Manchester Sweet Centre in Blackburn with Darwen

Very good food but extremely poor customer service. Prices are also very deep but if customer service is good then these justify but one of the worst staff. No respect for women or children and their staff is readymade for argument. If you want good food then go by keeping in mind arrogant staff and be patience to tolerate their rubbish behaviour.

The food here is good but the server especially the scruffy guy over 50 needs to go on some training course regarding food hygiene and food handling…he does he seems to use his bare hands for everything and that is absolutely disgusting. They probably get most of the trade from takeouts judging on this individual, especially.

Delicious samosas at amazing prices. Always pop in when I am in the area would highly recommend. Sweet treats are yummy too.

The samosas used to be our regular Saturday lunch treat, but our routines have changed and it's been months since we last had any. Sent the husband to pick some up yesterday - same as always, one meat, one veggie samosa each, and a tub of that ugly but amazing sauce. Phenomenal value, great taste.

Fantastic samosa's and kebabs. They are certainly amazing starters and the chutney that comes with it, tops of the taste. Very busy, but delivers satisfaction and since moving to Blackburn it has been one of my favourite spots for Starters. A must try when in town.

Visited several times over the years, love the samosas and kebabs. Never stayed in to eat always got takeout. The chutney that accompany samosas is very tasty. You definitely can’t complain over the size or fillings of the samosas they have plenty in and are a generous size. They also do various sweets but I’ve never tried them. A lot of people I know visit here and would definitely recommend.

This place has got to be one of the oldest food places I know. I like the fact that they still only concentrate on there samosas and kebabs. They still have that watery chutney with the onions. I like the fact that there prices are still reasonable even though they have expanded the business over the years.

This place is the business! Both meat and veg samosas are to die for. The chutney or (mint sauce) is awesome too!!

Absolutely disgusting place. We brought samosas and had a ladies hair in it and men work there. After a few weeks we brought them again and realised there was a dead fly in it! Such an off put will NEVER go back there again! Just a waste of money now.

I love MSC it has the best samosas and love love love the amazing chili chicken. I also wish that you had a chance to go there and see for yourselves

Best value quality Samosa both veg and meat served with onion sauce .Large tasty almost always freshly cooke and still warm when served,. very reasonably priced .Well frequented by the local community . Only problem there is not much parking available . A large selection of Asian sweets are also available and look very appetising but as I have diabetics in the family have had to resist them Food purchased can be eaten inside the shop at purpose built counters

I've been eating from Manchester Sweet Centre for as long as I can remember. Unfortunately I'm not too keen on their Meat Samosas (I normally only eat Meat and hardly ever Veg) but their Vegetable Samosas are amazing. They're a great size, great price, you always need more than one, and the chutney with the onions goes perfectly with it. Manchester Sweet Centre is always busy and their Samosas are always brought out fresh and by the load. Their Seekh Kebabs are decent too but are good with a couple of Samosas. As a Sweet Centre, their sweets (mithai) are nice to try out! Service has always been good and so has the food. The place has kept a simple modest menu and has been attracting large custom for many years. Sitting down on a high stool chair with friends eating samosas on a place with a spoon and a cold glass of water, is part of the experience. Or you can take away too! For veg samosas, I would always recommend Manchester Sweet Centre.

Nice place with authentic desi desserts and also western incfluenced shakes and waffles a nice place for the whole family

Ordered a kebab, meat and veg samosa All served in a plate with onions and sauce. Meat samosa was fully loaded as was the vegetable one. Kebab was tasty and spicy All good....a few hours later...got an upset tummy...checked the 'Scores on the Doors' for their food hygiene rating...1!! These scores are based on factors such as kitchen cleanliness, cooking methods and food management All restaurants and takeaways should be made to display their food hygiene scores by law!

