Super duper place!
We visited this place after someone's recommendation and it was amazing.
We tried Girmit, Tuppad Avalakki, masala butter toast, masala khara and Jolada vada. I loved Tuppad Avalakki very much, which I felt is the version of Dadpe Pohe with Ghee, and shev on top. Absolutely recommend, must try 👍🏻
It is more than seven decades old canteen in Dharwad. Crowded most of the time. Famous for its unique dishes.
I Enjoyed eating Ghee avalakki, Chilli bonda, Girmit, Masale mandakki and Bread toast.
Food is tasty and reasonably priced, Tables are clean, Staff are good. Good place to enjoy light snacks with family and friends.
Enjoyed Thuppada Avalakki and Jowar Vada. Missed Mandakki/Girmit which they serve only in the evening.
I’m from Bangalore and am in Dharwad for a break. Had breakfast from LEA canteen and had a fabulous experience. The place has a “heritage” feel to it. It is small-ish, but cosy and very neat. The service was nice, the guy had a sense of humor even. Had idli vada and avalakki, both were very good. Most tables were occupied and filled with locals - watching them was an experience in itself. An old man was having coffee off the saucer, for instance. By all means, a wonderful place to have breakfast from.
This place is extremely crowded
Have tried tuppad avalakki
Which is light and tangi
Vada is Highly recommended
They give it with a variety of chutney and curd which is extremely tasty
Won't suggest mirchi
Good place for evening snacks
one of the best canteen i have been so far. we tryed ghee poha, mirchi bajji , poori baaji, jowar poori, garlic mixture, bred tost, all are excellent. must go for any food lover .once u try their food u I'll know why they have such a good rating on Google.

- Accessible easily as it is behind the district court . To be precise it is attached to the compound of the RLS Compound and located Near Corporation Circle, Maratha Colony.
- Very reasonable quick snack and lunch place is L.E.A Canteen. 4 people can easily have stomach full snacks for 250/- rupees.
- Tuppad Avalakki ( Avalakki soaked and mixed with ghee and jaggery) is a must try thing when you are in L.E.A Canteen . The service is quick and I am sure you will not be happy with just 1 . So be ready to order 2 nos. :-)
- One another dish that you must try here is Jolada Vade ( Jowar Vada ) . They are served hot and fuffy. So one must give it a try and you will feel satisfied to the core. You will enjoy the vada when you eat with the red chatni and the curd that are served. You will feel a great sense of satisfaction once you have it. If you are visiting here on a 2 wheeler then the parking may be easy. But you will find a little challenging to park the 4 wheelers.
Overall a must visit place if you are wanting to explore eateries in Dharwad. 3 cheers for maintaining their authenticity and hygiene.
This is a 70+ years old eatery. This offers breakfast and snacks.
This has an old school charm to it. They even have a family section in the hotel which used to be very common in the 80s and 90s.
My personal favourite was tuppada avalakki. It has a tinge of tanginess from the lemon, and sweetness from the sugar and definitely the crunch factor comes from the sev that they top this dish with while serving.
They even serve onion pakoda, bread toast, idli vada,dosas, poori sabji, uppit and sheera to name a few in the morning for breakfast. Bread toast has a unique chutney pudi topping and is served with loads of buffalo butter.
Even though everything we tried was yummy, I personally felt that it was a tad bit on the higher pricing scale.
ತುಪ್ಪದ ಅವಲಕ್ಕಿ, puri, dosa, bread toast were delicious. Clean surroundings, wonderful service and super quick. Loved morning breakfast here!
