Mumbai remains the undisputed leader in Pav Bhaji consumption, with thousands of vendors serving the dish around the clock.
Maharashtra is the top consumer of Pav Bhaji, with cities like Pune and Nagpur.
Pune’s youthful population, large student base, and vibrant street food scene have made it a hotspot for this delectable dish.

The dish's increasing appeal across regions like Delhi, Gujarat, and Uttar Pradesh speaks to its versatility and the growing fusion of regional flavors.
