I visited the Lidl in Manassas in an attempt to get a specific brand of hot dogs: The Bar S brand in the Jumbo Jumbo size. A friend of mine claimed this brand and size were available at Lidl. The story was only half true - Lidl did have some of the Bar S brand hot dogs - but not the JJ's. So I bought what I could get - I'll check back a few times - hoping that maybe they do carry them at times. Plenty of parking, clean store, well lit and amply stocked! #Lidl read more

This review is really a complaint about the Manassas store on Liberia Ave. They've closed the self-check lines until noon every weekday. This is a terrible inconvenience for those of us who shop earlier and only buy a few items. I want to urge the store manager to open the self-check lines earlier. Otherwise I may decide not to shop at Lidl anymore. read more

This is a large Lidl in Manassas located diagonally to the Costco there. Prices are good on most everything but advertised specials tend to sell out fast. My family loves the bakery which offers surprisingly good breads and pastries and super low prices. Carts are free but be sure to remember to bring your own bags. You will also have to bag your own groceries. They seem to be understaffed a lot of the time with only one or two checkout lanes open, so be prepared to wait. Plenty of parking and spacious aisles make for a more pleasant shopping experience. read more

I shop at Lidl often, but what really sets the Manassas location apart isn't just the great prices or stocked shelves--it's the exceptional team members. Patti and Carla make every visit feel like a warm, community experience. They juggle stocking, assisting customers, and running checkout with such efficiency and kindness that it's like watching a perfectly orchestrated symphony. They are the brand ambassadors of Lidl, creating a welcoming atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. If no one else tells them, let me say--we appreciate you! (Well, at least those of us who like good service and a friendly smile! ) Lidl, I hope you see the value they bring to your brand. read more

Coming home from work today. Needed to make a quick stop at the grocery store . I had two choices. I had Lidi or Giants. If I wanted to go down a little further there's Aldi's a little further and there's Walmart. I thought well Lidi I normally have pretty good vegetables. Giants maybe the meats but not the fresh vegetable. So I chose to go Lidi , ops wrong choice . All of their fresh vegetables and fruits were rotted or spoil and molded . Molded all in the bags everything molded all it molded just ridiculous The fresh vegetable even look like they had been previous frozen . The bag fruits and stuff in the first section on the other side where the celery and asparagus you could tell it likes to have been frozen and unthawed and The sections of all the produce there was just bad . So I picked up some other stuff that wasn't in the produce section and when I got to the register I asked the cashier about the produce section , his response was ...they only had two cashier and the self check out was closed down. I said no I am talking about the produce section . The cashier In between customers seriously checking his phone , yep Literally on his cell phone Yeah So when I got to me I mentioned to him about that the produce was all bad and he was like, oh we could use some help, I I used to be over there doing that, but I'm here now. That's just ridiculous and you wonder why people shop outside of the community , that's why! What a frustrating trip. Bad produce, long lines, and employees who don't seem to care--it's like a perfect storm of grocery store disappointment. It's even worse when you expect decent quality and end up with nothing but spoiled food. No point in wasting time and money somewhere that doesn't care about quality. Next time , I will make the drive to Aldi or Walmart , and forget about convenience. Aldi is limited , so it's looking like Walmart , just have to deal with crowd , at least it fresh. Walmart or Wegmans prices ? Walmart is usually cheaper overall, especially for staples and name-brand items. Wegmans has better quality, especially in produce, meat, and prepared foods, but you'll definitely pay more. If you're looking for freshness at a good price, Walmart is probably the better bet--just gotta deal with those crowds. Technically they don't deserve a one star .. just for having their doors open. . The health department should shut them down !!! read more

Great that they have the cart to use while shopping without depositing money ,however you have to bring your own reusable bag if not you have the option of buying .10cents LIDL brand plastic bags. I found grass fed rib eye for $5.99!! goat cheese, nitrate free bacon and sausages everything with a lower price tag. (attention KETO fans!) Bakery with fresh bakes treats for that sweet spot. Nice architectural design. Modern and sleek. read more

