UAE Food Data API: Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem, Noon and Keeta Menu Data

FoodSpark’s UAE food data API delivers restaurant, menu, and delivery data from Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem, Noon, and Keeta. You can then get it as JSON, CSV or a live API feed. Every record also carries the emirate, area, and coordinates. So you can compare Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah fairly.

In short, you get:

  • Delivery app data: restaurants, menus, prices, fees, offers and ratings
  • Menu details: dishes, combos, sizes, add-ons and Arabic and English names
  • UAE-ready fields: dirham prices, VAT flags, emirate and area tags
  • Flexible delivery: a one-off dataset, a scheduled feed or live API access

Why the UAE Food Data API Needs Local Detail

The UAE’s delivery market, however, has five big apps, two menu languages, and few postcodes. So, data that ignores these details leads to unfair comparisons. That is why our UAE food data API captures each local detail as its own field.

  • A crowded market: Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem, Noon and Keeta all compete for the same orders. As a result, prices and offers change often.
  • A fast new rival: Meituan’s Keeta launched in Dubai in September 2025. Keeta says it then reached all seven emirates within 90 days.
  • New owners: DoorDash completed its takeover of Deliveroo in October 2025. Meanwhile, Uber has offered to buy Talabat’s majority owner, Delivery Hero.
  • Uber and Careem: In July 2026, Uber also took control of the Careem app, which includes Careem Food. So, Uber could soon control two big UAE apps.
  • VAT-inclusive prices: The UAE charges 5% VAT, and consumer prices must include it. Therefore, we record each price as shown and flag the tax.
  • Few postcodes: Most UAE addresses do not use postcodes. Instead, we tag each record with its emirate, area, and coordinates.

Sources Covered by the UAE Food Data API

The UAE food data API collects public data from the apps and chains UAE diners use most. Then we merge it into one clean dataset. Each linked name also opens its full API page.

Delivery Apps

Platform (owner)Data you get
Talabat (Delivery Hero)Restaurants, menus, prices, fees, offers and ratings
Deliveroo (DoorDash)Restaurants, menus, prices, fees and offers
Careem Food (Careem, controlled by Uber)Restaurants, menus, prices, fees and member deals
Noon Food (noon)Restaurants, menus, prices and offers
Keeta (Meituan)Restaurants, menus, prices, fees and coupons

So why not use the apps’ own APIs? The big apps do offer order and menu integrations, but only to their partner restaurants. However, those tools show your own stores and orders. By contrast, the UAE food data API shows the whole market in the areas you choose.

Restaurant Chains

Chains: we also cover chains such as McDonald’s, KFC and Starbucks. Similarly, we can add local favourites such as Operation Falafel and Al Safadi on request.

Need a source that is not listed? Then we build a custom crawler and add it to your UAE food data API feed.

Emirates and Areas in the UAE Food Data API

The UAE food data API covers every area a source app serves. Even so, the big cities matter most, since all five apps compete there.

EmirateWhy it matters
DubaiThe most populous emirate, with the densest restaurant choice
Abu DhabiThe capital, with large office and family areas
SharjahA big commuter city next to Dubai
AjmanA smaller city within reach of Dubai and Sharjah
Northern emiratesRas Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain, which Keeta reached in 2025

For example, you can compare one burger chain’s prices in Dubai Marina and Abu Dhabi. Likewise, you can check how delivery fees change from one area to the next.

How the UAE Food Data API Maps Locations

Most UAE street addresses do not use postcodes. Instead, Dubai buildings carry 10-digit Makani numbers, while Abu Dhabi uses the Onwani system. So, the UAE food data API maps each outlet to its emirate, area, and coordinates. As a result, you can roll data up from one building to the whole country.

Formats and Delivery

You can get the data as JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML. In addition, we can push it to a database, cloud storage, or your own endpoint. Refresh rates, meanwhile, range from real-time and daily to weekly or monthly.

How It Works

  1. Share your needs: tell us the apps, emirates, and fields you want.
  2. Review a sample: check a free UAE sample first.
  3. Set up the feed: then we configure crawlers, schedules, and quality checks.
  4. Stay covered: finally, we fix the crawlers whenever an app changes.

What Teams Do With the UAE Food Data API

Teams use the UAE food data API to follow a five-app market where offers change often. For example, they:

  1. Compare platforms: check the same restaurant’s price on Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem, Noon and Keeta.
  2. Track Keeta’s push: see how its coupons and fees affect rival apps.
  3. Plan for Ramadan: compare hours, menus and prices before and during Ramadan.
  4. Watch the ownership changes: follow prices and fees as the Uber and DoorDash deals play out.
  5. Benchmark chains: compare McDonald’s, KFC and local chains by emirate.
  6. Feed AI and dashboards: use fresh, structured data instead of reports that go stale.

Because prices, fees, and offers keep shifting, a one-off report ages fast. So a scheduled feed usually works better.

UAE Food Data API: FAQs

What is a UAE food data API?

A UAE food data API gives your software structured data from UAE delivery apps and restaurants. For example, it includes menus, prices, fees, offers, and ratings. So your apps and dashboards always work with fresh data.

Can you extract Talabat and Deliveroo data in the UAE?

Yes. We collect public Talabat, Deliveroo, Careem, Noon, and Keeta menus, prices, fees, offers, and ratings by emirate or area. In addition, each dish stays linked to its restaurant ID.

Do you cover Keeta?

Yes. Keeta launched in Dubai in September 2025 and says it now serves all seven emirates. So we collect its menus, prices, and coupons alongside the other apps.

How do you handle VAT?

Prices shown to consumers must include the 5% VAT. So we record each price as shown and flag that VAT is included.

How do you map addresses without postcodes?

Most UAE addresses have no postcode, so we use the emirate, area, and coordinates for every outlet. In Dubai, we also capture the Makani number wherever it is shown.

Is the data legally sourced?

We collect only public listing data, such as menus, prices, ratings, and availability. In other words, we never collect personal or login-protected data. We also design the feed with the UAE’s Personal Data Protection Law in mind.

How do I get a free sample?

Just tell us the app, emirate, and fields you need. Then we send a free sample, usually as JSON or CSV.
