Very cute, corner grocery store with a lot of Indian and Southeast Asian products. There's a small aisle of fresh produce. Very happy with the small taro we bought from here. There's also a counter for hot food, and it appears that they can do some catering. There were also some small sparklers, firecrackers, and floating lanterns for sale near the front. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Spun off years ago from the Himalayan restaurant in Frazer (which has since changed hands and is no longer a place I'd recommend). They have a wide variety of indian food; as a grocery I'd place it second to my favorite, Usha's in Frazer (near the Himalayan restaurant). However, they also have a kitchen and have a variety of take-out food - 5 or 6 trays at any given time; naan, garlic naan, etc - and they can make anything off a much wider menu if you order, using the same recipes as the old original Himalayan restaurant did - which was my favorite Indian restaurant. They even made something not on the official menu (vegetable jalfrozi (sp)). If only I lived a little closer to it... read more

I have gone to this place to order Indian grocery. On the entry, I noticed that they have some food options to take out, which is a good thing. They have a good collection of parathas, veg and non-vegetarian gravy, and samosas come up sweet. We checked out our usual grocery list, and they also had a fresh collection of vegetables, not much but good good amount of vegetable options. The prices are comparable to the nearby Indian stores. The store people seem very friendly. The parking lot is ample. I like the food options they have. We have checked out Aloo Paratha, Paratha, and Chana masala. All of the food varieties are perfectly done. However, we did not like the sweets. But I will definitely shop here again for groceries as well as the food options. Nice place to shop. read more

A nice grocery store with everything you need when it comes to Desi cooking. They also serve fresh foods including curry, samosa and naan. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There is a nice variety will fresh veggies and a frozen section. I was a bit bummed they didn't have garlic from India. Overall, a gem in the area. They are closed on mondays. read more

Was shopping at the nearby Goodwill when I saw the sign for this store. Since I was in need of turmeric and know that Indian grocers are the most cost effective when buying spices in bulk I stopped in. The aromas are a kick to your senses. I loved walking around taking in all the unfamiliar scents and colorful labels and products. This was by far the largest Indian grocery store I've been in and was overwhelmed by the number of products - fresh and shelf staple available. At that moment I wish I was more familiar with the cuisine as I could have went crazy. They also had some freezers in the back and a hot food carry out section featuring several different entrees, sides, and desserts. I easily found what I came in there for and bought a big bag of turmeric for a mere $2.99! The fresh produce featured some familiar selections along with a few surprises, a strange variety of cucumbers and a tiny eggplant got my attention. Things to know: The surrounding shopping center is pretty sad, with overflowing trash cans, and a huge vacant storefront next door. I imagine it would be scary at night. Minimum is $10 to use a credit card. No one asked if I needed assistance and I did feel slightly out of place as someone who is not of Indian ethnicity. I would suggest bringing a list and/or being familiar with the products before you enter as I don't know how much help they're willing to offer. read more

This is a wonderful place. I love stopping here for fresh Indian food to-go as well as groceries. It is my go-to place for fantastic samosas and tea. They have fresh produce and an excellent selection of nuts and spices. Great snacks too, with lots of vegetarian and vegan options. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. read more

Amazing hot foods!!!! The staff is helpful as well. Only complaint is that they should offer more sauce for the Samosas. Please use bigger sauce containers, not the little 1.3 oz ones! At least use the 2oz containers so the samosas can somewhat be dipped into the sauce. Thank you. read more

I take my time shopping here because it always smells SO GOOD! They carry a full range of staples and spices, including harder-to-find items such as star anise or cardamom pods. Frozen foods, fresh produce - you really can get all your groceries here. But the reason I love this place so much is the fresh food they sell at the counter. It's all so delicious and inexpensive, I could eat here every single day. read more

First off.... I love this store, and I love their food! Today, I went to grab a big lunch to-go and ordered off the menu. I must say... their food is incredible as takeout. And what is even more special is that I wanted the Seminola Halwa, rather than the carrot on their menu, and they made it for me. It is my absolute favorite Indian dessert, and it's made this Mother's Day PERFECT!!! Definitely stop here and grab some food! 100% recommend (and I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to my Indian Cuisine). read more

This is my goto place for many spices- great prices as compared to supermarkets. On a whim decided to try the takeout- and am I ever glad I did. A complete dinner for 2 for $19. Tikka masala, chicken curry, samosas, garlic naan, lentil patties, and breaded deep fried long hots. Everything was fantastic! These guys can cook. Can't beat the quality /price value prop. I now have a new place for fast Indian takeout. Himalayan is at the top of its game. read more

Oh how I love this place. I have to admit, the first couple of times I went in here, I got some stare-downs! - not from the lovely ladies behind the counter, but from other customers. Sorry, my skin is pale and I love - and can cook - Indian food. Deal with it. The Samosas are the best in town and my second- favorite ever, and their take- out food is delicious. I love their bitter melon and chana masala, and come back for both repeatedly. It's small and the shelves are packed - definitely not the hugest selection, but they have what I need, including my toothpaste - and the prices are great! read more

