My India’s Grocery

You drive up and down US 287, you see this shop out the corner of your eye. You ask yourself: should I pick up some Indian things there? I can answer that question for you: probably not. Small and disorganized, the only good selection was spices and pulses. It was not clean, there were full, half-​full, and empty boxes everywhere, some of the cluttering the aisles. The only staff was a 14-​year-​old at the till, which required him to pick from a menu of possible items after he scanned the things you bought. This place is not ready. Go a few miles further to Lafayette and check out the excellent Krishna Groceries.

This is a wonderful place to get spices in bulk (for far less than King Soopers would charge), and the people are very friendly and helpful. Also, a great place to buy Naan.

We regularly buy (or used to!) Rotiland Roti’s from My India’s (
) in Broomfield.
We understand that Rotiland is currently running a promotion where it is selling a pack of rotis for $ 2.79. However, this retailer is not passing on this promotion price to it’s consumers and is infact putting a sticker with «New» written on it, over the special promotion pricing sticker. It’s still selling these packs of rotis for $ 3.49.
When I confronted the retailer and showed him the actual price under the «New» sticker which he has put there to hide the actual price, he refused to sell me the rotis at that price. And infact, he was rude enough to tell me that if I am not happy, I am more than welcome to go to some other grocery store!
After this incident, I called up a few Indian grocery stores in Denver metro area and they all are carrying the Rotiland roti’s at the special promotion price of $ 2.79 as is advertised on the pack.
So beware, as I am not sure what all other products he is selling at a higher price over the actual retail price!!!
And, the store looks nothing like it is shown in the pictures on the web! It is filthy, prices are not marked properly, none of the isles is marked and some items are expired. So beware!

Compared to other Indian grocery stores in the metro area, this one is quite good. The variety of products is fairly comprehensive, and the owner will tell you when he expects a product to be in stock if he’s currently out.
In the past, the store was often pretty poorly organized, but the owner was running the place by himself; now, his family is here, and with their help, he’s been able to organize and clean up. Needless to say, the place looks much better.
Overall, this place is a great resource to have in Broomfield! I recommend it.

The staff was exceptionally helpful, and the Bollywood movie playing in the background was the perfect backdrop. I didn’t notice that it was unclean, and it was pretty well organized. I’d recommend this store to others, especially if you’re new to Indian cooking.

Cleanliness must be relative, because this place is not «clean and organized» in my books. Sure the front of the store is clean, but for every yard you travel, the store gets messier. I purchased something from the back freezer case (close to the back room) and I couldn’t help noticing how filthy it was. Having a messy store may go OK in big cities, but people, this is Colorado, we like things clean.
Besides that, the prices are better than Krishna Grocery for identical items and the customer service is exceptional. A man from Pakistan manages the place, and he is very knowledgeable and is available to answer questions you may have. It’s a great store to go to if you are new to Indian food and need a helping hand.
Again, I have the same recommendation I had for Krishna Grocery. Give the store a fresh coat of paint, mop the floors, wipe down the shelves, heck, hire a feng shui consultant to breathe new life. People spend a lot more money in pleasant surroundings. Why do you think they play feel good music in grocery stores?

Clean, organized, simple, well-​stocked Indian grocery store. They’ve got a section for fresh veggies (you can get fenugreek and krailay here too!), rice/​atta, every spice/​lentils you could need/​want, an Indian video rental program, but they are limited on their overall selection of brands (minus 1*: they don’t carry the Ashoka or the Surati label; it’s not like the Indian Grocery stores I have seen in Los Angeles or Toronto, but then again those cities have a larger South Asian populace and hence the demand for variety). High score for their customer service — helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and I even had my groceries carried out for me (without me asking!). Maybe, it was because I spent so much? Maybe, coz unlike Los Angeles or Toronto, the Indian merchandise here was kinda pricey, but still within reason I guess. I’ll definetely be back here to stock my kitchen with Indian goods.
