Bottom Line

A very good supermarket, and the Palm's first. It's not a full Spinney's supermarket which means that if its something very specific you're after, you may still need to journey off the island for it.

The biggest supermarket on the Palm Jumeirah and likely to remain so. Only Waitrose, which will open in the Nakheel Mall, in theory in 2018, could be larger.

Has most of what you would look for, but lacks some of the features of the larger stories – a seafood counter for example.

The Golden Mile store is also one of the first in the UAE to feature environmentally-friendly, glass-encased refrigerators – basically your goods should be fresher, and you will be doing less damage to the environment. Hurrah!

Spinneys does not deliver.
