I have never seen anything as pathetic as this store. They have all that space almost no actual groceries, and half the store is large bins of QVC junk. I was honestly SHOCKED that this place exists and that the town hasn’t kicked them out
Heavy whipping cream bought today, 5/7, w expiry date 5/21, spoiled....ruined the complicated time-consuming sauce it was meant for....No Words
Good store but very limited on certain items but the essentials its and in price cant beat it
Clean good $ does not carry certain items. But still worth the trip
Lidl does not have a lot of name brand variety, but has many of the general items needed. Yes they have no sushi or a large variety of Boars head meats/Cold cuts. They do have enough fruits and vegetables to put on your table for dinner. All items are reasonably priced.
Jeffrey is the rudest cashier I have ever encountered. All the Mums were labeled $3.99 on the outside shelves and when I took it to the register they rang up $4.99. Jeffrey yelled at me that I did not know how to read and that it was only $1 difference. Thankfully another employee came over and completed the sale and apologized for his behavior.Jeffrey also screamed that he hopes my plants died. I do not stock the shelves or label the prices.Maybe Jeffrey should be kept in the back unloading trucks and stocking shelves at night instead of dealing with the public.
First time in this store. Shelves were well stocked and prices reasonable. Cashier greeted us, was friendly and efficient. At the end she wished us a good evening.
This ultra discount grocery does not belong in upscale Westhampton Beach. NO PEPSI ONLY COKE! Almost NO name brand items! NO LOW FAT or Popular ICE CREAMS! No MAXWELL HOUSE only FOLGERS! NO barbecue chickens! Are we in a detention camp?Can we make a trade for different grocery chain? Trade for Stop and Shop?
I am happy Lidl is in Westhampton Beach. I stopped by over the weekend and picked up a large amount of groceries for a very low price. Ignore the entitled citiot reviews. Lidl had many varieties of eggs, caged and free range, also good beverages, and a nice selection of cheeses.
I loved Best Market as much as the next person and was disappointed to hear it had been bought out, but Lidl is not the travesty people are describing. Its spacious, clean and well-organized with wide aisles. The produce section is good with reasonable prices on basics plus salad mixes and convenience items like chopped mixes for soups, pre-chopped fruit, etc. The meat section, bakery and dairy areas are decent. There are plenty of snack items for kids and adults.The selection definitely feels weird at first, to Americans used to having loads of options in terms of brands for canned goods, ice cream, condiments, drinks etc, and to having them available all the time and not seeing changes in inventory. I couldnt find Hellmans Mayo but I did find Dukes, which is good stuff that is popular in the South. I found fancy crackers I had never seen before but no Carrs, and nice imported Italian tomato sauce but no other option. That sort of thing. But they had Daves bread, Chobani yogurt (though not much of it), rainbow carrots, Tates Cookies, fresh pre-sliced deli meat, and decent cheese. I was able to find plenty of things for my visiting young nieces and nephews, and basically everything I needed to make dinner.In other words, its a perfectly good place to do your main grocery shopping. So, honestly, its a change and it will take some adjustment but the change is not all bad. Its a clean, well-run store with all the basics, some interesting additions and high-end stuff, and good prices. Its not the end of the world.
Rude employee (Bianca) & a useless manager who did not care at all. (6/29/2022)
,I want Best Market back!! How in the world did this Lidl thing win in the free market? Two stars because their sourdough bread is pretty good (and cheap).
I was pleasantly surprised by Lidl. I liked Best Market but i welcome an european touch. I am not crazy about well established brands, e.g., Smuckers, Pepsi or Boar head. I missed Bon Maman but the german marmelades are decent and inexpensive. I love access to German Pielsen or Wheat Beer at 1$ the large bottle and different types of wurst so that you can have the right combinations of wurst and beer. Excellent croissants at 50c. Excellent arabic bean coffees from Guatemala and Colombia at $4 are unbeatable; no comparison with Folgers or other big brands Good Seed bread is heavenly for toast and sandwiches. Very good prosciutto; I dont miss Boarhead.products. Good selection of cheeses. I dont mind frozen fish as normally I freeze the fish anyway when I get home. If I want oysters and real fresh fish, I go to the fish market. As an Argentine, I found the meat I needed for barbecue and the skirt steak was more tender than at Best Market and half the price. I found all the vegetables and fruit I needed; If I want real fresh Boston lettuce, I go to the East Quogue vegetable market. I miss all the different varieties of apples at Best Market but LIDL has Honeycrisp, which we like the most. And blueberries and other berries are there at excellent price. If I need an American supermarket I have Stop and Shop, King Kullen as well as Costco nearby. If I want to over pay, I go to Citarella. I had a super full cart at the end and I thought it would hurt $500 but I ended paying $250. As a recently retired physician, I appreciate the good prices.
