Either u can manually delete folders or using this command

rm -rf var/cache/ generated/code pub/static/frontend pub/static/adminhtml

After that you need to run these commands again , else the css/styles in magento frot-end and back-end won't load

php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
sudo chmod -R 777 var/ pub/ generated/

After remove folder, need to run setup:upgrade! why ? – Pawan Feb 28 at 4:15 — Pawan, Feb 28 at 4:15

So Are you want to remove cache files ? If yes than remove these folders:

/var/cache

/var/page_cache

Simply remove this folders.

You need to remove these directories

<magento_root>/var/cache/* 
<magento_root>/var/page_cache/* 
<magento_root>/generated/metadata/* 
<magento_root>/generated/code/*
