The compact shop covers most routine grocery needs, even if it does not match a hypermarket’s range.
Customers specifically mention fresh vegetables and fish, alongside dedicated meat and dry-fruit sections.
A customer found the named Pyary turmeric soap here after searching several well-known shops.
Reviews say purchases can be delivered to your home or even brought to your car.
One review says the supermarket stays open until 1 am, giving late-night shoppers extra flexibility.
Some customers describe the prices as competitive or reasonable for day-to-day shopping.
Allow time. For delivery, allow substantially more than 20 minutes or shop in person; a 2025 review reported the order was forgotten.
Clarify deposits. Before accepting a 5-gallon water delivery, confirm the bottle-deposit refund terms; one customer reported paying AED15.5 and not getting it back.
Shop earlier. If visiting late, arrive before the final hour because staff may already be preparing to close.
Ask for Pyary. If you need Pyary turmeric soap, ask in store: one shopper found it here after searching many famous shops.
Expect compact. Use it for essentials and quick top-ups, but expect less choice than at a large supermarket or hypermarket.

The Bottom Line
Talal Supermarket is a compact local grocery in the quiet neighbourhood of Al Hudaiba, useful for everyday top-ups rather than a sprawling hypermarket shop. Reviews mention most essential items, fresh vegetables and fish, and dedicated sections for meat and dry fruits. One shopper also found Pyary (Turmeric) soap here after looking through several famous shops.
The store can deliver purchases to your home or car, which is handy for heavier groceries, and one review describes it as serving residents of Hudaiba, Jaffiliya and Satwa. Hours have been reported as extending to 1 am, although another review says the final hour is spent preparing to close. Pricing feedback is mixed: some customers call it reasonable or competitive, while others find products expensive.
Delivery deserves caution. Customers report waits of an hour or even two hours, including one case where a promised 20-minute order was forgotten. Several older reviews also describe rude customer service.
5 and being refused the refund on return. For a quick essentials run, the compact format may be convenient; for broad choice, expectations should be modest.