Great experience today with polite and helpful staff. Stock and produce was plentiful. Very happy experience
In German and Yiddish, Lidl (pronounced Leedle), means song. And like a song some will like it and some wont. It all depends on the shopping experience one prefers. Well be back for many products, but will look elsewhere for deli foods, fresh meats, fresh seafood, and poultry.
This Lidi is amazing!!! I love shopping here.
I see a bunch of negative reviews from stuck up individuals who expect a supermarket to tend to every single need of their daily lives. Sorry, this is your typical grocery store with your everyday items. If you want a ultra-perfect grocery store, take the hour drive to a Whole Foods or something. Or if you are so desperate for discounts, go to Walmart.
I got a mailing of a “$10 off your purchase of $10 or more” in big letters. I needed $15-$20 of groceries so this was a perfect way to get acquainted with Lidl. Before I left I decided to read the fine print, so small I couldn’t read it with glasses and had to get a magnifying glass. There it says I have to purchase $30 or more. Really??I then called the National phone number and got the “that’s what it is” answer.I may try Lidl in the future but only if I’m desperate and it’s the only choice.
Was there any market research done by Lidl before purchasing this location? A few tips for you Lidl. Worst meat department ever. No butcher ? This is Westhampton Beach and you dont sell packs of pre made hamburgers or chicken? I guess you think no one BBQs here. Tip #2 Sell local produce from local farmers. Have you not noticed all the farms and farm stands? Save the individually wrapped vegetables for NYC. TIp #3 Get a deli and seafood department. Tip #4 buy a book about the history of the east end, farms and fishing made this area. Try supporting them.
Lidl pronounced Leedle. I hated it at first. Good prices great on dairy .can not do a weekly shopping. Pickles excellent products from Germany & the Netherlands.Great for goodies, cookies etc & spices Employees very nice
I just went to Lidl for the first time. It is a substantial downgrade from Best Market. I’m not a big reviewer, but felt compelled to post something. If your sales pitch is “Try it! It’s not as bad as you think!” you’ve already lost.The age-old expression “You get what you pay for” could not be more apparent. If there is any upside, the local small businesses should benefit as a result.
My first experience at Lidl was complete disappointment. Weird, haphazard layout, basics that arent carried, out of stock on staples, packaged produce, and on and on. This should never be the only option in a town. Its not really a full service market. Its really an oversized corner fill-in store. Awful!!
Fantastic store, great products, nice fresh vegetables. Very nice Prince Edward Island mussels at a great price. The employees were very welcoming and greeting people in the parking lot. A+++++
Nice store, well stocked and helpful employees. As a life long local, I see no issue with the store or their staff and hope they continue their good work.
5 stars just because this store annoys the locals who think theyre better than everyone else.
Decent prices, quick in and out, staff were friendly and helpful.
Great store 1/3 the price of stop and shop
Absolutely horrendous. Bargain bin prices for terrible products with little selection.
Nice and expensive Market with most everything you need and very friendly staff
NY Strip Steaks still had 10 days till they were past their freshness date.When I opened them, I thought I would VOMIT. Anyone else get bad steaks ??
A Frankenstein store- imagine bits of BJs, Aldi, Trader Joes mish mashed together. Good prices with a very limited selection. Okay if you need something in a pinch, but not a one stop shop. We will be going to Riverhead or Eastport or ordering on line for most of our groceries. A significant amount of space is devoted to seasonable items which is just odd.
This is a discount / warehouse supermarket with no name brands, no prepared foods, lots of frozen and processed foods. This place is the WORST and such a disappointing downgrade from the previous market. We will have to shop elsewhere , go to Riverhead , what a pain !
Ive been to this store a number of times and everytime had to go elsewhere to complete my purchase list..Good prices on fresh produce and baked goods but is missingessential food items..
