Fareedi’s Food: Bringing Turkish and Middle Eastern Street Flavours to Pune’s MG Road
Reported by Shoaib Tadvi & Radhika Sharma
Pune, 1st October 2026: Pune’s Camp area has long been known for its diverse food culture, and tucked into the busy stretch of Mahatma Gandhi Road is Fareedi’s Food, a casual dining spot serving Turkish and Middle Eastern-inspired street food.
Located at Amba Commercial Complex on MG Road, the eatery has built its menu around shawarmas, burgers, loaded fries and other fast-food options, with Turkish and Syrian-style preparations forming a major part of its identity.
One of the highlights on the menu is the Turkish Chicken Shawarma, prepared with tender chicken and Turkish-style seasoning. Unlike many Indian-style shawarmas that rely heavily on spicy sauces, Fareedi’s focuses on a comparatively milder flavour profile, allowing the meat and seasoning to remain prominent.
For those looking for something more substantial, the Giant Syrian Shawarma is another option. The large wrap combines succulent chicken with fresh accompaniments, making it suited for diners looking for a filling street-food meal.
The menu also ventures beyond the traditional chicken shawarma. The Prawns Shawarma brings grilled prawns together with vegetables and a creamy signature sauce, offering a seafood variation for those wanting to try something different.
Another popular-style option is the Loaded Fries with Chicken, where crispy fries are topped with chicken, cheese and sauces. The combination puts a fast-food spin on the Middle Eastern-inspired menu.
Fareedi’s also serves Open Chicken Shawarma, presented on a plate with accompaniments such as hummus and pita or khubz. This format offers a different way to enjoy shawarma flavours without having everything wrapped together.
The restaurant’s menu extends into burgers, pizzas, biryani and desserts, giving it a broader fast-food offering alongside its Turkish and Middle Eastern specialities.
Located near Hush Puppies and the Spykar showroom on MG Road, Fareedi’s Food is positioned in one of Pune Camp’s busiest commercial and shopping stretches. Its location makes it accessible for shoppers, office-goers and food enthusiasts exploring the area.
With shawarmas reportedly starting at around ₹110 and meals for two generally falling around the ₹400 range, the outlet caters to diners looking for a relatively affordable casual meal.
For Pune’s evolving food scene, places such as Fareedi’s Food reflect the growing interest in international street-food flavours while adapting them to the city’s casual dining culture. Its focus on Turkish and Middle Eastern-style shawarmas gives diners in Camp another option beyond the area’s more familiar Indian and fast-food offerings.
Fareedi’s Food is located at Shop No. 21/22, 341, Amba Commercial Complex, Mahatma Gandhi Road, Camp, Pune – 411001. The outlet can be contacted at 9356935953.
