Default Buying booze in Dubai

Just moved down here from Abu Dhabi, where I had a Spinneys grog shop on my doorstep which was great. Living in Dubai Marina now and wondering where my nearest bottle shop is? Fear that it's not a walk away!

Really? Have been in to that Spinneys but can't see a booze place. I'll take a closer look.

It's the other side of the fountains to Spinneys right next to the car park entrance.

There's also MMI at Ibn Battuta (just round the corner from the Andalusia Court gate near where the big Islamic arch is). A lot of Dubai Marina BEs shop at the Geant hypermarket there.

Look up MMI and maps of its outlets.