The veg samosa's are awesome, however i always end up ill if i have the meat ones or their kebab's, probably an issue with the meat might be something that needs looking into.

cheap place, unfortunately it has gone right down hill, rumours of dodgy meat, they have been closed down before, poor hygiene, this time was no different, lost pride in the place, were as before when i used to go there in the 70's and 80' and the place was cleaner and the service so much better

The samosas at Manchester Sweet Centre are the best this side of town absolutely amazing both vegetable and meet all available at a cost of 60p each and kebabs are also available with sweetmeats however the samosas go well with the chutney that is offered here it is an amazing kind of chutney with white vinegar onions and And a hint of colmans mint sauce. and some secret ingredient but believe me you must try this once if you try it once I guarantee you Will try this twice. Go on be a devil grab a Samosa from Manchester Sweet. Centre or be square.

Best samosas by far! Been eating from here from a young age and haven't stopped! Ideal price and good variety.

Samosas? Kebabs? Nobody can beat them on this front, especially the sauce that comes with it. I can literally drink the stuff. It's a no frills place and more for take away. Not tried the sweet stuff so can't comment.

Relación calidad-precio magnífica samosa de verduras, sabor y textura. No visita a menudo como me gustaría comprar una docena de bt mínimo para compensar. . (la mayoría de los cuales han ido a la vez que caliente la circunvalación. .

Since kids we all have ate and still eat from Manchester Sweet centre in Blackburn. The veg samosas and sheekh kebabs are very famous. The samosas have always had there unique flavour and taste. Even after passing of the owner the recipe has still remained the same.

Been coming here for years and weather it's for a family gathering or just a snack the food is always spot on and reasonably priced. The veg somosas and kebabs are our favourites

Since I was taken here by a friend last year I have never bought samosas from anywhere else. Open every day and all freshly made.

Food here is the best for a quick meal. Samosas the best. Sweats brilliant. There is always a queue which only speaks for itself.

Probably the best samosas you could ever eat at a very good price, I've even tried some of their Asian sweets and they are mind blowingly good, a definite must

You can't come to Blackburn and not visit Manchester sweet centre for the samosas and kebabs. It is very tasty. More for taking away. There is a bar table and seats but it's more for taking away. A lot of people stop by for samosas on the go and it HAS to be with the chutney. Can't be without or you'll miss out on the flavours it has to offer. Keep up the good work

Cheap, good quality, friendly staff, fresh, tasty, variety to choose from. What more can you ask for. Chutney is the BEST. So delicious. We go here atleast 3-4 times a week. Seriously!

Excellent tasty Samosa, just love it each time I have it. Especially like the vegetarian one. Staff are always very helpful.

The best samosas in the world! My preference is the veg but the meat are equally as good. Avoid Friday lunchtime if you are in a rush as this shop gets so very busy. A true sign of good food.

Been visiting this place over and over for many years, every time I go there with my friends I end up regretting going inside this Unhygienic food shop, the food isn't bad it's the staff who are so scruffily dressed, with tonnes of dirt all over their clothes! They are disgusting! they never seem to wash their clothes that's how filthy they always appear, I'm surprised no-one else has made any comments on TripAdvisor about their cleanliness! Whats even worse is that they serve food using their bare hands, handling and passing food around and at the same time with the very same hands, handling cash and touching the till buttons, scratching their face, wiping hands on the back of their jeans, and repeating. I've never seen such disgusting business practice, if they don't start wearing gloves when food-serving, I for 1 ain't going back in that dirty place ever again. And watch out for the guy with dirty long beard serving food, he needs a good bath to clean himself out.

The onion chutney is second to none. The meat samosa compliments it perfectly. The samosas are the best I have tasted. They are not too bland, neither taste like a curry. This place is a gem in Blackburn. I would prefer more seating and a restaurant style atmosphere because the samosas are delicious. Keep up the good work boys.

The best samosas in blackburn,always send my hubby here when I'm having a curry nite... you can't beat them

A simple place that does sweets and savouries.I've been visiting this place since 25yrs they do the best samosas I've ever tasted. The sauce that comes with it is awesome. They have a few bar stools to eat in gets really busy at lunch times and on the weekend. I always take the take out option and then samosas go down a treat always.

This place needs no reviews it's just too good...but I have to say more so I'm just gonna say it's amazing

Best Samosas and Chutney combination in town.Cant beat it. Especially the Veg ones.I do not get much else from here so cant comment on all that

We visited from Wirral on a mid week and was so excited to try the Gluten free menu. So much choice and in the end we chose salt and pepper spare ribs, sweet sour chicken with the gluten free batter and spicy vermicelli noodles. Loved the gluten free prawn crackers and the dipping sauces which you can buy at Sainsburys, Waitrose and Holland and Barrett. Everything was delicious, service was so friendly and caring. I will be recommending to all my friends and coming back for my birthday. Thank you.

