Lidl Reviews

I shop at Lidl only when money is tight and therefore recommend it to those on a budget or who are not adventurous cooks. It stocks basic goods and is well worth a visit for stocking up on cans of food. Fresh veg is cheaper than most places but you can't guarantee what you were intending to buy will be in the store when you want it. Soft ...  Read the complete review

Lidl is another of the German food retailers to move into Britain. They work on lower margins than the likes of Sainsburys and Tescos and this shows in their prices. This really is a no frills shop, don't expect to be pampered by staff packing your bags, lots of extra checkout assistants so you won't have to queue much if this is ...  Read the complete review

A Lidl store opened near my home several years ago. The rumour was that a Kwik Save was being built, so when we saw the Lidl sign, we were eager to find out what sort of shop it was, as it wasn't a name we were at all familiar with. Basically Lidl stock a supply of extremely cheap food and household items, most are made ...  Read the complete review

I suspect many of you looking at this column will hardly have heard of L I D L - as a matter of fact, they have 4,000 stores throughout Western Europe. They have a twin track policy: permanent low prices on staple household requirements (e.g. 100g instant coffee for 39p, 1kg white rice for 65p) and weekly special bargains on non-food ...  Read the complete review

In my 3rd year at the University of Wales, Aberystywth there was an explosion in the number of shops available. One of these was a Safeways (in addition to the Sommerfield, Kwik Save, 3 Spars and a Pioneer!) which was a godsend but also there was an Iceland and a Lidl by the train/bus station. Now as a student without a car this ...  Read the complete review

My first visit to LIDL was when we was visiting Liverpool. We found that the food price there is cheaper compared to other giant supermarkets like Tesco and Asda. However, most of the food stuff sold there are mainly from Europe and not locak British products. For those who prefer a change of style and would like to try some of the continent ...  Read the complete review

All of us have surely seen these stores popping up everywhere, they're very good prices for some people who need to shop on a low budget. As soon as i walked into my local store, i was extremely taken back by how light and airy this store appeared. It's staff are far more polite than other big stores, nothing was to much trouble.The ...  Read the complete review

I went to my local lidl a month or so ago after looking at my bank ballance. The prices there are very good, everything is really cheap. But that alone wasn't enough to get me to like the place. The layout of the store I went to was rubbish, it took ages to find anything. The quality of the products is dubious espescially the fresh ...  Read the complete review

A no frills store, but packed with good quality, well priced goods. many of the brand names are foreign, but don't let that put you off. They have a very basic layout, just stuff put straight on to shelves, no fancy signing, nothing, but it is reflected in the cost of the items they sell. You can find almost everything you require, ...  Read the complete review

Lidl is a great place to shop - and not just because of their low prices. Being part of a large European chain they buy from whatever country has the best products at the best prices - this often means the country best known for the product. Therefore they sell Pizza from Italy, Salsa from Spain, Wurst sausage from Germany and many more ...  Read the complete review

Mega cheap, but you can`t do a weeks shopping there. This shop is best to start off with before doing the real weeks shopping. Beans, spaghetti, tomatoes etc..are silly prices 9p or less, sometimes even 5p. Lemonade is 19p a bottle or less. Things like that are excellent buys, and are no different to other stores own ...  Read the complete review

Lidl is a German supermarket chain which have quite a lot of stores now in the UK. They do not go in for frills and take cash, cheques or debit cards, no credit cards I'm afraid. But the main thing is the prices - they are great. They have a decent range which includes beers, wines & spirits, cleaning supplies like washing up ...  Read the complete review
