Kawadi Sri Lankan Minimarket

During a business trip in Yorkshire, I happened to visit this outstanding off-licence shop, Kawadi Sri Lankan Minimarket on Bradford Road in Batley, and it quickly became my go-to destination for authentic Sri Lankan and other South Asian groceries during my stay. The store boasts a rich selection—from fresh curry leaves and spices to frozen seafood straight from Sri Lanka, alongside well-loved brands like Dilmah tea. It truly captures the essence of home for expats and food lovers alike. What stands out most is the friendliness and knowledge of the staff. They're always ready to help you find specific ingredients or share cooking tips sometimes. Whether you're craving hoppers, authentic spices, frozen fish, or a nostalgic cup of Sri Lankan tea, Kawadi delivers on both variety and warmth. If you're in West Yorkshire, it's a must-visit.

My go-to shop for Sri Lankan grocery and bakery items, street food, etc. Recently visited to buy some bakery items and they were delicious. The store is tidy and pleasant. I will recommend the store to anyone who likes to buy Srilankan products around Leeds.

I ordered Sri Lankan new year sweet for the first time from Kawadi and they delivered even without me making the payment. The sweet were super tasty and was delivered in good quality. Happy to recommend to anyone.

Visited this newly opened family owned store and was pleasantly surprised by a very warm and friendly Sri Lankan welcome. …