What's all the buzz? My son who lives in Rock Hill, SC has been going to a store there & has said many positive things. I checked this location out and my conclusion: what's the buzz? It kind of reminds me of an Aldi's. I will say they have a large selection of beer & wine, if that's your thing, this place seems to have selection and price. I do like they sell a dozen large grade A eggs for 82 cents but that's not enough to make me stop going to H&T. read more

I consider this Lidl a great place to shop because of the large selection of basic foods, great location with plenty of parking, and their courteous employees (especially the cashier we had today). They have an excellent selection of fresh produce. I was surprised to see Brioche hamburger and hot dog buns available. Their bakery is well stocked with fresh baked goods at a reasonable price. Also, they have great prices on most of their items, especially their meat and canned vegetables. The store is clean, with great lighting, and all items & their prices are well labeled. We have been to this location before, but today it seemed better stocked than during any of our other visits. Our cashier/checker was very helpful and friendly. At the time we were in the store there were few customers. This could be because we were shopping around the noon time on a Monday at the end of the month. We definitely look forward to returning for more bargains. read more

My all-time favorite grocery store! This location never fails with their ample parking and selection of groceries. They have some of the most unique items inside the store that aren't food and beverage - we have found power tools, school supplies, and more inside. They have a great amount of produce and beer/wine specials. I can always find the cheapest options here so I will come by before going anywhere else. read more

6/2/19 Lidl is like Aldi's and in a way it isn't. Yes, the prices are low, but I like Aldi's more. The Lidl I went to is located in Man's asses....Manassas. Yes, the name stinks, but it is what it is. The store has a large doughnut section. The doughnut section is located right by the entrance. The selection of food big and the prices are decent. I did not mind the food and clothing arrangements, but my wife wasn't feeling it. Guess we won't be coming back here to offten. ...not unless a store opens near falls Church time will tell read more

This place is dishonest in their business practices and during a crisis time makes it even worse. They advertised .99 cents a lb chicken thighs. See the picture, the sign says .99 cent a lb chicken thighs. I bought 4 packs and the store manager tells me that is only on family packs? As I explain to her that the sign clearly reads bone in, skin in chicken thighs from Sanderson I don't understand her point? Nowhere does it say family packs on this sign and the thighs are with the sign. Do not patronize this place as their integrity is the worst I've seen. I'm not done letting everyone know. read more

I love Aldi, so I HAD to come into Lidl to see what the noise (made by my Mom) was about. First of all, DO NOT go by the other Lidl Yelp Review placing this store at 11872 Ashton Ave. Fake news - you'll end up at a wide open field of an intersection. The correct address is in this one, right next to the new Sheetz. Lidl is a freestanding building and it's pretty big. No quarter needed for a cart unlike Aldi, so that's a plus. Though they will still charge you for bags at checkout, so come prepared. They have more produce and more meat than Aldi - since it's a bigger store, there's just more things to buy in general. They also have a Costco-esque section with other non-grocery items like jeans, rugs, pots and pans, etc. The large signs above this section called them "surprises". They also have a large Bakery right where you enter with fresh baked bread, donuts, etc. This area was packed and carbs are the devil, so I didn't get a chance to look in there too much. Based on my one visit, I think I like Aldi a little bit more. It's a quieter place to shop, though I will take into consideration the fact that Lidl hasn't been open for too long. That new grocery smell is still very much in full effect here. It was maybe just a little overwhelming for me on a Sunday. They do have more brand names I recognize here at the lower price that I was anticipating, so it's certainly worth a second visit. read more

I really like this grocery store. It's a breath of fresh air to get fresh produce at a reasonable price. They have good cookies, donuts, and pastries. I went on the opening weekend and there were tons of sales but obviously that was promotional. I like the mix of practical tools and clothing items that they feature in the house items. I will miss this lively little foreign grocery store when I move out of the area. Hopefully they will put one in D.C. read more

New entry into the grocery wars, Lidl seems to be striving for the sweet spot between Aldi and Trader Joe's. Lots of private label, but more name brands than Aldi or TJ's (Coke and Budweiser, for example). The wine section is impressively large, with wines from all continents. There is a bakery on premises (with good baguettes and pretzels). There are lots of good deals in the produce section and the frozen seafood section. There is no Trader Joe's in PW County, so Lidl is a welcome entry. They should give Aldi a run for their money. read more

