The Good Stuff
Deli meals
The deli is a practical stop for salads, sandwiches, pastas and fresh food to go.
Healthy choices
One reviewer found the supermarket had more healthy options than other grocery stores.
Bakery highlight
The goat cheese and thyme croissant is specifically praised as an affordable bakery pick.
Self-checkout
Self-checkout machines can save time when you have fewer than 10 products.
Helpful response
A family described staff quickly cleaning up after their child became sick and replacing the trolley and most items.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check produce. Inspect fruit before leaving, especially melons and bananas; one watermelon looked healthy outside but was unusable inside.
Verify bills. Check the deli barcode and invoice before paying: a failed code led to another item being billed for a salad order.
Use self-checkout. For a small basket, try self-checkout; a reviewer says it saves time for purchases under 10 products.
Allow time. Allow extra time at the food counter, particularly when it is busy, as one customer waited 10 minutes.
Use parking. Drivers can use the two underground parking levels beneath Circle Mall.
Check freshness. For bakery purchases, ask when the bread or pastries were made and inspect them before taking them home.

The Bottom Line
Spinneys in Jumeirah Village Circle is a convenient, well-stocked supermarket for international groceries and fresh-food stops. You can pick up salads, roasted chicken, sandwiches and pastas from the deli, while the bakery has earned praise for its goat cheese and thyme croissant. There are also vegan and healthier choices, plus self-checkout for baskets of fewer than 10 items.
The main trade-off is price. Reviews repeatedly describe Spinneys as more expensive than nearby hypermarkets, with international brands, meat and poultry costing more. Ready food is nicely presented, but portion and service consistency can vary: one customer received only 1 1/2 meatballs in half of a 20dhs sub, while another found the food counter disorganised and waited 10 minutes.
Freshness deserves a quick check before you leave. Customers have reported overripe organic bananas, poor mangoes, a spoiled watermelon and salmon that smelled bad at home. Bakery quality has also been uneven, and there are isolated hygiene complaints involving flies in the bread cupboard and an insect and hair in food.
For a small shop, use the self-checkout; drivers have two underground parking levels beneath Circle Mall.
