Lidl

"My experience was terrible. I bought several products and the meat I bought arrived in poor condition and they should verify the quality of the products before putting them on sale."

"When Lidl first opened, I was very enthusiastic. My enthusiasm has dimmed some. The two best things about Lidl are their fresh baked goods and some of their imported items (canned stuffed grape leaves, jams). Their prices, however, particularly for produce, have risen more than some of their local competitors, and the quality isn't always great. So, for the bakery and for unusual imported foods, it's worth stopping in."

"They did not honor the Lidl Love It Guarantee when I had a return. They only offered me a refund or replacement, not both. The worker said that they had never heard of this return policy, which Lidl advertises. Don't get me wrong, this place is better than the Aldi right across the highway (sketch). However, I really don't like when a company says one thing and does another."

"Cheap prices, but every time I go I have to pick through what's on the shelf to avoid getting rotten produce or mold covered bread or fruit. I bought a pack of raspberries today that I had to throw out because they were all slimey and falling apart as I grabbed them. I also saw a bag of bagels covered in moldy spots as well. This place is cheap, but expect the quality you're paying for. The employees are always super nice though"

"We really liked this new store in Frederick! It has a great bakery and produce section, and the prices are very reasonable in comparison to other discount grocery stores in the area. It’s a fairly large store with good selections of merchandise, including a section of more European items and snacks. It’s new, so it is often very busy, and I would try to avoid peak hours or weekends for now, unless you don’t mind the long checkout lines. A few things that I like about this store in comparison to their main competitor that we often shop at, Aldi… 1. No “quarter for a cart”- you just take your cart and return it in the parking lot 2. Better selection of name brand items. More familiar brands available 3. Large produce section 4. Large selection of fresh baked goods 5. No self bagging (unless you want to help!) 6. Usually have multiple checkouts open, instead of just one or two 7. Weekly specials that are advertised online, so you can check them out on their website 8. Online ordering and curbside or in store pickup Just go check it out!"
