While looking to pick up a few essentials while in Berlin, I decided to come to REWE City mainly…read moredown to it being the closest supermarket to my hotel, which opens late, hence somewhere I could pick up some things to take back to my hotel such as milk and some snacks, with my hotel having a highly expensive and censored mini-bar, you take an item out you pay for it etc. This store is accessed through an escalator or lift, past a fast food chain, inside it is a decent size, it is slightly larger than most corner shops yet it isn't a huge supermarket. The selection was decent, albeit the selection of milk was really poor, they probably had more lactose-free milk and soy milk than regular and the location of them together, I found to be highly confusing, as I don't speak German either, I didn't know what I was buying. There was no staff about and those I did speak to at the till seemed to speak little English, they didn't seem helpful, they seemed a little rude, walking off to do something without saying what, in one case it was getting a bag which was charged at 10 cents, which frustrated me as I had to pay that for a paper bag. The location of this place is okay, the overall selection and size is okay, and the opening hours are good, the selection of some items even main items such as milk are poor and so is service which is a real shame, sadly because of these I feel this store deserves nothing over a two star rating.

He suggested this store over others because we wanted to buy a bottle of wine for ourselves, and the concierge said that they had a good selection. He was correct! They had a good variety of price points, and we found wine that ended up suiting our tastes. We were able to purchase bottled water (a variety of sizes to choose from and at good prices), bakery items, and fresh fruit. Most Berliners know to bring their own bag (unlike us), but we bought an inexpensive one which makes for a nice souvenir!

Ok, so I literally live across the street from this Lidl. On the one hand, I spend €20 a day here…read morefeeding my family. On the other hand, that is only because it is right next door. I often joke with my wife that it's like having our own personal pantry next door! When we need something Monday thru Saturday between 08:00 and 21:00, we just stop in! They have just enough of the basics to keep me coming back, and the price is reasonable. For more complex shopping needs, I go to the Edeka two blocks NW on Schwedter. Apart from the usual psychological trauma inflicted by the German grocery experience, my biggest complaint is how small the place is. It's not that it's not that it lacks product, it's just too small to accommodate both shoppers and stockers at the same time. There are always pallet jacks being barreled around by obviously annoyed girls that both run the registers and fill the shelves. It seems I'm always in the way and this generally earns me some pretty nasty looks from the staff. I know, I know, wasting people's time is a taboo in this culture, but sometimes there is nowhere to be when you are blocked in on one side as a pallet of pasta noodles hurls your direction. At first, my nerves were tattered by this, and I guess now I'm jaded because I just expect it and laugh at the absurdity of it all. Also, don't take your hand basket through the line. Alarms will sound as if an actual offense has taken place. No one will tell you if you naively proceed down the line toward the register. It's every man for himself in the German grocery experience. If you're new to it all, don't worry, you'll get the hang of it!

The store had a large variety of items and we were able to finally grab not only the important items that we needed but a few additional items as well. While the friendly gesture by the owner(s) was genuine and highly appreciated, the variety and presentation of the store were also spectacularly done and merit a five star review. I would recommend stopping in here if you are in the area.

What this means: you can go in there for some of the best produce in Tegel, far better than at Rewe delivery or the sad salads at Edeka. Their meat counter is also amazing, and they also have fine Turkish meze appetizers. Spices and nuts are cheap and plentiful; olives are the real deal, same brands as you'd find in Istanbul. What you will not find is things like milk, western coffee, cereal, etc. - for that, you'd have to go to the Edeka to supplement. But this place is a gem and should form the basis of your shopping. The only thing I'd really avoid here are cashews (which are really hit or miss). The owners here are super-friendly, but the main guy is really shy, barely looking you in the eye and speaking softly, with an arabesque melancholy in his voice; his humility and awkwardness make him look sad or brusque, but he's actually super-friendly. (The first time I was there, I thought he was like the Grim Reaper, and I called getting produce there "reaping.") The other workers are super helpful, either recommending the best brands of tahini or sucuk, or helping you find the dried mint. Really: go.

Compared to other supermarkets around the same area, it is outstanding. It is also much bigger than I expected, many different products and many choices for grocery shopping. Keep that in mind, the prices of the products in EDEKA are usually higher than others. If you are looking for something cheaper, this should not be the first choice. They do sell more quality goods. Besides, the old style meats section the EDEKA often offers. Here has something even more special, they got a section for fresh made Sushi. That's great news for Sushi lovers. Super nice!
