Review Girish Chandra Dey & Nakur Chandra Nandy - Kolkata (Calcutta)

Absolute legend in North Kolkata offering sweetmeats since 1844 specialising in "sandesh" only. Bit overpriced, a very retro look with iron grills separating the patrons from truly entering and having any kind of interaction. Customer service needs to be improved compared to century old legendary Bengali sweet shops in Kolkata. They have traditional as well fusion sweets. I am more of a traditional misti person than its fusion counterparts . They have butterscotch, strawberry, blueberry, mango, chocolate, kiwi, green apple, orange to name a few modern fusions. From traditional sweets one can have Malai Roll, Sorer Singara, Mohini, Jolbhora. In winter they have some special sweets which I love like Gurer Sandesh, Gurer Makha Sandesh, Gurer Kachagolla, Janai style Gurer Monohora. Nolen Gur in different size containers are also sold.

One of the oldest and best sweet selling shops in Kolkata. Tast are heavenly awesome.Nothing to recommend as many are madly in love with it and I am also part of them ♥

The sweets are awesome. Flavor sandesh are next level like strawberry, mango, butter scotch, chocolate vanilla etc. Packaging is also good. Value for money.

Kolkata is full of gems when sweets are concerned and this one is one of them,situated around 15 min walk from Girish Park metro its worth the walk. The shop is around 180 year old and specializes in Sondesh. Whenever I visit such type of legendary places just request them to serve few of their best one,here request best 4 and after eating it was difficult to decide. Its a must visit place,every sweet tooth visiting Kolkata should have in the bucket list.

One of the most oldest and the best sweet shop selling " only sandesh" sweets. The place gives the best quality of sweets, KOLKATA is known for. Now the price is a bit pricy as compared to local sweet shops but the quality is something you would not even find in 5 star restaurants around the city. The legacy is kept well.

Started in 1844 by Girish Chandra Dey, this age old sweet shop offers the best Sandesh in the city. From Nolen Gur Sandesh to Chocolate sandesh, they’ve got it all. Strawberry, Kiwi, Blueberry, Butterscotch.. so many options to choose from! I honestly love the fact that they’re very consistent with their quality and keep coming up with new flavours. You’ve got to try their winter specials like kanchagolla, monohara, gurer jalbhara and dark chocolate! Trust me, you won’t get such amazing flavours anywhere in the world! Must try- Kara paak, Jolbhora, Chandrapuli, Chocolate Sandesh, Kachagolla, Dark Chocolate Sandesh, Monohara, Amrito, Sachin, Gur makha Sandesh, Strawberry Sandesh, Kiwi Sandesh, Butterscotch Sandesh and Gurer Malai Roll. •Timings- 7am to 10.30pm (best to go before 6pm as everything gets sold out quickly)

Owners are very friendly. We tasted almost 15 different sweets of single pieces. Must try in Kolkota as sweets have unique taste here

It is one of the heritage sweet shops of Kolkata as well as whole West Bengal. Girish and Nakur are known for their amazing varieties of Sandesh. Although, it is a bit expensive than the local sweet shops but worth a shot considering their delectable varieties.

Best place for Sandesh (sweets) in entire world. They have many varieties and each sweets tastes different. You would never regret if you are a Sandesh Lover. I tried 10 types of sandesh and still wanted more but my stomach didn't allow me. Will definitely complete the remaining in next time and it will be in Winter so that I can try Sandesh made from Nolen Gur. ☺️👍 A must visit for sweet lovers and food lovers ❤️

YUMMY... All the sweets that we had were just AWESOME... their speciality is Sandesh varieties... Makha Sandesh is also available here at Rs. 750/kg (it is not showcased, you have to ask for it and they will bring it from inside)... Rest Aabar khabo, Narkel Sandesh, Jolbhora, Chandrapuli, Monohara all were good... And above all... going to this iconic place and having sweets was an amazing experience... and the quality they have maintained after all these years from 1868 is praiseworthy... A must visit in Cental Kolkata...

Famous sweet shop in Kolkata and oldest shop delicious sweets and Kolkata Night riders when win 1st IPL trophy celebrate with sweet cake the cake made by this Shop .

