The Good Stuff
Ready food
Fresh sandwiches and hot food are repeatedly described as affordable options when you want something quick rather than a full grocery shop.
Dubai sweets
Dubai sweets are mentioned as reasonably priced souvenir purchases, especially convenient for nearby hotel stays.
Helpful assistance
A staff member carried heavy shopping bags to a nearby hotel room, including for a group travelling with a disabled mother.
Meat counter
The meat section can cut meat to your requested specification, a useful detail for planned home cooking.
Promotions
Customers mention affordable products alongside promotional items and discounts, helping regular shoppers keep costs manageable.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check orders. If ordering delivery, check every item and substitution on arrival; reviews report cheaper replacements, missing goods and wrong products.
Avoid rush. Visit the bakery outside the evening rush if you need counter service, as one customer waited 15 minutes without assistance.
Check dates. Inspect expiry dates before paying, especially on chilled goods and pre-packed items, given reports of expired Laban and cheese-counter products.
Ask for cuts. For home cooking, ask at the meat section about the cut you need; a review says the counter cuts meat on request.
Try Karak. Look for the Karak machine by the entrance; reviewers specifically mention it as a convenient drink stop during a snack run.
Late shopping. The supermarket has been described as open 24/7, which can help if you prefer shopping outside peak times.

Some customers found expired or near-expiry products, including Laban and packed items at the cheese counter.

The Bottom Line
Al Maya Supermarket in Trade Centre is geared to everyday shopping, with a broad selection of international goods in a clean, organized store. It is also handy for quick food: reviews call out fresh sandwiches, hot food items and Dubai sweets, the latter being a practical souvenir buy for people staying nearby. The entrance has a Karak tea machine, and the meat section can cut meat to your request.
Customers also mention affordable pricing, promotions and discounts. One review says parking has consistently been available during the reviewer’s usual visiting times, while another describes the supermarket as open 24/7. Service is generally a strength in the shop itself.
Several customers describe staff as warm and helpful, including one staff member who carried heavy bags to a nearby hotel room. The experience is not completely consistent, though: some reviews mention rude checkout interactions, unattended bakery service and poor date control, including expired Laban. Be more cautious with delivery orders.
Customers report orders taking over two hours, missing or wrong items, unannounced cheaper substitutions and difficulty reaching the store for corrections. For a reliable quick visit, shopping in person and checking expiry dates may be wiser than relying on delivery.
