The International Shop

I always enjoy shopping here and it's great value They have all the things that you can't find anywhere else plus a few things I've never heard of to try and stretch me further when cooking. It is spread over two floors and had spices,, tins, fish, meat, all the accessories for Indian and Asian food and still there are more packets upon packets. It is like the potential sweet ship when you.were young only this time it's food. Go in and have a wander and I guarantee you'll buy something. The larger packets of spices and rice are a fraction of the cost of buying tiny packets in a supermarket plus I love the large bunches of coriander

My favourite place in town.

If you're a home cook, this is the place to go. They have produce representing cuisines from all over the world, from Thailand to Mexico and from Eastern Europe to The Caribbean. The selection is absolutely incredible and I find what I need 99% of the time, it's only the most obscure ingredients that you miss out on, and the fresh produce can sell out quickly.

It's a very small, tightly packed shop so it can be hard to manoeuvre sometimes, but for me that's part of its charm. The staff are always lovely and will help find what you need.

Great selection, super helpful if you can't find something, and getting more in every time I go. Which is often.

My favourite store to buy all things Asian!!!... Wide variety of food produce from all corners of the world!!!...

Amazing shop - just moved into the area and was hoping to find somewhere for Japanese, Korean and Indian ingredients. Quite an unassuming-looking place from the outside, but it's got a basement floor too. Both floors are absolutely packed with stuff that's not always easy to find otherwise. Highly recommended!

Could have easily been called Asian Aladin's cave. Packed full with products and ingredients from all over Asia. Worth a visit to discover the endless range.

They had everything I needed to make Indian food! Thank you!

My favourite food shop in Tunbridge Wells, they have a wonderful selection of food from around the world at beautifully reasonable prices.

Great range of products, especially from the Far East and Africa.
If you are lioking for ingredients for all styles of Asian food, this is the place to go.

Really an excellent go-to for a huge range of reasonably priced (considering shipping costs) products, most of which are not only better quality but lower-priced than supermarket equivalents.

Highlights:
One of the only places where fresh curry leaves are sold.
The frozen samosas downstairs are to die for.
The spices, and produce (e.g. tamarind) have always been excellent.
The staff have always been helpful.

Only issue can be parking, but if you get lucky you can park on the street outside. Never had a bad experience there.

Fresh mangoes - fat, red and delicious. Kohl rabi - haven't found this anywhere else. Other fresh fruits/veg/spices/flour, things I don't even recognise. Great little shop, esp if you like to cook Asian food; they have everything you'll need.

Brilliant shop with hidden depths! Ground floor is primarily Indian ingredients plus a massive wall of dried herbs and spices, and fresh fruit and veg. Downstairs has freezers full of delights from all around the world - I bought gyoza which were amazing - plus more ingredients from Japan, China, Africa and more. Made myself agadashi tofu from the stock and mirin I bought, pictured with the gyoza!

One of my all time favourite shops. They stock everything and although you need a guide to help find practically anything, the staff are very helpful and quick. Great value products in larger quantities than supermarkets. Extensive frozen foods section too.

Is there anything this place doesn't sell? An Aladdin's cave of authentic ingredients from every asian cuisine and more. Thankfully very helpful if you can't find what you want. So lucky to have this in T W.

Proactive lovely staff. All ingredients available including galangal. I needed help finding some as it was my first time, on first sweep I did not notice that there was a downstairs for customers as well.

If you like Asian food, they have everything you could want. Sensible sized packs of spices instead of those stupid little bottles that supermarkets sell. Vast range of the real stuff.

Great store to stock up on those hard to source exotic foods and spices that are just not found in any of the main supermarkets. Wide range of fresh, dried, tinned foods plus condiments, herbs, spices from all four corners of the world.

Amazing collection of indian foods, spices,drinks etc you name it .....love that you could ask them to bring your choice of stuff and collect it when available. Had thumbs up the other day after almost 2 years. 😁

The best place in Tunbridge Wells for Asian ingredients. Not just Indian, but Japanese, Korean, Indonesian... you name it. The shop seems very small but it's crammed full of stock - and don't forget to check out the basement.

Greta variety of options. I get my Chapagetti fix here and get tteokbokki for meals here. Fun drinks at the front. Such a nice shop.
