Reem Mall Abu Dhabi will soon be the top destination for those looking for entertainment and leisure because of its excellent location and wide variety of activities. Are you curious about what makes this place special? There’s nowhere else to look! Our goal with this review will reveal the mall’s best kept treasures and provide recommendations for improvements.

Come along on this incredible journey with us, where there will be discoveries around every corner and excitement at every turn. Take part in the excitement and let’s explore the Reem Mall universe together.

Accessibility

Reem mall was welcoming to all. Wheelchair users and stroller users found it easy to enter the mall because there were ramps instead of stairs. Elevators were available for people who were unable to use the stairs. People with vision impairments could navigate the area because the signage was easy to see and included pictures and large letters. There were spots in the parking lot for people with disabilities, and they were close to the entrance, making it reachable. However, during our first visit, we found it a bit tricky and unclear, so we got lost briefly, but this is understandable. Inside the Reem mall, benches and resting spots were distributed throughout, which was useful for older individuals or anyone in need of a break. Additionally, large accessible restrooms with handrails were provided.Generally, I think the mall did a great job making sure that nobody would have to deal with any difficulties to enjoy the experience of shopping. 

Amenities

Reem Mall is one of Abu Dhabi’s largest malls. Therefore, it requires a variety of amenities such as restrooms, prayer rooms, and children’s changing areas. Based on our observations, Reem Mall has more than enough amenities that are very clean and smell nice. The restrooms are gender-segregated and large, with ring lights in the mirrors. Some of the nice touches we saw included the children’s sinks, the sensor-controlled soap dispensers, water dispensers, hand dryers, and a seating place for people waiting in the restroom.

Aside from the toilets, there are areas where moms may nurse their children, change, wash, and clean them. These rooms are clean and very accommodating for moms. We also support providing similar rooms for dads so they can care for their children as well.

Reem Mall has only two Prayer rooms, one for men and the other for females. The female prayer room is on level two, and the male prayer room is on level three. Compared to the size of the mall, two prayer rooms wouldn’t be enough and if the mall got crowded the prayer room wouldn’t handle the amount of people. Besides that the prayer room is big in size, it smells wonderful and it’s super clean. There is a camera in the prayer room, for the people that wear hijab this can be a big deal because they don’t know who’s monitoring the camera and they will not be comfortable to fix their hijab or move comfortably. Compared to the size of the large prayer hall, there are few ablution sinks, which could be crowded if there is a crowd at prayer time. Before entering the prayer room there is a place to put your footwear in them. It is really well-designed and organized.

Atmosphere

Entering Reem Mall is like stepping into a bright, fresh new universe. A feeling of freedom and relaxation is created by the spacious layout and the numerous windows. You may stroll around the aisles at your own pace and take in the natural light that comes in from every angle. In addition to providing light, the windows provide views of the exterior, which heightens the room’s feeling of openness to the outside world. All things considered, Reem Mall is a pleasant escape for anybody looking for a relaxed walk or a casual shopping experience in a refreshing setting.

Since Reem Mall has a large inventory, customers can choose from a wide range of scents and beauty products, making it the best option for people who appreciate quality and variety in their purchases.

 

Technology

We were impressed by Reem Mall’s great selection of technology stores, featuring recognized brands like Samsung and Emax, during our recent visit. We were looking forward to checking out the newest tools, electronics, and the latest innovations that these companies had to offer as passionate tech lovers. Reem Mall offered everything from innovative home appliances and entertainment systems to the latest smartphones and trendy laptops. We were blown away with the wide selection of technological gadgets that suited every need and preferences, and we were eager to introduce other tech lovers to Reem Mall. For individuals looking for the newest and greatest in tech advances, Reem Mall is definitely a must-visit location due to its wide and diversified selection of tech sellers.

