I love their misti dahi,that is something special.They serves variety of sandesh and rasgullas. Rasgullas are amazing and also their singaras.
Bought some gulab jamuns, though tiny in size, they tasted great... the smell of ghee lingers. Right amount of sweetness with soft and smooth skin...delicious
I am a regular customer of Mithai because of the vantage location near Gariahat Crossing. The shop doesn't have the glitz & glam like many other sweet shops in KolkataI but you will love their mithais particularly their sandesh. The snacks section is mostly out of stock but their Shingara (Samosa) & Khasta Kochuri is to die for. Now I love my Shingara fillings sweet & they make the right potato fillings with coconut, badam, methi & a hint of ginger which definitely makes their shingara one of it's kind. Highly recommended. Do visit & try.
After trying out the more popular Bengali sweets outlets, we tried Mithai and loved it over every other place. The sandesh had just the right sweetness and they were all melt in the mouth kind. The salesmen at the counter are very helpful, seeing that we were new to the place they were quick to suggest what all we should try. Unlike another popular outlet that we checked out where the sales people were just not interested in tending to us.
Their singharas (samosas) are also excellent and so are the roshgullas. We had boxes packed to bring back home and they are vanishing by the minute. The sales person very politely packed all the boxea for us with assorted sandesh. A must try would be their rose, kesar and mango sandesh. Even though all of them are good, these clearly stood out. Its been 3 days since we got them and they are still very fresh tasting and in excellent condition!

This is my heaven if I am in Gariahat at all. I just love this place for its amazing sandesh es and doi. Even their namkeen is wow, choice is limited though. This place is a must visit for mishti lovers. I dont care about any other facilities when it comes to mishti. Hygienic too.
One of my mother's favourite confectioneries, they make Bengali sweets, doi etc. The sweets are quite tasty. I love their Mishti Doi, which is available in plastic containers. They have many customers who take away bulk of sweets for home as the packaging is very hygienic here. Variety of sweets available is quite large. Though a bit on the pricier side. It's a funny fact that they have weird price tags like Rs.17, Rs. 29 and what not, lol! It would really help with the chillar if they offered a rounded-off figure. All in all, a famous "mishtanno bhandar" for Bengalis who love sweets.
Singara, nimki - must try
Gurer rosogolla - during winter
@Sankh sondesh, kesar sondesh are all extremely good
Hot rosogolla - which is available at 5pm is truly mouth watering.
Mithai's nolen gurer rossogolla and shankh sandesh one of the best.
Misthi doi freaking awesome just loved it best in town.
Packing of sweets are good, can be carried easily anywhere.
Located Near Gariahat crossing.
Located in gariahat,this is a very popular "mishtir dokan" because of its good quality mishti's.The two special items of this shop are nolen gur er rasgolla & mishti doi. The rasgolla's are very good and soft when they are warm or just prepared(which i like the most) and doi is also very tasteful.Other sweets and snacks are also good but the samosa's are not that good enough,too much oily and the stuffings are not always fresh. But definitely a place for typical mishti lovers and definitely satisfies one's cravings and prices are also reasonable enough.

Located opposite the quest mall.
I love the nolen gur rossagulla and rosmalai.
They are actually very cheap comparatively with the quality and the high shops we are accustomed to.
Mithai is one if best in what they are.
Sweet taste, qualities are good. Well mannered staff. I ordered baked chom chom from their store, bangla misti hub
Most of the dry sweets (Sandesh ) and sweets like small white rosogolla & kolbalish taste really good. Apart from that they sell an innovative Sandesh 'cake' with Happy Birthday written on it.
Can be named or raked as good to go category.
Nolen gur - Rasogolla is an excellent delicacy
- Jolbhora, shankho are good one
Misti Doi is good.
Chitrokut - THE BEST.
Moreover you can park your 2 or 4wheller below the flyover.
Gariahat baazar is just adjacent.
This place has the best mishti doi in Kolkata. Hands down.
Winter in Kolkata is just setting in. It is November 2021. The main attraction in Bengali sweets is the advent of the Nolen and Patali Gur - the jaggery that is prepared after thickening the sap extracted overnight from the date palm (Khajur) tree. In the next 4 months some serious sweetmakers will use this special jaggery in most sweets made from chhana (cottage cheese). This jaggery is not meant for making sweets sweeter - it gives a unique flavour to sweets which you will not get after March 2022.
And Mithai (Gariahat) is one such gur-serious sweet maker. Try their soft (norom pak) and hard (kora pak) varieties - the shankh sandesh (conch shaped), the flower shaped circular one, the kachagolla (cottage cheese cooked with this jaggery and hand shaped into a spherical shape), the talshash sandesh etc. This store has many varieties of sweets cooked with gur - so you can choose.
The price used to be Rs 16 a piece a month back - but they have raised it marginally to Rs 18 a piece. Hope it stays there. Being seasonal, this price for gur items still seems reasonable.
Other than gur, their Dorbesh (a light fried sweet) and Singara (Samosa, a snack item) are very good.
Unfortunately due to the pandemic, they are the only shop which doesn't allow eating inside. So ask them before ordering if you have plans to sample and eat varieties of their sweets.
The best sweet shop in Kolkata
The Mango Sandesh ordered from this shop was soft and good. Thank you soooo much❤❤🤗
I love their singara! Somedays I missed, somedays I got . After coming back to the city, first thing I had was the singara. The famous khirer chop was yum too.... But I feel the options have become less than previous.
Good traditional Bengali sweets
This place is my go to solution for any occasion in my family, they have the beautifully designed and delicious large sized sondesh with greetings like 'congratulations', 'shubho jonmodin' embossed on them that serves the purpose of cake for my ' cream-o-phobic' cake hating family members. Among the regular ones, I love the aam- shondesh and Pantua!
