The Bottom Line
Almaya Supermarket Al Reef Mall is a mid-size grocery shop in Deira suited to routine food runs rather than a large weekly stock-up. Reviews mention fresh vegetables and fruits, a small fish market, household essentials, cosmetics and cooked Filipino dishes. The branch is open 24 hours, which makes it useful for late-night or early-morning errands.
The Al Reef Mall location is convenient for drivers, with underground parking and elevator access. One review also notes ramps and escalators for people of determination. 95 AED in one visit.
The butcher also earned praise for professionally cutting chicken. The main caution is consistency. Several customers describe rude or inattentive cashier and management interactions, while delivery shoppers report cancellations, delays, wrong products and substitutions made without approval.
A baby formula order was especially disputed, with the customer saying the blue-lid product was replaced by gold-lid milk. Promo pricing also deserves a receipt check: one Downy item reportedly scanned at 27 AED instead of the advertised 12 AED. For the smoothest visit, check prices and product availability in person, and confirm substitutions before accepting an app order.
