  • "I was in the Santry Lidl store recently and I was there for the very first time purchasing my lotto tickets for the weekend and when I handed one of the store assistants the lottery tickets that I purchased he hadn't any idea how to put the tickets through the machine that I purchased as the lottery machines in Lidl are different to the ones that any newsagents and other supermarkets would have and he had to call over one of his work colleagues to show him how to scan the lottery tickets that I purchased on the machine and I also handed him two tickets that I won 2 free Daily millions Quick Picks on from a previous lotto draw that I did the lotto for and when he did scan one of the tickets that had one of the Daily millions Quick Picks on only one of them printed out for him and the other one didn't print out of the machine for him and then he had to call a work colleague over to his till to serve me as he hadn't an idea how the lottery machines worked and his work colleague wasn't very helpful with dealing with my situation as I demanded that I got my prizes that I won from a previous lotto draw that I did my lotto for and then the situation got to a point that the other store assistant that served me spoke to the security guard who was on duty at the time I purchased my lottery tickets for the weekend and collecting my 2 free Daily millions Quick Picks by denying that I hadn't won anything on the 2 printed tickets that I handed to her to check for me and she kept on saying that I didn't win 2 free Daily millions Quick Picks and then the security guard asked me to leave the store when I demanded that I got my prizes that I won from the lottery and then eventually after waiting more than half an hour to be served I finally got served properly by a different store assistant who believed that I was telling the truth about me winning the 2 free Daily millions Quick Picks and she had to go back and forth to a checkout that I won the 2 free Daily millions Quick Picks on and she had to print out 2 of the tickets for me as the ones that had the prizes on said invalid ticket and throughout the half hour or so I was in the supermarket for I was very agitated and frustrated while I was waiting to be served properly by a store assistant as I wasn't too pleased with the store assistants and my customer service in the Santry Lidl except for the one who believed that I was telling the truth about winning the 2 free Daily millions Quick Picks and I would like for this store to get better staff who knows how to log into the lottery machines in Lidl in Santry and any other lidl stores around the country that sells the national lottery as the staff in Santry Lidl aren't great at serving the customers the lottery and they need to stop denying that the machines aren't working when they do be working and it's not fair that I had to wait half an hour or more to be served the lottery by a store assistant or anyone wishing to purchase the lottery as people should be served in a fair and polite manner rather than being sweared at over an issue which isn't their fault at all and having to wait half an hour or a long period of time to be served the lottery that want to purchase the lottery"

Lidl first opened in Germany in 1973 and then in Ireland in 2000 and has nothing to do with Aldi or Aldi Sud (South)as it is known Aldi Nord (North) is the relation. Anyway end if history lesson. Do at your peril confuse this shops with poor quality this is far from the truth its value value value and great products. There is no excuse for not eating healthy anymore and these shops have saved many families from hardship. They are social miracles. We all have choices now in this country remarkable when you consider where we were in the 80s. I love these shops especially the tools and other man stuff they have or as my wife puts it "Man creche" My dog Teddy loves Lidl too.

  • Allina z

Ridiculous customer service. I wish I could give less than one star. Today I went there and I got some groceries. After paying I noticed that one of the product was not sealed and the box was opened. The lady who was working on the till told me to exchange which I tried but I could not find the same product and I got a similar one and I told her that I would pay the difference. Then she asked me to queue up again and I did for quite long and when I got there to exchange the product she told that wouldn't be possible. So incompetent and rude

  • Caitz

I went to this store over the weekend and I have to say, customer service is absolutely amazing. Had an amazing lad called Michael assist me the best he could. So polite and friendly. Although he had overwhelming customers, he kept a smile on his face and continued to do his work. It’s an amazing gift to have, being able to do your job whilst under pressure. I’d recommend this and I hope Michael gets the recognition he deserves.

  • Michal Kowal

Typical Lidl place with lovely stuff. Good parking with wheelchair accessibility. Trolleys take 1/2e coins. Inside plenty of space and not too busy (except weekend I guess). Good choice of fruits/veggies/legumes/greens. Really recommend the place as the prices are decent and they have good discounts every now and then (check their website). Recommend.

  • Cleber Morais

Very good supermarket. A lot of discount products and great deals. Just be careful with some deals, because they might be next to the expiration date. There's a large section of household items, some with nice prices. The cashier are very fast! Also, bring your own bag (you can buy here too, but what's the point of save money and then spend in bag?)

  • Maureen Mooney

Easy to find what ur looking for beautiful fresh flowers& plants that dosent break the bank the meat is very reasonable priced & it's irish meat you wouldn't put any other meat on ur plate at home,got a lovely chicken oh so juice y staff went out of the way at checkout helping me I,'ll be back to Aladdin cave for more bargains through the week

  • stephen moss

Good shop a really good sized lidl store With loads on offer plenty of bargains in the food and special offers department the tools can be hit or miss but the wooden childrens toys are always great quality. unfortunately it can be difficult to get in and out of the car parking as that side of the shopping area is very tight

  • Adam “AdamsonIE”

Not a pleasant experience, hard to get any attention form any staff member as they taking about private matters on the head sets all the time, great quality product as Lidl always have out sie from F&V that is rotten moste of the time due to lack of chill unit and very high temperature over the fresh stock.

