The Bottom Line
Baqer Mohebi Supermarket in Hor Al Anz is mainly about stretching your dirhams. Shoppers come for everyday groceries, a changing 1 AED section and the unusually large chocolate selection. The bargain shelves have included biscuits, chips, soap, imported items and even branded chocolates, while the wider store covers daily needs and fresh vegetables.
It is also roughly a two-minute walk from Qiyadah Metro Station. The 1 AED area is the main attraction, but it needs a little judgement. Reviews explain that many products are discounted because they are nearing expiry—sometimes with only about a week or a month left—and one customer reported finding expired goods there.
Buy only what you will use quickly, and check every date before paying. The chocolate bargains can work well for taking treats to family abroad, but they are less suitable for long-term storage or gifting without checking dates. Expect narrow, crowded aisles, especially in the evening, and difficult parking at peak times.
Going before 5pm may make the visit easier. Service feedback is mixed, with complaints about security and cashier interactions, plus a report of a delivery delay and incorrect change. Check your receipt and change at checkout.
