Absolutely not, this place is a total scam. There are no prices displayed anywhere, so the owner can charge whatever he likes. It just feels wrong. He claims to offer top quality – but honestly, you can find much better quality and value elsewhere without feeling cheated. Unprofessional service, deserves zero stars.

Good spice shop

Extremely disappointing and feels like a scam. The owner even inquired about my nationality, seemingly to raise the price. The shop is also quite small, measuring no more than one and a half meters. Overall, a very poor experience. 👎🏻

Unfortunately, this feels like a scam. We were charged 6,000 rupees (£15) for just three small Jasmin creams, which we were later told was the price for each one. This was clearly outrageous, and since we weren't familiar with the currency conversion, we paid by card. To make matters worse, the pots were open and empty, with fingerprints on them. After some insistence, we managed to get a refund and return the products, but we had to cancel the card payment, which was challenging. We would have happily spent our money here if we hadn’t felt completely taken advantage of.

We went through the trouble of haggling tuk-tuk fares to reach this shop, expecting to find oils similar to those we discovered on the Indian subcontinent. However, the prices appeared to vary based on who you are. Additionally, the shop looked nothing like the photos. I felt very disappointed and believe it was a waste of time.

I found this place to be quite disappointing. It felt like a tourist trap! The photos looked fake, and the portion I received was very small. To make matters worse, it was really expensive with no prices displayed, leading to inflated tourist charges. There wasn’t much variety on the menu either. I’d suggest looking for somewhere else to eat. On the bright side, the guy was friendly and spoke both German and English, but it seemed like he was just trying to sell his products.

Due to the full moon festival, many shops were shut down. I came here hoping to purchase Ayurvedic medicine. The shopkeeper suggested an alternative that supposedly served the same purpose, but it had a completely different taste and was significantly pricier. I wouldn't recommend this place! It's far better to visit a specialized Ayurvedic store.
