TL;DR
The pharmacy inside Senzo Mall stands out for its wide selection and cleanliness, though the mall itself is underwhelming — no grocery store and souvenirs require haggling. As an alternative, check pharmacies near your hotel (e.g. by Anton Mall) or the El Ezaby chain in the evening when it's cooler.
One traveler admitted she forgot about the pharmacy near her hotel and fixated on a delivery pharmacy instead, since walking anywhere in the heat wasn't appealing. She ended up going to Mango Market twice in the evening, though she'd have preferred the El Ezaby chain.
Another traveler was unimpressed with Senzo Mall — aside from the pharmacy, he found nothing interesting or cheap there and didn't get why it's so hyped. He planned to check out Anton Mall for comparison, since it's right next to his hotel.
Visitors to Senzo Mall couldn't find a grocery store, and souvenirs were sold only in one spot where you have to haggle. The mall's pharmacy, however, impressed them — wider selection, cleaner and brighter than typical pharmacies back home.