What a massive failure to understand customer demand to put this here. Someone should reach out to Citarella and tell them thousands of Best Market customers are waiting in Westhampton. Might as well have put a Dollar Tree there.
This store is a disgrace to WHB its like a Communist store out of Cuba if they cant save 10 cents sorry you cant have it. Only one or two brands thats it. The whole place is in disarray one isle vegetables then flip flops and note books. The worst store I ever saw.
I love Lidl. Best value on the Island. You have to get over the odd setup and dont expect national brands, but the quality is there for the most part.
No a great selection of goods. The new layout is a little confusing but you can navigate around and try to find something similar to what you want. Not always what you want though. I will say that they have a wide variety of things, from tools to vegetables .
Re Jims review - Jim, you might want to, oh I don’t know, actually shop there before commenting. 🤦♂️90% generic brands and since parts of stores devoted to clothes and pots and pans not much selection and what’s there not great.
Is this some sort of practical joke? West Hampton Beach needs a Citarella. Whomever decided to replace the old market with this clearly doesn’t know a thing about the Hamptons. Comical. FYI exactly no one wants LIDL brand foods.
Not enough name brands. No fish dept. Meat is prepacked no custom cuts. No slice to order deli . No Boarshead or Thumanns. Not my store going forward.
Its a cheap place to get your essentials. Never gotten something that looked poorly made. Very clean store.
If a Dollar tree and a Bronx Bodega had a baby it would be called LIDL
Cant figure out if this is a grocery store or a five and dime place!
Okay for picking up a quick item or two.
Not crazy about it. Dont like that the produce is already bagged. No deli counter. Very confusing set up. I rather travel to stop and shop in Hampton bays a real supermarket.
What can i say other then this store is a disaster. Why is it here in whb i will never know. You cannot do a shop here .mandany of the .eats or fosh ate expired or xlose tp
Really great if you want to find absolutely nothing you’re looking for!
Poor quality and selection. If price is your only criteria go to Costco. If not, go to the local Farmstand’s. Big disappointment after Best.
Super disappointing to come here and find this. maybe a quarter of the selection of what was at Best Market? the store has huge aisles and tons of wasted space. super hard to find things.
I don’t need a trumpet I just need Heinz ketchup, Oatly and Tostitos. Fresh made sushi would too much to ask. #bringbackbest
Just try something different for a change...No pepsi or maxwell house?? What a big deal...Its a European discount store and am happy they are here as a fresh trade mark itself
I bought fresh fish today in West Hampton. Unfortunately the package said use or freeze by the 14th. Today is the 15th. Awful.
Dangerous go there. for 1 item buy $ 200 food and
Knock it down and start over. Y’all left us without a store in our town for a year just to put this here ?? everyone I know will never go back there and will continue to drive 20-25 minutes away to Riverhead for a better grocery.
Horrible store - no butcher, no deli counter - only pre-packaged off-brand items. Please bring back a real community supermarket!!!
I though it was a nice store. The prices on most items seems close to most grocery stores, some items were.
This place makes costco look like a Whole Foods….an absolute disgrace to the WHB town. This place will not be around for longer than a summer.
They have horrible selection
I just dont get it. Odd brands. Mismatched food sections. Only frozen seafood.
Amazing prices and great quality!
I hate this grocery chain, stay down south we’re they have less appreciation for high quality food.
Some good prices, but no kosher meat.
Out of stock or not stocked at all overall weird vibe. Only go there if I have to and thats rarely
This is an absolutely boring store. I’m starting a petition to bring back best market #bringbackbest
Great place if you love groceries!
I miss Best Market, this store is confusing. Im not a fan
As the Grandson of the person who created the Supermarket Industry. This is not a Supermarket.Very Disappointing.
Pretty weak selection tbh. Didnt even have brownie mix. So sad 😓
This store is out of place in the Hamptons.I miss Best Market already!
Great customer service and deals. Also alot of unique finds.
Feels like food shopping at a gas station. Such a shame for the local residents.
I wish I could do no stars. Doesn’t belong in the Hampton’s. #BRINGBACKBESTor at least ANYTHING else
Not fresh products, cheap, and i miss old store.
Cant find any popular brands so I left with nothing. 😒
Poor selection, limited fresh produce.
Good pricing. Limited selection.
Best grocery store in the area.
Prices & Quality food combination! Outstanding
Good stuff for great prices
The beginning of a new era of shoppingThis is the future

