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....!!!
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.
It's a very old sweet shop very renowned ones selling authentic Sandesh the prices of which are a a bit high.

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).
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.
🔸 🔸 Legendary Sweet Shop in North Kolkata 🔸 🔸
Girish Chandra Dey & Nakur Chandra Nandy is one of the legendary sweet shops in the City of Joy located in the heart of North Kolkata near Hedua. It is one of the pioneer sweet shops that pops up in our minds when we think about good sweet shops in Kolkata. Personally, I am love to have typical Bengali Sandesh and this place is pure bliss as it is a heaven of sweet paradise. Whenever I think of having typical Bengali Sandesh then this place strikes my mind first. The different types of Sandesh from Nakur always impress me and make me crave for more. 😋 This place is the perfect synonym of traditional culture of Bengal & Bengalis sweets. From childhood I am a big fan of sweets of this legendary shop. It has been years and this place have never disappointed me. They have come up with new varieties year after year. They are specialist in various types of Sandesh, mishti rolls, monohora Sandesh and jolbhora Sandesh 💕
📍 Location: This legendary sweet shop is located at Ramdulal Sarkar Street near Hedua Park. It is situated very near to famous Bethune College.
📌I have visited this place uncountable number of times during all the important Bengali occasions like Bengali new year, Durga puja. On my recent visit to this place, I tried 🔸
⚜️ Monohora Sandesh
⚜️ Chocolate Sandesh
⚜️ Dark Chocolate
Whenever you visit this sweet paradise then do try their delicious chocolate sweets. On my way back home, I even packed some jolbhora sandesh and Badami sandesh.
▶Overall: - This legendary sweet shop requires no introduction. Perfect value for money famous sweets place. Carrying forward the legacy of the amazing "sweet" and blending the same with some modern flavours. It is recommended place to all the sweet lovers. 💕👌
One of the best places to have authentic bengali sweets!!
They have lot of variety to offer.
Love the chocolate sandesh more then the normal once. They also have mango sandesh which is also good to go.
Also there rosogollas are the best!! 💯
Gurer rosogolla is the favourite one here🤤😌
I had the privilege of experiencing the notun gurer sandesh.... And it is heavenly.
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...