This is a very old condiment / sweet shop of Kolkata. The legacy goes beyond 170 years. They are specialist of making dry sweets. Highly recommended sweets to get from here - Gud Monohora, any variation of Jolbhora Sandesh, Any variation of normal Sandesh and Malai Singara. Malai Singara can be somewhat rich for some people.

Heaven for sweet lovers. You may not like the outer appearance of the shop . Old place, sarounde with grills. You will only get sondesh no suger syrup sweets. Tests are heavenly awesome. Must try jolbhora. Sweets are kind of mouth melting and balanced sweetness.

Its a small sweet shop, located near Christ Church, tucked away in a side alley while established in the 1844 (178 years old) and has achieved a legendary status and practically has become a part of city’s heritage. They have sheer variety of different Sandesh which is their specialty. Its a must visit for all true foodies with a sweet tooth.

Heritage establishment offering delectable variety of sandesh- I tried kora paak sandesh (melt-in-mouth experience) and Sachin Sandesh (yes, it's dedicated to Sachin Tendulkar). Prices are higher when compared to other sweet shops. However, it feels justified as Girish-Nakur has emerged as a brand offering fine authentic Bengali sweets since 1844.

This one of the oldest sweet shops in Kolkata, really lives up to its legacy. Still making the best of sweets .

This shop is the prime example where legacy speaks. With no fancy dining, no dim lights or great infrastructure Girish Chandra Dey and Nakul Chandra Nandy stood out from the crowd. Sweets ranges between 20-50 rupees are definitely not cheap by any means but an individual will pay only for it's heritage. Timeless 'Sandesh' is what you should try all the time whenever you visit this place. Staffs cater our order quite fast and we don't have any problem whatsoever. Though, parking is available there when we visited, on busy days parking might be a problem only because of its situation just beside Ramdulal Sarkar Street. So, better to take your two wheeler. Although, you will visit this place for its sweets and not for the chaotic Calcutta streets and when you put a chunk of 'Sandesh' in your mouth you will ultimately forget those bedlams.

I have taken few sweets and love the taste and favour, cost me rs. 25 per pcs Don't need to recommend because it's already have many loyal customers and today I am also part of them ❤️

One of the finest sweet shops in Kolkata . The sweets leave a taste in your mouth long after they are relished . Truly fantastic sweets .

The best place to have unique and different varieties of Sandesh...the best ones are chocolate Sandesh, narampaak & kadapaak....!!!

This is the Vatican of Sandesh lovers. Impeccable taste and everytime I go, my childhood memories are revisited . My all time favourites are Jolbhora, Monhora and Chandrapuli !!

Excellent . সন্দেশ মানে "নকুড়" ।।। ���� কোনও কথা হবে না ।।

One of the best in town❤️

You can't go wrong with any choice you make here in Nakur. "Aam sandesh" and chocolate fusion sweets are mist try. If you are in Kolkata, during winter months, never miss "gurer" variations.

Located just 10 mins walking distance from Girish park metro station and and 5 mins walking distance from hedua park. It near Girish park police station.<br/><br/>It's a very old sweet shop very renowned ones selling authentic Sandesh the prices of which are a a bit high.<br/><br/>The best selling item here is the chocolate Sandesh price only RS 10.<br/><br/>Other reowned Sandesh are -<br/>Bluberry Sandesh<br/>Kiwi Sandesh<br/>Orange Sandesh<br/>Butterscotch sandesh.<br/>

Being a sweet tooth, its quite obvious to have tasted almost all the delicious sweets made by Girish Chandra... and the best amongst all the best is the ICE CREAM SANDESH<br/>

Being from an Bengali Family this place has been our go to sweet shop on any special occasion be it Janmashtami or bhai phota <br/>This place is a heritage in itself<br/>And till today its quality of sweets haven't changed<br/>Yes its a bit costly but trust me the taste is heavenly<br/>I would like to suggest some of my favorites and their best sellers<br/>🔸jalbhara sandesh<br/>🔸Mango Sandesh<br/>🔸 Chocolate Sandesh<br/>🔸 Then all the nolen gur sandesh

I'm a Bengali and being one, I cannot say no to sweets... Especially when you hear about JolBhora Sandesh, this place is a must visit...

