Went to Metro today. Excellent range of goods, far better than Abu Ashra. Also, they deliver for 3le. This price includes you and your shopping! Great value if you live near the Esplanada.

metro covers all hurghada not only Esplanada its amazing they have a fish market department which realy offer fresh fish and amazing prices they even cook it for you if interested can u believe it wow we was in need for it

can you buy beer and local spirits and how do prices compare with a bar

don\t know but i don't think you can find it there

Hi
As you asked from where to buy beer there is a cafe in El Arosa Square called Tamr Hena you just can go inside and buy it and go out as a supermarket

You can not buy alcohol in Metro or any other supermarket. You can however buy local beer, wine and spirits from the duty free shop in Villages Road. For international brands you are limited to 3 purchases per passport and these must be purchased within 48 hours of arriving. Hope this (hic) helps!

has anyone got the prices for local spirits and beer at these shops as there is not much compatition would be interesting to see what they are charging

The prices in the duty free shop in Sekalla tend to be $1 less per item than in the Esplanada duty free shop. However, there are hardly any local brands in the Sekalla shop. There is a better selection of local brands in the Esplanada duty free shop.The price of the big cans of Stella are 7Le.
The prices of the electrical equipment in the shop next to the duty free shop in Sekalla seem to be expensive compared to elseware.
