    Woolworths Mall of Africa is second to None. They come first in everything. On arrival with my many bags the waiter was kind enough to sit me and guaranteed that my bags would safe away from me. He gave me the menu and informed me of the option to to enjoy the buffet. I chose to modify the Lamb burger since I do not take pork. Just added a well done egg. The burger came and I couldn't help but get an image of it . There's a source that came with the chips and some dip. As I indulged in the meal I could feel it massage my tongue and all the way down the spine and into the fallopian tubes kiki... it was AMAZING. I asked if they could call the chef and David came. David is the head chef and all glory and curses go to him. I told him of my marvelous experience eating the burger and how it had far exceeded my expectations. Keep up the good work David, I pray you grow in wisdom. After such a hearty meal I could help it but ask for a smoothie, berry with banana something something. I felt at home. The backdrop of the highway had this cooling effect on me. On my way out I went to ask for the chef that actually made my burger, and Snqobile (I hope I got that right) was mentioned and wow. Woolies made a good choice having that team right there. It felt like home, it felt like the office at the same time, it felt like Woolworths. If want some time alone or sometime with other people then try Woolies Mall of Africa. You wont just eat the food you will experience it. And when you get back home you will look back and repeat after me .. That was Awesome

    Woolworths is normally very good. However in the sale paper today it says Assorted Muesli is on sale, however the Manager (who was no where to be seen for 15 minutes) arrives and decides which ones are on sale and which are not. Will the head office contact me and explain?

    This is my favourite Woolies, and is really an amazing signature store for the Woolworths brand. Not only is their selection of food, homewear and clothing amazing their staff are really friendly and helpful too. Thank You for an amazing shopping experience.

    It was OK. I expect better. If I'm buying wine and I'm number 10 at the till I expect to be called to pay before all those paying for their groceries without wine In their trollies... that's all. Again Durban customer service... work on it.

    It was the first time thatcI visited Woolworths at Mall of Africa. 'Woolworths Is World Class.' I never have a reason to complain. Quality above Quantity... Found what he needed and it is just perfect. Customer Service is Great. Thank You #MissG🇿🇦

    Good and friendly service. We were a bit difficult and at the end, their customer service was excellent.

    If you buy a beauty product at Woolworths, best pray that you never encounter any "quality" issue because if you do, you're on your own. On the 3rd of November 2023, i bought the Marc Jacobs Perfect EDP 100ml, i used it and realized it didnt project well, nor does it last long. I tried it a couple of times and each time it was the same. I then decided to send a complaint to Woolworths on the 14th of November, one of their agents contacted me and asked me to take it to any Woolworths with a beauty section for the fragrance to be taken for quality testing. I did so on the 19th of November and took it to the Woolworths at Mall of Africa, upon receipt of it, the consultant told me id be contacted by a rep to let me know of the following steps. I sent the store an email following up and got no response, then sent an email to customer service on the 8th of December. Later on the same day, i missed a call from Woolworths MOA followed by an email as follows: As per the images attaches the product in question was manufactured 11th November 2022, which means this product has been on shelf for 12 months. Please see extract from our Returns Policy. The efficacy and scent of each fragrance is influenced by many factors. It is often unique to each customer and can be affected by many things, including your diet or the PH balance of your skin. Based on this – we cannot guarantee the product performs the same across each individual. We will however be happy to replace your item if the product is more than 36 months old from the date it was purchased. We will not be crediting or replacing the product as it is not older than 36 months. This was extremely disappointing because 1. There is no mention of the actual quality testing having taken place. 2. The response is purely a disclaimer of how a fragrance should perform, not this specific one and as a staunched perfume user, I am aware of the information im being given, my skin has never had performance issues with good quality fragrances. Furthermore, even though you wear a fragrance on your skin, it does transfer to your clothes where traces of it can be picked for days to months after the effect, this one didnt leave any trace. 3. If it only took a manufacturing date to determine the quality, why was I made to take the fragrance to the store which is definitely at a cost? I called the customer Service and conveyed my disappointment and the gentleman asked me to send an email detailing my experience quoting ref: **********8-**********94, i did so on the same day (08 Dec). After over a month of not receiving feedback, i contacted Customer Service again today (16 Jan 2024) and was told my complained was closed with comments " Customer was contacted and explained to that there will be no refund from the brand". At this point, it seems Woolworths just decided "let's ignore her until she goes away". Now that's The REAL Difference!!!!!!

