Virdee Stores
49 Arthur Street
Virdee Stores is an independent retail shop on Arthur Street in Gravesend. Although listed under the convenience-store category, several directories describe it specifically as a traditional Indian sweet shop, selling Indian sweets and savouries such as barfi, jalebi, pera and chaat items alongside general grocery goods. It appears to be a long-standing family-run independent rather than part of a chain.
It holds a Food Standards Agency hygiene rating with 'Very good' scores for hygienic food handling and food-safety management at its December 2025 inspection, registered under 'Retailers - other'. Mainstream review platforms carry little verified feedback - its Yelp page is unclaimed with no recommended reviews - so robust review sentiment is limited.