This is just beside my house nd oh god i feel so lucky that i have sweets whenever i want. I am not a sweet lover , but nakur makes me love sondesh (sweet). <br/>It is one of the oldest nd best sweet shop in kolkata. Everyone must come nd try once in a lifetime . They have a huge spread of sweets with varities of flavours. Must try is stuffed chocolate sandesh, singara sandesh nd ice cream sandesh. Nd not to forget in the summer they make a special flavoured rabri that's a must try.

Best Sondesh in town!

The best sweet shop in town. They have some unique fusion sweets. Love their sweets. The butterscotch,blackcurrent sondesh are a favourite.

I absolutely love all their sweets..<br/>They are truly the best..

Located very close to Hedua and the house of Swami Vivekananda, this legendary sweet shop requires no introduction. I have been a fan ever since I could eat outside food. The different types of Sandesh always impress me and make me crave for more.

This place is almost 176years old and it's still running and very popular.<br/>They have bagged many awards and one of the most popular sweet shop and also exists in hearts of many bengali sweet lover.<br/>Mostly this place will be crowded but it's worth your patience.<br/>They take wedding and bulk orders.<br/>Variety of sweets available and quick service!

গিরিশচন্দ্র দে ও নকুড়চন্দ্র নন্দী. ‘বাঙালি’ শব্দের সমার্থক শব্দ জানতে চাইলে নির্দ্বিধায় তার উত্তর হতে পারে ‘মিষ্টি’।রসে বশে বাঙালীর ভোজনরসিকতা নিয়ে তো নতুন করে বলার কিছু নেই।আর শেষ পাতে মিষ্টিমুখ না হলে তো পেটপুজোর পুরোটাই বিফলে।তা সেদিন ‘স্বাধীন ভারত হিন্দু হোটেল’-এ কব্জি ডুবিয়ে খেয়ে পাঁপড়ে কামড় দিতে না দিতেই মনটা মিষ্টির জন্য হু হু করে উঠলো।এদিকে পেট আর একটুও জায়গা দিতে অপারক।অগত্যা ওখান থেকে বেড়িয়ে হাঁটা শুরু করলাম।হাঁটতে হাঁটতে কলেজ স্ট্রিট বাটা-র রাস্তা ধরলাম।কলেজের স্মৃতির স্মরণী বেয়ে হেঁটে চললুম সোজা।পৌঁছলাম রামদুলাল বাস স্টপেজে।ব্যস,আবার সেই ভেতরের খাদ্যরসিক মনটা জেগে উঠলো।একেই শেষ পাতের মিষ্টিটা পেন্ডিং আছে।যা বুঝলাম তাতে পেটও এবার মিষ্টি মিষ্টি করছে।অতএব রামদুলালের গলিতে ডুকে পড়লাম এবং পৌঁছলাম গিরিশচন্দ্র দে ও নকুড়চন্দ্র নন্দী-র দোকানের সামনে।

This is probably one the best misti shop in North kolkata. There is no comparison of the sandesh created by them

I just can't understand one thing that I can see here that there are many names & brands here but they are not providing any online orders so if they are not doing any business with Zomato So what hell they are doing here they are only getting their Adds in Zomato's website

Awesome most authentic bengali sondesh

As expected, their sweets are amazing and I really like how there are so many varieties of sweets to choose from, which never makes a visit to this place boring, ever, thanks to so much variety and so many types of sweets!<br/><br/>However, the only problem I have with it is that there is some strange and weird smell coming out of it (probably the smell of the sweets but not a nice smell) and I hope they can fix that soon enough.

Well the options are huge the flavors are awesome and there is queue every-time.I tried Strawberry,Butterscotch,Sapta,mango among others.They are mostly known for Butterscotch Sandesh.I found strawberry awesome.Price are high for the quantity served

Food Captured: Butterscotch Malai Chop.<br/>Price: 25 Rs<br/><br/>Who would've thought an indian sweet dish could be so inviting and delicious with the flavour of butterscotch!<br/>The whole piece had a strong flavour of butterscotch, the exterior was made of kheer, deep fried in ghee. The interior butterscotch filling converged with our taste buds to give the most delighting taste. As the name suggests, the whole dish was made with butterscotch, kheer and malai..<br/>Stars : 4/5 ⭐.