    Once again Woolies MOA never fails to dissapoint, as a loyal client of Woolies visiting Mall of Africa Branch Cafe is always a dissapointment, I ordered kasi wings and was advised by the waiter prep time for the Wings is a day, can't believe that a massive store would not have wings when it's offered on the Cafe menu, forever dissapointed

    Awesome experience a bit busy weekends. So surprised to receive free yogurt on Saturday, don't know if this is happening on the weekends. Reminded me of the Asian countries where you get things for free.

    Sunday afternoon loooong long queues for the cashiers in the store, but the staff were great and allowed me to pay at the coffee counter when I got a coffee. Equally discouraging queues when paying for parking in the mall, it took really long to get out.

    Best store ever. The food is fresh, the store is very clean and well organized. The staff is friendly and helpful

  • 5/5 Asanda M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service. The staff in the beauty section don't play. They all deserve a raise. Myself and my sisters got broke in seconds😂😂😂 - skincare products and perfumes were our downfall.

  • 1/5 Suleman A. 1 year ago on Google
    Very rude behaviour security stuff at the gate specially at Mall of Africa Woolworth. Absolutely nonsense and not expecting this from such famous brand like Woolworths. You must look the right security services how to behave good with your clients? Don’t treat your customers like trash.

    Woolies is my favorite place. I buy all my day to day groceries, detergents and snacks. They have a variety of goods for every occasion. Great Service from Food to clothes 😀

    I had great service from Lisa, working in the Estee Lauder section, and Qiniso Ziqubu, one of the Operations Manager on duty. I went to Woolworths on Saturday, the 25th of November, and due to the heat and dryness in the air I had a sudden emergency. Lisa quickly responded and took me to the management office. It was here that Mr Ziqubu also assisted me as he could and sorted the emergency quickly. Due to this friendly and helpful service, I would like to compliment these staff members for their wonderful service.

    This is a high impact beautiful store with staff who are well trained, knowledgeable, friendly and quick to assist. The store is beautifully merchandised with everything you need and expect from a Woolworths store.

  • 5/5 Paimaan B. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent service. @Woolies - But if you reading this… I think it’s really really time to freshen up the menu. It’s the same menu for very long time 😉

  • 5/5 Londeka N. 1 year ago on Google
    The service was exceptional and not to mention the hygiene of the place. The food is always fresh

    Shopping experience was okey...it was my first time shopping in Woolworths mall of Africa, but everything is arranged so conveniently that I didn't have trouble finding anything. I'm probably going to shop there again 😅💪🏾

  • 5/5 nada m. 2 years ago on Google
    Cashier was super patient. Store is clean and easy to navigate. I also like that they close at 20h00, allows us to shop even after knocking off late.

  • 4/5 AK 2 years ago on Google
    Good sale that's on at the moment with up to 50% off on some products

  • 4/5 Rumaana H. 2 years ago on Google
    I have been here a couple of times. They have a good selection of items but its not the best woolies i have been to. The cafe, like others, is amazing. Its such a pleasure eating something when you know its been prepared well and the effort has been taken to make sure its presentable. They do this well. The staff at the till in the grocery section, some were nice, others are plain, downright rude. They are not the friendliest or the most helpful when you need them or even just greet them. Its definately worth a visit to the mall itself, and if you need a woolies, this is the place to go to.

  • 4/5 Aobakwe M. 2 years ago on Google
    All great, I just wish the lady doing the packing understood the reason why the screen displaying the amount was there in the first place as she covered it with her arms whilst chatting to the teller. But they were working despite having a conversation in between. Quality food, quality clothing, 👌

  • 3/5 Lebohang R. 2 years ago on Google
    For an upmarket store in a big mall I found not everything I wanted, also the intrusion of beggars to customers' business in the store.

  • 4/5 Soraya C. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Chetan L. 2 years ago on Google

    Mall of Africa is a place to be... I really enjoyed spending time there, and got everything i wanted and more...😁😀

  • 5/5 Monalisa V. 2 years ago on Google
    I love this store. You get almost everything you need here the is no need to go around. Clothing you get, groceries you get, house things you get, alcohol you get, perfume you get and when you tired of all the shopping you can just pop inside their coffee shop and just relax for a bit
