    One of the best Misal I ever had. They got amazing legacy of 100 years. Now their 4rth generation is handling this legacy with perfection. You can see photographs of many celebrities who has tried and loved their misal. Best part is everything is made homemade. They serve sliced bread which was intresting. You can customise the spiciness as per your liking isn’t it best. So do try their misal and I am sure you would love it.

    I ate Bawda misal for the first time...they add "pohyacha chivda" in misal and personally I don't like chiwda in missal....I respect their mix and work....but personally I don't find the misal special .

    I had a wonderful experience at Bawada Misal. The restaurant is one of the oldest and most popular places for misal in Kolhapur, with a legacy of over 100 years. Their service is fast, ambience is simple and clean. The staff was friendly and attentive. The misal was delicious, spicy, with a rich and complex flavor. The bread and mixture were fresh but not crunchy. NOTE:- I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves misal pav, BUT if you like to eat misal with Farsan then avoid this place because they use poha chiwda insted of farsan.

    Seriously this is what you call best misal? I am judging you kolhapurkars. It was really tasteless. When We entered the aroma was so amazing we thought that yes misal is going to me amazing but as soon as we eat the first bite, we started looking at each other and our faces were like why even this place exist. It's a suggestion to hotel owner that please please do visit Pune atleast once. You can have misal at literally any hotel you want no matter how much small it is or big it is, I am pretty sure it will be 10 times better that yours. Please a warning if you are from Pune then do not visit this place you will regret it. Our taste buds are super amazing place find some other place.

    Great service. Must visit. Good taste. 100 years of legacy. Abhijit patil dada greeted us well with good and proper suggestions. When you come to kolhapur must visit once. Do try there special tea and coffee.

    Visited this place after nearly 20 years and still get the same vibes, see those photos of celebrities... and of course, The Taste! Impressed with the service too. Being famous for 100 years and counting, still maintaining the quality and service to match it is something to cherish. All the best to Bawada Misal for many more decades of success and branches across, no just in Maharashtra but at other places such as Bengaluru...

    Ambience is great here. It feels like old home in village area. Superb lighting and all. Service is good. Wall Paintings are great, guves special look to the place. Architectural view of this place is really beautiful. But, taste wise not that good. Specifically misal lovers will not like it. At start, given bhaji was soo thick. And misal was not spicy at all, which kolhapurkars wants specially in misal.

    It was definitely worth a detour that we took to reach this legendary Misal House. Best misal in town, fabulous service. Aslo we were first customers of the day hence the team was generous to offer us a free Misal. 😉

    Nice experience at Bawada Misal. The staff was good and courteous. Abhijeet. The misal was spicy. Use lemon, curd to beat spiciness. Eat less red curry to control spice. Keep bottle and paper napkin handy.The bread slice was good. Solkadi perfect! The place gives good vibes and satisfaction. One thing which I didn't like is toilet smell near entry point.

    Best place to eat authentic Misal in Kolhapur

    This establishment was inaugurated in 1923, probably the oldest Misal eatery in the city. On Friday, it is closed so don't visit on Friday. It opens around 8:30 in the morning. We were the first ones to visit in the morning but we had freshly made hot and tasty misal pav. Also, I'll recommend to have Solkadhi here after misal just to quench your thirst. Quality in incomparable. You can also see collection of photographs of celebrities who had visited the place or had been served the dish in Kolhapur or outside. If you are foodie and love to try new spots, do visit the spot.

    The originality of the popularly known Kolhapuri Misal can be experienced at Bawada Misal. The authenticity is so maintained that it will take you back in time, from the style of serving to the decor of the place. This place is appreciated for its taste not only by ordinary people but also celebrities, cricketers & politicians from around the country. Along with Misal, beverages like tea, coffee, Sol kadi, kokam sherbet at to its flavours.

    Worst, dont know what's wrong with people and celebrities who visit their.. I accidentally visited as I stopped my car and was waiting for someone... They have lots of pics with many celebrities who visited here... People don't have any idea about what taste is....Who mixes chivda, that too tasteless in misal.. Don't they have farsan... Chivda made at home during Diwali is far better... They just give 2 bread piece along with it....Misal made at my home is 100 times better than this... Food that should be served for atmost Rs 30 is served for rs 80 😂 waste of money...

    Too good misal. If you are looking to try some alternative than what is in Pune, visit this place. 100 years old misal pav. Take misal, cut Vada and amazing coffee. Here in kohlapur, bread is served instead of paav. Only thing is that they need to improve on entrance and do some marketing to help in identifying the place

    one of the oldest misal in kolhapur. This place is started in 1923. Which is nearly to celebrate its golden jubilee year. Misal is ok for me not like the one and only place. you find similar kind of misal in kolhapur. You can try this once for different taste.

    Authentic Misalpav, something new compared to the perception of what Pav is in Mumbai...so surprisingly tasty. Get a taste of history here with the misal pav and solkadhi...

  • 4/5 Satyajit R. 3 years ago on Google
    I am eating this Misal since I was 10 years old. The taste hasn't changed a bit. It brought back my childhood memories. Delicious Misal. Must visit. जायला लागतंय.

