Got all the items i needed for a great price! The kids enjoyed as well the supermarket! I was so shocked when the bill came out to less than $40 for the items i needed. The only interaction i had was with the check out gentleman who thanked me for shopping. Store was cleaned except for one spilled by the yogurts. read more

I really like this lidl. Admittedly, there needs to be more cashiers and the store could be kept tidier but their fruit and veg is very good. I stopped buying at the larger supermarkets because the quality is not as good. Best OJ, price on milk remarkably lower and their flowers are great. Staff is always nice too. read more

Was in the area and really liked the orange juice that Lidl has. The orange juice is the best I have evert had. I bought 3 containers to take home with me. The store has a large selection and prices for what I sore was fair. If I am in the area again I will definitely come here again. read more

Well, I went to lidlin Massapequa New York about three weeks of chopped chicken put one in the freezer and the other one in the refrigerator for the next day. I opened it up such a smell in there that I thought I was vomit . About a week later I take the one out of the freezer and open that up and that also had the smell that I thought I was out. Threw them both out and not go back to same store last July 7 comeback same thing with the chicken. I don't know what's going on but my going to I've called and complained about the dirty store now I've complained about the This is a place of business where you handle food all day and if the store is not clean now, you know why the chicken is not good so I will not be going back to that store or any of stores. My sister had gone store in another neighborhood came back opened up the chicken same she had to bring it back so I think maybe you should stop and think about where you're shopping for your meat. read more

Lidl - Grocery Near Me - Plainview, New York

The Europeans are here and I'd say let the grocery wars begin but it was more of an IKEA / Stu Leonards light look feel and quality. An 89 year old company with 10,000 plus stores is spreading out over the island and renting out closed retail spaces. Bringing European economics and goods with it. Police here to calm the crowds .. in Plainview? The most disaffected shoppers likely in the world. Hahaha. The unions showed up with blow up rats not getting the contracts to build. And lines formed and a DJ played and giveaways included bags and cookie cutters and ornaments for your tree that said Lidl. Hm. Lidl knows how to do a grand opening. Loud music starting at 730 made it fun. It's no Trader Joe's. It's no Fairway. It's no Johns Farm and it's not The old ShopRite. It's smack in the middle of Plainview. Arguably Long islands most demanding consumers. And it brings some loss leaders and discounts on items mixed in with regular items and prices. Kaiser rolls looking too paltry.. hmm proud to be an American and get to a deli.. sourdough bread with thyme.. mm I'll take one of those. And did. Generic items always fun to see and try like no name ketchup and mayo. Salmon on sale sensibly raised... hmm this is wild caught salmon please land. And the savings might or might not matter. Single source chocolate. yum. Lots of it and beyond fairly priced. Win for Madagascar dark chocolate bars. Tasted a sample and would recommend. Apples weren't labeled local. Not cool for New Yorker's who like to buy from their area. Maybe I missed some that were will check again. Go local save small biz and reduce the transport footprint. Regular OJ no fresh squeezed like Best Market or Stu's or Fairway. So a no go for juice. Bob and weave around here for some values on some dairy not all. Some chips and condiments. Most of the cookies were made with Palm oil. Made me think of how overpopulated the world is and how many people need food produced for them. I may be spoiled by the east ends sustainable north fork local produce and vibe. Also right here, the luxury of being in the epicenter of Ivarrone Bros, Johns Farms, Fairway and TJs, but I can appreciate what this store does for millions. It's volume approach will likely be a hit some places. Plainview will be the question. Will it be a hit here? Will see. For now over to TJs for some good cheese and crackers for the holiday then over to Johns for the best selection of imported Pannetone in NY. read more

Coronavirus Diary Day 85 - 6/7/2020 This Lidl seems a little slow for a Sunday afternoon. There was no line to get in. I picked our usual stuff like we did in other Lidls. I found a six-pack of wheat beer for $5.99. It tasted alright considering the price! read more

Lidl - Grocery Near Me - Plainview, New York

This location feels so spacious compared to East Meadow! Located in Morton Village plaza, they offer a wider selection than in East Meadow. I enjoy perusing the aisles to see what catches my eye. Sometimes the prices here just can't be beat! Have you ever seen a pineapple for 79¢? And it was fresh; not from reduced sale. If you don't believe me, just refer to my photos. I also encountered sunkist lemons for 99¢/bag. Brand name lemons! Wow! Household staples are reasonably priced. How about a dozen of Extra Large eggs for 69¢ or just large eggs for 56¢? Go nuts at the nuts/trail mix sold by weight section in one of the aisles. I came to this location for a foldable basket, a deal at $4.99! Unfortunately they were out of stock. When they advertise "while supplies last!" they really mean it! Lidl has their own app but it is really not accurately reflect stock in real time. I stopped by the East Meadow location on the same day because the app indicated there was stock; however it was sold out there too. The only thing I find really annoying is how difficult it can be to locate sale items. I end up criss crossing back and forth to find all the items on my shopping list. It's a good thing there are usually friendly employees restocking shelves who don't mind showing you where the item is. I enjoy their selection of jams (some come from Germany!) I stock up on their marshmallows too, and their really affordable organic ketchup (no High Fructose Corn Syrup). Give these European brands a chance; they ban some of those food additives that the FDA doesn't ban! Lidl sells lavender honey which my friend recommended and I have been trying to hunt down. I enjoy shopping here and hope you will too. read more