Sport

Having so many outstanding sports stores like Decathlon, Under Armour, Adidas, and Nike, Reem Mall Abu Dhabi is a great place for those who love sports.  We were excited to find an extensive range of outstanding sports clothing, footwear, and accessories from these leading brands during our visit. Reem Mall’s broad selection of sports products fulfills the demands of all sports admirers, regardless of experience level.

 

Supermarkets

Remembering what you need is essential. Reem Mall has Carrefour and Spinneys to meet all of your grocery needs. These shops offer an easy one-stop shopping experience, whether you’re filling up on home goods, vegetables that are fresh, or pantry items. Grocery shopping is, after all, an essential component of every shopping excursion, and Reem Mall understands the value of finding everything you need under one roof. With Spinneys and Carrefour easily accessible on the premises, customers can easily check their grocery list off. 

The excitement has been obvious since Reem Mall recently opened. It’s a place for lifestyle as much as shopping. Reem Mall can fulfill all of your material needs, whether you’re a fitness enthusiast, IT obsessed, house decorator, or social media influencer.

 

Prices

Let’s now discuss prices. Reem Mall is pleased to present an inclusive atmosphere that does not take into account one’s financial situation. The stores here aim to satisfy every customer, so your budget won’t be left in a corner. You can shop till you drop in Reem Mall without going over budget, so don’t worry, dear customer. Every guest may enjoy the delight of shopping here, from the newest fashion trends to cutting-edge technologies and everything in between. It’s a place of accessibility and diversity. 

Customer service

Customer service at the mall can be a big deal, especially for newly opened malls. Because when you visit the mall for the first time and deal with the employee’s service you will get the first impression and this will stick in your mind. It would be hard for us “the customers”  to know what shops are exactly in the mall and what features the mall has. Based on the review we’re doing, we have to communicate with so many employees to write an honest review about the customer service  and based on what we saw, the Customer information service team in Reem Mall is really friendly and willing to help you with their best as well as they also suggest other options if the option that you want is not available. The mall’s customer service employees, weather security personnel, cleaners, or information desk workers are so kind and helpful. They are ready to answer any questions, and guide you through your visit. If you need more information about the mall, you can call the mall through their number, contact them via email, or communicate with them through their social media accounts on “x”, “Instagram” and “Facebook”.

Dining Experience

Range of Dining Establishments at Reem Mall

Reem Mall has a relatively small selection of food establishments organized into three categories: restaurants, cafés, and fast-food outlets. There are three restaurants (Paul, Wagamama, & Café Bateel), three fast food outlets (McDonald’s, Papa John’s, & Subway), and six cafes (Caribou Coffee, Tim Hortons, La Perle Sweets, Gelato Divino, La Zona Cafe, and Chatime). Given the mall’s size and the diversity of its visitors, we believe the number of food outlets and variety is quite limited. To fulfill the customers’ needs, the mall has to provide more dining outlets, a broader range of cuisines, and more affordable options.

Experience and Taste of Food

During our visit to Reem Mall, we tried three different outlets. Here’s a review of our experience at each one, along with a few details to help you plan your visit:

La Perle Café

La Perle Cafe offers a selection of savory and sweet pastries, desserts, and drinks, both hot and cold. They additionally serve afternoon tea, which you can enjoy alongside a stand packed with delicious mini sandwiches and sweet treats. Our experience at the café was fantastic. The ambiance is lovely, the place is picture-perfect, and the staff are warm and welcoming. To give you a better idea of how their food is, we tasted a small piece of Nutella mousse cake from their special Valentine’s menu. The cake cost AED 29. Although it was a little pricey compared to its size, it looked great and was delicious. We highly recommend visiting their branch at Reem Mall and sharing their delectable goods with your loved ones or significant other.

Operating Hours

Weekdays: 9 a.m. to 10 p.m.; weekends: 9 a.m. to 11:30 p.m.

