Pahalwan Lassi

Legendary Banaras rabri lassi shop, now on the Lanka-Assi road after relocating.

Pahalwan Lassi is a roughly 75-year Banaras lassi icon, famous for thick rabri wali lassi served in kulhads. The original Lanka-Ravidas stall was cleared in a 2025 road-widening drive, and the shop has reopened on the Lanka-to-Assi road near HDFC Bank in Katra. Confirm the current corner when you go; the recipe and queues remain the draw.
