    This place is always crowded as they sell fresh stuff. Recently bought few savouries and food to eat, but oh my everything had sugar. No wonder indians have the highest prevalence of diabetes Their jalebis were soggy and not crisp as it should be. They get 3 stars due to soggy jalebis n dhoklas samosas bhajias very sweet.

    My recent visit to Jalaram Sweet in Leicester was a big disappointment, forcing me to give it just one star, despite being a loyal customer. I ordered the pakoda (bhajiya), but it was far from fresh and gave me food poisoning. This has shattered my trust in the place, and I won't be returning. The food quality was far away from match with hygiene ratings of this place, with the potatoes in the bhajiya being spoiled and emitting a strange odor. It doesn't meet basic food standards, and I hope the management takes this feedback seriously for the sake of their customers as i will make sure to report this to local authorities of food hygiene .

    Good selection of ethnic vegetarian food, snacks and sweets. Attentive customer service. Finding parking in the area is a challenge.

    Extremely busy & extremely popular. You can fit 3 customers inside the shop, and there was a queue of 10 outside, and this seems to be the case right throughout the day. Very small & cosy. Staff were very friendly & dealt with my rather large order with the minimum of fuss & hassle. The sweets were excellent & it is worth noting that their competitors had very few customers whereas these guys were maxed out.

    I recently ordered online from Jalaram. Their website was very modern and made it easy for me to choose what I want, also the delivery was excellent. I received the food very fast and it was perfectly packaged. Definitely recommend, great service.

    Really quick service, I ordered over the phone a mixture of food including Dhokra, Samosas, Gatiya and a portion of their lovely chips with their house masala sauce and it was all ready in 10 mins. The food was all lovely and I would definitely go back here as the service, food and hygiene is 100% the best on Melton road compared to the other sweet marts.

    Ordered for home delivery outside Leicester unfortunately very very low standard of food. Where to start? The savoury snacks are too salty, overly cooked looking almost burnt when the colour should be light cream yellow. The sweets were very low quality loaded with extra sugar. Online the products look as if so fresh and good quay however this is not the case. Home delivery orders should be properly packed with a delivery note stating order details and where the product is coming from. No best before date on packaging and very poorly packaged in thin bags and cardboard boxes. It seems this place really does not care about it’s customer service or quality of products. It seems the ingredients which are cheaper to buy are used more rather then what should actually be in a product eg peanuts VS Cashews and almonds. Not to the UK standards. Not a place to order again ever. Very very low standards.

    A walk on the Golden mile, Leicester is not the same unless you sample some of the amazing food there. The Jalaram ambli (tamarind) chips are hands down THE best you'll find in Leicester or anywhere really! Plenty of chips and plenty of ambli always, for a taste extravaganza that is unmissable!! All for just £2.40! Keep up the great work. A local treasure known for their indian sweets as well their ambli chips!!

    Management are completely useless. They don't knowledge the customer. Had issues with the quality spoken to the manager refused to refund my money and told me to throw the food in the bin. No morals a complete joke. They seem to like robbing customers I would never purchase again from this place be warned.

  • 5/5 Pranay V. 10 months ago on Google
    I have ordered from many Indian sweet marts across the country, but I must say no where can compete with Jalaram Sweet Centre in terms of its customer service and delicious array of food. It’s consistency is also unmatched as I am never disappointed when I order from here! I recommend there Kachoris and Chevro for anyone that hasn’t been!

  • 3/5 anand b. 1 year ago on Google
    I thought i would try on the off chance it might be good - there is so much choice on Melton / Belgrave Road Spicy Chevro - is sadly not spicy and full of sugar (had better from Mithaas on Narborough road). Patta Gathiya - were pretty ok. Too thick for my liking but edible Dhokra - did not have too much sugar which was a good thing. Hate everything with sugar but these were very good. Suggestion is for owners to reduce the amount of sugar in the spicy chevro. otherwise a decent place.....

    The service here is reliable and quick. The staff are so kind and the food is incredible. If anyone is in the Leicester area, this is a place they should stop at I highly recommend.

    Superb customer service from a delightful n classic family business. They are doing very good thali for best price and very affordable for whole community. My daughter has moved for university to Scotland and we send her food and have a NEXT DAY delivery. Keep up the good work, we are lucky to have this valued business for our Leicester Indian community

    My first online order from Kent. The products were neatly packed and the package was delivered undamaged. However disappointed with the following: - Half the Kachooris were split and fillings spilled in the box. It looks like the outer shells were all cracked. Don't think it was a transport issue. - I found the chora fari very thick