Typically an Aldi shopper and have gone to this location once before my trip yesterday. The first experience was okay, and the prices are comparable to Aldi but nothing special enough to make me change my routine... the kid carts and unintuitive layout made me be somewhat on the fence of returning but I went yesterday (Friday) solely based on the circular stating "weekend savings" having a good deal on steaks... so we went. Trip was fine, nothing special but at checkout we had a very off-putting experience... our steaks rang up at the wrong price so I asked the cashier to check the price. He was very helpful and said, it may be an app thing, so we scanned the app and it still didn't work. Then he grabs the circular and looks at it. At this point everything was very civil and we were handling it fine with the guy checking us out but this old lady who must have been a floor manager or something comes up and barks at him "what's a matter, what's wrong?" Even though we didn't ask for help or anything... She doesn't acknowledge us or even look at us. He says "I think the steaks are ringing up wrong" to which she slams her hand on the circular and snaps "SATURDAY AND SUNDAY ONLY" and huffs off. I really felt bad for the guy. He says "I'm sorry guys, do you still want the steak? It's okay if you don't." We we're fine with it and paid and he apologized again, thanked us and told us to have a great night... There are two ways that manager could have handled that interaction and she chose the wrong one. This lady clearly had a terrible attitude, zero customer service skills, belittled her employee, and caused her place of business to lose a customer for life. read more

I am a fan of Lidl! I discovered this store several months ago and pretty much fell in love with it. To be clear, I really don't like Aldi and I'm so glad Lidl is not the same kind of vibe. I absolutely hate the idea of paying a quarter to use a darn cart, I don't even understand that. It's like they don't trust you to bring the cart back? Do they think I am going to take the cart home with me? Anyway, I digress. Lidl in my humble opinion is a cross between Trader Joe's and IKEA. It has a European feel to it, seeing that it originated in Germany, but it also has the cool factor of TJ's. Prices are fantastic and amazing! The wine section is to die for, and on top of all this great stuff, they sell knick knacks and doo dads just for fun! You want some boots - they got em. You want a rice cooker - they got it. Each visit is an adventure. Unfortunately, they aren't perfect, hence no five stars from me. I have run across an employee or two who have not been exactly helpful. I remember asking a woman in the bread department for some help, and she wouldn't even look at me while she answered. Also, my organization was looking to speak to someone about a bulk order and I ran up against a few stone walls there. On the other hand, I once had a problem with the price of their k-cups (a misunderstanding in advertising and sales) and they followed up like a boss. The guy who called me was terrific in providing a resolution. So, take it for what's worth -- but definitely give them a try. read more

Lidl - Picking up milk - Grocery Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

Good Morning, I have attached yesterday's receipt to this email. I purchased two plain Greek yoghurt at the Manassas store and when I saw the special discounted yoghurt at the end of the isle, I purchased three more Skyr yoghurt containers that were all discounted 30%. My wife just checked the receipt and asked me why I bought a Skyr at regular price. I didn't because they all show the 30% discount sticker (picture attached to this email). So the cashier clearly missed this one. More concerning though is the purchase of the Kombucha. When I selected the Kombucha, I followed the sales sign that was attached next to it. I carefully selected the Kombucha that was referenced on the sales sign and showed I believe a $0.40 discount per bottle down to $2.49. Ironically and jokingly, my wife mentioned that Kombucha is never on sale. I looked at the receipt and noticed that all twelve bottles were not discounted and charged to my credit card at full price ($4.80). It's the rush at the checkout that makes it difficult to review and pick your items. Also, with all he technology and the plenty of staff walking around and talking to each other at that Manassas store, I'd expect that the sales signs display the correct price, the checkout system has been updated with the most recent sale items, and that cashiers pay attention to the big red sticker on products. read more

Amazing team and people always ready to help in every thing they were very helpful to me in finding items

