Regal Fabrics alone has logged 4,295 Google reviews in Abu Dhabi, more than the other fabric shops on this page combined, and it still holds a 4.9 rating while doing it. That kind of volume at that quality is rare for a fabric retailer, and it sets the bar for a city where buyers range from brides picking silk to homeowners ordering made-to-measure curtains.

Short answer: Regal Fabrics Abu Dhabi is the clear leader with a 4.9 rating across 4,295 Google reviews, prized for premium silk, chiffon and bridal fabric. Hind Fabrics holds a perfect 5.0 across 207 reviews for luxury Indian silks, and Habib Shah Store (4.9, 288 reviews) is the top pick for custom curtains with in-home installation. Expect prices to vary widely by fabric type, with premium silk sitting well above everyday cotton.

Watch: 5 Best Fabric Shops in Abu Dhabi (2026)

How we score

Every number on this page is computed from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the shop’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, ranked against other Abu Dhabi fabric shops. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from thousands of reviewers carries more weight than a 5.0 from a couple hundred. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does fabric cost in Abu Dhabi? (2026)

None of these shops publish a fixed price list, and fabric pricing varies enormously by material, from everyday cotton to premium silk and bridal brocade. Expect curtain fabric and installation to be quoted per metre plus a labour fee. Ask each shop directly for current pricing on the specific fabric you want.

Fabric shops across Abu Dhabi

Most of the fabric shops on this page cluster around Al Danah and Khalidiyah, in the city’s traditional textile district, making it easy to compare a few shops in one trip. Searching for a fabric shop near me? These central locations are a short walk or drive from each other for side-by-side comparison.

What to ask before you buy fabric in Abu Dhabi

  • Is the price quoted per metre, and is there a minimum purchase?
  • Can the shop recommend the right fabric weight for my design or climate?
  • Do you offer tailoring or curtain installation alongside the fabric?
  • What’s the return or exchange policy on cut fabric?
  • Is delivery available, and what does it cost?
  • Can you match a specific colour or pattern I bring in?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these fabric shops?

We started from fabric shops in Abu Dhabi with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Which fabric shop is best for bridal or occasion fabric?

Regal Fabrics and Hind Fabrics both specialise in premium silk and formal-wear fabric, with Hind Fabrics known specifically for Indian silks and zari work.

Where can I get curtains made and installed in Abu Dhabi?

Habib Shah Store handles custom curtain fabric, sewing and in-home installation, with reviewers highlighting clear, itemised pricing.

The bottom line

Regal Fabrics is the safe default for its sheer range and track record, while Hind Fabrics is worth the trip for Indian silk and Habib Shah is the clear call for curtains. Bring a fabric sample or photo of what you want and ask for the price per metre before you commit.
