The Good Stuff
Fresh flour
Chakki wheat flour is a standout, with one review describing it as fresh and made daily.
Regional finds
The range includes harder-to-find Maharashtrian products, including childhood favourites and household items.
Ritual supplies
The store carries puja and Hindu ritual items alongside groceries, useful around festivals and fasting periods.
Metro access
The branch is reported to be about a five-minute walk from the Mall of the Emirates metro station.
Helpful staff
Several reviews mention staff helping shoppers locate items quickly, which is useful in the compact, product-filled shop.
In-store milling
You can bring your own grain mix and have it ground in the store’s mill.
Tips for a Better Visit
Use MOE parking. If parking nearby is difficult, use Mall of the Emirates parking: one review says it offers four free hours and is a 5–8 minute walk away.
Check hours. Avoid an afternoon errand without checking first, as a review reports a 2–4:30 closing break.
Ask about milling. If you want a custom grain blend, ask about the in-store mill rather than buying only pre-ground flour.
Seek regional items. For Maharashtrian groceries or festival foods, browse beyond standard pantry staples; reviewers say the range includes hard-to-find items.
Ask for help. Because the branch is small and products can require some searching, ask staff to point you to a specific item.

The Bottom Line
Adil Supermarket in Al Barsha is a compact specialist grocery shop rather than a broad hypermarket. It is particularly useful for Indian pantry shopping: reviewers mention spices, rice, lentils, flours, pickles and packaged snacks, including products that can be difficult to find at Nesto, Lulu or other regular supermarkets. Fresh chakki wheat flour is a recurring draw, and the shop also has a mill for grinding a personal mix of grains.
The selection goes beyond everyday staples. Shoppers mention Maharashtrian products, Manglorean items, puja and Hindu ritual supplies, fasting foods, and regional treats such as tilgul ladu. Haldiram’s kachoris and samosas, Kissan Jam and pickles also appear in the reviews, making this a useful stop when you are looking for a particular Indian brand or childhood favourite rather than a generic substitute.
The branch is smaller than the Karama location, so some everyday choices may be limited. Parking is the main recurring frustration, while one review reports a 2–4:30 afternoon closure; check before making a special trip. On the plus side, it is described as a short walk from the Mall of the Emirates metro station, and MOE parking was suggested as a practical workaround.
Prices are viewed as reasonable by some shoppers but high or slightly above other Indian stores by others.
