Shaikh Brothers — Restaurant in Assam

Yet another overhyped place in guwahati. This place is probably the second bakery in entire India.They used to supply bakery products to the british back in the days. The founder of this place hailed from Dhaka (undivided India) and were into constuction business during the british era.

Nowadays this place is mostly famous among the muslim community of Guwahati. This place sticks to its old heritage making their product in the old fashioned way..using exceptional amounts of Dalda (margarine) and maida. Their puffs are dripping in Dalda that could almost give you a heart attack. The pastries are just normal cakes covered with layers of whipped cream...not sponge at all. The taste is very average. You can find much better products at cheaper price nowadays around Guwahati.

We have been g getting snacks n cookies from this plc &I have been drinking coffee with my husband every morning n have 1 or 2 pc of cookies which we pay ..but today suddenly that same employee was arguing with me that he can’t give n hv never given ,saying that I shud buy 100 grms…check your cctv footage ur guys don’t even remember regular customers face ,then why the hell was he giving me everyday n charging me .. and we just need 1/2 pc cookies to hv with coffee. normal people don’t eat 100 grms of cookies with one cup of coffee ..And one more lady was asking fr xtra empty cup to the person who was serving coffee ..he rudely told her that he can’t give… How can such a reputed n old bakery hv such rude staffs without any manners…how much it will costs u all to just give one xtra empty cup?1/2₹ ?she was even saying she will pay it…that lady was aged n very old regular customer…BUT YOUR RUDE ILLITERATE EMPLOYEES...Teach them some...

John Henry Kerr, the then governor of Assam, wrote in his diary, “Today there has been no supply of bread from the Gohati bakery as the road is under repair. Local bread is too hard and sticky — Gohati bread is soft,” (Shillong, November 24, 1923). Another government file refers to a “sanction of Rs 380 for His Excellency’s X-mas party for which bread, biscuits and cakes are to be ordered with Gauhati Bakery immediately with an instruction that all materials should reach the Governor House by midday, preferably by 12 noon”.

During Jawaharlal Nehru’s visits to Guwahati, cheese straw from this bakery was invariably served on Nehru’s breakfast table as he had a liking for it. Indira Gandhi’s Z-category security personnel kept standing by the oven when bread meant for the former Prime Minister was being baked and packed in this very bakery. By this time the reader must have guessed which bakery I am referring to. It’s M/s Shaikh Brothers of...
