SAN STEFANO GRAND PLAZA

Department store

This skyscraper complex houses accommodation, the Four Seasons Hotel and Alexandria's newest shopping centre. Arranged on several floors, you can find everything at prices that are, however, higher than the city as a whole. Fashion, beauty, pharmacy, optics, food: it has the advantage of bringing together all the services required in one place. Several restaurant signs, a cinema on the top floor and an amusement park for children. The shopping centre is one of the Alexandrians' family outings!

DELICES

Bread cakes chocolates ice cream

Nice view of the square and the old port in the distance. For a classic breakfast or a late afternoon tea. Impressive selection of pastries, each one as good as the next! Here we love the cream, coatings, toppings and coulis that coat almost all the cakes and even the viennoiseries (their interpretation of pain au chocolat is... very chocolaty everywhere!). Chocolate specialities and a beautiful selection of oriental pastries that you can buy to take away, why not for a souvenir gift?

AZZA

Glacier

Ice cream concept in the fashion of Alexandria that has developed on both sides of the city. Served in jars and cones, the ice cream specialities have different flavours that can be enhanced with roasted nuts, honey or qeshta (thick cream). Mango, lemon or mastica, fruit ice-creams are to our taste the best, but the sweet tooth will be tempted by the shabah: rice cake, topped with ice cream, nuts, honey and qeshta! Choose the size that suits you, to be enjoyed while walking along the cornice.

ALEXANDRIA CITY CENTER

Department store

Large shopping mall at the exit of the city where you will find everything you need for shopping and a huge Carrefour for food. The big international brands have taken their place there alongside local brands. Beauty salons, pharmacies, banks and a plethora of fast-food outlets, cafés and restaurants. There is also a state-of-the-art cinema and a "Magic planet", including an indoor playroom, rides and entertainment for children. Very American in concept but it can be a bit of a fixer-upper.
