The neatly stacked boxes of fresh produce outside the door drew me in immediately. Inside there is a fairly big Halal meat counter with lovely cuts of meat on display. There were a few other shoppers in when I made my visit, perusing the shelves of spices and picking up fruit. Some of the stuff I have never even heard of, to be honest, and it was a bit of an education for me. The staff do seem to be friendlier than the norm and asked if there was anything I needed help with. I didn't even realise this shop was new, but I hope it does well.

They have a huge range of fruit and vegetables, spices and rices. A little bit more unusual is the fact that my friend comes here for her cosmetic fix. Coconut milk is the only thing that she puts on her skin and tells me that since using it her skin is the best it's ever been. It's also allegedly very good for your hair so she slaps it on as a night time conditioner. I'm yet to try these tips for myself but I keep meaning to so next time I pop by coconut milk will be first on my list.

Probably added yet…read moreanother stop on to their journey via the supermarket on the way home, or phoned a takeaway when they got in. But no more! For now there is a Tesco Metro at Glasgow Airport and it's wonderful. I mean, wonderful in the way that only a Tesco could be (which is pretty damn average, if I'm being honest). I actively avoid shopping at Tesco as I find the experience too depressing, but I can't hate this one as it is so damn convenient. I'm a pretty organised person, and I'd arranged for our groceries to be delivered by our preferred supermarket (not Tesco, that's for sure) when we got home from the airport. Downside being that the delivery slot was 11am - 1pm, and our flight got in around 5.30am. So in I popped to tiny Tesco, grabbed a few essentials and headed to the check out. This store doesn't exhibit the kind of Tesco efficiency you might be used to, and you'll probably have to self check-out. No big deal though, because soon you'll be in a taxi on your way home having spent £30 on potato scones, rolls and bacon and feeling well smug about your impending breakfast/brunch and lunch. Note: yes, the prices do seem steeper here than your average Tesco.

But Tesco prices were fabulous- to give you and idea, I bought: crisps 1 pound, oatcakes 1 pound 9p, and some buns at 1 pound 65p. My carrier bag was a pretty strong one and cost me another 10p. There's a 20% VAT which cost me a whopping 18 p. You can also use your clubcard and earn Tesco points at the airport Tesco. All in all, if you need something at the airport, start here.

I mostly go in here before or after work, when this is the only shop nearest the biggest Hospital in Europe they must have a good lot of custom from Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, you would think they could be more organised at peak times. This morning I was in at 08.15 there was a queue of three people in front of me and by the time I was served about ten folks behind me there was a Chap at the checkout querying a price and it took two of them to eventually sort it out. I asked the Manager if he could open another till and he told me he would when the Girl had counted her float, surely this should be done before the shop opens poor organisation. I am still happy with the goods they supply but it can be a chore to shop there.

This particular Lidl is a fair size & when I visited after work one day it was surprisingly quiet, which made a nice change to my regular visit to Morrisons post-work where I have to strap on my armour & metal capped shoes to prepare myself for the inevitable mobs zig-zagging the aisles. Honestly, you would think some people have never been in a supermarket with OTHER PEOPLE before the way they act. Sheesh. Pure trolly rage man. Nae trolly rage here I am happy to report - nice wide aisles and, as I said, it seemed quite quiet to me. Yas. I was specifically in for fruit & veg and was happy to see a good selection of both on offer although not for as cheap I as remember Lidl being when I used to shop regularly in the store a few years ago. Still I guess all supermarkets have put their prices up somewhat in recent years. Bah. I spotted the odd deal - it was luckily for me cheap aubergines so I was happy being a lover of those purple fleshy beasts. I was saddened there were not more offers on but maybe since I was a regular Lidl shopper they have stopped doing so many? As you walk in this store they have to the right a huge shelf of all their 'fresh' bakery products, I say 'fresh' as I presume they are fresh at 8am but not so at 5:30pm...still quite a few items on sale & the crossiants/pastries all looked lovely but their faux Krispy Kreme style donuts looked a bit worse for wear, one even delightfully had a bite already taken out of it, mmm...try before you buy, eh? S'nice. The meat section here was a lot more well stocked compared to other Lidl's I have frequented, although I noticed a distinct lack (not rack) of lamb. Still plenty of great meat & fish bargains - I spotted two salmon steaks for a mere £2.69, pretty good. All in all this Lidl was really well stocked and although maybe not as big as some of their other Glasgow stores it had a good variety of produce too. Only tiny, minute grumble I had was when at the till they had none of their Bag-for-life type bags for sale; it was only cheap carrier or more expense insulated & super strong bags available. I should have brought my own (especially considering I seem to buy a new one nearly every other time I visit a supermarket & have a plasticky mountain of them in my flat) so my fault really. One thing I must point out about here is when you have finished packing your bags on their 'packing bench' and the rear of the shop don't do what I did and think you are being ever so helpful and take your basket with you to put back in what I presumed would be a stack of them near the entrance/exit of the shop as they are, as I rather embarrassedly found out, alarmed! So if you try to take them out the first set of exit doors a delightful alarm sounds. So, as I was told, just leave them on/near the packing bench. Okay. I know now....*cringe*

Unfortunately, apart from the petrol station (which used to be a shell) and the associated fuel saving (which is soon due to end) there's not much to be positive about with this store. I do like the chilled food section which has doors to keep the items cooler (and the surrounding isles at a good temperature) and it does have a cafe, clothes and a decent amount of items, but it just isn't cutting it with me. I love shopping in my local Coatbridge Tesco, but this branch never appears to have good deals, maybe it's just me but I never find any deals suited to my taste and the pricing doesn't compare well to the long established competition, in my opinion. I do like to pop in every so often to see if I'm missing out on anything, but so far I've yet to get that wow factor.