This is one of these places that charge for bags and you bag your own stuff, literally the cashier rings you up and that's it. I had the super excited cashier that couldn't be bothered to even allow me to enter my phone number for potential savings. The interior looks like a business going out of business and the produce is sparce. I give this place no stars, I won't be back. Plus the location sucks. I'd rather go to Walmart, it's that bad. read more

I shop here quite frequently, today was a big disappointment. I can't believe how bare the produce area was!! No prices on anything, empty produce boxes and no inventory, no the typical Lidl I'm accustomed to shopping at; the rest of the store was pretty much the same. They had 2 cashiers open and 4 self checkout cashiers. This doesn't seem to be a good ending for Lidl in Manassas. read more

Welcome to America Lidl! The newest addition to Northern Virginia, Lidl is a German Grocery store that (in my opinion) is like a mixture between a Costco, without a membership, and an IKEA. The store is very modern and the staff is friendly, even on Day One! They have a mixture between no-name brands (that look like name-brands) and name brand products. Everything is organized and well kept. Prices were very low! For example, Milk was $1.88 and Apples were around $1.69. The selection was very vast, as well. They had things from milk to meats to clothing and shoes! I am very glad they have moved into America and I hope they open more locations in Northern Virginia. I highly recommend this place to others! read more

Lidl - The Front (Evening) - Grocery Near Me - Manassas, Virginia

See all

Good and easy service. Open hours and location is also well suited. Keep up the good work.

Went to this store out of curiosity since announced by the media. The store is bright and clean as you'd expect a brand new attire to be. An advantage over Aldi, their direct competition, is they don't charge a quarter to get a cart. The selection of cheeses and meats were ok but their canned goods and produce was small. You have to look at the size of the product for the dollars you are spending. Their were several items that seemed like a good value but when compared with other stores the value dissipated. The biggest selection was their alcohol and of course it is at the front of the store so if you take your kids they will get that alcohol is important and takes precedence over other food. It's a complaint I have with most stores but Lidl has outdone the competition. The biggest shock came at checkout. I was informed you have to buy bags. There was no warning of this requirement at the entrance our anywhere else in the store. Even the big box stores have boxes recycled from their products. Overall, the trip to Lidl wasn't worth it especially with a Wal-Mart close by that has better selection, prices, and value. read more

Pronounced like "needle" Before I went to this place I thought it would be a lot of Aldi. It's similar to Aldi in that they have their own brands, but that's where it ends. It's much bigger than Aldi. They have a fresh bread section. It's more comparable to Giant except that the store brand items are good. My blood is green thanks to all the energy drinks I consume. Monster is my staple, but it's very expensive. This place has a store brand called "Mega Energy", and let me tell you, the taste is better than Monster. They also have a zero calorie Mega Energy which is damn good, and it was only 79 cents. Yeah. The beer section is split like 50/50 between store brand and brand names. They have what looks like a knock-off Budweiser and what seems to be a Heineken. They also have some what I call "other". I'm sucking down right now a blonde Gauloise imported from Germany. It's not bad. I mean, it's not fantastic, but it will stand up proudly next to most of the $20 craft beers out there. The bread section has donuts and a variety of breads and rolls. To test I took a couple of croissants. They were good. Fresh. Soft. I'll be back for more of that. I checked out the produce section which wasn't as big and diverse as Global Foods, but it had everything an American family wants. One strange thing, we went there on opening day, and the bananas were yellow with brown spots on them. You know what I'm talking about. You'd think they would, on opening day at least, get some perfect fruit out there. Weird. Another difference between this place and Aldi is that there are a lot more employees walking around stocking shelves and running the cash register. You don't need a quarter to get a shopping cart. So those are my impressions. It's worth checking out. read more

I am a regular shopper at Lidl and I normally love going into the store. Today, however was the worst experience I have ever had. I do not wear a mask going into any store and I have never felt so harassed. I walked into the store, an employee made a B-line for me and immediately, very rudely, told me I needed to wear a mask. I had politely said that I am unable to wear one and thanked him for the concern. He then spat back at me and demanded I gave him my medical record stating so. I had told him he cannot ask me for such information and he had walked off. I had continued my shopping with my 3 year old daughter. 5 minutes later, the store manager approached me and had told me I needed to wear a mask. I had informed him that one of his employees asked for my medical records and the store manager had completely ignored that. He had then told me he would call the police, I told him he is more than welcome to! He had then walked off, came back with a piece of paper and said he needed MY personal information! I am very unhappy with this. My medical records are private information and being harassed stating that I need to give information about myself and my medical history is completely unacceptable! This is the Lidl at: 11782 Sudley Manor Dr, Manassas, VA 20109 read more