This is one of the highest rated places in Kolkata with probably most number of votes. It's not a fancy shop with a nice showroom and great services. All it has is a small shop with a kitchen at the back and a range of the world famous Sandesh of Bengal.<br/><br/>I have always been a fan of old shops which have still kept the authentic taste they were famous for , this shop does justice to it's famous name , the sweet it serves and maintaing the famous tagline for Kolkata "The sweetest part of India."<br/><br/>I went during the Pujo season so the rush was expected. The shop was easily spotted with crowd buzzing all around it. We asked the shopkeeper about his best product and he smiled and replied try anything you won't be disappointed.<br/><br/>I tried almost all varieties of Sandesh , the chocolate one , mango, butterscotch, kiwi , pineapple, the simple Sandesh and variety of different flavours.<br/>And the flavours were actually complimenting the sweet.<br/><br/>These shops are pride of Bengal, and does require a visit.

Girish Chandra Dey and Nakur Chandra Nandy is eminent for traditional sweets of North Kolkata. Manohara is a speciality which was amazing and sachin sandesh and orange sandesh were added for the millennials.<br/>Jashodhara Chandra

We collected the coveted and pre booked bijoya misti platter from this legendary place this year. This contains all the types of sweets ever made in this outlet in a single decorated box. There are around fifty sweets. This box is a treasure trove- pure bliss!

The name says it all..one of the best place for their authentic and traditional sweets..this shop is 10 mins walking from Girish park metro station and near Bethune college..each and every sweet has its own unique flavour..the price is on a higher side but considering the taste it is just wow..a must try for all foodie😋❤️

This outlet is located near Hedua Park. Take the lane besides Bethun School, it will be on the left side.<br/><br/>**Decoration- The main attraction of the whole decoration is the display area of different sweets.<br/><br/>**Food- As a Bengali ,sweet is my most  favourite part among the whole meal.So when I reached here I had ordered different types of sweets.Those were-<br/>•Malai Singara<br/>•Amrapali<br/>•Dark Chocolate<br/>•Sada Malai Roll<br/>•Badami<br/>Each Rs.25.<br/><br/>**Service- Service was quick.<br/><br/>**Girish Chandra Dey & Nakur Chandra Nandy is the star of sweet industry of bengal. This place is the perfect synonym of traditional culture of Bengal & bangalis.<br/><br/>#foodforlife🍦🥧🍰🍮<br/>#loveforfood❣️💕💞💓

They have been serving for quite a long time and butterscotch, black forest, chocolate sondesh has been quite favorite

It's like heaven for sweet lovers u will get so many variety n with proper qualities of product n fresh that makes it spl and so many flavors variety

One of Calcutta's oldest and loveliest mishti joints. They always have progressive flavored mishti. My favorite one is chocolate ball and butterscotch Sandesh.

The Sandesh is good in taste and different in taste if I compare it with other places.<br/><br/>Authentic taste.<br/><br/>Take away shop.<br/><br/>Location - on a busy road

বাঙালি মিষ্টান্নের এক অন্যতম ও শ্রেষ্ঠ প্রতিষ্ঠান গিরিশ চন্দ্র দে এবং নকুল চন্দ্র নন্দী। ছোটবেলা থেকেই বাবা মা দাদু ঠাকুমার কাছে এনাদের মিষ্টির অনেক সুখ্যাতি শুনেছি। এত বছর পর তন্ময় দার সৌজন্যে এনাদের মিষ্টি চেখে দেখার সুযোগ পেলাম।<br/>চেখে দেখলাম ওনাদের কিছু বিখ্যাত মিষ্টি, তবে মিষ্টি না বলে সে গুলোকে সন্দেশই বলা ভালো। এখনকার ফিউশনের যুগেও এনারা সেই আদি মিষ্টি তৈরির পরম্পরা কে ধরে রেখেছেন। এনাদের আরও একটি ব্যাপার লক্ষ্য করলাম এনাদের কোন মিষ্টিই পরের দিনের জন্য আর পড়ে থাকে না, চোখের নিমেষে সবই ফাঁকা হয়ে যায়।<br/><br/>এনাদের পাঁচ রকম মিষ্টি চেখে দেখলাম। যেগুলি হলো -<br/>১. মালাই সিংগারা<br/>২. আম্রপালি<br/>৩. বাদামি<br/>৪. সাদা মালাই রোল<br/>৫. ডার্ক চকলেট<br/><br/>ডার্ক চকলেট মিষ্টি টি একদম শেষের দিকে ছিলো। কপাল খুবই ভালো তাই দুই পিসই জুটলো। মালাই সিংগারা আর আম্রপালি টা এতো ভালো লাগলো যে বাড়ির জন্য প্যাক করে নিতে ভুললাম না।<br/><br/>আবার কখনও হেদুয়ার দিকে গেলে ওনাদের বাকি মিষ্টিগুলো চেখে দেখে আসব

