Location & How to Find It
Lulu Hypermarket Kuwaitat is on Shakhbout Bin Sultan Street, Kuwaitat, Central District, Al Ain. The address is confirmed across dealzbook.ae, waze, foodbevg.com, findglocal.com and localemirates — no conflicts here. Kuwaitat is Al Ain’s central commercial district, so this branch draws shoppers from across the city: it is the “downtown Lulu” rather than a suburban outpost.
The store carries a 4.2 rating (localemirates, from 109 visitors) and a 4.4 on infoaboutcompanies.ae. The branch landline is 03 711 8600 (localemirates also lists 03 764 0666).
Opening Hours
Lulu Hypermarket Kuwaitat is open every day from 8:00 AM to 12:00 midnight — confirmed directly on dealzbook.ae’s branch page, with waze and localemirates agreeing. One warning: wowdeals.me’s Al Ain catalogue page writes the Kuwaitat hours as “08:00 am to 12:00 pm”, which is clearly a typo for midnight — do not trust that listing.
The branch operates on Fridays and public holidays like the rest of the UAE network, with possible adjusted hours during Ramadan.
Getting There
- Car: Shakhbout Bin Sultan Street runs through the heart of the Kuwaitat district — easy to reach from anywhere in Al Ain’s central area, with customer parking at the store.
- Taxi: Al Ain’s taxi network covers the Central District well; the Kuwaitat district is a well-known drop-off point.
- Bus: Al Ain’s municipal buses serve the central district routes; check current route numbers on the local journey planner.
- Public parking: as a central-district store, surrounding streets can be busy — arrive earlier on weekends for the easiest parking.
Departments & What’s Inside
Kuwaitat’s central position means a fuller tenant mix than most suburban branches:
- Malabar Gold and Diamonds: a full jewellery counter inside the branch (10:00 AM–10:30 PM, per bestthings.ae) — a rarity among Lulu branches.
- Big Ticket lottery counter: the Big Ticket counter is installed at this branch (a Lulu Retail YouTube short shows the counter, operating 10 AM–10 PM).
- Fresh & grocery: produce, fresh fish, meat, bakery, dairy, and Lulu’s signature Indian, Pakistani and Filipino grocery ranges.
- Pharmacy, deli and department store: per eercorporateservices.ae’s branch listing, the store covers pharmacy, deli and department-store categories.
- Money exchange nearby: an Al Fardan Exchange operates at the nearby Lulu Hypermarket Sanaiya branch — useful for remittance runs combined with a grocery trip.

Other Lulu Branches in Al Ain
Al Ain has 9+ Lulu branches per wowdeals.me, so Kuwaitat is not your only option:
- Lulu Hypermarket Sanaiya — the industrial-area branch with the Al Fardan Exchange nearby.
- Lulu Hypermarket Madinat Zayed — another Al Ain-area branch.
- Lulu Hypermarket Fujairah — for readers on the east coast, Lulu’s Fujairah store.

The Jewellery & Lottery Counters: Plan Around Their Hours
Two in-store counters make the Kuwaitat branch unusual among Lulu stores — and both run shorter hours than the hypermarket itself, so plan your visit around them:
| Counter | Hours | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Malabar Gold and Diamonds | 10:00 AM – 10:30 PM | A full jewellery counter inside the branch — rare for a Lulu store. |
| Big Ticket lottery counter | 10:00 AM – 10:00 PM | Installed at this branch per a Lulu Retail YouTube short; buy draw tickets in-store. |
| Hypermarket floor | 8:00 AM – 12:00 AM | Grocery and department shopping — open longer on both ends. |
If you are visiting for jewellery, arrive before 10:30 PM — the counter closes 90 minutes before the hypermarket does. For Big Ticket draws, the 10 AM–10 PM window gives you a full day to buy tickets ahead of the draw.
Kuwaitat vs Other Al Ain Lulu Branches
Al Ain has more than nine Lulu branches, so where does Kuwaitat sit in the pecking order?
- Kuwaitat: the central-district branch — best for downtown residents, the jewellery and lottery counters, and a central meeting point.
- Sanaiya: the industrial-area branch — handy for the Sanaiya zone, with an Al Fardan Exchange nearby for remittance runs.
- Foah Mall, Barari Outlet, Maqam: suburban and mall-based options listed on dealzbook.ae’s branch pages — worth considering if you live closer to them than to Kuwaitat.
For offer-hunting, the logic is simple: Kuwaitat gets the flagship central promotions, but the suburban branches run the same catalogue deals. Check dealzbook.ae’s branch pages for each and shop the one closest to you — the prices will usually match.
Money Exchange & Remittance Runs
Al Ain’s large expat community shops at Lulu and sends money home in the same trip. The Kuwaitat branch covers the jewellery and lottery angles in-store, while the nearby Sanaiya branch has the Al Fardan Exchange for currency exchange and remittances. If your monthly routine is “groceries plus sending money home”, pairing the two branches on one driving route is the efficient play.