The food is a lot better than it looks. The samosas (veg and meat) are great. Would recommend to anyone.

I go here might be one a week and the food and service are spot on its not the best for parking but the food makes up for it.

Absolutely the best samosas around. I'm a meat eater but when I come here I always pick veg samosas there absolutely gorgeous. Don't get me wrong I love the meat samosas from here but there is just something about the veg ones. The kebabs are amazing also and well the onion sauce they give well that is something else I could drink that straight from the tub. Recommend to anyone

If you like traditional south Asian food this is the place to come . It's not the most attractive place but the food is fab and cheap and delivers the best samosas I've ever had along with kebab .There is always a small que and the food I've tried is excellent

This is a simple place which has been around for ages. In terms of food, it serves onion bhabis, kebabs and veg and meat samosas. The sauce that comes with it is to die for!Aside from this it serves Indian sweets.I usually do take out as only men eat on stools and it's not very classy.That said, I've not tasted samosas better anywhere!

Been going for 26 years now it's never changed great value and good food. Usual Samosas, kebab and Indian street food here in Blackburn.

Without a doubt the best place for samosas! A quick tasty tea time or lunch treat that is inexpensive! They also do other things like kebabs and jalebi or mithai (indian sweets) but the veg samosa are the one thing you have to get! I am a returning customer and will definitely be going again.

Hands down the best veg samosas I have ever had - probably the best in the country. Can't stop eating them with the delicious chutney. Queues are very long sometimes, best to order in advance.They also do other snacks/sweets, but in all honesty, they are known best for their samosas.

This is an Indian/Pakistani sweet centre which makes the best veg samosas accompanied by the most unusual watery chutney with a distinct flavour of tamarind. At the time of writing, veg samosas are 60p each and a couple will fill you. The FSA food hygene rating is 5/5. The shop is always busy as a testament to its local popularity. The service is quick and friendly. If you are ever passing through Blackburn and need a snack, this is the place.

Regular visits veg samosa from here are top the chutney is so good cant beat it. Huge thumps up guys, nice friendly service also serves kebabs and sweets

A family favourite for many years- we always get our samosas from here, and you get a lovely chutney from here to accompany it.The service is fast and efficient- the also do lovely sweets.Definitely, a family favourite- never leave blackburn without a visit here.

absolute amazing veg samosa's and rasmalai.ideal for a quick snack or light lunch.would visit again.a+++++++

After a morning skating we were in need of some lunch and this place definitely hit the spot. The shop front is a bit run down but don't let that put you off. Myself husband and toddler were all given a warm welcome. We had meat samosa, veg samosa and a meat kebab with mystery sauce and the toddler had a veg samosa. Again they aren't going to win any awards for presentation but so what. The food was so tasty, plenty of spices and the mystery sauce has a good kick to it and it was good to have a kebab that wasn't dripping in grease! That was all three of us fed (including drinks) for less than a tenner.I've always been intrigued by the Indian sweets when weve driven past so thought we'd get some to take home. Not having the foggiest what half of them are the bloke running the shop was more than happy to pick a selection out for us. And oh my word, they were delicious. Gulab Juman (a personal favourite), some kind of creamy, custardpy, coconuty, cake jelly square and a square of what tasted like carrot and cardamon. Will definitely be going back to try some of the other stuff!

We visit quite regular. I'm always a meat samosa kinda gal. But I always get veg samosa from here cause there amazing the chutney is so good cant beat it. Huge thumps up guys.

Called in on Friday 11:30 before the Lunchtime rush.(Prayers begin at 13:00 hours)I purchased the Lamb Kababs and a couple of Meat Samosas with aportion of Chutney.I was not let down by the service or the really nice food.It can get rather packed just before Friday prayers so ensure you are an early bird.

Love the veg samosas from here with the chutney. Regularly visit once a week. Can't fault it! Long queues at times diet popularity!

