Pros: I mainly shop here for cheese, chicken breasts, organic microwave popcorn, some produce, lunch meat, and yogurt. I've gotten other things, from ice cream bars to pickles, and I've been satisfied with most. The only products I haven't cared for are their brand wavy chips, and their brand honey wheat pretzels. I find both to be tasteless. Paper products have been satisfactory. Cons: Customer service is lacking. I'm at this location every Saturday- have been going for several months. I haven't had one employee smile at me, greet me, etc. Its never crowded when I'm there, but I sense some hostility from the workers stocking the shelves. I avoid regular checkouts as much as possible, due to the unfriendly workers, and the way checkout is handled. I find it very rushed. Self checkout took some getting used to, but I prefer it. You have to bag your own groceries either way, but at least at self checkout, you can go at your own pace. Some tips...if you'd rather not bag as you go, choose "brought own bag" option, then continue. Stack items on their scale as you scan them. This cuts down on errors that require assistance. Then either bag in your car after you've paid, or at your car. Makes it go much more smoothly. read more

Went to Lidl for the first time as I received a flyer that had several things I wanted to try. After attempting to navigate this mess of a store, I found 3 of the items...out of about 10/12 I had starred on the flyer. I found an employee who "explained" that every store doesn't carry all the items on the flyer and they "probably" didn't have the items I was looking for. (WTH??) Not I will help you look...let me check- none of that. I decided to buy my 3 items and get out of there. As I am signed up to receive notifications from PWC POLICE on crime in the neighborhood, I got one several days later that said SKIMMERS had been found at the registers at the Dumfries and Woodbridge LIDL locations. The registers are at the front of the store, some manned by employees. I assume there are cameras focused on the register areas. THIS IS NOT A OUTSIDE ATM OR GAS STATION SITUATION. I immediately contacted my CC Company and they cancelled my card to send another. Anyone who has done this knows what a pain in the behind this is. No one noticed someone at an inside register attaching skimmers to their registers???? NO....not buying it....my thought is employee. I WILL NEVER EVER BE BACK TO ONE THESE CESSPOOLS AGAIN.....and if you do not want your info STOLEN I don't suggest you do either. read more

Ii came here this morning to buy a few sundry items to carry me thru the week. The first thing on my list was a gallon of skim milking a half gallon of Tropicana orange juice. Ax I was walking through the isles I noticed a couple of other things gs that I didn't necessarily need but that I wanted. The Black Forrest ham looked very appealing and the price was also very competitive. Then I saw the mild cheddar string cheese which is something that I have always loved to snack on. I then went on to get some frozen waffles, and Purex laund4y detergent. The store was fairly. Usy but I didn't notice too many employees working at the registers. The general atmosphere of the store is extremely basic, and I guess it's what helps keep the prices low. read more

Lidl - a grocery store aisle filled with food - Grocery Near Me - Dumfries, Virginia

Lidl is the needle in the grocery store haystack! I love this palace of conveniently priced grocery items and then some!!!! From the fresh bakery items to the fresh produce all the way back to the frozen selection there's no doubt you will find what you need! No, everything's not name brand but the quality is still there without the strain on your pockets. You can definitely stretch your dollars!! Any grocery trip is not complete without a stroll down the wine and beer aisle!! All things considered they have a wide variety for you to chose from! There is plenty of parking and don't forget your bag/bags if you do no need to fret, you can use your savings on your groceries to purchase one in store. Make sure you download the app too!!! There are coupons, recipes and you can see what's on special before you get there! I was so excited to be here, I forgot to check in or even take any pics. Talk about living in the moment!!! It's okay I'll be back before the end of the week!! Welcome to the neighborhood Lidl!!!! read more

Great store if you are trying to save money. Decent selection but sometimes the produce can be sketchy. There's either one register open or no registers open. Very slow assistance when you need it. read more

