Lidl

Let me start my first by saying that I like Lidl’s a lot. However, I was surprised to find one day when I went down there that they were closed. There was no sign on the door, indicating why they were closed. The rumor Willl said that there was an infestation of roaches in the bakery, but I don’t know if that is true or not so. However, when I went today, I discovered that there was a remodel done, although I can’t say that the store is better organizationally. Maybe it’s just that I’m not used to go to the store yet. The one thing that I did notice is that the cashews have been replaced by Self check out. I find this really deplorable. I believe that the store higher many people from the community to work there and now you only see three cashiers. Besides the idea around automation replacing human beings as a part of it’s organizational structure,, the bathroom is just really horrible. I appreciate that they had bathrooms and have not gone the route of places like Trader Joe’s in New York City. But please do better. I really like the local feel of having a cashier and that’s been removed and replaced. All in all, this is a three out of five experience for me.

I visited for the first time and had a good experience. It feels similar to an Aldi, but with a mix of name brands and off-brand products. The store was clean and organized, and the bread was fresh. The produce was also fresh, and there was a decent selection of meats and fish. My only suggestion would be to stock the freezer section a bit more — it looked a little empty.

I went to this grocery store and there were absolutely no carts or small hand carriers available anywhere. When I asked an employee about it, she told me I’d have to stand at the checkout and wait for someone to finish with theirs. However, no one in line had carts either. People were using their own bags or personal carts just to shop. How can a grocery store operate with no carts for customers? I couldn’t get everything I needed because I couldn’t carry it all. It seems like stores in lower income areas always have these kinds of issues. And the employees couldn’t care less. This would never happen in a white neighborhood

Wanted to go in to shop, but seen only one register open, a long line, and no self check out open by 3pm. Left immediately. Great store, great bakery, great prices, but I wont ever buy anything because the line is always long, more often than not there is only one person at the register, and even though it says, the self checkout line opens at a certain time the self checkout line will never be open. I can understand a small neighborhood or a smaller store but this location is in a shopping plaza where the line is always expected to be long. this is the reason why I choose to go to the other markets like food bazzar or target and Bjs where they have faster service and pay attention to the amount of foot traffic walking in and out the store in order to have people available on registers. usually a 30 minute wait to buy anything at all.

I've waited for months for this location to open in the Bronx. I always shopped the location in Bellville NJ. The store is organized and clean. You can find just about anything you need, if you don't mine their brands.The products prices are awesome. Plus, I love when I find the mark downs. There is also a bakery, with fresh baked items, bagels, croissants and much more. Don't forget to add their App, to save $$ and extra rewards. I had a video but can't figure how to add it. But stop by and see for yourself. Trust me you will not be disappointed.

Very rude and entitled employee. Probably do not want to be there , hate her job and customer even more. I have seen better . I almost got into an argument with that employée. Asking me if was talking to her ,with an attitude, having her earphones on , I was feeling like there was something personal. But it looks she was treating all the customers the same way.I had to apologize quick before she escalate the situation. I do not want to draw any attention on me . I apologized knowing that she was having a terrible attitude and could create a Drama. I am a customer . I believe they just opened, I don't know what is going on there. Maybe a toxic place . (The security started being disrespectful,something I didn't notice the first time .Since they don't do nothing , they will of course start harassing people). Anyway! I do not know what put her in that situation , mood, almost despising people or looking them down or whoever recruited her. They need to check that. They will lose a lot of customers. It still a job and they getting paid for it. She was very rude , unfriendly.

For this to be a new location it has already gone downhill with horrific customer service. The managers have lazy and bad attitudes especially this one female manager. The prices in the store are good but the produce is always bad! It’s either spoiled or even if it’s not spoiled has no taste. Purchased a bag of apples and this is what I seen when I got home and opened it. Last straw for me and I will not be going back to this location. This mall has food bazaar which has NEVER given me and issue, BJS, and target. That’s where I will continue to spend my money on groceries and necessities. Oh and yes the things they are saying about the security guards and bags are 100% true.

I have been to many Lidl locations and always had a great shopping experience—until my recent visit to the Bronx Terminal Market Lidl. The store itself was fine, but as I was leaving with a full cart—10 heavy bags and four children with me—I was stopped by security and told I could not take the cart out of the store unless I left my state ID with them. This policy is completely unacceptable for several reasons: 1. Privacy & Safety Concerns: My state ID has my full government name and home address. In today’s world, there is no reason why a security guard should be handling sensitive personal information just so customers can bring groceries to their cars. 2. Practicality Issues: I was told I either had to carry all my bags at once with four children in tow or give up my ID, load my car, then return to retrieve it. This is not only unsafe and unrealistic for families but also for elderly or disabled customers. 3. Inconsistency Across Locations: Other Lidl stores—and virtually every other supermarket—allow customers to take carts to designated cart-return areas in the parking lot. Expecting people to surrender ID or carry heavy bags across long distances is unreasonable, especially in a multi-level shopping complex where taxis and public transportation are on lower levels. I even witnessed an elderly woman with a cane told the same thing—she was expected to load her taxi and then come back upstairs to get her ID. That is simply not acceptable. Lidl needs to revisit and change this policy immediately. Customers deserve safety, privacy, and basic accommodation when shopping.

