The 10th edition of Swiggy’s annual “How India Swiggy’d” report has revealed the country’s most ordered food items in 2025, highlighting changing consumer preferences in India’s growing food delivery market. According to the report, Biryani, Burger, Pizza, and Dosa emerged as the favorites among millions of users across the country.
Swiggy, India’s leading food delivery platform, analyzed millions of orders placed over the year to compile the insights. Biryani, with its rich flavors and regional variations, continued to dominate the charts, reflecting the enduring love for Indian comfort food. Burgers and Pizzas, representing the fast-food segment, also remained popular, showing how urban consumers increasingly embrace global cuisine alongside traditional dishes. Interestingly, Dosa—a South Indian staple—secured a strong position, underlining the growing demand for healthy yet quick meal options.
The report also highlighted regional trends, noting that orders for certain dishes varied significantly across different states and cities. For instance, while Biryani was a top choice in metropolitan hubs like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru, Dosa saw higher popularity in southern states such as Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. Similarly, Pizza and Burger orders were concentrated in urban centers with a younger demographic.
Swiggy’s report not only reflects popular food choices but also provides insight into the evolving habits of Indian consumers, such as preference for late-night deliveries, family meal combos, and app-based payment convenience. The findings underline the continued growth of the online food delivery market, driven by urbanization, digital adoption, and a rising appetite for diverse cuisines.
With Swiggy continuing to expand its reach and improve user experience, these insights are expected to shape restaurant strategies, menu planning, and promotional campaigns for the coming years, keeping pace with India’s dynamic food culture.
