The Grand Sweets and Snacks (Tamil: தி கிராண்ட் ஸ்வீட்ஸ் எண்ட் ஸ்நாக்ஸ்) is a sweet shop and eatery chain based in the city of Chennai, India. It is famous for its sweet dish called Akkaravadasal which is distributed free-of-cost as prasadam to customers.[1][2][3][4]

In 2010, the shop was partitioned into two businesses, following a family settlement.[5] More branches were subsequently opened throughout Chennai.[6]
