Lidl has some items that are great deals and others that are expensive depending on what it is…read more Best to check their weekly ad to see what the best deals are for the week. Some deals are limited time meaning only on the weekend. They have some interesting items from time to time. I've gotten a kid's play kitchen for my daughter for a great price a couple years ago. They tend to have great toys especially around the holidays that are priced well. The appearance of the store has run down in the last couple of years. Noticeably some of the floors wore out from ware and tare. They also reduced the number of cashier check outs and have focused more on self-checkouts. They recently installed anti theft barriers when you enter and exit the store. When you pay now in the self checkout area you need to scan your receipt to exit the area. There is an employee there still to help out at the self checkout area if someone needs assistance or you prefer to check out with them if there are no regular cashier lines open.

This is another newer Lidl here in Merrick. I am also glad that LIDl came here. This is a…read morebig-bright-spacious store with wide isles and plenty to choose from. They clearly take many steps to bring you as much food as they can at the best prices they can. Great food selection, service from their very helpful team members. Since this is part of an International chain, most stores mirror each other. I came to a LIDL while in Poland and the look and feel is exactly the same. First time in this location and still managed to buy a fair amount of groceries. Remember... This is not your King Kullen or Stop & Shop. It is not the place to come for all your name brand items. This is how they're different. They move a lot of product here. Very simply displayed. They also have nice wide isles. Makes it easy to move around This is not a flashy store. Works for me... Less glitz more value pricing. In some cases, they cut the box and put it on a shelf. Again, just another way to save us some money on our grocery bills. They also have a very comprehensive supply of meats here too. There are no butchers, fish counters or bakeries here. All the food is packaged in refrigerators and freezers. This is a large location and I was very impressed with the amount of freezers here. Most brands are house brands, hence the ability to save some money on your shopping bills. Bakery items are all packaged. They still have a fair amount of well know brands. Remember to bring your own bags, they are not supplied by LIDL I think they'll do well as people become accustomed to their methodology and I definitely recommend this store.

They are always so nice to my daughter when we go. They have free stickers at the register which change seasonally. It's my daughter's favorite part going here. There is always cute designs.

Associates will go above and beyond to help you find a product you are looking for. The isles are always clean and well organized. My only complaint is the parking lot. It is one of the most challenging parking lots to get in and out of. I had to sit and wait 10 minimum for someone to leave to get a spot.

Stop and shop does not change to much from location to location and neither does my review. I just…read moretailor it to the specific area. Stop and shop is definitely my favorite of all the chain markets and this location is my favorite among the stores. It's big, bright and clean... The shelves are always stocked and everyone is helpful (especially navigating your way through this food warehouse.) There are in a large shopping center so there is always plenty of parking. It may get more challenging during peak periods, but that's to be expected. We now use our phone as a scanner to make our purchases. It makes the whole shopping process extremely easy... especially on the checkout side. They have a good (and well stocked) meat department. They always seem to have a plentiful supply of frozen fish. There is a good bakery with plenty of selections of cakes, cookies and breads. There are many freezers of frozen foods and they are always having good sales on them as well. I have always been impressed with their fresh fruits and vegetables which are also strategically located around the prepared foods, cheeses, and specialty gourmet items. It is definitely a value store and you must be sure to get a "savings card" to take advantage of the preferred pricing. But... do not fret. If you do not have a card or leave yours at home the cashiers always keep a "house card" available for their customers. They have good sales and we try to take advantage of them. Make sure you bring your own bags or you're charged (.05) for each bag you use. Cashiers smile, say hello and thank you for shopping at their store. You'll never see them standing around texting their friends. Most of the time I try to use the self checkout. These store definitely stands out in the sea of grocery markets located in Nassau County.

