This shop conned us into buying normal spices at exorbitant prices. A normal banana chips packet (250 gms) which is available at 125 rp outside was sold to us at 250 rp. We paid 3600 rp in total for only few things. Won't recommend this place.
Cost is high....we can have differnt spices here.... Must go and buy....very tasty and quality spices available here
We entered into a spice shop called the ‘All Spices Market’ which was housed in an old dilapidated building. We climbed up a narrow and steep staircase to the first floor where the shop was located. They had a wide array of spices including many qualities of whole black and white peppers, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, dried red chillies, nutmeg, cardamom, cloves, bay-leaf, star anise, herbs, tea and coffee powders and different dry fruits, as well as ready to eat fried banana and tapioca chips. While we were looking at our shopping list the lady attendants kept giving us samples of various herbal teas and coffee to taste. In a sense they were distracting our attention from the spices and by accepting their samples they were making us obligated to buy something. Ultimately we did buy many items which were not even on our list. My suggestion if you visit the spice market is to go with a shopping list and a rough idea of it’s price, so that you know beforehand whether you are getting your value for money or are being conned into buying.
One of the oldest spice markets housed in a heritage building run by womens co-op. Extremely tourist friendly, courteous sales pitch by the women complete with tasters for coffee and tea, but the prices are a little on the higher side.
Proper spice Market with authentic Kerala spices.
It has got a big ginger warehouse here which carries export trades.
The spices for sale are kinda costly but authentic!
Do try the Herbal Coffee which they give off as a sample. Buying it won't be a wrong choice!
They've got various home made ready mixes like Fish Curry masalas, and all.

The " All Spice market" is one of the finest spice shops in spice market. It is a 200-250 meters from the Jew Lane where most of the spices outlets are there. This shop is managed by women's co-operative group. They are very polite. They will offer you like ginger tea with honey, green tea once you enter the shop. It is a old shop.
GINGER SPICE MARKET - Now while this is one of the oldest spice markets in Fort Kochi, keep in mind that there are other spice shops in the vicinity for you to choose from and compare both product and price. I bought a bar of saffron-scented soap for 100 Rupees (less than 2 USD) which I found to be a tad pricey, even for tourists. We were also helped to a free sampling of ginger tea and ginger candies (prior to my purchase).
