Amazing little Indian store with everything I needed at a great price! The staff were super friendly and helpful with all of my requests and I look forward to coming back when I run out of all of my groceries. Highly recommend to everyone.

Everything you expect to find in an Indian store, you can find it here. Prices are mixed, some items are cheaper compared to other local supermarkets and some are expensive. The shopkeepers are super friendly so make sure you dont forget to greet. To reach by subway, get down at 53rd Street station.

Situated right by the mouth of the 53rd Street subway station, this aptly placed branch of Patel’s Brothers is one of the few truly Indian stores you can find in NY/NJ area. While most of the products are imported from the motherland, some of them are locally sourced and yet, are as Indian as they can be. This store especially is convenient for me with its ease of access, reliability and not to forget, extremely hospitable owners. The staff seem more than eager to assist you with your shopping, coming to your aid when in need. The prices are as low as they can be and the quality is above and beyond.

This Patel store is smaller than the one in Jackson Heights. It has a wide range of products tho, like spices, frozen food and snacks. Fresh produce is very limited. However I had a bad experience with the old man who usually sits behind the counter. He is rude, definitely not a way to treat a customer.

I love Patel in Jackson Heights. Have to give this smaller sister location 4 stars simply because its so small. For its size, its great... if you need Indian cooking essentials or little things from the motherland like a bag of Kurkere, theyve got you covered.

Very excited to find this Indian grocer in my hood-ish! Its not very big but it had exactly what I needed, fresh curry leaves, Indian snack mix, long grain rice, masala flavored potato chips, chickpea flour and more!The only other place I could get fresh curry leaves would have been walking to the city since were still in a pandemic or driving to Queens. The store smelled wonderful and they had a nice selection of spices and grains and these cool little chaat kits. They even had masala flavored oatmeal!

The only Patel Store that I know of in Brooklyn. They are also responsible for packaging a lot of Indian grocery items for wholesale that one can buy in other smaller Indian or Pakistani stores. Their prices are better than stores in the Manhattan at least but they are not very cheap either. They have most of the popular foods from India but wish they carried some fresh snacks like samosas etc like some stores in Manhattan do. It would make the store perfect. If you are from India and miss your favorite things to eat from India, definitely give it a shot.

EDIT 5/18: Was in the area and stopped in. It was a pleasant experience. The shop is kind of small for good distancing. Great selection of spices.DURING COVID PEAK: Specific to the Covid-19 pandemic: I wasnt allowed into the store while they let in other people. I had both a mask and gloves. After some waiting, I was let in, only to be kicked out after a second. I tried to ask why but the owner started screaming at me. Not a great experience but I understand everyones a bit stressed right now. Basically, I would encourage you to order online and have your Indian grocery needs shipped if youre unsure about this place being open or letting people in during these times. Save yourself a trip.

Store is hard to move in as its too small but its got most of the stuff that you would require to prepare good Indian food. If you take the R line to access the store, the entry/exit of the station is literally at the entrance of the store. So its very easy to commute with a lot of groceries in hand.

Review №33

Great place to buy whole and ground spices and other pantry goods for excellent prices. They also offer lots of Indian and Southeast Asian ingredients (e.g., paneer, tamarind paste) that can otherwise be tricky to find.

Review №34

This is the only Indian grocery store in the area, so Indians in southern Brooklyn are forced to go there.Its a small shop, much like a deli on a corner. Shop staff is not friendly or helpful.Also, make sure that you count every item because if you are not looking carefully, the shopkeeper will increase the price or add some amount in the total. And if you catch this scam, he will say it was a mistake in counting.He will not give you a receipt and you can not return items.

Patel Brothers is an Indian grocery store in Bay ridge area. They have a large collection of indian sweets, spices, and confectioneries. The most rare ones are desi dahi, dosa mix, paneer, indian sweets, and variety of roties. The store is very small but the owners are kind and friendly. They accept cards for purchases above $15. Great place to grab quick indian snacks.