Used to be one of my fav place to shop both Lake Ridge & Dumfries area but I noticed that they're only good in their first year while not so many stores are open yet. I hate to leave 1 star but I'm so disappointed with many reasons. I understand that more people get vaccinated but they're open the cookie & pastry bar just like pre-covid. I saw a man grabbed pastries with barehands and also put his cellphone inside the display to facetime someone to show the products close up. The staff was sitting behind and didnt say anything. The price is getting higher but quality is getting lower? I understand staff also tired because they have to multitask and EXPECT all customers using self checkout ^_^ I'll still planning on comin back but not as much as I used to. I'd rather pay extra but less headache read more

Can I give less than 1 star?!? MOLDY products when you open their packages!! This is a health hazard!! How's their other products? I've tried 2 different locations and BOTH times received spoiled unhealthy products!! Shop at your own risk!! read more

Lidl - And THIS made it off the assembly line? Poor quality control! - Grocery Near Me - Dumfries, Virginia

See all

Lidl Lidl Lidl, how you so cheap yet so good? This location opened up pretty recently and I've been going every weekend for a solid 4-5 weeks. I CONSTANTLY save an average of $10-$15 on my weekly groceries by stopping in here as opposed to going to other grocery stores. The products are not usually brand name, although they do have their share of name brand items available. If you want to save money you have to be okay with skipping the name brands and going for some oddly named products. My favorite products to get here (so far) are their tea variety packs, bread ($1.25 for whole wheat good bread), and their beer! They have some fun alternatives to your usual high priced beer. From Light beer to IPA's they have a nice variety. Last but not least, their bakery section. Shout out to Lidl for always having fresh baked goods, NO MATTER what time you come in. I love stopping in for a late night cookie, or a few donuts/muffins for the upcoming week. If you like saving a few bucks and don't mind the non-brand name foods this is the place for you. read more

Lidl - the inside of a grocery store - Grocery Near Me - Dumfries, Virginia

My Recommendation Do not go there they don't respect their customer at all specially if you look different.!!! I were in the line waiting people behind me someone cut the line in front of us .cashier did nothing I told manager did nothing too they didn't even offer any apology . it was the worst costumer service read more

Great prices! They rotate sales weekly so be sure to check and see because sometimes you can get really great deals. They do have a store card you can sign up for, you can use there app or your phone number. The store is really clean and we always can get in and out with no problems! read more

Great selection of produce and food items - clean store, friendly staff. I almost got my hand stock on the automatic conveyor belt for groceries. VERY VERY DANGEROUS. A child could get hurt in this or a scarf or keychain stuck in it. Definitely get rid of the automated function or else Lidl is looking at huge negligence and liability lawsuits. .12 cents for cheap Paper bags with handles that tear and break. read more

Oh Lidl, you have a very special place in my heart. First off, you can't beat the prices. The produce, bakery, & meats are all reasonable priced. The app offers daily coupons & organic foods are priced at an affordable rate. The produce is fresh, crisp, & absolutely delicious. The bakery section of the store offers donuts, bagels, croissants, muffins, bread, cookies, & so much more (all made fresh). Second, the service is phenomenal. The lines stay moving & staff are happy to answer any questions. There are also staff on each checkout line, unlike other big name stores (you know which one I'm talking about). Third, it's not as busy as other grocery stores in the area. Big win in my book. It was definitely popping when it first opened, but has calmed down a lot in the past week or so. Fourth, everything is fresh. You can tell that the food is of high quality! Fifth, the company is eco friendly. They encourage you to bring your own bag for groceries. If you end up forgetting, they do sell paper bags as well. The only downside is that they do have a tendency to run out of things. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with how new the store is or if this is a common factor in all Lidl's. Other than that, I will definitely keep shopping here in the future! It's location is extremely convenient & their prices just can't be beat elsewhere. If you haven't stopped at this Lidl, do it on your next grocery trip. You won't be disappointed. read more

Lidl is great! You always find stuff you don't need but always wanted. Musts: -Sweet red wine -steaks! When they are on sale -eggs! Don't forget to download the Lidl App to get extra $$$ read more

