Circular Road in Amritsar and the Green Avenue area offer a handy mix of cafes, dhabas and sit-down restaurants. If you want to eat well without crossing the whole city, this neighbourhood guide helps you plan. It covers what is nearby, how to choose between the options and how to organise an easy evening out.
This guide draws on public restaurant listings, so please check current hours and prices before you go. Details can change.

Both names appear in the address of The Machhiwala by Makhan Fish Co.: 310-A, Circular Rd, Green Avenue, Amritsar 143001. That is the best starting point for a map search. Type the full address into your maps app instead of a landmark, because Amritsar has several roads with similar names.

How Do You Choose Between the Options?
The right place depends on what you want from the evening. Ask yourself four questions:
- How hungry are you? A cafe suits a light bite, while a restaurant suits a full dinner.
- What is your budget? Compare the cost for two before you decide.
- Do you want seafood? If so, look for a kitchen that makes it a specialty.
- How big is your group? Larger groups should book ahead.
If fish is your priority, start with this guide to Amritsari fish so you know what to order.
What Does a Simple Evening Plan Look Like?
You do not need a complicated itinerary. A relaxed plan might run like this:
- Start with a coffee or a bakery treat at a cafe.
- Move to a sit-down restaurant for dinner.
- Finish with dessert somewhere nearby.
Because The Machhiwala is a cafe, restaurant and bar in one room, you can also do the first two steps in a single place. The cafe, restaurant and bar guide shows how the room changes across the day.
What Makes The Machhiwala Different on Circular Road?
The Machhiwala focuses on seafood, and Amritsari machhi is its signature dish. It also serves a full multi-cuisine menu with vegetarian dishes, so mixed groups can eat together. Private dining and banquet rooms are available for larger celebrations. Read the About page for the story behind the recipe, or look at fish tikka in Amritsar if you prefer a grilled starter.
