Greater Noida is one of the educational hubs of Utter Pradesh, India. There are so many colleges all at one place throughout Knowledge Park areas in Greater Noida. With these many colleges and educational institutes, there are a lot of students from all parts of India. Be it from Assam in the East, Tamil Nadu in the South or from Gujrat in the west or from the Jammu and Kashmir in the North or Madhya Pradesh in Central India. There is so much diversity in culture and everything especially the food and Greater Noida has dealt with this problem. It provides a large variety of different types of restaurants, street food, etc.
As a student, we are always on a hunt for cheap, delicious and healthy food. So here are some areas where you can find this kind of food:
1. Gama 1 ( Jagat Farm ):
Gama I is actually very close to Knowledge Parks so it is a very popular choice for food and shopping for the students. In Gama 1 market (also known as Jagat Farm Market) have many places to eat and hang out with friends. Like one cafe named the D’ Wood cafe located on the 2nd floor of GM Mall at almost the center of the market, has awesome food, games, etc.
There is a food market for street food just opposite of it which serves awesome food and beverages.
Going further is the Modi Bakers. It’s cheap and good and also suitable for a good meal with friends. There are also many different restaurants and street food in this area.
2. Alpha 1 (Alpha Commercial):
Alpha Commercial is a good place usually bank related things as there are many banks in this area. With the banks, there are also many restaurants in this area which serves some very delicious food.
One of them is the Taste of Delli which is one of my personal favorites. It offers a wide range of food to choose from and the taste of the food is just amazing. There is a Jammu restaurant nearby it which offers some special dishes form J&K.
3. Alpha 2 :
Alpha 2 market isn’t very popular because it is far inside the main road and it is a bit far from the Knowledge Park area but it is like a hidden gem. This market offers some really good street momos, chole bhature, south Indian food like Dosa, Idly, Wada, etc.
4. Pari Chowk:
Pari Chowk is the entrance of the Greater Noida and daily thousands of people pass through it. It is a T-point with a large circle with many fairies (Pari in Hindi) fountain. There are two malls both opposite to each other. one is at the side of the way coming towards the Greater Noida, and the other opposite.
Both of them offers a really diverse choice of restaurants. One mall has Sagar Retna which is a very famous south Indian Restaurant. The very same mall has Bikanervala which is a very famous North Indian fast food chain.
The Ansal Mall (one of the two malls, the bigger one) have a Mcdonals, KFC, Dosa Plaza, etc and also a movie theater PVR. But one of my favorite places in the mall is a restaurant named Creme Castle.
5. Venice Mall (Greater Noida):
Venice Mall is a very famous mall in Delhi NCR because of its uniqueness. It has a replica of Venice like it has few canals with water in it. there are Gondolas on which one can ride also.
At the food court, there are so many choices of food from different parts of India as well as the world.
So, Here are the Top five places in Greater Noida which are budget-friendly and are suitable for the students in the area.