  • 5/5 Pai S. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best misal pav joint in Kohlapur very tasty and aunthetic misal with reasonable price . This year it seems it's 100 th year . One must try this place with family . The kokum Soul kadi is also good which they serve after misal pav which balances the spicey tango misal pav .

  • 1/5 shrikant a. 2 years ago on Google
    Worst taste. Worst place. Worst ambience. Very disappointed.

  • 5/5 Rocky 7. 2 years ago on Google
    This misal is very grate. Test is amazing ..

  • 2/5 Shikha G. 2 years ago on Google
    It was not that good. Also instead of pav, bread was served. The ambience is also not good.Parcel packing was done in news paper and silver bags.

  • 3/5 Rohan R. 3 years ago on Google
    Not the perfect misal for sure, if you want to try real Misal, then come to Nashik and try Shaam sundar or Sadhana Misal. Those are best misal in entire Maharashtra.

  • 1/5 Vijay K. 2 years ago on Google
    I was big fan of Bawada Misal, But sorry to say in recent years I really doesn't get that Old authentic taste. I recently made my last visit to check if it is improved but alas it's far away from Original.

  • 5/5 M R. 2 years ago on Google
    Very simple and tasty misal. Bread was absolutely freshly baked.

  • 4/5 Pallav C. 2 years ago on Google
    A different taste. Definitely high on spices, but not hot(with chillies). The condiments and the freshly bakes soft pav help bring a balanced flavour for the palate

  • 3/5 JAGJIVAN S. 2 years ago on Google
    99 year old establishment. Seems run by third generation. We had both the available dishes. Misal & Cut Vada. Misal was spicy for our taste. Show many Loyal Regulars. Sol kadhi was great though. Very old furniture. Though the ingredients were too quality; over all cleanliness was missing.

  • 4/5 Sharad K. 1 year ago on Google
    It was the most coveted place to eat authentic misal in the 70's, 80's. I mean 1970, 1980s. Very few people have its originality. Quite a filmstars of that time visited this place. But the Chavan family was a humble one. Didn't file patent kind of thing. I miss the originalty and if anyone comes across its originalty do let me know.

  • 1/5 Chinmay P. 1 year ago on Google
    To be honest i didnt like it. As other reviews say, I would definitely try Misal in Pune. Also there is washroom but couldn't even dare to go over there. It was like a scary secret dungeon. No cleanliness and 🤢 what can i say

  • 5/5 Neha 1 year ago on Google
    Next year this place will be 100 Years old. Visited this place thanks to recommendation from a local, wanted to eat authentic Kolhapuri misal and was not disappointed. The bread that they serve with the misal is super soft and fresh. Also loved the solkadi and one of us had the coffee which had a beautiful aroma.

  • 4/5 AJINKYA P. 5 years ago on Google
    A place in the heart of every Kolhapurian running since decades to serve misal. Dahi Misal the dish for which they are well know about. The taste is good and not too spicy. Well blended coconut over the top seasoning adds a pretty charming flavor making it special from other misals. Ambiance is not the one which should be considered when it comes to Good Misal. Quite old place. Average ambiance and service. One Of The Old Misal Centers In Kolhapur Which You Must Give A Try.

  • 1/5 Nilam P. 1 year ago on Google
    We went here to eat supar famous misal but our experience was not good. Misal was average. Taste was ok. Quantity was very less as compare to rate. Overall experience was not good

  • 5/5 smita p. 1 year ago on Google
    Thank you for giving me wonderful and my all time favourite dish MISAL. First time tried new BAWDA MISAL. It was really tasty and superb coffee And service also good. Taste, ***** coffee, ***** service. *****

  • 1/5 Shailesh K. 1 year ago on Google
    Worst hotel for misal. Bad taste, dirty old ambiance. No actors visited this place, hotel owner took photos with them maybe whenever he got chance. Don't waste your time and money when you are in Kolhapur as lot of other good places are there for Misal.

  • 4/5 Krishnakumar J. 1 year ago on Google
    An oldest outlet 100 years old, of a pure Kolhapuri cuisine called मिसळ. Wellknown for a bollywood hangout in Kolhapur when they used to visit for the shoots a gew decades ago. The photographs therein are its testimony.

  • 2/5 Ajinkya G. 3 years ago on Google
    Visited the place based on an TOI article enlisting 5 famous Misal centers in Kolhapur. Either the misal center has lost its originality or the TOI article was sponsered by these hotels. Misal was cold, and lacked the overall taste. एका शब्दात सांगायचं तर मिळमिळीत . Even the quantity of misal was not enough. They did not provide curry. It's a small place - not what I expected from such a fomous hotel. They dont serve tea but can serve coffee. I did not understand the logic. The only positive thing was the misal was value for money. They charged only Rs. 50 and provided quality and quantity accordingly. बोले तो इत्ते पैसे मे ऐसाईच मिलेगा.

    I visited today “ Bawada Missal” location. It was amazing . It’s very challenging to maintain 100 years same business. And they maintained very small things from vintage day to till time. And missal is very good there serve very different way. And service very good. 👍👍👍👍