2022-06-30Lidl, in Westhampton Beach, is a lovely place to shop. The variety of items is super not to mention the good prices. Catherine, the store manager, is knowledgeable, professional, customer focused, and a problem solver. Her employees show the same attributes.

2021-06-01Best grocery store in United StatesIgnore the nonsensical reviews decrying the lack of Pepsi (tho I imagine you already have). Lidl is the second main grocery store in Germany (slightly better than its larger rival Aldi) and has adapted its format very well for the US market. High quality products at very reasonable prices but you don’t get 15 brands of ketchup. Well guess what, I don’t need 15 brands of Ketchup.Like many folks, I plan to do my weekly shop here on the way back into NYC from WH which over the summer should save thousands of dollars.

2022-05-19Really nice store.Reasonable prices.I am trying the Lidl brand of products, I have not been dissapointed.

2021-12-05How is this the only store without self checkout?!? If you are not going to offer self checkout, please schedule cashiers appropriately. My cashier was HOURS over her scheduled shift and the ONLY cashier open, that lines were wrapped around the aisle. All the manager could say is they were shorthanded and let her get yelled at. How about the manager hops on a register if there is no other help available. Also how dare they tell any employee they are not allowed their breaks or a lunch and they are not allowed to leave until someone else shows up. Lidl you are a grocery store not a hospital or fire department. This is not only your store. I know that it is also the same in other stores like ShopRite. Maybe you could get employees if you stop abusing them and stop letting them be abused by customers.

2021-05-28Is Lidl as great as Best Market? No. Is it the worst thing that’s ever happened to Westhampton? No. Sure, they don’t have a lot of name brand products which is understandably frustrating. However, I think the food they have there is pretty reasonable for the prices they have. I will say that I do really like the low prices, and friendly staff. It’s fairly organized and the checkout counters are modern. It’s encouraged my family and I to branch out and try new brands that we haven’t before, and we were presently surprised. For most of the name brand items I need, I can go over to Walgreens to get stuff like ice cream, drinks, etc. They also have a lot of organic stuff which is good as well. I was able to find high quality organic eggs and milk with no problem, and tasted amazing. I don’t think it deserves all the hate that it’s getting, but there is definitely still room for improvements!

2022-05-01I dont care about the self checkout.This place is amazing.It has everything I need all the time

2021-11-06You will notice less people shop here now, best market was a lot better. but I tried shopping here until I bought bad meat and bad yogurts, both at the same time and still within expiry date. but two rotten items within expiry date only makes me think that they do not re stock properly. I hope I am wrong, but I am not shopping here anymore.P.S they did refund me no questions ask when i brought the bad meat back. but when i got home and opened the bad yogurt, its just not worth it to go back.

2022-05-23Good prices but poor selections. Lousy produce, meats, and no fresh seafood.
Review №10
2021-11-25Lidl is one of the best brands in Europe stores. Excellent pizza from Italy,amazing tiramisu and especially the bakery section is nice compared with pricey bakeries around! Store doesmnt have the presentation of other way more expensive stores but what you want? Cheaper prices for meat,oil,water,bakery and many more or fancy stores w fancy prices? I shop every week there and was happy that they have branches in Riverhead,Patchoque,Shirley to name few. What I don t find here I will use other stores more probably the Riverhead area has lots of options...including cheaper gas!
