A Bangladeshi grocery. A Bengali myself ( coming from Kolkata, India) was excited to find many niche products, which is difficult to find in usual Indian groceries. However, did not find anything significant- other than various fishes, meat, and frozen food to try. I got some Bengali style sweets ( gurer Sandesh) and they were really good. You can find some fresh vegetables too. However, it’s worth visiting only for good quality meat and typical Bengali fresh water fishes. Don’t expect any great shopping experience, as their space is small and crammed, and quite smelly ( I guess coming from large amount of meat business)!

I was in mood of cooking some "Hilsa" (a type of freshwater fish common in the Indian subcontinent). I was pretty excited after reading all the reviews, and decided to give this place a try. Long story short; the fish was of lowest quality, it disintegrated in the gravy while cooking, and had a sub-par taste. Had to throw away most of the batch. Annoyingly bad fish.

Apart from the low quality, the shopkeeper shortchanged five ounces of fish, by selling lower than promised quantity. I got the fish weighed during checkout and pointed this out to the cashier, but didn't want to create a scene so let it slide. There were other customers behind me. I paid 25 bucks for less than 2 pounds, not worth it!

Make sure that you weigh whatever you buy here, and do not take the words of the seller for granted. Also ensure that the quality of meat is good. I do not recommend this place, period.

Bangla bazar is such a welcoming place, the owner and his wife are so kind. They have amazing service, everyone is so friendly. The meat is fresh, and they cut it just like how you want it!!
I’ve been going to Bangla bazar since 2007 and it’s definitely one of the best Bengali places to shop at.

Doing groceries in Bangla Bazaar is always a great experience. They are very polite and tales care of the customers. Prices are very reasonable. And their chicken is tender and tasty. In a word, I always feel good shopping there.Highly recommended.