Famous Sweet shop to which everyone would agree.<br/>Each and every sweet has its own uniqueness, flavour and taste.<br/>Amazing experience and would love to visit it soon.

You don't need to review a place which is flocked by culinary greats such as Vikas Khanna and Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan. This place is always on my list whenever I visit Kolkata and always make it a point to pack some sandesh for journey back home.<br/><br/>We had the following -<br/><br/>Jal Bhara sandesh - it is a sandesh which has a sweet syrup inside. The moment you put it in the mouth it disappears as if you just had a marshmallow. It is so soft and tender.<br/><br/>Malia roll - it is a sweet roll with malai and masala in it. Unique delicacy and very rarely found in other places.<br/><br/>Chocolate sandesh - I just love the Innovation these guys have done with the sandesh. One such is the chocolate sandesh. Perfectly made and has the right chocolate taste to suit our taste buds.<br/><br/>Strawberry sandesh - as the name suggests, it's a strawberry flavored sandesh and I am a big fan of strawberry so loved the texture and taste.<br/><br/>Kesar sandesh - not sure if it's the name of the sandesh as they don't have menu but the taste was terrific and it had kesar on top of it.<br/><br/>Mango sandesh - this has to be my favorite one as the sandesh taste was spot on. They don't use pulp in it and it was evident from the first bite itself. Loved it completely.<br/><br/>Overall rating -<br/>Ambience - 4/5<br/>Food quality - 5/5<br/>Service - 5/5<br/>Value for money - 5/5

Have never been to this place, but one of my dear friend gifted a box of assorted sandesh. Must say its a box full of love - chocolate, bluberry, talsash, raw mango, mango sandesh is so fresh and the sweetness and flavours are perfectly balanced.

Ardent lover of sandesh over rosh er mishti... Abd this shop is famous for their sandesh. The one and only outlet in kolkata. They have not opened any other outlet to maintain the quality of the sweets. Tried their malai roll, which is made of cheese in small roll style, topped with malai. Low sweet, tasted great. Then had, chocolate sandesh, strawberry sandesh, which have their unique tastes. The staffs were nice, suggested me sandesh 's to try out.

Probably the only place that has been on my list for years and when I was in Kolkata this time, I just couldnt resist. This place is almost legendary and is located close to Girish Park. The shop is quite old and has a kitchen inside. The front is covered with iron grills. The only down side is their customer service on the front which could be better as they get irritated very fast. <br/><br/>They have a large variety of sondesh and sweet meats. I tried their Malai Roll which has a thick layer of milk fat or malai along with a soft cheese inside. The Mango Sondesh was my favorite as it had a subtle flavor of mango. The Kacha gola is one of the purest forms of sondesh with right sweetness. The best seller is their Jaal Bhora which is filled with sweet syrup and is absolutely amazing. The prices of the sweets are on the higher side compared to other places. <br/><br/>The Verdict:<br/>Taste - 8/10<br/>Service - 7/10<br/>Value for Money - 7/10<br/><br/>Great sondesh collection! I did get a packful of sondesh back home!

