The Good Stuff
Chilled packing
One customer received fresh produce in a chilled, well-designed package that was also convenient for storage.
Easy app
The app was described as detailed and user-friendly, which makes browsing and placing an order straightforward.
Fresh juices
Long-term customers have specifically liked the watermelon and pomegranate juices when they were fresh.
Fast support
At least one fruit-basket order was delivered quickly and resolved helpfully by customer support.
Tips for a Better Visit
Inspect produce. Check sliced fruit and vegetables as soon as they arrive; reviews describe sour watermelon, mold and strong smells despite current dates.
Avoid tight timing. Do not rely on a delivery for a party or traveller; one advance charcuterie-board order arrived over three hours late without notice.
Check quantities. Compare the delivered order with your receipt before the driver leaves, since customers have reported missing water, dates and whole orders.
Verify varieties. For imported or premium produce, confirm the variety and origin on arrival; one customer received local blueberries and different grapes.
Use quickly. Treat smoothies as same-day products: one review says they tasted good on packaging day but became fizzy by the second day.

The Bottom Line
Barakat Vegetables & Fruits Co. in Nad Al Hamar caters to online grocery shoppers looking for fruit baskets, fresh juices, smoothies, cut fruit and vegetables. Earlier reviews describe attractive 5kg baskets, chilled packaging and produce that stayed fresh for several days.
The app is also called detailed and user-friendly, so placing an order is relatively simple. The picture is now uneven. Recent customers report spoiled or sour sliced watermelon, moldy vegetables, old fruit and juice that became fizzy or tasted spoiled.
A baby-spinach order was reportedly replaced with ordinary spinach, while another customer received local blueberries instead of the Peruvian variety ordered. These are important concerns if you are buying ready-to-eat produce or premium imported fruit. Delivery is the bigger practical risk.
Reviews mention missed windows, orders arriving hours late, incomplete deliveries and even cancellations after several days of waiting. A charcuterie board costing nearly AED 400 arrived more than three hours late for an event, with only AED 20 refunded. Customer support has often been hard to reach, although one fruit-basket order received fast delivery and helpful issue resolution.
Check every item immediately and avoid using the service for time-critical gifts or events.