This might be my new favorite food store. I know this place gets mixed reviews, but I've been pretty happy every time I've shopped here. This has become my go-to place to get my kitchen staples like my fruits and veggies, bread, and cheese, and they have great prices on chicken (not sure about the rest of the meat, as I don't eat it). I think their prices are fair, the store is clean, and it's never crowded. My only complaint is that they don't always have the items listed in the circular (sometimes they sell out right away, but other times they just don't carry them in general). I don't think you can compare this store to a ShopRite or Stop and Shop. It's definitely not as big, and they don't carry as many brands, but I like their selection on the essentials. read more

My mom kept telling me that she was really enjoying Lidl and that I should check it out. I kept thinking that there is no way that I would like this store, but I was wrong, and I think it is great. The first time I went was during the middle of April and I was having a hard time finding some basic stuff like chicken and flour. I was able to score both of them at Lidl that April day. Since then I have been to this store many, many times, and I am a big fan. I suggest you check it out. I'll share some of the items that I now purchase from them on a regular basis. I get lots of cheese from them; they have good cinnamon rolls and stuff like that. I get their chicken and chopped turkey. All in all, I am very happy that Lidl moved in so close to my parents. I do a bunch of my shopping here as I think it is clean, quality stuff at good prices. read more

Remember the Bloomingdales in Garden City that became a Sears ? How did that end up ? I give this store 6 months. What a disappointment, though I did snag some pre COVID 19 quarantine tissues and TP. Blech read more

Really solid store. I initially had low expectations for it. Do we really need another supermarket in plainview? Also, it's pretty small. Are they going to be able to carry enough to make it worthwhile to come here? After a couple of visits, I've changed my tune. They pretty much have whatever you need at really good prices. Good quality too. If you're looking for a lot of brands, don't come here. But if you need a few versions of every type of thing you'd buy in a supermarket, it's great. Way less overwhelming than the other options. I expect this will be my go-to unless I need unique items or specific brand. Follow-up review. I've now been here about ten times. I love it. The employees are so personable and fantastic. They're thankful to work here and will tell you that. A pleasure all around. All the negative press is silly. If you need groceries, you will like it here. read more

Until I entered this store, I had never heard of it or been introduce to one. Lidl Stiftung & Co. KG is a German global discount supermarket chain, based in Neckarsulm, Germany. They operate over 10,000 stores from what I read. From my short first visit, I noticed that the one could purchase groceries at low prices without having to buy a major quantity. They also offer a small assortment of clothing and other products similar to what one would find in a Walmart or Target chain stores. It seems they have many private label products to offer which is similar to a Costco and other large wholesalers. I am surprised that a store of this nature would choose a location like Plainview where you find high end grocery stores. But it will probably do well because of their low prices. read more

I've seen this spot have many different grocery stores..from FoodTown, to Shop Rite, and now Lidl. I was only in the store so far for a brief time. About 10 minutes. The store is neatly organized and there are some name brands that I noticed and not just Lidl brand. The name brands that I did see were Oreo (Nabisco) and Foldgers. I'm sure they carry more name brands but I wasn't in the store long enough to explore. I will say that the store is clean and organized. I had asked an employee if they had something..although she didn't know, she still found out for me. The employees all have a headset to communicate with each other directly. I feel this is a very efficient way to help customers right on the spot. Prices appear to be very reasonable. I wouldn't say I would do my main or weekly shopping here, but if I needed to pick up a few things, it would be my go to spot. read more

I'm not really sold on the place yet. I mean, if you do most of your shopping here and get to know prices and try their products,then I guess it could be good but every time I go, I feel like I can't find everything I need. Also, for some of the name brand stuff they do carry, it's not a bargain.For that purpose, I only go occasionally. The man at the self checkout was very nice and helpful. read more

I recently checked out Lidl since I was under the impression it's similar to Aldi and I love me some Aldi knockoff brands and awesome prices. While Lidl tries to be eco-conscious and encouraged you to use the app for savings instead of a store card, the app doesn't appear to save you THAT much money. They also charge for bags. Paper bags. Plastic? I get that. But paper? Since when? The store itself is beautiful and spacious considering its inventory is on the limited side. Their bakery smells great and they have a nifty bread cutting machine. Their produce section is massive but two sweet potatoes costs around $2 and at Target 6 sweet potatoes cost $2 so. They don't have many "knockoff" brands here, which is fine, but don't charge more than the average store for brands I can buy elsewhere. I saw a laundry detergent I regularly use and it was $2 more than Target sells it for. Perhaps I was under the wrong impression of this place and thought it would save me some money, while unfortunately it did not. My first promo was a coupon to save $10 if I spent $50 or more. I hit $50 pretty quickly and I only bought a few items. Their meat section was lacking. I needed pork for a recipe I was making and the selection was very limited. Plenty of chicken products, though! Tons of chicken, in fact. The self-checkout lanes were empty and I soon understood why. The system is slow and you cannot pack as you go (an employee explained this to me). Instead you must scan everything and leave it sitting in the packing area, pay, THEN start bagging. Slows the entire process down, tbh. The store is fine for some basic essentials but if you're coming here to save money, you won't. Still a good alternate shopping experience if you're sick of Target and Stop & Shop, though! read more

