The Bottom Line
Adil Supermarket in Oud Metha is mainly worth considering when you need Indian groceries rather than a standard supermarket shop. Reviews point to a broad selection of Indian products, including spices, dals, pickles, grains, packaged foods, and different types of atta. Some customers specifically come for chakki fresh atta, while others mention puja items, herbs for hawan and Ayurvedic use, and brands such as Haldiram, Amul, Verka, Bikanerwala and Patanjali.
The shop is a compact, community-style store rather than a spacious modern supermarket. That makes it convenient for finding specialist Indian ingredients, but the layout can feel crowded, and aisle signs and shelf prices are not always clear. Staff reviews are mixed: several customers describe friendly assistance, while others report unhelpful service at the counter or difficulty getting change.
Bring smaller cash if possible, and check packaged dry goods before leaving; one customer found fungus in two sealed peanut packets. Prices are often described as reasonable for Indian products, though some everyday items cost more than in larger supermarkets. Parking is reported as easy at this branch, with one review saying it is usually available in front of the shop.
Frozen Haldirams samosas are another practical find for baking at home.
