Bharat Bazar

Great prices for vegetables! I used to always buy onions for less than 50 cents per pound (elsewhere) before the pandemic but it seems prices have AT LEAST doubled everywhere except here. I don't know how they manage to still keep the onion prices below 50 cents per pound here. Also very reasonable prices for other vegetables. Worth visiting this store ...

Solid Indian Grocery Store. Lots of interesting items from spices, produce, rice, daal, Ayurvedic soaps, and good quality organic jaggery aka healthy natural sweetener.Worth coming here if in the area.

Great local market, I took my father here a year ago while picking up some produce and he remembered the curry powder and some deserts I grabbed a year later! He wanted to come back for some of these to give to relative back home.Bharat is very clean and organized, when you walk in it will remind you of Sprouts or Whole goods.They have a variety of Indian food, spices, and snacks you will only find at specialized markets like this. I've got szechuan peppercorn from here as well as Radhuni for making fish curry.My dad loves the "Pooja" local brand Curry Powder which is made right here in Fremont! It makes a delicious Indian style yellow-curry super good with protein and vegetables.My father also loves the Soan cake + papdi, they are deserts made in India, have tons of ginger, and are so flaky and light you can cut them with a spoon.

They have started online delivery.I have used their website to place order.Their staff, does not check the items that are sent to customers. This is basic expectation, that the items they send are not spoilt and is clean.Yesterday, I ordered a bunch of mint leaves. And when i received the leaves, the bunch contained so many snails.It wasn't 1 or 2 snails in the bunch, there were at least 6-7. It felt so unhygienic. The staff at the store is careless and not taking care to pack and send good stuff. Even before, I received a completely spoilt Honeydew fruit, which was charged quite high, @ $8 a fruit.

I love this market. All things Desi, supplying all of my vegetarian needs from fresh produce to my beloved Hakka noodles..... Extensive packaged spice selection, chutneys, well stocked frozen cases with South and North Indian goodies..... Last trip I loaded up on Maggi noodles for the quarantine, chutneys, frozen Idli and some masala Gujarat Anand chips. Plus, the cashiers are always friendly and the place is so vibrant and clean too! Plenty of parking in the rear parking lot.

Bharat Bazar was an inadvertant drive by. tried to go paseo padre. drove onto Hastings. it was blocked for saturday event. in short, drove into this parking lot to turn around.Bharat Bazar is one of the cleanest, well organized markets i've ever seen. long aisles of snacks, baked eateries, refrigerated good, produce, spices, cooked snacks at counter, etc.eats: "jabsons roasted namkeens" (grains & nuts) 200 gm. (1.89)-actually ranged up on register what was priced on the shelf.-crunchy, salty, drytake outs:-bakes and snacks are made with GMO oils (canola, peanut, oil, corn, soybean, etc.) -loaded with fats, etc.

They are not following social distancing guidelines or anything. Went in one evening and there was a long line inside for checkout. People were standing so close to each other (no 6 feet) and they did nothing to enforce COVID guidelines. I have seen other stores only limit a certain number of people inside at a time, but these guys had everyone walk in just like that. Plus some people came in groups of 4 with kids and everything.. It was like living in pre-COVID times.Time to call the authorities so that they can put the whip on these guys..

Prices are very expensive. Poor quality. The prices at Indian grocery stores in Bay Area vary by like 50cents, max by a dollar. However this place price grouches by like $5 for certain items. I thought of posting the receipts from this place vs another major Indian grocery chain in Bay Area for the same items, but couldn't quite figure out to how add photos to the review.

We got the Nanak sweets 2 days backOpened the box to find out that the sweets ( ladoo) were having fungus on them, I will be reporting this to the food inspector Here one can see the receipt when the sweets were bought and the box of sweets with fungus on them showing the expiration date in far further , but the product is poisonous

They have expired items on their counter. Be careful. Don't want to get sick after consuming. They don't care.