I'm sorry, but this store is a complete mess. My dad and I went in for 4 items. Nothing there makes sense. We go to check out and only 1 register open we waited 5 minutes for another register to open the line was going into the frozen aisle. read more

I've written several reviews about this store. I was actually one of the first 20 customers to go in and shop there when they opened. This is my last review as I have moved to Florida so here's a summary. Most folks who shop at ShopRite or Trader Joe's will be disappointed. This store is what happens when John's Farms marries Dollar General. It's hit or miss to be exact. You'll find an item you love and then it's gone forever. I loved going in grabbing some coffee or maybe something else like smoked salmon but that's about it. They do have an expensive milk and eggs and assorted items in the middle of the store that you might find something good I actually got a great vest. I recommend you check it out but definitely you won't be able to do a full shopping here for a family. Very few brands besides their own. They do have some good body soap but it's not that much of a discount read more

I'll be honest, I don't go to lidl as much as I thought I would - HOWEVER - whenever I go, the food is fresh, and the savings in the app are pretty good. The one thing I really don't like is how backed up the lines get, for self checkout or going to a regular cashier. Other than that, it's been a great addition to the neighborhood! read more

virtually every lidl branded item i've ever bought here is just awful. Latest head scratcher ... bought the seafood boil in bag. Supposed to have shrimp, snow crab and mussels. IT ONLY HAD SHRIMP! What kind of pathetic quality control do they have?? Guessing there is none. If i ever return, i'm just buying milk, eggs etc. read more

Two thirds grocery store One third Sears. Strange combination but it works well. This being a German company where gas is so expensive I guess they figure that selling tools and clothing and gardening implements might save you a trip somewhere else. I don't know how that is going to work out here in America especially in Plainview but if you ignore the Sears side you will be pleased with the grocery part. As said in previous comments by other Yelpers you are still going to need a larger store with more variety but you will be able to buy very good quality at great prices for many items. Also many different items not found in the larger stores. Lidl almost has a Trader Joe feel to it. This is a clean well lit store with helpful employees and ample parking. Check it out. read more

Some things here are very cheap but you need to sign up in an app. Good for milk and yogurt. But only one girl and one register open on weekdays read more

Food tastes extremely gross and horrible which can be a ripoff. Not an American supermarket. Lidl supermarket has a very bad reputation.

Find their produce is not great and always overpriced. I found when they first opened the concept was interesting and the prices were very fair, but as I go I find the prices getting higher and higher and the selection getting smaller and smaller. Only go when. they are running good sales. read more

My wife and I went to the new Lidl here in Montgomery Village. I would not waste anytime going to this store! AlDI is superior to Lidl. We tried the so called sourdough bread, not at all tastes like sourdough. The jelly donuts were all dough and maybe 1/4 of a teaspoon of jelly! If I am in need of a ladder I will go to Home Depot! If my wife needs a dress she will shop at Montgomery Mall! The prices are higher then Aldi's and the parking lot is a death trap! I almost got run over by a crazy lady leaving the parking lot! We like Aldi's much more! PS. If you want great sourdough bread go to Wegmans! They have an excellent Organic Sourdough! In addition if you go to Lidl's park far away from there parking lot! The spaces are very small especially if you own an SUV! read more

Well, everything is not great quality wise. Some prices are very good some are terrible. As for value you have to pick and choose from odd ball items and there meat dept is a joke compared to other L.I. supermarkets. This company might flight in a less food oriented area but not in Long Island. Too bad because we need a discount supermarket. read more

Constantly out of advertised items, employees do not seem to care. I recently went there on the morning of the first day of the sale and insisted on talking to a manager. After awhile someone came out and explained they never got any in, I asked if it would be in later this week and she told me she could not gaurrntee that it would and then showed me in the circular that all stores may not have every item listed. read more

prices are higher than nearby supermarkets and not even brand names. Can't find any help in the store

Place is clean and prices are great. I've tested similar products with lidl brand and most are better with less salt or sugar and still tastes great. They have an app that helps save even more money. The meats are fair priced or less and it makes me happy saving money on food shopping. I used to spend $180 a week everywhere else and now my week spending is from $80 to $100 with everything on my list. read more

Very disappointed, never go there again I felt I was in a dollar store . Empty shell and no brands . Horrible.

I must first say Aldi is 1 block away. The proximity to the State store is my last ditch effort for food when I am exhausted. The produce is always hit or miss. The store brand pizza is the worst pizza I have ever purchased. I am not impressed. read more