What to say about this place i have eaten sandesh from this place many times but today i went to the shop for the first time looking at crowd i really felt like i m at some legendary shop. I ordered all there sandesh they were looking so yum that i couldn't choose which to try and which not too 🙈 and really every single sandesh has there own different flavour still there gulab pati will always be my fav<br/>

To me this iconic sweet shop does not require any review....for me its nostalgia and in today's world they have retained the old days sweet shop facade and the quality of sweets have remained the same... I used to visit nakur sweet shops from kasba with friends to enjoy their sweets....

This iconic shop needs to introduction. Those who reside in Kolkata are all familiar with this shop. Since,the time I have started having a sweet tooth my mother got me sweets from here. From Chocolate sandesh to Sash bhora sandesh to my favorite NOLEN GUR er SANDESH,each of the item are to crave for.

Regular to this place since 2010.It is well known for authentic Bengali sweets being prepared since generations.We always try the chocolate sandesh whenever we visit.Quality wise it is one of the best in and around North Kolkata and the highest rated sweet shop.This explains the rush of people waiting outside for their orders.The interiors have an old world charm courtesy its origin during the British era.A must visit place for all the sweet lovers across the city.

Words are not enough for these place, a perfect heaven for all sweet tooth crazy people.. They have all types of variety item and one should taste every item.. They are just mouth watering and bliss to soul.. ☺

I did my graduation from Bethune college so I was a frequent visitor here. So one of the sweets I am bowled over is chocolate singara, so try this. Apart from this their Malai sandesh and other flavoured sweets are must try.

<br/>I was not a big fan of misti even after being a Bangali, as I've never tasted sweets from here.<br/>The speciality must be their unique fusion as well as the perfect balance of sweet.<br/>Each misti has their own different taste.<br/><br/>In frame:<br/>1. Choco Malai Roll<br/>2. Chocolate Singara<br/>3. Mango Mosumi<br/>4. White Forest<br/><br/>

Nakur makes most tasteful sweets in Kolkata.This is mouth watering and there are many flavours of sweets which bengali people like most. I love this shop since childhood.

This place is sweet heaven on earth you will get the best sandesh here and a lot of varities and flavour tried their chocolate sandesh, mango sandesh and butterscotch sandesh..

Truly speaking can't rate this place - this pace is above rating - taste is beyond imagination - quality wise it is the best -a must visit place

As always excellent. A tradition being carried through generations with quality and improved variety.<br/>This is just amazing. Would love see more variety on dark chocolate based items.

Been having sweets from this place since long. I plan to stop by always when i am passing through hatibagan / vivekananda road. They do serve some awesome sweets however there are some sweets which are just additions without flavours which does not suit there image. But still love their selective sweets. I feel there is no comparison to some of their authentic sweets.

The quintessential bangalir mishtir dokan. The highest rated sweet shop in the city. I definitely had to give this one a try!<br/><br/>Even before going there I was amazed with the facts I was hearing about the place. This place has become so famous that to not compromise on it's product it maintains it's own dairy and it is now 175 years old. Run by the same family of the founders it is now in it's third and fourth generations. Also, they cater to a huge audience outside India. Even then, they have blatantly refused to open a second branch anywhere else in Kolkata.<br/><br/>Located at the heart of North Calcutta, near Bethune college, this looks like a normal shop. A passerby will pass this place for 10 years without noticing any speciality in the shop ( of course he has to ignore the crowd ). But the demand of customers around the transparent kiosks holding the little pieces of different varieties of dessert tells a different story. A story that aligns with it's 4.9 rating on zomato.<br/><br/>We tried a variety of stuff. All the items was definitely very fresh, which gave the texture a flaky exterior. The sweetness is not a sudden burst in your mouth sweetness, rather it is something that grows upto a sensation as you take one bite followed by the next.<br/><br/>The only problem I found was although the different items promised different flavours, the base of the products had the same mouth and taste feel - which the different flavours were trying to hide. And the base flavour was not a taste I was very fond of.<br/><br/>This place is definitely more expensive than it's peers, but it is definitely worth a try.<br/><br/>

