Lidl provides great quality food. Compared to other large supermarkets the quality of tinned products, cold meats and frozen goods is 100% better. But, people are right it is important to be... more

    Advantages Advantages They're the best kept secret in town!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can't use my beloved credit card.

    "Did you say Lidl -I wouldn’t be seen dead in the place!" I've found that's a typical reaction whenever the "L" word is mentioned in the company of the non-cognoscenti. I counter that this Company (and a couple of their Continent inspired cousins) is a retail phenomena that even the most cynical can't afford to ignore for much longer. Then I go on some. To confess, I'm an "outed" Lidl fanatic! We're talking shopping here. Basic shopping. That's something that The Bride, in her wisdom, entrusts to me, her retired and consequently humbled servant. By basic, read washing powder, bleach, bin ... more

    Advantages Advantages Value for money

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Paying for carrier bags

    I had never been into a Lidl store before, up until a few weeks ago. I pass one every day on my way to work and just recently we have been receiving leaflets full of vouchers and offers currently on in the store. These make great reading whilst eating breakfast! I decided to go and see what all the fuss was about. I have always thought of Lidl as being a cheap and cheerful supermarket, and that's exactly what it is, even the sign above the door looks cheap, blue, yellow and red showing just the word Lidl. Lidl stores always seem to have a good sized car park without the potholes and rubbish ... more

    Advantages Advantages Cheap

    Disadvantages Disadvantages pay for bag's, untidy stores

    I bet for many of you on here, when you hear the name ‘Lidl’ think cheap food, bad quality, for poor people, and until recently I would have fully agreed with you. My opinion of the German supermarket lidl has never been very high and as an influential teenager I would have never been caught dead in my local branch. My first experience of Lidl was in 1995 when a new store opened in Frome, Somerset. My parents were never poor but we loved a bargain and Lidl’s looked like the place we would get this. I wasn’t very impressed initially as I could see no big names like ... more

    Advantages Advantages Cheap and cheerful, easy parking

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Mainly own branded goods

    LIDL SUPERMARKET. Lidl, a 'low price' supermarket has two branches in my area, a town centre shop and an out of town superstore. The company began in the UK back in the mid 1990's and now has several hundred stores across the country. The Lidl concept is a 'stack 'em high, sell 'em low' one. The shops tend to be rather warehouse-like with goods stacked high either side of the aisles. The Lidl logo is a little wacky, a yellow banner with the name in blue, apart from the ' I' which is offset and red. The store's motto is 'Where Quality is Cheaper' Most of the Lidl own brand goods seem to ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great prices, most food is good

    Disadvantages Disadvantages limited range, shabby store

    We all hate spending our hard earned cash on boring things like groceries so we are all trying to save money by buying bargains and trying budget stores. Leading the way in this revolution are the German owned chains such as Aldi, Netto and Lidl. I am used to this style of supermarket as my parents often shop at the Aldi in Dumfries and the food is just as good as branded stuff! When Lidl opened a store on Stockport Road in Longsight Manchester I felt I had to see if Lidl was as good as Aldi! Lidl is a German owned store who first arrived in Britain in 1994 and now has over 330 branches in ... more