You have to know what to expect when shopping here. No fancy stuff and it doesn't have a dozen choices for every item. It does have great prices on breads, veggies, cheese, milk, bread, eggs...you get the picture. There's a large wine selection, too. I've tried a number of their brand products and have been pleased with all. There's a middle section that's usually messy but you can find anything from microwaves to seasonal stuff. Take your own bags and get ready to save money. read more

This has to be the laziest Lidl location! I loved it when it first opened but I despise it now and will only shop here if I really need to. Why even have employees show up to work when they don't do anything? I wish they would open more of the regular check out lines but every time I go only the self checkout is available. Avoid this location at all costs and go to the Lidl on Liberia in Manassas...thank me later! read more

I suggest that they change the bread display to cover up the bakery items with closures. Lidl used to be my weekly stop for breakfast items. I used to love getting the fresh baked bread until I noticed the increasing amounts of gnats and flys hovering on top of the breads. I no longer buy anything from lidl unless I see something I really want from their weekly ad. read more

I love this store. I've never had a rude employee. In fact, they're always willing to help. Check out is easy and if the line is long, go find someone and ask for another register to be opened. With staffing shortages, they don't always realize there's a line. I love the bakery and meat selection. The filet mignon is fantastic! I come here a few times a week. read more

I literally hate this place so much!!! It's so depressing in there. They barley have anything. In my opinion it's a waste of my time. Also Rose-Marie if you still work there? You are the complete worse manager I have ever seen. You are rude,unpleasant and very mean. I really wish Lidl will go out of business here in America because I think this store is honestly a waste of space. In this case 1 star = no star read more

This store was a hot mess all the way from beginning to end. I pulled in and there are carts all over the parking lot and only one cart drop off spot I could see. We get into the store and start at produce. I had to sort through almost everything to find decent produce that wasn't molding and the bakery was a picked over mess. The aisles were mislabeled and I spent most of my time walking in circles trying to find the things on my list. Overall it seems like the store was thrown together and rushed to open. Headquarters really needs to come in and give the whole place a reset. a class on customer service wouldn't hurt either because the cashier seemed miserable and not one person we saw working there bothered to ask if we were doing ok. the Lake Ridge location has set the bar and this location needs to catch up. I went next door to Shoppers afterward to get the items I couldn't find and met other Lidl customers in the parking lot that had the same complaints, so it's not just me! read more

I have been looking forward to this store opening since it was announced. I've been 3 times now in the past couple weeks and find that the prices on the specials are really good, but there's not a huge selection (expected this) and most of the prices are higher than Aldi. I hate going to Aldi because of traffic, but will probably remain a customer there just because of the price difference. I couldn't find a number of things I needed but this might change as I get more used to their layout. About 1/4 of the store is wasted on tennis shoes and things I would never buy from the grocery store. Also one thing that REALLY bothered me were the fruit flies. They were everywhere, and even saw several on the baked goods due to the open design of the bins. It made me skip the baked goods altogether. Edit: also the front entrance. It's super hot and like walking into a sauna. Please put some fans or something in there, at least when it's 87 degrees and 100% humidity! read more

I love this place! Great prices and good food. Seem to be the same name brands on their off brands. I cannot tell the difference in taste. The ground turkey isn't that great unfortunately. Bones are ground with the meat. Messed up my spaghetti. Not too happy. The ground chicken and pork are great. They carry grass fed beef, antibiotics free chicken, and fresh regular and organic veggies. They also sell house and gardening wares. The prices on their wine are awesome as well. Beer too. read more

First time shopping at Lidl and it was nice! This store is clean, organized, & has a great selection of groceries! The prices are great especially for organic foods. Be sure to bring your own bags... they sell paper bags for 7 cents! read more

I'm so obsessed with this store. The prices are right, the produce is good, meat selection is great (although no actual meat counter--just FYI) and it's incredibly clean and organized. Unlike other budget grocery stores, I am able to come here with a nice and complicated recipe and leave with every ingredient. Brand selection is nice and I love the odds and ends they carry-- my daughter particularly likes the wooden toddler play toys. Thanks for being so awesome! Don't forget your reusable bags!! read more

