Seafood
Jillene W.

So I finally decided to check out Lidl. And unfortunately, I was a bit disappointed in my experience. When you first enter, you are greeted by beautiful flowers. I really enjoyed the floral section and the flowers are pretty affordable. That was certainly a plus. The overall layout of the store is a bit confusing. The produce area is messy and dirty. There were so many things on the ground, and it should have been swept up and kept neat. The bakery section had a variety of baked goods, but most of the items seem to be sold out or they look like they've been sitting there for a while. Most of the items are private label but you can find some national brand items there. The store overall is huge with plenty of space, it feels like a bougie Aldi. Would I go back here? Possibly.

Zero complaints. Convenient enough for me to come in & pick up what I needed. A lot of employees around ready to assist. The place was crazy busy but the store was still well maintained. And the macadamia but cookie I tasted myself with was yummmm... just needed more macadamia nuts but for $0.89, I couldn't go wrong.

Reminds me of an Ikea. They keep costs low with less packing, less inventory, and wide aisles and covers on the freezers. But they were out of the sale items, no wateelons when I arrived and carts all over the parking lot. While somewhat cheaper on some items, brand name items were about the same. Come for the store brand.

If you're used to the European Lidl, don't come here. This place is like a knock-off Aldi but arranged even worse. All the products in the aisles were just thrown around, nothing was arranged nicely. I went in around lunchtime and I think it was me and two other people in the whole store. The prices aren't anything special, I honestly walked out without buying anything. I would skip this place. It's a shame because it's a huge space and it could be better with a huge makeover. The only pro is their bakery section looked really nice. It's on your right as soon as you walk in. They looked like they had some good desserts and even breakfast treats.

Loved this place, one stop shop. Prices right and tons of stuff. Staff so helpful and friendly. They have some clothing, house stuff, tools, appliances, even a cool portable pizza oven. They have products from Germany too. I walked out with lots of items. Love it!!!

I ready enjoy shopping here whenever I'm in the Union NJ area. Their quality, price and selection is great. I have in my own neighborhood in Queens an Aldas, Trader Joe's, Stop & Shop, BJs and Costco yet I'm excited when visiting here. My favor items are the freshy baked bread and the weekend specials. I love the bread cutting machine and the advertisement booklet for next week available on my way out.

Scabs!!!!!

Stick to the Staples like the fresh breads, bakery, veggies, and some meats. Don't buy any tools, clothing. lidl in murica is not the same as Europe. But the fresh bread are almost as good in quality.

Never thought of getting a welding helmet at a supermarket before!

A new great choice for discount groceries! Interesting selection of food items, some of which are not found in a "traditional" grocery store. Kinda weird to have such a wide rotating selection of hard goods! I wonder how many welding helmets they will sell! Haven't seen a reason for the negative reviews. I guess some folks are just looking for a reason to be offended! Store can be messy as I think it's understaffed, but I see the same at Aldi! Check it out for yourself!

Big lines at Lidl
Dana O.

Went on Friday around 12. Waited on line for 20minutes to get in. Still was a decent amount of people inside so was glad to see they were limiting customers. They were out of some things but fully stocked with essentials like eggs, Mille, orange juice, bread. Many of the special items were out. Long line to check out but you don't have to wait for self check. Staff was friendly and helpful. Prices so cheap. Will definitely be back here to shop again.

When I first visited Lidl when it opened I was not impressed. However, the store has been improving every since it opened. They now have a sizable section of organic produce and organic dry goods at great prices. They often run sales. You can find grass fed beef and organic chicken and wild caught fish here. They also sell organic eggs for $3.29 and a gallon of organic milk for less than $6. I am hoping they can add grass fed dairy to their repertoire as well. It would save me a trip to Whole Foods or Trader joe. If you read labels to find healthy products you will love Lidl. Many of their products have simple and healthy ingredients, ones you can pronounce. For example they often use turmeric instead of yellow coloring. They have a nice selection of frozen foods including frozen fruits and veggies. Lots of cheap and tasty pizzas too for those nights you don't want to cook from scratch. You can get canned goods and pasta for less than a $1. Their prices are low, they have many European options and their store is never too crowded. Happy to have this store in our area. Also in my opinion this store is way better than Aldi.

I could really give them a stellar review, or, I could give them a poor review. But, I'll just say, I keep coming back to them, and I don't why. It could be the people who work there. Could be the overall atmosphere of the building itself. Could be the array of items offered (albeit very inconsistent). Could be the small crowd of shoppers. Could be seeing the same faces of shoppers and staff who you become familiar with over time. Could be the convenience because I live fairly close by. Could be the available parking. Or, it could be a number of many other things. However,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I keep coming back. I don't think I'm a glutton for punishment.

As for all of those who gave a negative review, shop there over a longer period (at least 3 to 5 years, or longer),,,,,,,THEN give an assessment. Because,,,,,,,,, just like a marriage, the longer you stay with it, the more you'll know......and once you go through the good and bad,,,,,,,,,,,YOU WILL KNOW.

I even signaled through a window in a door adjacent to the meat department employees, but they just went about their butchering. So the lesson learned is, they don't even TRY to sell the stuff they have in the showcase; it just sits and sits until someone finally regains consciousness on their staff and sells it to some poor, unsuspecting soul.

The ShopRite of Garwood is ok I feel like my son and daughter in law use it because it's close by…read morebut it's not their primary supermarket. I went with my son and out of all the ShopRite's that I have been in I felt that this place had very poor organization. What is printed in the flyer for sales is not always available and when you order for a pickup the care is not put it to your order and often you just don't know if they will get the correct more often than not there are many items just not there. So as I said we look at ShopRite of Garwood for a quick stop for certain things because it is close by often hoping that it will work for us momentarily and my son and daughter in law very busy working parents do at times order a pickup order at times but they cross their fingers hoping each time that the order will be delivered as they had placed.

(2) Pre-cut fruit many times is near expiration. I stay away. (3) Getting very tired of my brands disappearing and being forced to use "Bowl & Basket" brands.