Continuing my Indian grocery tour, we come to Himalayan. This is a great store with a good selection of spices, rice, and produce. They also have some delicious looking hot food- including chana and samosas- we didn't purchase this trip but made a mental note to return to try. I purchased Bedekar's mixed pickles, fresh okra, some biscuits for Publius Jr. , and a Dairy Milk for Mrs. Publius. Recommended! read more

ordered samosa ! And I was waiting in the car for 30 min. Took forever. No response read more

This grocery store has all the typical Indian staples as well as freshly made hot food, including several vegetarian and non-veggie options. Their garlic naan is to die for, light and buttery with just enough garlic. The samosas and pakoras are also freshly made and are outstanding as well. My friend asked them to 'kick it up a notch' in terms of heat level. Big mistake! While still savory and with incredible flavor, the dishes became difficult to eat due to the pain. Unless you enjoy that, I'd just stick with the unmodified versions :) This is a great place to pick up a quick meal to go at a great price or to get your rice/spices to make your meal at home. read more

Top notch! Stopped by here today to get some mango puree and Indian yogurt for my mango lassis and boy am I glad I did! Ended up buying an assortment of frozen foods, fruit, dry foods, and hot prepared take-out, all of which have been incredible so far. Frozen foods: They have a whole row of freezers packed full with all sorts of frozen curry meals, Asian cooking ingredients (like spring roll wrappers, etc), and frozen samosas and paneer. I've never seen a better frozen selection in any other Indian grocery. Fruit: Bought a box of mangoes. I've eaten one so far and it is heavenly. It is one of the best mangoes I have ever eaten. These things are going to make my mango lassi even more ridiculously orgasmic than they ordinarily are. Hot takeout: Got a medium chicken curry, a small bharta (eggplant) dish, a garlic naan, and a samosa for about $13. If you have basmati rice and a rice cooker at home, this is enough for two meals for two. Scoooooooore! Overall, this place is a fantastic gem and I'll be returning whenever I'm in the area or out of supplies for homemade Indian cuisine. read more

I've been shopping at Himalayan for about 2 years now. I know there is a bigger Indian grocery store in Exton, but I truly love coming here because it's small, the staff is friendly and I can easily find what I'm looking for whenever I go shopping (generally once every week/every other week). The prices here are really fantastic as well and if I'm hungry I can always get a nice pepper pakora as a snack (or something else... but I really love these!) I've gone there a few times on a Sunday and they have home made pickle in the front next to the flat breads. I love them, I binge eat them out of the container even though I should be eating them with my food. I don't know why I do it, they are just so good. I really could shop at a fancier Indian grocery store, but Himalayan is just the type of not-overwhelming, awesome store I love. read more

Large selection of the things I buy at Indian grocery stores. Took home a container of their fresh-made bhindi curry and aloo paratha. Delicious! Their alci ladoo sweets were an unexpected treat. Who knew flaxseed could be so tasty? read more

Great selection of Indian ingredients and great prices. Nice produce and spice selection. Prepared food is also very good. Only complaint is they say they are an Indo-Asian grocery but they don't actually carry Asian ingredients. Knowing this going in, I'd give it a 5. Quality family run business. read more

I went here during their lunch buffet and the food was really good! I am a big fan of Indian cuisine and have visited just about every buffet in the area and I thought this place by far was one of the best. It was relatively empty so my water glass stayed filled and the server was polite. The price was in line with all of the local Indian restaurants but the quality was better read more

Fantastic place! I found everything from fresh produce to spices, dals, rice and jarred items like ghee and tahini. The prepared foods are authentic, tasty and easy on the wallet. Since we moved to the area I have been here twice in six weeks to pick up essentials for cooking Indian food. The staff speaks english and are very helpful. As with most ethnic store like this, if you show a true appreciation for the culture and the food you will be rewarded with a wealth of information including recipes and preparation techniques. This definitely a place to return to again and again. I'll be back next week for more excellent prepared foods and ingredients. read more

More than the grocery store itself (which I like quite a lot), I like the hot food service. The store sells to-go containers of some of the more popular Indian dishes and each item that I've tried has been really great. In fact, I would say that the quality is generally better than that which I get from an average restaurant. The prices however, are only about 50% of restaurants'. read more

Beware they sale expired items on less price. So make sure to double check expiry of each discounted price items. On positive side, I find everything I need in this store and I noticed they have less price then Bhavani indian store which is its competitor being in same area. read more

This place is awesome. Wide selection of Groceries and their hot takeout samosa, naan and curries are so delicious!!!

This store is OK , we get all required Indian products, but there is a catch. If something that the customer buys turns out to be bad, it becomes the customer's loss. This merchant wont entertain any refunds/returns. We bought a coconut and and as soon as we got home we cut it into two and found that it was completely rotten, when we called the store, the owner lady is giving an explanation that she did not force me to buy it from her store and there's no guarantee on it, so whatever I buy is a gamble and if it turns out to be bad, then it is on me. I would say this is a utterly treacherous way of ripping off the customers. There's no other grocery store or super markets where I have encountered this type of treachery. read more