Great location and prices though I have a hard time with the cluttered set up. If you are looking for great prices (especially on produce) this is the place for you. read more

I like Lidl with some of their options on food and their competitive prices, but this store just opened up, and it seems very rushed. The whole store seems mostly unorganized, and didn't flow with grouping a lot of like items together at times. At least they have all of the alcohol in one place. The store was clean at 4:30 this afternoon, but the one little item we needed for dinner tonight, a can of green chili, we had to go next door to shoppers for. Also, the wife found some of the items with a dark colored mold growing on them (bell peppers). Not going to lie, pretty disappointed with this store. Looks like we will keep traveling to the Lake Ridge location when we want to shop Lidl. read more

For over a week, the self-checkout was closed at the Dumfries location. It forced all shoppers to go to ONE checkout line. The sole employee flew groceries down the conveyor belt so fast, customers were clustered around, trying to get their groceries bagged. Could I find a manager to ask why the self-checkout was closed? No. The LIDL business model seems to be to employ as few humans as possible. If you don't mind having your dignity and self-worth assaulted by a corporation that disdains those traits, sure, buy their stuff. read more

This store is new and shiny but their produce leaves a lot to be desired. They have a fantastic bread, cookie station that's on point but it's just something about it that doesn't give you the best atmosphere. You still have to pack your own with your own bags or you can buy bags. They have more than Aldi but it's still just an Aldi on crack! read more

Good experience so far. Management and staff are friendly and responsive. Also like their offerings.

This store seems to always be out of the items they have on sale. If you want to get the weekly sale items get there early or you will be out of luck. read more

This place is terrible. Customer service is horrible. Also, your self check out is frustrating when every scan requires a employee to bypass it. I won't return, I'd rather pay more and go to a real grocery store read more

Great prices on organic grass fed meat. Wish they had more organic produce.. but you end up paying a fraction on spices, canned goods etc. that you can afford the extra trip elsewhere for organic produce. They leave stuff in boxes, you bag your stuff and don't have cart recepticles in the lot so the customer does the extra work but this way they can pay their employees well and still give you a great deal. I did call corporate to inquire whether or not their lidl brand bottled water is bpa free, as it is not advertised as such- my number and email were taken and I never heard back. read more

Worst customer service ever, came to register when the light was green and register was open, cashier saw us as we started putting groceries on belt and walked away, so I asked the the supervisor there that if someone could help us, cashier came back with attitude on his face, no greeting, rang all the things and didn't even say what the total was, in the end handed the receipt without even thanking, never shopping here again, they have a lot of competition in the area and they give this kind of service, it will be closing soon. read more

Just visited for my first time and was truly disappointed by the lack of help available at check, especially self- checkout. 3 of the 4 self- checkout stations were malfunctioning, and no help was in sight. Lines were long, and the feeling as we walked in as chaos. read more

Well this was my first trip to Lidl. The prices are great they have a wide variety of things to choose from, from food to tools and so much more. Other than the rude cashier Ayanna working on register 4 it was a great experience. read more

The store is bright and clean with friendly helpful employees. Lidil's stocks their own brands and carries some european brands for variety. They carry the best veggie burgers and their cheese is downrite cheep and delicious. read more

This must be the worst grocery store that I've ever visited anywhere in the world this past week they've only had one cash register open with lines of people lined up to get served the automated registers closed off the manager of the store came out to help the only guy who was open with the problem and then went back to the office with 14 people in the line And gain on Saturday night same thing so I called for the manager at that time he told me the policy is with more than two people in the line to open up another register that just doesn't happen like this I felt all I was being told was a bunch of BS call him on it called customer service the first time got hung up on three times finally spoke to the guy and he said he would get the regional manager to call me back never happened here we are again Saturday night the guy on the customer care line knows all about this problem but yet the regional manager cannot do their job and fix the problem if you've got a store you've got to have more than one register open it's very clear that the manager of the store doesn't care the regional manager doesn't care the customer care give you a big BS line and a store assistance give you a BS lines tied of shopping Here it probably would be better to frequent an American owned company anyway they may care more than what Germany does Who own this company read more
