When we heard here of the prevalence of the "Chip and PIN" system here, we were super worried and braved awful ATM fees to withdraw cash down the way. Per Chase/British Airways: "Further, customers in the United States traveling outside the U.S. are not required to obtain a PIN. Merchants in Europe (or other countries) are required to: - Accept all cards with magnetic stripe - Honor all cards bearing the Visa/ MasterCard brand mark if they accept MasterCard - Accept magnetic stripe as well as chip cards, even in markets that are evolving to 100% chip card local issuance You should urge the merchant to insert the card into the terminal and follow the prompts. The terminal will automatically request a signature. If the merchant insists on not accepting the card, please call us at the number listed on the back of your card, to report the merchant name and address. " The folks at the store were very nice and may have been scared by various tactics used at the outset of Chip-and-PIN stuff (see the Wikipedia article) into refusing our card, but apparently it's a legal no-no, and we'd like to prevent other visitors from having to go through the rigamarole that we did.

Eurasia caters for everyone and specialises in all things Sub Continental, Far Eastern and African. It's very reasonably priced and great staff. For food there was a narrow range to choose from.

It's very hard to criticise a place that's great value with mostly quality food. That said I only…read morebuy a few items here - for fresh I go for fillet steak, pork fillet, chicken breast and pork mince (5% fat). So all meat is from Irish farms and I believe the quality of Irish meat is always excellent. The fillet steak is 32 day dry aged. Most steak in the USA is wet aged which is cheaper and produces an inferior product. For frozen it's their Greenland cold water prawns. They are again wonderful quality and taste. The last day I was there they were selling snow peas at 49 cents a bag and 500gm of red grapes at €1.29. Wonderful value for great produce and they often have real deals on fresh veg. So I bought a half dozen of each. The new normal is that you may have to stand outside a while as numbers are now limited. This is ok in an Irish summer (which this year is lousy). They provide hand sanitizer on entry. The only other downside is that they don't have many check out staff so again you can queue there a while too but it's the rub of the green here as the prices are so competitive.

It is all reasonably priced as well, in fact most of it is cheaper then the near by big supermarket! The displays are so appetising and appealing, the produce is always clean and vibrant and not bruised and battered, no limp lettuce here! It stocks a huge selection of in season fruit and veg, most of it sourced locally. As well as salad vegetables, dried fruits, nuts, seeds, it offers a Mediterranean selection bar of olives, sun dried tomatoes, sauces, pesto, oils and cheeses. A healthy deli section of cold cuts, cheese and spreads. A dried food area of pasta, noodles, rices and the like. Lots of pulses and beans and different types of flour and grains. But my favourite bit is the rich, sumptuous, organic HEALTHY chocolate bar selection! The owner is very friendly and works in the store and is seen polishing his apples and carrying creates of fresh produce which arrives daily! This place really does deserve its two Bridgestone awards!

It's nice to know where everything is no matter which one you might happen to go into to grab whatever groceries you need.

It's an asset to the town and makes shopping very enjoyable as the ambience of the shop is so lovely now with the renovations!

There are constantly long queues at the checkout. Usually only one register is open with a huge line of people waiting. Sometimes there are two, but only when it's extremely busy. The staff often seem gloomy and unwelcoming, and the whole place looks messy and unpleasant. In general, Lidl seems to be getting worse and worse. Other supermarkets now have self-checkouts that also allow you to pay with cash, which makes life much easier. Here, you often can't do that, which is frustrating--especially when you want to send your child to buy something and give them cash. Honestly, I can't stand this store anymore--neither this one in Bray nor any other Lidl. The only reason I still end up here sometimes is because Aldi doesn't have the same bakery selection. If they did, my foot would never step inside any Lidl again.