Lidl finally opened in Bronx Terminal Market! For those unfamiliar with the German Lidl chain, the world's 3rd largest food retailer, it's a cross between Aldi and Trader Joe's. The bulk of what it sells are its own private label items, yet it also has certain name brands complementing the selection. This Lidl BTM location is so much better than the Fredrick Douglass Boulevard store in Morningside (Harlem). For example, it's on one level, has adult size shopping carts that don't make you reach down to the floor, wider aisles, and what appears to be a larger selection - including items promoted at the FDB store but never in stock. They use digital price tags, plus it may be also that some items are sold there for lower every day prices than FDB. While you can find some items with better prices at BJ's in the same complex, (e.g., 3 lbs bags of Little Potato,) you don't have to be a member to shop at Lidl. In general, Lidl offers a selection that's worth checking out, especially if you load up on carbs or if you enjoy imported items. The fresh store-baked breads, pastries and pretzels as you enter are flavorful. They have nice packaged Cookes and an exceptional candy selection, with tasty imports. Highly recommend their ice creams, including yummy gelatos. [Note - Although some Lidl items are marked as organic, other foods may not be manufactured to the same standard's as Trader Joe's, i.e., no artificial flavors, artificial preservatives, MSG, genetically modified ingredients, partially hydrogenated fats, etc.] Then there's the treasure hunt experience of Lidl's Limited-time offering which can be divided into 2 groups: imported regional-themed gourmet foods, both shelf-stable and frozen, and non-food assortment. The foods are gourmet and well-priced. Located in this store's deemed "The Midl of the Lidl," the non-food limited time selection can be a super value item but will leave you scratching your head. I've found at their FDB location great buys on enamel-coated cast iron cookware and rubber boots, but not sure why they brought in specific-size metal brackets and 1990s-style computer keyboards. (Chainsaws were another odd item Lidl sold at the Manhattan store.) This BTM location seems to have more space allocated for this non-food Limited-time assortment. Keep in mind, I've found sometimes certain promoted fresh meats & seafood and other items in extremely limited supplies, including on occasion from the get-go "not in stock." (For example, the single whole Branzino on shelf at this Lidl.) Also, Lidl stores annoyingly don't price match their own nearby stores. Get the Lidl app, too, because you'll access solid deals via their loyalty program. Lidl is not a one-stop shop. Some really basic things you'll not find there, like light bulbs. That being said, there's Target upstairs, Home Depot downstairs, and BJ's plus Food Bazaar on the other side of the parking garage. It is however worth a visit to see for yourself.

Great prices and customer service. Will definitely be going back there. Spent less money than expected.

Came in to grab milk since i was in the area. Smelled the bread from the door walked over and grabbed a croissant. At that junture my toddler demanded the bread. She ate the whole croissant before check out. The clerk told me i should have gotten two for a discount so she charged me for 2 and i walked over and got another one which my toddler ate. Moral of the story is that the croissants are warm and tasty and smell good. The prices were reasonable and i would definitely come back if in the area.

It's easy to get to the store. It a large space, Near the BJ's. The prices are good. The only staff I spoke with was the cashier who was pleasant. The security and the people who are putting out products did not speak. The issues I came across were the frozen food prices do not match what's above or below the items. The check scanners do not work. Their machine rings of the wrong price if it has a thirty percent sticker on it. The bakery items (of which everyone goes for) are not consistent. Sometimes they over-bake the cookies (hard), danishes (burnt) and some of the breads look like they've been there all bread. The bakery area should be cleaned up more since that area is by the door and has the most traffic.

This super market is okay. Won't be visiting again simply because of the alarm that sounds when you enter as if you stole something. I understand this is an effort to stop theft but it simply made me turn around and exit.

I visit the store in the bronx at Exterior st in the mall. for the most part I really like the store. could not give it 5 stars because of a not so nice incident that occurred today. While in the store I noticed that security was watching me and payed it no mind. I put duck tape in my cart then decided I didn't want it so I placed it back on the shelf in a different area. After checking out security met me at the door asking for my receipt and to look in my bag. I had no problem with that. I gave my receipt and opened my bag. Security then said to me where's tape? I said I put it back and pointed where. I told her I don't steal. She gave me a funny look and did not apologize. That left a bad taste in my mouth. I felt I was owed an apology. I will go back, but I hope management is reading this and provides more training. Her attitude was disgusting.

Went to Lidl for frozen turkey on sale Manager said they only had fresh turkey and tomorrow when they're no longer on sale I can come back. The cashier long braids Spanish girl was rude keep saying she didn't want to be in front because she doesn't like customers. Let's see how long they last. I won't be back