  • Antoinette Foster

I dont normally shop in Lidl but,as it was close by yesterday I dropped in. We only needed 1 or 2 items. There is something missing from this shop that I cant quite put my finger on. It lacks atmosphere, the shelves/baskets were very untidy. Also, I dont find the staff as friendly & as helpful as Aldi

  • Stephanie Power

Good shopping experience. Produce fresh and tasty. Quite a good variety of fruit & veg. Can sometimes seem a bit cluttered or 'busy', maybe due to narrow-ish aisles?? Very friendly staff which makes it a warm supermarket,something that has been lost over the years with bigger establishments.

  • Sandra Ennis

Generally a really good place to do your shopping. The prices are competitive andcthe staff is mostly helpfull. The only nevative part is that it happens wuite often that the food is out of date or just about to expire, however is still on the shelves for a full price

  • Tony Shanahan

Great store with very helpful staff. Good discounts the hour before closing. Never too busy and quick to open a till if queue builds up. App is also great for more discounts. Customer service are quick to address and resolve any queries in a fair way.

  • Catherine Ross

Restocking took up too much room. Eg boxes and trollys Perhaps do it at night. I felt place was very impersonal. Turnips were wrotten. Till guy just kept shoving my stuff. And i a pretty fast packing. Customers are humans.

  • Kiran Deep Kaur

Wonderful store with weekly offers.Suits to all.I feel good while visiting Lidl with a very reasonable prices of products. Bakery, clothing ,kids toys and garden section are all amazing.Love to visit it and its worthwhile.

  • Ashish Dha

Cheap prices and decent selection of items. Won't have many things that aren't very mainstream in Ireland though... For example I couldn't get nutmeg or allspice powder, cornmeal, active dry yeast, or taco shells. …

  • Eduardo Baez

This store has minimal staff. Two persons on the till with one person by the entrance playing on their mobile. You're better off going next door to M&S to do your food shopping, as there is limited items on the shelves.

  • Catalin Tulbure

Very busy, few tills open as usual Tesco has same prices now on loads of products but better quality I noticed recently. Overall lidl goods store but not for filling the trolley at the end of the week!!!

  • feargal o'hanrahan

It's a different layout to every other store, but staff are nice, lots of room to get around...have to say quality of food in lidi is getting better, try fitfoods if looking for low calorie, tasty food

  • Alan McCabe

Staff not very helpful, I asked a female member of staff where I would find a certain item and she just pointed and said " down there " and walked away. This was not the first time this has happened

  • fedaa marouf

Lidl is great place to do your main grocery shopping. However, there are some products such as chicken, herbs and fruits, which are better to be bought from somewhere else. Lidl still my favorite.

  • Darragh Comiskey

Get what you need, can be a bit hit and miss for regular items if you like cooking veg and fruit go off/turn quickly I have found and its not as cheap as they claim ,if your stuck it will do

  • giuseppe avella

Great place for food shopping. Often offers and discounts. Weekly promotions. Products close to the expiring day are with 30% discount. Not really crowded as the others in city centre.

  • PAUL Mc

A great shop for your food all you need under one roof. A good location to major bus routes plenty of free parking outside if you need it.The staff are all very nice. A big thumbs up.

  • Mícheál Ó Maol Domhnaigh

Same as usual....noticeably smaller total at checkout than expected. Again, as usual, there are a few items that they don't carry so I will have to go to another supermarket as well.

  • Fergus Hoare

Checkouts poorly manned not sure if the management are tuned in regarding number of checkouts open really need self service or basket only tills staff are always lovely to deal with

  • Lea Brčić

Great prices, great product selection - you can also find products such as pumpkin seed oil, which are hard to find anywhere else. Best of all - wide range of delicious chocolates!

  • Muna

Good supermarket for daily shopping. May take you a while to get to know the products but then you will like it and see the huge different in the prises to the other supermarket.

  • M McQ-P

I bought a 4 pack of Jam filled Irish Donuts today ... Oh My Giddy Aunt, the 1st donut and the last donut, were the only ones that had JAM. LIDL LIDL LIDL ... Where is my JAM ???

  • William Ffrench

Could improve with encouraging more adherence to social distancing and wearing of covid19 transmission preventing masks, including the staff. Otherwise great value as usual.

  • David Peel

I visit my local lidl today its a good store but I did. nt get my first time discount of 5 euros because I was told it expired a little sad about this won't sleep tonight.

  • niranjan nargide

As usual Lidl manages to fulfill customer expectations by providing good quality items with less price. Also thet have really nice mid aisle items for shopping this week.

  • Claudette Shepherd

Had a big variety of things. Difficult to find things though and it will either take a lot of time or more than 1 visit to be able to know what is available in the store.

  • Gerard Byrne

Not good. Overcharged on two items which were marked clearly on your shelves at 1.99 each. I was charged 2.49 for one and 2.99 for the other. Got no satisfaction.

  • Joseph Rock

I was in here over Christmas and it was really busy. I got through the tills fairly quickly. Keep your eyes open while parking your car, it can be a bit tricky!!

  • Jenny Thomas

Very spacious store with lots of food choices at very low prices. Every week there are other household items you may get cheaper and Electrical/useful goods

  • Gautam Surya

A spacious hypermarket like most of the other Lidls'. It's very close to Omni Shopping centre, Tesco, KFC, McDonalds and many other restaurants and shops.

  • Ian Kavanagh

A very big Lidl that is always empty. There is a large amount of parking and ample room inside. It looks like every Lidl does but is larger than most.

  • Joe McCann

Bearing in mind I was only getting a few bits and pieces, the experience was as enjoyable-if that's correct word- as all my other visits to LIDIL.

  • Actual Counterfactual

Personally I go for Aldi every time, I find them to have better quality products. But Lidl isn't too bad and is certainly cheaper than SuperValue