I absolutely love the vegetable samosas with the chutney. I found the kebabs quite dry and hard. Definitely not the best I've tasted. The customer service is awful. They don't smile, don't say please or thank you. I only go in when I get an absolute craving for the veg samosas, other than that I avoid the place due to the terrible customer service.

Excellent veg samosas. Buy two for a hearty lunchtime treat. A bargain at only 60p each. Delicious with the free relish they give

I only been here for the samosa's. The so called chutney is just water along with onions and mint from a jar. The vegetable samosa's don't contain enough variety of vegetable's, all you get is green pea's and potatoes along with spices. Meat samosa is average and very dry.

Meat samosas are very dry and as for the vegetable samosas mainly just potatoes and green peas along with spices. Having said that - they are the best in blackburn and well worth a visit.

Sizes of samosas n kebabs have shrunk for sure n im the same size so its not me , usually cold n heated in their commercial microwave, chutney is watered down , make sure you get one more to make up for the downsize.. Have to agree, they taste great if fresh but usually you wont get those unless lucky. Been getting the samosas from here for over 20 years but going off them for the readins mentioned above.

The Samosas are brilliant when they are fresh; with the chutney. Most of the time I have been they cook the food 2-3 hours before and the staff are quite arrogant and rude.

This is a great place, with a brilliant location. The best thing here is the samosas namely the vegetable samosas with their signature onion chutney is scrumptious enough to put my cravings to rest. The only issue I have, and it's very minor is the kebabs. However I raised this issue with a member of staff and it was dealt with. Overall an excellent place to get a quick bite to eat when you're on the go,

The Sweet Centre is a time honoured samosa lunch tradition here in town. Also a brill take away for samosas & sweets, join the queue! Well hey they tell me a review has to be at least 500 characters long - all I'd say is I've been eating samosas there over 20 years, taking away from there since my lad started having football parties & playing for a proper team, & exporting the sweets to France, Austria, Germany, Scotland & Carlisle for decades. have I written enough? NO!WELL A PLACE AS GOOD AS THIS SHOULDN"T NEED AS MANY WORDS AS THIS, YOU WANT THE BEST, COME HERE. IF YOU CAN'T PARK UP READILY IT'S BECAUSE THE TAKEAWAY QUEUE IS SO LONG!

Love the samosas both meat and veg, and the kebabs, but the best is the Chutney with it. Firm favourite for buying samosas.

Best foodGreat serviceAffordableQualityLate timingsGreat hot food, really nice and tasty, compared to a lot of places. Food is already made really quickly which is something that i wanted and look for in a shop

Have been buying from here since the '70's - and never been disappointed; all the foods are fresh and tasty; love the samosas when just out of the ovens, don't miss the Manchester Sweet Centre- you will regret it

The best in blackburn for samosas. Kebabs are really nice too. Perfect for snacks or lunch. Priced perfectly. Chutney is beautiful. Must try. Mainly takeaway. Alot if asain sweets available too. Bit too sweet for me but still amazing.

Impossible to beat for the taste and texture of the samosas, as for the chutney, simply the best!!!!We have been eating here for the last 20+ years, and never had a bad experience.Very strongly recommend if you have a taste for nice samosas!!

These could be the best samosas in the world haha, they are very good I had both a meat and a veg and could not fault them, beautiful.

Excellent value samozas (meat or veg) pakora and kebabs. Huge selection of asian sweets if you've room left.

I have loved these samosas since I was a very small child. Now I live out of town, I miss them like I miss my parents. I always associate them with my dad coming home late with a big bag of samosas and chutney and everyone would gather round and bagsie the potato ones. I take a big bag of them home now and me and my partner eat nothing but samosas for 2 days. Seriously comforting food. The actual place looks awful but that's ok because they are cheap and the service is quick.

The food was so nice it made me precum. The chutney is so so sexy i drank it with my protein shake mmm

This place specialises in samosas both meat and veg. People come far a field for these divine samosas. The chutney contains a secret ingredient and something I have never tasted before. The samosas are 60p each and are the best I've tasted in the Uk

mm was great for our first time it was busy wen we went people getting there orders in food is full of flavour to