A friend recommended it and despite her high praise, even she undersold it. You must get the hummus (I opted for the pine nut) and Turkish eggplant dip (a small container of each will run you $9-10 so it is not cheap but it is worth it). Each dip has the perfect thickness (not to watery or too thick) and was delicious. I heard good things about the bourekas and they had a new brisket boureka out so I bought a pack (10 or so in the package for $22, sold frozen). You heat them in the oven or toaster oven at 350 degrees for 20min. They were absolutely delicious, perfect texture (crunchy outside, soft inside) and the meat inside had so much flavor. For dessert we bought the baklava and pistachio mamoul. Everyone raved about the baklava and I really liked the pistacho mamoul as they were not too sweet (don't let the powdered sugar on the outside fool you). A very kind lady helped me find everything (though if you spend 5min walking around the store which is not that big, you can find everything yourself). Again, everything we bought was absolutely delicious and while it is not inexpensive, you get your money's worth. Absolutely worth checking out, I would be a regular here.

I'm a huge falafel fan and it's surprising that this is the first time I tried this local store…read more They are stocked with excellent kosher and vegan specialties. I will surely come back and shop here for my family gatherings. The one small criticism I have: for many many years, growing up in Forest Hills, Queens, where we patronized an original great falafel place, I always came to order 2 HALF falafel, rather than a whole. It's much easier to eat it when cut (simple sandwich principle). This place charged me 2 x $8 for the halves, when a whole falafel is just $13. That's a big difference for what is essentially the same thing. Just saying.

North Shore Farms is an amazing supermarket. They are not the biggest but they certainly pack a…read morebig punch. I truly do not know where to start. They have so many food services available to the public. I want to start with their AMAZING bakery. The best bread in NYS! They make all kinds of "designer breads and rolls" including their bacon and egg baked into a flat bread. Pizzas, meat breads and any other items. If you can think about it, it's probably there. They have custom meat cutting as well as a very well stocked meat isle. Their seafood department is top notch. They have everything and you can always count on the fact that it's fresh. They also have a vast amount of prepared dishes that just need to be cooked or heated up. The deli area is also amazing.... They have their own NSF meats as well as Boar's Head and other specialty brands. The 'fresh soup' area sits right by the deli counter. Plenty of fresh vegetables and cheeses. The dairy selection is also quite extensive. They have a fantastic sushi section. It would not be fair to write about NSF and not mention their amazing team here. Everyone here is friendly and helpful. There are just not enough good things to say about NSF. All their stores follow the same model so you always know what to expect... EXCELLENCE! Kudo's to the team at North Shore Farms.

Small, medium, large, seeded, unseeded, semolina, whole wheat - bread - Toscana looks best - but Ciabatta stays good until the next dag. Regular and semolina Italian - round loaves - baking right there rows of dough being proofed. 2) Customer service. I have never been treated better by any store of something not right - they make it right in 10 seconds with a smile. Label? Good enough. No angry girls - girls that are cool, open more lines up - help bag - your way - just a culture of warm and where you want to shop. Desert? Ah lol a few perfectly good basic cheesecakes - fresh and with fruit or plain. Cookies - some- things in from other places - yes fluff pound cake- baklava- a few things plus more of their own. Seafood - fresh enough for me to buy their seafood salad for lunch on the way home - have bought shrimp, cod etc all good - and active!! Tomato sauce heaven - various tomatoes, and jar sauces - bigger selection if in the mood for a different kind etc. Michaels of Brooklyn - a few kinds, Leonards! Yum - two kinds - basil or marinara. Even the fun Scalfani jar.. for quick marinara at home just like in Little Italy if you don't want to cook your own. fresh pasta, mozzarella, salads, fruit bowls, daily soups and a deli. Deli is good but not close to hot foods needing reheating of Ivareone - but I'm less of a reheating deli person. A few things thats it. Id say second in deli of the four or five main places people go. There is a sushi guy making takeout rolls. Holiday time - warm bread needed? Bookmark for when in the area for easy grab and go om the food - bread a fast moving line if mid day.

Time to update this review…read more After my continued frustration with the curbside pickup four years ago, I only came here to get fuel. Almost two years ago, I noticed they designed dedicated parking spaces for curbside pickup. No more guessing where to park. I took a chance and ordered online. I am happy I did!