I've been wanting to check this place out for a while. Was not disappointed. Lidl is a German grocery chain and rivals Aldi in Europe. They are just beginning their US expansion and DC metro is their pilot market. If this is what US grocery stores are up against, Safeway, Giant etc is doomed. Similar price point to Aldi's and very similar concept. But, a little more selection and variety. It's a little more expensive than Aldi's. Our weekly grocery bill trends around $77 at Aldi. It's about $90 for comparable goods at Lidl. Mostly private label but also brand name stuff too. I think their produce selection is a little better than Aldi's. They also have more retail goods. I'd describe it as somewhere between a Costco, Aldi and Trader Joe's. Incredibly clean store and great shopping experience. Their private label energy drinks have zero sugar and taste identical to Red Bull - for $.59. I'll be back just for those ; ) They also have a E-coupon program, big fan. I can clip and QR at check out. Great concept. Fresh bakery puts this place over the top! read more

Was looking forward to the recently opened Lidl. Not impressed with the first store in Northern Virginia, located in Manassas. The bakery section is the only notable exception. Not great but pretty good rolls and bread. Aside from that, there's really nothing much to rave about. They have Irish butter, but no German butter, go figure. Also no Quark (Topfen) at all. Groceries are decent, but nothing much stands out. I understand, that they are trying to become an American supermarket, catering to the American consumer. There are a couple of isles with K-Mart style cheap kitchen ware, clothing and other rather useless junk. These items take up a lot of room, I just doubt they will be big sellers or moneymakers. Worst, this particular location opened right across Costco, still scratching my head about that decision somebody must have made. Lidl was supposed to open 100 stores in 2017, only 43 actually opened. That says something about poor planning and/or expectation. I would love for Lidl to succeed. For this to happen though, they need to understand, why people like myself are going there. I want to buy a piece of Germany, recognize a brand, fill a void. Americans with German roots are often referred to as the silent minority (44 millions in 2016). That should be the focus of your offerings, understanding their cravings for Old World food and non-food items and their purchasing power behind it. I sure hope, that early growing pains will give way to some sort of recognition on where your true market is, until then, I can find more authentic German items at any World Market location. read more

A cross between aldi and trader joe's. Decent selection of items. A few items like bread, and a couple of fruits were cheaper than other stores. Overall, a good place to find some specialty items like indian style frozen dinners but a whole week's worth of shopping prices are not better than Walmart. The listing showing the address on Ashton Ave. is incorrect. The address that shows on my bank statement is the address for this listing. read more

Slowest Lidl I have ever been in. Cashiers move slower than slow and cannot fathom moving on while a manager responds. I know it's possible because they do it in my local store. 15 minutes in line is unacceptable. Make that 20 minutes and manager solved nothing. Will never return. read more

I used to like their frozen buffalo wings because it's good and plenty enough for my family. But I was so disappointed when I recently bought two bags. When I got home and opened it there were only drumsticks and a wing. Once again, Lidl never cease to frustrate and disappoint me. 1) They can never seem to keep up with the consumer demands: 2) they reduce the cash registers during busy hours leaving customers to use the self check out registers to save money on labor 3) the quality of their products seem to be declining to increase profit. 4) the cleanliness has been neglected due to shortage of staff, again to reduce labor & increases profit. ALDI IS STILL BETTER 1) they might have a few registers open but they have very fast cashiers 2) their products on sale are always available 3) more selections and most importantly - they have good customer service. read more

They import their own brand so they have items you won't find anywhere else in the US like delicious frozen cakes from France or Germany, authentic items at crazy prices that would be 3 to 4 times more expensive at Balducci or specialized stores. You have to know this store before to understand this gem... read more
