3.2 (875)The lowest rated Jogeshwari in Pune. The misal itself is rated as decent and spicy, but review after review describes rude staff and an unpleasant experience. Several mention warning posters about extra charges all over the walls.
Vithalwadi, Nagar Highway
★ 4.0 (672)A highway pit stop near Wagholi. Misal, matki bhel and tea all get decent reviews and service is called quick. A few say only shev is added to the rassa for Rs 90, and the seating gets hot in summer.
Which branch should you pick
| Original taste | Kesnand, Wagholi |
| In the city | Hirabaug, Tilak Road |
| Late night misal | Hirabaug or Bavdhan, both till 10 PM |
| Coming by car | Dhayari, Donje or Bavdhan |
| Going to Sinhagad Fort | Donje |
| Nice setting | Dhayari, seating under a mango tree |
| Avoid | Karvenagar and Hadapsar Gaon, on service complaints |
Good and not so good
What works
- The only brand open till 10 PM
- 10 outlets, one is usually near you
- No weekly off anywhere
- Matki bhel is genuinely good
- Better parking than city misal shops
Keep in mind
- Quality changes branch to branch
- Staff behaviour is the top complaint
- Extra charges for sharing at some branches
- Parcel portions smaller than dine in
- Cleanliness issues at a few outlets
Should you go
Go if you need misal after 6 PM, because almost every other famous shop in Pune is shut by then. Also go if you want matki bhel, which most misal shops do not serve well.
Just pick the right branch. Kesnand, Dhayari, Hirabaug and Bavdhan are the safe ones. If you want a morning misal instead, Katakirr or Aaba Misalwale are more consistent.
