Welcome to Arkwrights in Luxor, Egypt
Egypt is a magnificent country with a remarkable history which has formed its modern distinctive culture. The ancient Egyptians certainly knew the wonders of glorious foods by cultivating a variety of vegetables, fruits, herbs and spices to cater for the population of this unique and wonderful area of Upper Egypt.
Arkwrights, an Anglo Egyptian enterprise, also knows the delights of fine cuisine. They are dedicated to providing a selection of quality foods, enhancing condiments and beverages for tourists, expats or anyone having a desire for that extra special something not otherwise found in Luxor.
With a keen eye on hygiene and ample refrigeration, Arkwrights provide a clean, bright shop where ready to eat baguettes and cold drinks can be purchased for those hot tours into the Egyptian desert. Even chilled fresh fruit desserts are available to revive the weary traveller’s palate. We open at 6.00a.m. to facilitate those early morning starts for those going Aswan and Hurghada in the convoys. They can now come to Arkwrights and obtain their food and drink requirements for the journey ahead. Please view our Breakfast Bag and Meal Deals pages for further details.
For those residing in Egypt there are often cravings that only a taste of home can satisfy. Some expats have a longing for bottled or tinned European goods and Arkwrights provides many items previously unavailable in Luxor. Fine foods from Egypt and around the world are also to be found in the shop. Arkwrights is situated a little way from the main centre bustle in El Mahdy Street not far from the St. Joseph Hotel. Our shop assistants are encouraged to present a friendly, calm and polite atmosphere enabling customers to browse at their leisure.
We are confident that Arkwrights is unique to Luxor and we hope that you will appreciate the time taken to provide the best quality foods for home cooking, healthy snacks or tasty take-away foods for tourists, expats and Egyptians alike.
Online Shopping will be available via this web site soon and we look forward to being of service.