I have been to this place since my childhood. This is the place of my emotion. This is the place where sweets come from heaven. The purity of chenna makes this place a delight. Don't forget to try chocolate sweets also. If you want to grade this place in terms of quality and taste, this place will top in both of the sectors. The most appreciated thing of this place is that they make sweets infront of the customers. I mean every one can see what they are doing to create this masterpieces. But only their talent is needed to make those sweets this much heavenly. I will recomend every variety of chocolate sandesh and the master of all nalengurer naram paker jalbhara to every one. Dont forget to visit this place once you are visiting kolkata.<br/>*****highly recommended *****

If you live in Kolkata and don't know about this place then its sad. It is one of the oldest and probably one of the best sweet shops in the city. Located near Hedua this shop churns out a plethora of sandesh and other sweets day in day out and there is a constant rush of people waiting outside to get their orders fulfilled.<br/><br/>I have had a lot of sweets from here but in this review I'll right about the ones i had recently.<br/><br/>Butterscotch samosa (4.5/5)<br/>Butterscotch roll (5/5) must try<br/>Chocolate roll (4/5)<br/>Malai roll (5/5)<br/>Nolen Gur sandesh (5/5) must try<br/>Chocolatw sandesh (3.5/5)<br/><br/>In the past i have tried their mango and rose sandesh which were equally amazing.<br/>A must visit place if you are in Kolkata and love sweets 😊😊

Located near Hedua Park, this one is perhaps the best authentic Bengali sweet shop in Calcutta. Starting right from the traditional jhol-bhora talsansh to the delectably innovative chocolate sandeshes, every single thing will make you ask for more. Being a shop that dates back to the British Era, the interiors have an old world charm but are extremely well-maintained and hygienic. Whether you live in Calcutta or not, if you are a sweet meat lover (specially the Bengali ones), then this one is indeed your destination.

Home delivery should be there to adjacent areas.. Big problem to get the sweets from there.. U think about sweets than u should be here to eat.

It's an age old sweet parlour in the heart of North Calcutta..korapaker jolbhora sandesh here generally does the rounds..but chocolate balls available all around the year is an all time droolworthy,and a must have indeed.

My addiction!!! What else to say about this place?! Sandesh heaven. A MUST MUST MUST VISIT if you have sweet tooth like me and love sweets. As I always say, cant review such legendary shops.

It is situated just behind my college. Our professors gave us a box full of sweets as a treat on 5th September, and we literally fought to get those sweets as much as possible. If you don't like sweets then taste their sandesh for once . you will definitely fall in love.

This is the real place to buy Sandesh and there’s no looking back after! It’s a 150 year old business for no other reason! Long ride but worth the effort

Short Description : It's one of the famous sweet shops in North Kolkata with a 4.6 rating on Google and 4.9 rating on Zomato.<br/><br/>Location : A few minutes walk from Hedua crossing or Vivekananda road crossing will take you to this place.<br/><br/>Short Description : I have not tried all the sweets yet but I can tell you that you will love the taste of all the sweets. If you have a soft corner for chocolate sandesh then you will have a hard time selecting one as they have a wide range of varieties. Apart from chocolate sandesh they have multiple options including Monohora, Mohini, Lebu, Gurer Kanchagolla, Jolbhora, Malai Roll, Kiwi.<br/><br/>Must try : Chocolate Singara, Mohini, jolbhora.

It's very difficult to stand out as a Sweet Shop in Kolkata with a plethora of them all around. But GCD-NCN has managed to hold it's own for years. They have constantly reinvented themselves and updated their offerings to the changing times, retaining their hallmark of taste & quality.

One of the finest sweet shops of Kolkata...delectable sweets mostly sandesh...their nolen gur jolbhora both norom & kara pak simply bliss...during winter they make a Monohora type nolen gur coated sandesh...my mom is very fond of these sweets...the smooth texture of sandesh..aha simply out of this world...🖒🖒🖒

One of the best sweet shops in india. Huge collection of desserts, not only that the fusion items are very good. Fresh in quality, great in taste. Value for money is perfect. Always a busy shop but service is good. Their malai roll, jol bhora sandesh, misti singara, gurer sandesh etc lots of sweets are in my choice list. Must visited place.

Wow! Grate taste of the century. I am the fifth generation customer of this shop.<br/>My Grand Father, Grate Grand Father and Grate Grate Grand Father was the customer of it.