Tim Hortons

“Tim Hortons” serves the most flavorful selection of donuts, excellent coffee, and a variety of sandwiches and wraps. Tim Hortons has two locations in Reem Mall: a stand near Carrefour and the primary branch across from Paul Cafe. The main branch, which we visited, was spacious, cozy, and inviting. We sampled half a dozen donuts, which cost us AED 54. The price was reasonable, the staff was accommodating, the donuts were excellent, and the order was ready in under three minutes. Visit Tim Hortons Reem Mall for tasty donuts and family-friendly food options. Be sure to try their Nutella donut the next time you go (but be aware of dietary restrictions). 

Operating Hours

Every day from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Wagamama

Wagamama is a Japanese-Asian restaurant known for its delicious Asian cuisine options. This popular food chain has a medium-sized branch in Reem Mall, with an inviting atmosphere and outstanding customer service. We began our gourmet excursion at Wagamama with their delicious beef barbecue bao, which satisfied us with its great flavor. We then enjoyed their delicious chicken katsu, with nicely cooked rice and a well-seasoned side salad, and ended our meal with the delightful rose cloudy lemonade. The lemonade was delicious, yet we only recommend it to those who enjoy the rose flavor. If you plan to grab lunch or dinner in Reem Mall pass by Wagamama, enjoy their delightful family-friendly meals, and take advantage of the offers on the Wagamama app.
 
Operating Hours

Weekdays: 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.; weekends: 11 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Ambiance and Atmosphere of The Food Court 

We found the ambiance and atmosphere of the dining area at Reem mall to be pleasant but small, with a limited selection of restaurants and a limited number of seating tables. While the food court has a play area for children, which is a plus, we believe there is still potential for improvement to meet the guests’ needs. 

Entertainment  

Reem mall is a premier destination for entertainment, offering a wide range of exciting options to keep visitors of all ages entertained, including:

Snow Abu Dhabi

Reem Mall’s Snow Abu Dhabi’s snow park is the first in the Emirati capital and the largest worldwide. In this snowy wonderland, you can snowboard, ski, go on rides, or have fun in the snow with your loved ones. We went to the park, and it was freezing inside. The staff was incredibly kind, and we did not have to wait long to get the tickets, pay, and enter. We spent around four hours inside and had a great time. Inside Snow Abu Dhabi , you will find The Lodge restaurant, Enchanted café, a hot chocolate stand, and a souvenir store. If you do not mind crowds, visit on weekends; however, if you want to experience the location on your own, go in the morning during the week. It is a unique place that you should take your family and friends to enjoy.

 Vox Cinema

If you are in the mood for movies, Vox Cinema at Reem Mall Abu Dhabi is the place to be. They have state-of-the-art theaters with comfy seats and a wide selection of movies to choose from. It is a great spot to catch the latest movies and enjoy a cinematic experience. We found that the showtimes at Vox Cinema Reem Mall are limited and mainly run from the afternoon to the evening, with very few morning screenings, so check their website before visiting.

Orange wheels 

For the little ones, there’s Orange Wheels, an indoor play area with tons of activities. They have slides, climbing structures, and even a trampoline park. It’s a perfect place for kids to burn off some energy. Orange Wheels charges AED 115 for a two-hour session, with additional hours costing AED 50 each, which is a bit pricey to us. Nevertheless, It is an ideal spot to take your kids if you want them to have fun in a safe environment.

It’s a thrilling and immersive experience. All guests to the Cube Challenge must wear sneakers. Also, children ages eight to eleven must be accompanied by at least one adult, and children under eight years are not permitted inside.

Overall Experience: Worth a visit? Or skip it?

Reem Mall Abu Dhabi offers a pleasurable experience all around. It has several facilities, including prayer rooms, kind staff, and spotless restrooms. However, better signage inside the parking areas would help avoid misunderstanding. Even if not all of the shops and restaurants have opened yet, guests may still have a fun day shopping and enjoying a variety of dining and entertainment options. So, if you’re planning to visit Reem mall take a look at their website to see what shops and restaurants are open or visit their instagram page to know about their events and be prepared to enjoy a pleasant time exploring the shops, eating tasty food, and trying out fun activities.
